“boring” long, boring, depressing, and not worth time to watch. i had to as it had been a gift that i was going to be asked about!
Adam’s Rib
“Just Too Great Comedy! “ I love this movie. I’ve seen more time than I can count and still have a great time with it. Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn follow up their comedy Woman of the Year with another great movie. Both husband and wife are lawyers and they [...]
Murder on a Sunday Morning
“Thrilling Documentary” This is easily the best documentary I think I have ever seen. Raw, heart-wrenching and unforgiving, this film speaks to the state of our nation as it pertains to race relations. We have a long way to go, but this film brings great hope to the issue; a must-see.
Step Into Liquid
“Have water, will surf” Man I loved this movie – it completely captures the passion of surfing, including the lengths people will go to catch a wave. I loved the counterpart/counterpoint, from Hamilton’s ultimate wave search to the barge riders in Wisconsin.
You can’t not like this documentary, the personalities of the persons [...]
Les Miserables
“Completely Absorbing Tale” This highly original film will draw you in from the first ten minutes, and leave you begging for more as it finishes. An unforgettable epic that straddles the storyline of the original Hugo novel with a 20th century twist and WWII background. The prison escape scene is heart [...]
Glory
“one of the greatest war films I’ve ever seen” This is one of those films with such a depth to it that you can see it many times and always see greater nuance in its message and characters. I do not think that I have ever been so moved by any other war [...]
As Good As It Gets
“Helen’s Mellons” Ok, admittedly a crass review title. Did get your attention though. Great cast! I’ve been crazy about Helen Hunt for years (despite Twister). She did an incredible job in AGAIG. Nicholson is a hoot as always. One of the best actors ever. Cuba Gooding Jr. also on [...]
Interview with the Vampire
“Another great Vampire movie if not the best.” “When I first hear about this movie a few days after Movie Theater, I was kind of sock. According to ppl they almost make biological stuff in their pants because of the fright of this movie. However once I was abble to see it I knew [...]
Quarantine
“Wow … pretty scary considering the possibilities.” I gave this 3 stars because i don’t enjoy watching a movie where the camera is constantly moving around. Movies like The blair witch project and Cloverfield i detested because of this, plus not only that … they were just stupid.
Quarantine is scary only because of the [...]
Two Girls And A Guy
“At least Robert Downey Jr was in it” I rented this movie solely because I love Robert Downey Jr. Right away I was irritated with the other two girls (Heather Graham and someone else I’ve never seen before). Their performance was terrible, some of the worst acting I’ve seen. Luckily I [...]
Against All Odds
“BLAST FROM THE PAST” Before ‘eighties became a cliche, it was considered modern and chick. This is a serious film from that era. It takes its time for the story to develop and for the dialogue to sink in. James Woods gives an excellent performance as a nightclub owner and a gangster. Rachel Ward [...]
War Dance
“African History in Making” It is a doco on horrors of Uganda internal affairs similar to too many other places of Africa.
No entertainment but pure historical testimony to continuingly fallen activities of the UN and “civilised world”.
Sixteen Candles
“Staple for any 80s movie fan” “Sixteen Candles” was the first film collaboration between John Hughes and Molly Ringwald and started a very profitable franchise for both Ms. Ringwald and Mr. Hughes.
Ringwald stars as Samantha “Sam” Baker, a teen who is turning sixteen, unfortunately for her at the same time her spoiled, indulged and [...]
Mr. Deeds
“Hilarious, with a heart” Yeah OK it’s Hollywood, it’s predictable, and it’s typical Sandler stuff. But so what; it’s also hilarious! Of course if you don’t like typical Adam Sandler humor then you may not like “Deeds”, but I just busted up laughing in many parts of this movie. And sometimes [...]
The Count of Monte Cristo
“too dull and boring” After is saw the 2002 version starring Jim Caviezel and Dagmara Domincyzk, which is my favorite movie ever, I was hungry for more. So I headed to my local library, and found this old tape hidden behind the 2002 one. I was overjoiced. The back says ‘A swashbuckling tale of [...]
