Howard Sterns Private parts was better than I expected because quite frankly, I thought the book had too much information. But the film condensed it all into one, funny bundle. It also shows how outside of his radio life, he is just like everybody else. But in his radio world, all bets are off. Comedy gets into this film by showing what happens when Howard defines authority and his bosses responses. Some of those moments are sick, but they're also funny. True, it's sad to see Howard's relationship with his wife seeing as he is now separated from Alison (in real life), but it's still true to itself, and gives great entertainment for the audience at large.

Fmovies: Let me get one this one item clear to everyone: I was not a Howard Stern fan before this movie and I am not a fan of his after this movie. However, this is one of the best autobiographical movies I have ever seen. It is thoroughly enjoyable and it shows that Stern is really just a normal, family man and his "other" persona is all schtick. I had serious reservations about watching this movie but after I did I was very happy. The basis of the movie is that if you believe in yourself, set goals and work hard you can achieve those goals. Now how can that be bad?!? A rating of 9 out of 10 was given. A final word. This is not an endorsement for Stern, but give this movie a chance. There are some very funny scenes and a most excellent story to be told.

I detest Howard Stern and viewed this film under protest. Surprisingly, I found it to be my favorite American film in some time.

Whilst the movie is based upon biographical material and many of the principal characters play themselves, director Betty Thomas does a marvelous job of creating a fresh feel of taking us behind the scenes. Equally surprising is that Stern allows his warts and ego to be on full display. Private Parts, in its own way, is a far more trenchant essay on the state of the American entertainment industry than The Player or Network.

Private Parts fmovies. I was working as an usher at my local cinema when I first saw this movie, so I saw it quite a few times and it seemed to get better with every viewing. The story is of American disc jockey Howard Stern and his rise to superstardom. It has a great script with good scenes especially the one through the end titles.

This film documents the life and times of radio talk host Howard Stern. While his younger years are displayed in a hit and miss fashion, the years concerning his radio heyday are nicely done. He started out as a local d.j., merely spinning records and doing weather. Becoming bored with this format, he chooses to do a more spontaneous show which causes trouble with his employers. When he reaches the top of the pile at NBC, his antics become even more outrageous which catapults him to enormous fame. Vulgar, but very funny. Go on and watch it.

This gem of a flick is the great Rockyesque story of shock jock Howard Stern's rise to fame and infamy. I was thinking this film was gonna really suck going by a lot of the movie previews prior to its release, but I was sorely and happily mistaken.

The film is perfectly structured, perfectly written, and it's absolute travesty that Howard wasn't nominated for an Oscar for best actor! Here's what the Oscar nominees shoulda been for this film: Howard Stern for Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay.

Private Parts also manages to take a fresh approach on the old "woman having a noisy orgasm" comedy scene. Yes, this flick is one of the few cases where the movie is actually better than the book. Over, out, and all that jazz.
