Reno 911!: Miami (Unrated "More Busted Than Ever" Edition + Digital Copy) [DVD]
K**A
The Lost Version Rocks.
There is more to this DVD than first meets the eye. Not only to you get the Digital DVD to download the movies on the DVD into your IPOD, but you also really do get a "LOST VERSION" of the movie! Since all the other reviewers have chosen to review the original movie which is also on this DVD, I thought I'd give you a run down of the "Lost Version." In the "Lost Version" there is a huge extended trip across country, where you watch the Reno Sheriff's Department stopping at a scad of different road-side attractions. There are more scenes of everybody partying in Miami. There is even a quasi-Lesbian scene with Wendy Covey and Mary Birdsong...but you don't see any skin and Wendy Covey leaves before anything happens. You also see more of the "love scene" between Thomas Lennon and Kerri Kenny-Silver. Junior's adventures with the underage Asian girl and also covered in more depth. I could go on and on, but to sum it up, the "Lost Version" is COMPLETELY different from the movie shown in the theaters or the Unrated Version (which is also on this disc.) It really is NUTTIER and NAUGHTIER than the movie theater version (just as the DVD cover proclaims.) It's a completely different movie! Now here's the catch. If you don't watch the movie in the proper sequence you will keep watching the Unrated Version, which is also on this DVD! I'm not sure if Thomas Lennon and company deliberately did this, BUT the "Lost Version" is HIDDEN (more or less) on the DVD. The trick is that you go to the "Intro to the Lost Movie" section on the DVD Menu and click there. Then WATCH the Intro! Do not fast forward through it. Watch the entire Intro and when it is done click on the "Lost Version" movie BENEATH the Intro. Be warned, if you simply opt to click on the "Watch Movie" option, you will continue to get the original hilarious movie released in theaters and then later re-released in unedited form on the Unrated Version of the film. So if you already have this "Lost Version" DVD and think you've been "ripped off" because the movie is the same...well...that's the orginal version on the DVD. Remember there is a "Watch Movie" function which will keep on giving you the Original Version and NOT the "Lost Version." Once again, in order to watch the "Lost Version," you must go to the "Intro to the Lost Version" and then watch it, then click on the "Lost Version" movie to get it. If you chose to click on the "watch movie" option, all you will get is the original movie. You can tell you've got the "Lost Version" because it doesn't have virtually any "Hollywood" style music or staging. It looks like a much longer "Reno 911" episode with the television-style music. The "Lost Version" is actually better (at least I think so) than the original version. According to Lennon's introduction, they really did loose this film and were forced to release the other version. I'm not sure if this is true, but it is completely different and way more risque. I'm probably not the only person who discovered this really cool feature which explains why this DVD is sold out almost everyplace. Fortunately you can still get it from Amazon.com...but they are going fast here as well. A final clue as to what the Lost Movie is like...if you watch the original movie and see all the strange outtakes at the end of the movie, like the "Go back to Cuba" scene...those are all originial scenes in the "Lost Version." In otherwords, they really did make TWO different versions of this movie. Whether it was by accident, (according to Lennon, they LOST the first version in the editing room) or by design, the "Lost Version" is definitely worth having. You see way more of the Sheriff's patrolling Miami, and way less of the "Drug Lord" story highlighted in the Theater/Unrated Version. Get the "Lost Version" before it disappears. (No pun intended.) Oh yeah...you also get to see more of Jones and Garcia in this version. They are two of my favorite characters. To sum it all up, the "Lost Version" is completely different from the Unrated Version, but it's also sort-of-hidden on the Disc. But thanks to your's truly you now know the code to see the new one. Remember, in order to see the "Lost Version" of this movie you must have the correct "Lost Version" DVD, which is the one advertised right here and then click on the "Intro to Lost Version" prompt and watch the Intro, then click on the "Lost Version" movie. Then sit back and enjoy a completely different, completely hilarious different version of "Reno 911 Miami."

Hilarious raunchy spoof of the reality TV genre
Reno 911! was a hilarious TV series on Comedy Central. They decided to turn it into a movie and amazingly it worked. It is a great, raunchy laugh at the reality TV cop genre.All the main characters from the TV show appear including Lieutenant Jim Dangle (Thomas Lennon), Deputy Travis Junior (Robert Gen Garant), Deputy Trudy Wiegel (Kerri Kennedy-Silver), Deputy Raineesha Williams (Niecy Nash), Deputy Clementine Johnson (Wendi McLendon-Covey), Deputy S. Jones (Cedric Yarbrough), Deputy James Garcia (Carlos Alazraqui), Deputy Cherisha Kimball (Mary Birdson), and Terry (Nick Swardson).The plot is that the Reno sheriffs are invited to a police convention in Miami. They show up and find out everyone is infected with a deadly disease and they need to keep law in order in the city. As usual, they have no idea what they’re doing. This leads to one hilarious scene after another. One is that Jones and Garcia are called to a house and find an alligator in the swimming pool. The neighbor intervenes and says that they have to treat the gator with respect. It turns out there was another gator in the pool who eats the man. Another time they find a whale washed up on the beach and have to get rid of the body. First, they try to roll it off the beach but Junior literally falls right into the body. They then decide to blow up the carcass but it leads to whale pots landing all over the beach hitting people. The movie is not just a series of skits like an extended version of the TV show. There's an actual story when the sheriffs find a criminal plot led by Paul Rudd of all people.One of the successes of both the TV show and the film was that three of the lead characters Lennon, Garant and Kenney-Silver were the writers. They really did an amazing job spoofing the cop show. If you liked the TV series you will love the movie. If you like the film, you need to see the TV show.
