Last year, this movie was wildly popular among my friends who thought it was cute, witty, and absolutely hilarious. Myself, I wonder if they had all been high at the time. It was a bold try at comedy nobody had seen before, but in my opinion, it had fallen flat on it's face. None of the things you would think to be the center of this plot, actually were: any stress or social iscolation Juno experienced due to the pregnancy were subjects barely flitted by. In fact, she take the whole thing in a stride that's just all too perky whoop-de-doo for me to take seriously. Not even to mention the sound-track: an abnoxiously hippie acoustic band with nursery-rhyme schemes and beats that all sounded the same to me. So, maybe I'm just cynical or a little too dark, but suffice to say, I guess I just didn't get it. |

Tenebre was Dario Argento's first foray into the giallo genre after breaking away to do his Three Mother's movies. And it was a glorious comeback! Tenebre has the typical slasher movie plot...someone is murdered by a man who sticks pages from a famous author's book in their mouth and the author, who has just arrived in the city after the murder ends up having to help solve the crime. But this one is differentiated by gory, brutal, but beautifully set-up murders and a mystery that I dare anyone to try and crack. The music from Goblin is wonderful and, as stated before, the killings are gory, but have a surreal, entrancing quality that only Argento can do. Dario can make an art out of the brutal. This is Argento at his best during the apex of his career. If you're a fan of his, you can't miss this one! |

This movie is a guilty pleasure for sure! Raunchy and dirty and gross, but a total blast! Nathan Fillion is also WAY worth watching. |

I loved this movie, it is well done and very believable for the most part. The message is moving, all the characters are enduring, even the towns folk. You may want to keep this one and not pass it on. |

This movie captures and criticizes the 'cliquey' Christians out there while providing a very big dose of reality. Not for those Christians who can't take criticism, but fun for all others. |

The best way to describe this book is this: I'm a HUGE chick flick girl.... and I only LIKED this film. |

Two dramatic and excellent films packed into one case! I would have preferred less of Robin's gags be in them, but still fantastic finds. |

If any, this was the only decent of one the new National Lampoon movies. Ryan Reynolds plays his typical lovable but slutty type cast and Tara Reid is a stuck up journalist. Funny in parts, but mostly just something to have on in the background of a party. |

From start to finish, this Sandler film is predictable but sweet. Classic Sandler & Gang, starring Wynona Rider. |

For Adam Sandler fans ONLY! For those of you who gets tired of comedian's "schticks" after awhile, I advise you to only watch this in small doses. |

This is one of my favorite TV mini-series along with the sequel "War and Rememberance". It concerns the build up to and the beginning of WWII through the eyes of one naval family. The movie is well done, believeable, based on factual events. It is based on the novel of the same name written by Herman Wouk. Great cinematography. Covers the war from what happened in several different countries. |

The pinnacle of ultra low budget zombie movie sets. Contains 3 chunk blowers. Due to bad acting these are great party movies. |

A political horror movie that is predicitable. David Arquette should really stick to acting. The only thing worth while in this movie was the gore effects. |

Incredible footage. None of the films are about WW II (or any war). The actual title is: "Natural Disasters: 24 Intensive Films". It contains unedited footage direct from the national archives. For a full description, click on the "buy from Amazon" link. "These historical documentaries, selected by our film archivists, dramatically illustrate the awesome power of nature during the 20th Century. Natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, forest fires, and volcanic eruptions, assult and devastate our environment, change drastically the landscape of the earth, and affect the balance of our planet's natural resources. These random acts of nature have altered the world's economy, threatened and disrupted millions of earth's inhabitants, cist thousands of human lives - and at times changed the course of history" |

It is what it is; a Power Rangers movie. However, for all fans of the original cast - Ms. Jo makes a return! |

Smart and totally confusing, this film tosses you around, but lands you safely at an amazing end; leaving you with the feeling of "Huh, what a ride...." Unbelievable cast and very intelligent writing. |

Is it a kids movie? An adult movie? Whoever this movie is for, it wasn't really for me. Obviously a classic now, for it's time it was perfect. Watching it now, however, it's a little queer for me. |

This is a great movie! The music is wonderful and my kids keep asking to watch it. Grown-ups would love it too. |

The story is interesting to view but not as compelling of plot. Full of very flawed people. The best part of the film is the images. Seems like you could pull a beautiful still photo from any frame of the film. Definitely has the feel of intertwined short stories. Quality film. |

Beautiful film. The landscape is like a National Geographic special. The acting is excellent. Based on a true story of the Tibetan Plateau Mountain Patrol. In America over 100 years ago, the western settlers slaughtered the buffalo to the point of extinction for the value of hides. In China, it is the mid-1990's slaughter of a million Tibetan antelope. This is the story of the peasant volunteers' attempt to preserve the Tibetan antelope in the face of government indifference. Tradional aspects of Tibetan heritage are in the crossfire, yet again, as poachers annihilate antelope herds en mass with AK-47's. |
