This is great. I looked at many that I think could make one laugh or would get me more votes here, but in truth the one that I'm most proud of is not as popular as I thought it might be. So I am going to do the nefarious deed of deconstructing (and perhaps ruining) it here:
Tucci caches Czech
Stanley Tucci retains Hanks character Viktor Navorski. The national origin of this character is actually kept vague, but "former soviet" is a fair assumption. (Hanks was doing Russian tinged with Bulgarian accent)
Tucci caches Czech --> Tushy caches Czech --> Tushy cashes Czech --> Tushy cashes check
Inspired by the phrase, a kind of bar-room brawl starting pistol: "Your mouth is writing checks that your ass can't cash."
Having not seen the film, I don't get the 'cashes' bit - but I'm voting for because it's clever |

Kokoda
This is in some ways a straight description of the film, but it highlights a major 'character' - the mud. |

Shampoo: Beatty in permanent heat.
Beatty plays a very straight, very horny hairdresser. Being constantly horny he is in 'permanent heat'. The hairdressing play on 'permanent' is the icing on the cake.
I expect to see this one rise in the chart so much that it will make your hair curl.
Anyone named Marcel is obliged to vote. |

I'll offer Ladies Room
Ok so I took liberty with this because to my knowledge it is not in fact about the ladies restroom, but couple the title with star John Malkovich, and you get "Peeing. John Malkovich."

Well, some of the action takes place in a ladies restroom. Although it represents purgatory or something I suppose some peeing is required. I fell asleep during a late night TV showing, so have no idea how it ends. |

I'll go with this review of Breastfeeding Your Baby: A Mother's Guide. While 13 votes is good for a review that has never been in a FYC or MIHAI, I just love the simplicity of this review.
(The only ones here that I hadn't voted on before were from Chazbo, Sal, Sludge and the Whipp. Thanks for this opportunity to vote on them!)

Ok only two I hadn't voted on beofore and only on I voted on.
I'm trying to go through a Quality phase and that applies to voting as well. This may affect my vote returns but I just thought it would be better to let you know.
Here's mine. |

This is a fair stance - I never vote on a review that I don't like out of patronage - but I did vote on yours! |

I just like what this one says when compared to the smiley-faced aspect of the actual movie. |

I like this one because it makes me think of head of state, I think it's a little clever which is rare for me.
I thought of it and was supprised it was not already there.
Had already voted for most of the reviews posted here.
