An absolutely brilliant show. The second season began where the first ended, with much mystery. Suspense in most, if not all episodes and mystery everywhere. One that made me think and think again.

I think if you were to ask most JW's whether they expect a miracle cure because of their faith, you will find they do not. I know I do not.

Most Hollywood movies fail to capture the full range of experience of teenagers. This film demonstrates exactly how to do it right.

I am curious of what rifle Beckett was using in the movie, and also the caliber of the bullet that he was suppose to be firing.

He also made a comment in the final Sniper movie about the ... | Positive | null | null |

Ride With the Devil has something rich and special, if you can stand the slow development.

Heart pounding erotic drama are the words that come to mind when I think of "Secret Games". It becomes more erotic as the film goes along and at one point blew me away!

I first saw this movie in a theater in France a year or so ago.

This is a dramatic film in the whole sense of the word. It tells a tail that here in Greece we live as a routine in everyday life without realizing how sad it is.

I know it's crude, and I know that it isn't at all PC, but it's so funny.

Dream Quest was a surprisingly good movie. There were some noticeable goofs, but that can be expected in a movie like this that was made in such a short time.
