Diamonds Summary Ths Funny And Touching Comedy Hit Features Kirk Douglas (oscar, Greedy) And Dan Aykroyd (blues Brothers 2000, Ghostbusters) In A Shining Cast Of Great Stars! Harry Agensky (douglas) Is A Feisty Ex-boxing Champ Who Shows That He Still Has Some Punch Left When He Talks His Son (aykroyd) And Grandson Into Taking A Road Trip From Canada To Reno, Nevada! There, The Trio Takes Up The Search For 13 Missing Diamonds That Harry Was Promised For Throwing A Fight Years Ago! With Sexy Jenny Mccarthy (scream 3, Baseketball) And The Legendary Lauren Bacall (the Mirror Has Two Faces) Adding To The Already High-spirited Hilarity, Don't Miss Your Chance To Come Along For This Trio's Wild Comedy Adventure.

In an effort to bond with his son, Lance (Dan Aykroyd) agrees to help his father, Harry (Kirk Douglas), a former boxer now hampered by a stroke (as Douglas is in real life), hunt down some diamonds he was given by a crooked boxing promoter but had to hide for reasons that don't exactly make sense. The three generations drive to Reno in a convertible (driving with the top down in winter, for some reason), where they win at gambling and decide to blow the money at a nearby whorehouse, where Lauren Bacall is the madam and Jenny McCarthy is one of the "girls." Lessons are learned, honor is regained. Every clichéd scene of Diamonds is written and played in such broad strokes (er, so to speak) that it's impossible to really connect with the characters; they don't have enough substance that you can grasp them as people. It's particularly difficult to watch Kirk Douglas--an actor who's spent his life playing thorny, galvanizing characters--being mined for cheap, easy sentiment. Get one of his older movies instead; get Paths of Glory or Out of the Past or Gunfight at the O.K. Corral or Spartacus or even 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, any one of which is a thousand times the movie Diamonds is. --Bret Fetzer
