Tomcats has ‘em rolling in the aisles
by Daryl Pollak, reporter

    Laughing, hooting and hollering filled the theatre for the movie Tomcats, a new release of Revolutions Studios starring heartthrob Jerry O’Connell and beautiful Shannon Elizabeth.

    The movie starts at a wedding, seven years ago, of one of the guys in a group referred to as the Tomcats.

    The others say they will never get married and make a bet to put money in a pot, for investing into mutual funds.

    Whoever is the last single guy standing gets the pot which, when the movie fast forwards to the present, is half a million dollars.

    Michael Delaney, played by Jerry O’Connell, is a struggling cartoonist who ends up in Vegas during Steve’s (Horatio Sanz) wedding.

    While there, Delaney acts as a high roller to impress some spicy redhead.

    He ends up $51,000 in debt to the casino that is owned by Carlos, played by an unexpected Bill Maher from ABC’s Politically Incorrect.

    Now in money trouble, Michael must get the other last single Tomcat, rich wildman Kyle Brenner (Jake Busey), to settle down and get married.

    Michael then finds gorgeous Natalie Parker, a police officer who had a small stint with Kyle after one of the Tomcat weddings, to take on the task of getting Brenner to marry her.

    Michael then starts to have feelings for Natalie.
    This movie kept most people in the audience laughing until it hurt. The movie was very well done in contrast to other recent comedies.

    Tomcats is almost on the same level as the very popular Something About Mary.

    Men may want to close their eyes and just think about Natalie some more during the hospital scene as it has one of the funniest but grossest scenes ever that will make any man cringe.

    Kyle also gets a little gross in some scenes that will even make the women cringe or steam. Tomcats marks the directorial debut of Gregory Poirier, who wrote the screenplay for the recent thriller Gossip.

    Tomcats is a great film for anybody who wants a serious laugh, but not for the faint of heart or for children.

    Just bring tissues for the tears that will spring from the excessive laughter.
