Carl Hiaasen: ‘Star’ explores celebrities, scandal

'Star' explores celebrities, scandal

Satirist and author Carl Hiaasen chats with TODAY's Al Roker about his new book, "Star Island," which he says is a tongue-in-cheek nod to Americans' "hunger" for people who are "fairly inconsequential."

Hunger Games

Hated the premise but liked the movie. Love the characters, the acting, and the cinematography. Story was crap. But I liked it anyway.

Bowfinger

I laughed out loud and felt dirty all over.

Life of Pi

I saw Yann Martel's book, Life of Pi, done as a movie by Ang Lee, last night. I loved it. It adheres nicely to the story line of the book, leaving out only minor details. The casting was ok; no super famous actors in any role, except a cameo by Gerard Depardieu as the obnoxious ship's cook.

It was shown in 3-D; I normally would not have seen a 'serious' movie like this one in 3-D, but it enhanced the film and did not take away anything.
