402,457 | 453,228 | 72,856 | 6 | gave it a 6 | Low budget and stupid , but liked it . Sick humor and its a sick movie . I can watch it , but it has flaws due to its low budget . Viewer gets to see Stalone act in one of his earlier movies , and he is one of the more interesting characters in this film . Aka Machine gun Joe Vetaturbo who add humor to the film . Well rent it with some friend and you will laughf , but other wise its a stinker . |
402,444 | 453,228 | 82,418 | 6 | Better then the first , and third movies | I rented this movie after see parts 1 and 3 . This film is alot better then part one considering its on a higher budget , better acting , and it looks like they had more time to film and edit it . As a result , the acting , editing , and directing is less choppy . The mechanics of this film is done well , and a few scenes cause you jump . No surprises in this one , it is a done by the numbers horror film , better then most low budget films of the 80's . I give it a rating of six . |
402,423 | 453,228 | 101,453 | 6 | Not bad , but done before . | I went to this mob film with my dad . My girl friend was working and my dad jumped at the oportuinity , because my dad loves mob movies and my mom hates them . The surpirse in this film is Nichole Kidman poses nude . I believe she would do anything to be famious , and being early in her carrier before she met Tom she did it . I do not think we will ever see her do that again . The film starts out well with Bruce Wills in his cameo , but the rest is your run of the mill 20's mob story . Hoffman plays Dutch perfectly , and I like the small antics . The ending is great with Andy Garcia playing the leaning meaner Scillians who become tops in the food chain . Great moment but not a great film . |
402,398 | 453,228 | 267,913 | 6 | Boy did they make Fred into a dummy | A bit PCish , and that kind of destorts the show from when I was Kid . Despite that the character were close to cartoon , except fred . A good movie for the kids , and entertaining in general . Watchable , and interesting , but I feel a little bad for whay they did to Scrapy Doo . This film kind of tarnish a few childhood memories , but still a good film . |
402,495 | 453,228 | 329,101 | 6 | Spoiler and the winner is ? | Spoiler and the winner is ? I would say Freddy , Jason isn't the sharpest Machette at the camp site . If his IQ is 70 that's about it ; Freddy can talk , and articulate a plan . This is why the movie focused around Freddy . Freddy gets the worst at the end of the movie , but the not too bright Jason gets the brunt of it throughout . In this matter the film is comical , like Bugs and Road runner . ( all they needed was the anvil and hot air balloon ) The story is original with Freddy needing Jason in order to create fear on Elm Street ; and I never knew Elm Street was so close to camp Crystal . The crime stats must have been high for that state . Entertaining in a stupid way . |
402,644 | 453,228 | 94,791 | 6 | Not bad for a TV movie ! | This film is not bad for a TV movie . B actor Richard Chamberlen king of 80's TV mini series does a fine acting job . The casting is fine , and the shoot in Europe is excellent . Not as good as the higher budget theater released movie , but this is expected . The TV version has filler in it that drags the show on . Watch the newer one first . |
402,425 | 453,228 | 70,895 | 6 | Better than the Rocks | After watching the newer version , I decided to compare . I loved walking tall when I was a kid . Remembered some of it , but a few years back I caught it on TBS late night . WOW did this film age well ; nothing is better than a true story . My father , or someone I know says the movie is close too the books . Maybe that is why the story and film age well . Realism always lasts the test of time . I had to get some sleep and missed Walking Tall 2 , but hope to cath it on TBS some time soon . Thank you TBS late night from all us insomnia suffers , nothing is worse than info commericals , or old re-runs . This movie is closer too the trues story so I give the new Walking Tall the old 2 by 4 and give the old version a . I think the Rock could play a better bad guy . |
402,705 | 453,228 | 84,412 | 6 | Watchable | One summer I went to see this with my sister . Another early 80's comedy . Keaton when he did comedy , and had a carrier , made this film laughable ; Otherwise it would have died . Kevin Costner is in it if you look carefully , and one of Winkler ( The Fonz ) few movie appearances . This movie will surly fade away like many others , but not a bad one . |
402,463 | 453,228 | 81,455 | 6 | Good story | Good story for a horror movie , but the movie slowed down in parts , so I gave it a six . The concept is great , and the special effect hit the mark . The film could have used a rewrite or , maybe a better lead actor . Michael Ironside makes this film , and carried it . |
402,870 | 453,228 | 75,648 | 6 | Not a bad disaster movie . | Spoilers I remember watching this film with my sister when I was 10 years old . I thought it was cool how the plane submerges into the water . How they end it with the water rescue procedures is excellent . The heist turned into disaster was a good idea also . The movie is dated , but has an interesting story . I would like to watch some of it on late night again . Viewer thinks it a |
403,207 | 453,228 | 93,137 | 6 | Not the best or worst either | I saw this film with my dad when I graduated in 87 , and then we went to this Polish club where some old guy took a run at me and said you know what this mean and gave me three fingers . I never knew what the three fingers meant , but I sure remember the movie ! I expected much from this movie , and left the thearter disappointed . Average film at best , not bad , but not great . The final fight in the movie is intense , but with the direction , no one really cares or remembers the characters . I never forgot the evening , but I should have forgotten the movie . |
402,891 | 453,228 | 189,456 | 6 | Not bad | People will slash this movie apart , but its not that bad . I gave it a 6 , this movie is no scream , its done on a low , and the plot resembles other slasher films , except for a few very smart twists . The strong attributes easily out way these weakness , the acting is believable , the ending is great , and they achieved the late 70's to mid 80's horror feel the film went after . It's entertaining , and for a younger crowd , I will not watch it over and over again , but I did not waste my money renting it either . |
402,675 | 453,228 | 105,793 | 6 | Inferior version of Bill and Ted's Excellent adventure ! | I remember reading a MAD comic's version of Wayne's World , and it put my review into a nut shell . At the end of the comic , Bill and Ted have Wayne and Garth in a phone booth sent off into oblivion ; while yelling " you stoled our movie " . Funny , but the truth usually is ! Michael Myers , not the guy from Halloween , has written many comical hits , and if he leaves acting will probably keep on writing . This movie is made from a recurring SNL skit . The skit can be funny , but like the hosers of The Great White North Fame , it has trouble keeping a few minutes comedy skit into a full length comedy . Making something funny is the hardest form of entertainment , and this movie has more hits than misses in its antics . It will always be compared to the Classic Bill and Ted's ; not as good but watchable . ( especially good is the Laverne & Shirley skit ) |
402,569 | 453,228 | 114,478 | 6 | Watched the movie for a course . | I am taking a course at Athabasca University , and ' Smoke ' is one of the movies . I was told the movie is about stories and how they shape and fade like smoke . There are 6 characters and each sub story intertwines with the other story creating the movie . Each story like the character Auggie's photography around his store tell of the progression of time . As each story unravels the viewer sees a flat character develop into a round character , with complexities and dualities . One sees the camera pan in to close ups as the viewer begins to know each character better . The message of the Christmas story is the thesis for movie . If the Christmas story is true or not or exaggerated the main theme of a good story is to be entertaining and bring joy to life . This film does such . Entertaining 6 or depending on what mood the viewers in . Bad mood a 6 and 7 in a good mood . |
402,904 | 453,228 | 79,574 | 6 | James Bond meets Star Wars | Cashing in on the success of Star Wars this Star Wars type of film is the highest budget of all Bond movies ; and only one of two which lost money . The beginning was good , but the film is like a comic book story . Jaws is in this episode , he was only in two . I loved the space marines , but my wife found them farfetched , but this film stretches it so much why not . I would not call this a great Bond film . |
402,722 | 453,228 | 61,747 | 6 | does not age well | This film is from the 60's and you can tell this , by the evolution of acting and directing . The movie has a choppy feel to it , and looks dated . However , Bruce Durn has a great cammio playing a crazy cattle rustler . Eastwood has another strong performance , and the story underplays a 1960's anti death penalty message . Like the hanging judge form this film I have a verdict . . |
403,097 | 453,228 | 101,393 | 6 | 6 . 6 is about right | This film is not great , but not bad . Better than a I like the actors in this film . Very Ron Howardish , he make good films . The story is ok , but would I buy the video . No not a chance . My rating is |
402,743 | 453,228 | 75,765 | 6 | They show this film around every super bowl | Minor Spoilers . I watched this on A & E recently . Film making , and directing has improved over time . I found the pace , and story awkward , plus slow in spots . After anything is possible , and the James Bond stories do not appear as far fetched . Bruce Dern plays a perfect disgruntled ex-air force pilot . They cheer on court marshalls , divorces , and big game people , with 2 weenies and a coke is great . I work at the post office and this guy could play a disturbed postie . Anyways , back to the review . Robert Shaw misses a blimp with his hand gun ! No way , unless drunk at the time . The 2 best parts of the movie is watching those Steeler and Cowboy clips . Terry Bradshaw , without Alf , and Roger were great to watch , and the blimp come over the stadium was great . Just an average run of the mill film . For all you people who cheer the big game with a coke and 2 weenies I give this a . Good role by Bruce . |
402,591 | 453,228 | 372,784 | 7 | Strong start | Strong start of the film , but ends like all the other comic movies . I like the beginning of the movie . Who Bruce Wayne is . Why Bruce is scared of Bats ! How Bruce becomes Batman . The theme of when you go out to chase monsters , do not become one yourself is powerful . However , I hate using this metaphor , the ending is the same done it , did it before big climax . The formula has a change to it , but I believe the makers were looking for a different ending but could not just achieve such a ending . The epilogue at the ending leaves room for another film . I like the epilogue discussion of evolution and action and reaction . A thinking man's batman . I would wait for the movie on pay for view . . I did not like Katie Holmes , even with her small row for Batman . I can not reason why . |
402,725 | 453,228 | 546,132 | 7 | Security Cam modern problems | Not a bad show . Security cameras cause many problems . Is someone watching you ? What did you say about someone . Watching your parents making out and other endless possibilities involving security cameras . I hate to see what the supervisor would do with it . Obvious bad acting in order to try a save Hank and Brents friendship is the storyline when the security camera caught Brent talking him . When the camera caught Brents parents making out ! The viewer knows the camera had to be destroyed . American top videos for Security Cam . Watch it ! One of Corner Gas better episodes . The cop who want in the play is funny . Did not qet it . |
402,962 | 453,228 | 546,137 | 7 | A good show | The dad on the show is paranoid . I love how they take the theme of the shows isolation and paranoia for a small town . Of course the tax man is from the big bad government . The man is telling him what to do . The free coffee for the police at the dinner is hilarious . The two storyline merge together well and the silliness is counter balance with another character Brent who's logic cool down silly situations . Hank is good for a laugh . Another character Hank is the likable guy in town who is the brunt of the town's jokes . wheat field for this show . I just started watching it on Showcase . Rent the season at Block Buster or wherever . Worth seeing ! Corner Gas's just keep getting better as the season progresses . |
402,957 | 453,228 | 546,142 | 7 | Worlds biggest Thing . | I liked the Corner gas episode Worlds biggest Things . A better title would be worlds biggest Hoe ! The inside joke of worlds biggest hoe was played over and over . The town meeting etc were great to show the mundane , but entertaining part of small town life . I do not think I could live in a small town . Reminds me to much of the small squabbles at work . Back to the main point . Anyways , Dog River find out after they build the worlds biggest hoe , that some other town has a bigger hoe , and they got the second worlds biggest hoe . Where the residence go see and buy gas and nuts which is intended to bring money in for Dog River . A full circle story . 7 bags of nuts out of 10 . I did not mind this show . Watch it live it and be it or whatever . |
402,729 | 453,228 | 546,118 | 7 | Like Seinfield | I agree with the last guys comment . The show is like Seinfield . A lot to do about nothing . Bad and strange predicaments and how the lost characters deal with the weirdness . I love the flashback about the belt . The greecer hair and jackets . I bet the missing the Grey Cup due to lost tickets had to happen in real life . I been through missing tickets before . I would feel enclosed living a small town where everyone knows everyone . The dollar store jewelery prove such ! In the end , I wonder why they throung in the Lacy part of the show . Maybe a little real life there . People love gossip . I guess you have to be careful who you kiss . poges for the Lacy episode . |
402,731 | 453,228 | 546,116 | 7 | Big news for Dog River . | Brent and Lacy keep busy with cute sign slogans out side of there 2 places . People need there moments of fun to keep sane . Dad has a nasty trick played on him about his memory . Brent can be so evil . I guess the dad can be a jerk so he asks for it . Hank is so cool a poetic when he fishes . Did he sleep with her ? I guess that would be a small town worry . We find out Hank does not want to be known as the town slut either . I guess one can catch more than fish when fishing . I personally find fishing boring , but never hear of fishing like this . 7 fishhooks out of 10 . I would watch this show over . My birds like the outside shot of the show when watching Corner Gas . Did I write 10 lines yet . |
402,961 | 453,228 | 546,126 | 7 | Solid show | More of life in a small town . Lacy is having a hard time adjusting to Dog River's social life . I notice how Lacy way over dress for the towns life style . Very Toronto style clothing . No one likes her free class idea . The town wonders what's up with the free class ? Hank is Hank in this show . Brent is the only guy who understands the whole situation . 7 dogs out of 10 dogs for the Dog River show . I love the theme song . It took 3 days to find your dog etc etc . I wonder if they Facebook a lot in Dog River . A good show . Did I write 10 lines yet . I hope I did . Now I got 10 lines . HA not yet . Nope not yet ! Almost got 10 lines . Now I did . Ha Ha |
402,727 | 453,228 | 546,127 | 7 | Brent has no money ! | Brent has no money from buying a large screen TV . Brent tells no one so Hank will not come over to his house everyday to watch TV until 2 pm . A Signfield episode in Saskatetwan . A lot to do about nothing . Everyone listens to Hank's rumor about Brent being broke . The humor is where the town tries to help Brent out . Eventually Hank finds out the truth and Brent has people over watching pay per view sporting events on Brents new TV . I give ' Poor Brent ' a . A good look at small town rumors , and how such rumors start . I would hate have people over everyday until 2 also . Let us hope Brent get some sleep . I bet Brent would not mind Lacey coming over to his house . |
402,959 | 453,228 | 546,124 | 7 | Bad kid . | Bad Kid . Everyone knows one and no one wants to babysit one . Brent ends up having to babysit the kid from , and is having a hard time doing so . Hank's budgie story is hilarious . Hank's story scares Brent even more . Lacy can not help when Brent is overwhelmed by the task at hand . Brent's mom comes to the rescue . Using the voice and threat authority mom saves the day . for this show . Hank is good supporting humor for this episode . No one has a good thing to say about the kid ! I wish e could have seen him . Maybe not seeing him made the show better . Well I won't babysit after watching this show . Rent season one . Oh baby is one of the better show for season one . |
402,628 | 453,228 | 97,659 | 7 | I like this one . | Its fresh , exciting , and funny . This film after Blood sport made his carer . A simple story , but wow its true escapism and that's what action is about . I really like this one the fights could be described as incredible . A really memorable bad guy is in this film . Rent it . |
402,956 | 453,228 | 546,101 | 7 | null | How a rumor starts in a small town is what this show is about . I found you have a character like Hank who is crazy and makes crazy decisions we got a good story . Hank hears of Lacy's ex coming to town . A simple plain story . Hank deducts the ex is stalker , which is the reason Lacy moved to Dog River . In the end Hank's pretends to be Lacy's boyfriend . Funny concept , and is almost like a Sociology course on how rumors start . Brent is as usual the calming man of reason who provides balance for the show . I give My Ex's episode a . A very interesting , and funny show . Catch the reruns on Showcase . Corner Gas is like a University Sociology course on small towns . |
402,730 | 453,228 | 546,110 | 7 | A tie is a win . | Brent is such a good goalie that he saves the bad Dog River team from being worse . The rival team challenge Brent to leave the team with a bunch of endorsements . The story is interjected with a woman coach theme . Humor done Dog River style ! Brent stays with the loyalty of his town . The Dog River what's there name ties the game , which is as good as win for them . A decent story . 7 gas stations out of 10 . Hank is very Hankish in this story . Have I wrote 10 lines yet ? Nope I have not ! Now have I ? Nope I think they need a budgie as a regular character for the show ? Maybe a parrot ? I love the show believe I got 10 lines now . Darn not yet ! Yes and Cornor Gas rules . |
402,732 | 453,228 | 546,105 | 7 | Comedy | I go to the comedy club all the time . The person who wrote Comedy Nite knows comedians . I like how the comedian steals Brent's joke . Brent get mad when the comedian steals his joke . Comedians borrow from others all the time . Brent gets back at the comedian . Most comedians are on the road so long they forget what town their in . Brent told the comedian he was in the evil rival town . The comedian insults Dog river and we know the rest . Good show ! I like how Hank tries to be a in your face comedian . Bad at it , and way to insulting . The crowd chants we want Hank . Funny . 7 laughs out of 10 . I think watching this show I could never live in Dog River . |
402,734 | 453,228 | 546,104 | 7 | Sexual humor ! | Sexual humor . There is some sexual humor added to cell phone size in this episode . The episode Cell phone has the Constable , and Brent pitted against each other over who has the smaller phone . In the end Lacy tell them they got little Barbie phones . Feeling inferior both the constable and Brent get these huge vintage 1980's cell phones in order to prove they no longer need a small phone . I could never figure out why people want small cell phones . Small phones are too hard to use . I guess lacy is right . A for Cell Phone . I was surprise Hank was not involved in the Cell phone argument . I would go nuts living in Dog River over such crazy conversations . Reminds me of life at the post office . |
402,889 | 453,228 | 118,571 | 7 | Good acting | Ford and Oldman have strong performances , and the script is incredible . Unlike most action movies this film is fresh , and the Russian villains act as believable terrorists . Too bad Ford is not the US President , I would vote for him any day . The director , who did Das Boat , directs this film mechanically , and it is a pleasure to watch the mechanics of this film unravel . |
402,881 | 453,228 | 279,781 | 7 | sick humour | This reminds me of the 80's party movies . The characters were likeable people but sick . A lot of this humour could be described as offense . My wife and I like this movie ; we laughed all through it . It gave males an in depth into the female behavior . It's good for a laugh . It is not a serious movie . |
402,928 | 453,228 | 466,909 | 7 | On par with the original | Spoiler ! ! I rented the original first , before I watched the remake . I suggest not doing this ! The story is so good the makers could not change too much , and I would say watching one spoils the other . The directing and camera equipment are far superior to the 1976 version . The atmosphere was great . The icy ground at the coffee shop before the protagonist finds the truth at the cemetery resonates the harsh atmosphere of evil ! No one can out preform Gregory Peck for acting , but Liev Scrieber plays a good role of any character in a suit . One question why did the makers use a black German shepherd instead of a rottie for the one scene ? The young Damian is better than the original for the remake shows Damian causing fear amongst his fellow man , and the tormenting of his step mother . I just wish , I did not rent the original first . |
402,434 | 453,228 | 95,690 | 7 | Won't be on movies for guys who like movies | Won't be on movies for guys who like movies ! The antithesis for Magnum Froce . No Client Eastwood or Hal Halbrook in this film . Hey no one even gets killed . Saw this at my sisters former boyfriend house . Did not mind it either , than I saw it again years later , with by wife , on late night . My wife like this film , and I found it aged well . The acting is alright , but its the story that keeps , this action movie junkie , interested . The story reminds me of a few of the interesting conversation I would have with my female friends at the university . Funny how a jucie story can transend gender , age and other demographics . The end is a bit sappy , but it had too have a downer ending that would have killed this movie . I wish they had a litte more about the Pizza . Funny , right about this movie makes me want to order one . I give this film 7 pizza's out of 10 , if it is 2 for 1 then . Mike |
403,151 | 453,228 | 87,985 | 7 | The more I watch this film the more I like it | The first time I saw this film I did not like it , I thought it's unbeleivable , stupid etc . Many years later watching it on T V I changed my mind . It's a great concept , of what if a Soviet invasion of mid-america happens . The cultural differences between the 2 communists and middle America , or the heartland . Its nice to watch Jed's character , represnet the heartland , and how hard of a time it would be to take over a country where there is gun in every household , and alot of ex military , bushmen type of people around . You would have about as hard of a time pacifying America as the British did . In the end the movie boiled down the culture , values , and bonds of these people , that is what this films about more then how accuratly such a event would happen . |
403,231 | 453,228 | 757,750 | 7 | Good , but a little different | One of the first shows where the brothers go against humans instead of the supernatural . Benders storyline was too condensed for a one hour show ; a possible second part could have been warranted . The writers could have given more character development of the deranged farm family . The motive or build up of the family could create great story tension . Benders is a homage of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and other similar films such as Wrong Turn . Every time the viewer sees the chilling farmhouse , he or she can remember a similar movie / story with the vacant and lonely rural house . Dean and Sam show the brother's bond growing stronger with Dean going out on a limb to save his brother Sam . In the end the female officer lets the brothers disappear to carry on with their important mission . |
402,811 | 453,228 | 91,187 | 7 | Eastwood makes this film or it would break | This film would be forgettable , if not for Eastwoods performance . Eastwood is a strong actor , and the character he plays is made for this film . Its funny , exciting , and very military . Peebles , and one the combat scenes is too over the top . I guess this is for contrast in the film . I will enjoy watching this film a second time , and give it a |
403,195 | 453,228 | 258,153 | 7 | Satire of society | SPOILER ! ! I like satire , and this movie's satire of society is great . A director who replaces the human element with computer imaging graphics creates a rift in society . I never could understand why someone would wait 8 hours to see Harrison Ford , or Jane Fonda . They may be good at a trade , but doesn't mean poop for people skills . I might be able to paint my fence well , but does that mean I am a great person . This movie takes a kick at this . People believe what they see in a movie or in the public image the agent creates , it is not real . Just because OJ smiles nice for car rental commercials had nothing to do with the trial . He is trying to sell you something just like the actors in the film . Matlock may be a great show , but would you use him in real life , or is all mystery really that complex . Usually who did it is probably a lot more obvious . Everyone knows Simone and loves her , I think people need there delusions , but she is not real . They have a lady Di scene with an outpouring of grief . How can someone grieve about someone they never knew , who is the real person , and what is public image . There is a shot at Brittney in this film . I guess the euphoria of the public can easily be manipulated by the media is this film's message . |
402,539 | 453,228 | 266,697 | 7 | Stupid very stupid ! | Spoiler Be warned this movie is stupid , but entertaining . The director trying a comeback after the disappointing ' Jackie Brown ' does better , but seems unable to hit his zenith of ' Pulp Fiction ' . Slow parts of this film , and over the top violence hurt ' Kill Bill ' , but unlike ' Jackie Brown ' the story with over the top comedy makes this a watchable movie . I was disappointed with the ending , but I should have knowing with the term volume 1 that it would leave you hanging . I give this a . See this one before volume 2 comes out . |
402,404 | 453,228 | 97,670 | 7 | What Goes around comes around | This movie has the old saying , " What goes around comes around . " This movie shows how other cultures differ in their beliefs . You see that one's beliefs are accepted by one and rejected by the other . One will also see the hypocrisy of the culture . Things are okay to do as long as it is not in your own backyard or to your family . |
403,123 | 453,228 | 337,978 | 7 | Good summer movie | For Canada Day my wife and I had a retro date weekend . Like many moons ago we went to the KFC and then to an action movie . I enjoyed Dieharder . The story is interesting , while the stunts were over the top , and I enjoyed the doses of humor . Dieharder had computer hackers attack the US . Bruce picks up a hacker and the wrong place wrong time story unfolds nicely . I say right place right time for America . The bad guys are bad , and the good guy is solid . The solid good guy Bruce Willis adapts and overcomes evil encounters with over the top stunts . The jet freeway deal , the traffic tunnel and ending stunts were great . I love the ending . Willis's sarcasm in dealing with the stress is a great tension reliever . I liked when he talks to himself in the annoyed tone via the tunnel scene . The humor is done at the right time for the wrong place plot . The directing and acting meld together well with the above mentioned Die-hard formula makes Dieharder entertaining . . Worth seeing this summer . I wonder if this is the last of the 80's style action movies with Sly and Arnold out of the picture ? |
403,250 | 453,228 | 942,786 | 7 | A good show | A good show . I never would have guessed the ending . Dean and Sam try to stop a nasty spirit , and Deal with a frantic girl . The car is always cool , and Dean's cold demeanor give a serious style for this episode . The special effects of the farmer were great . Cool setting of the old farm House ; similar to 1000 horror movies . The ending is great , but I will not ruin it for you . Wow . What a plot twist . I wonder if they can keep the writing up for the next season ? . My wife believes this episode is geared more for a female audience . Worth watching . Sam is very smart and figure the problem out for RoadKill . How many time does Sam do this ? |
402,886 | 453,228 | 52,618 | 7 | Ages well | This film ages well , and is still entertaining . However , one can see the evolution of acting and it's improvement over the years . Great script , excellent casting , and the chariot race is unbeatable . This movie is spiritual , and the ending is spiritually motivating , leaving the viewer with a scene of hope and faith . |
402,608 | 453,228 | 713,616 | 7 | Kind of like the old movie Scanners | If anyone reading these comments has the TV channel showcase , they you have probably seen the old movie Scanners . Supernatural Nightmare is a mix of Scanners and the movie Carrie . The plot is a mix of what happens to mom and trying to stop a unbalanced person with telekinesis . Supernatural has the usual balance of the two lead protagonists . A blend of the good looking girl , and the realism of the price the protagonist has to live with the sacrifice of dealing with the supernatural . How do they live ? Are they rich as they do not need jobs . Do they get down time ? I hope next season the show answers these questions . ! I wish they just keep showing the show on the same time slot in my area ( Winnipeg ) . |
402,320 | 453,228 | 75,784 | 7 | Good but not great | This movie is well acted , and has an incredibly high budget . It is worth seeing , because of these 2 factors , but the film ends negatively , and the viewer leaves the film on a downer . Well , they have to do this , in order of having a historically accurate film . This film is about operation Market Garden , and what happens to a military operation , when Murphy's law comes into effect . Everything did go wrong and even Sean Connery could not save the day . |
403,175 | 453,228 | 713,621 | 7 | Not bad | Not bad . I hate shows that do not have a conclusion but tune in next week for the ending . this episode is like that . It leaves you hanging . Sometimes with TV series , the shows get bogged down with too many subplots . You didn't really learn much from part one . Maybe part two will be better . Instead of dividing the episode into two parts , they should have made a two hour episode . What's with the shadows or the girl ? I guess I will find out next week . I do not know why they introduced a meeting with the boys ' father . You have really no character develop because he is never in any of the episodes . They should have an episode where they introduce the father and show what he was like before he went away . The audience has no reference with the father , but more with Dean and Sam . Can't wait for next week's episode . 7 out 10 . |
403,152 | 453,228 | 91,203 | 7 | The more times I see it the less I like it | This film is a good film . but the more I watch it the acting appears choppy . It a great story , about people who only die from decapitation . They don't age and sword fight each other through out time . For a time will come when they have a reckoning and must fight for the prize . Sean Connery is the mentor for the leading actor , and plays a great role . Its a good story , and it is written as a original , the sequels destroy the whole concept , and look silly . The acting is ok and the story is great , I give this movie a 7 . |
403,300 | 453,228 | 59,245 | 7 | Well done . | The new testament has so much about Jesus what does one include , and exclude ? How long can you make such a film ? My wife was taking her Catechism , and I rented a few film's about the Lord in order for her too understand the Bible better . She likes this film , but not as much as the 77 version . This film is inspiring for any Christian , and gives a message of hope for all of mankind . I love the casting , especially John Wayne as the centurion . Charalton Heston plays his best role , as John the Bapatist . Repent ! He plays the crazy with passion John better than anyone else . Worth renting around Christmas to remember what the season truly is about . |
402,875 | 453,228 | 54,331 | 7 | A Movie that ages well | I usually do not like long movies , but this one did not drag . A good movie about obtaining one's freedom . It had good acting and realistic battle scenes . You can see were Gladitor and Braveheart got its influences . This is the first movie that I seen Kirk Douglas act . I can see where Michael was influenced . This is one of the best epics . |
402,967 | 453,228 | 106,912 | 7 | Interesting story | Interesting story , we do not get into details with this film , but just the bare bones of it . Directed well , and no one misses the point of the film , because we can not really understand why ? Good acting and watch for Jim Rockford he plays the sherif well . My only question is why did that guy get out of the truck ? |
402,835 | 453,228 | 256,415 | 7 | down to earth people | Spoiler ! ! Josh Lucas did an excellent role . He reminds me of Matthew Maccoughney ( can't spell his name ) . I think he will get some more interesting roles in the future . Reese Weetherspoon did an okay role . She sure has lost the weight that she had in Cruel Intentions . The town was of real people not phonies . It took a swipe at the Northeast democrats that talk about poor people , but in reality they only care about themselves and their image . The character discovers that she is not in for the phonies and goes back to the real down to earth people . It is a girl movie , but can be enjoyed by the male audience of well . It reminds me of what you would see in the rural areas here in Canada as well as the States . |
402,850 | 453,228 | 80,130 | 7 | Good film | When I first saw this film , years ago , I found it unbelievable ; Now this could happen anywhere . There is more armed robberies , acts of violence , and crazies running around . The film starts out very creepy , with a nut phoning the house asking if you she checked the children , and the first 20 min is a tension build up . ( I will not ruin the shock to this scene ) Then the middle gets a little bogged down , but the end is a true shocker , when the crazed man goes after the women 7 years after the incident ; after he escapes the mental institute . Worth renting for date , it is entertaining and done well considering the budget . |
402,900 | 453,228 | 93,428 | 7 | Not a bad film , but | Not a bad film , but Dalton is no James Bond . You can see why he did only two films . The story is done well , but lags in the middle . This would have been one of the better films , but Dalton can not deliver a joke , and makes this film humorless . He plays a good agent , but has no Bond charm . Connery , and Moore , do laps around him . In the end , this should have been Bronson's film , but he still had contrack obligations with NBC . |
402,455 | 453,228 | 177,971 | 7 | spoiler I tell the ending | Warning a spoiler I tell the ending . This is not a bad movie I gave it a seven . The first part of the movie sets the seen and thats ok . There is a but here and the but is , when they head for the bar after a long time on the boat , the personal life character development stuff starts to get boring . When will they get back on the I was thinking after about 5 minutes to much about there sex lives , girl friends , and talking . When they get back on the boat the film picks up , and the interest of them getting a good catch , along with the riggers of job . The best part of the movie , and what I spent the money for is when the storm starts . It's a story like Jack Londons " To build a Fire " will they survive , and over come the natural problems nature throws at them ? Will the rescue team arrive in time ? What makes this film interesting is they turn the boat around and try to save there lives . Like Jack Londons to build a fire , they die in the ending , and its a good change from by the numbers hollywood endings , this adds realism . They tie the ending up nicely with a wall where the history of fisher men lost to the sea honors them , and shows there a part in history . Coming from Nova Scotia roots I can really appreciate this story about the sea . |
402,742 | 453,228 | 338,325 | 7 | Dark excellent movie ! | For a movie to be good the casting has to be excellent . Baldwin , Sizemore , the British nerd , and Wayne Grow from the movie heat were excellent creeps . The viewer really hates these guys , just like when Bruce Durn shot John Wayne in the back . Baldwin plays the not to bright scum bag as an art form . The plot is simple , and formulated well ; similar to an 80's action revenge or horror movie . Many cameo's in this movie . Bet the farm , that some of the scenes were based on real life . The British guy running in the back yard could have been on the news . The movie gets across the message that paparazzi misinforms the public , and harasses the celebrity . Many want to use the celebrity as a commodity , and thus the reason for security , and the want for privacy . For a good time see it in the theater . I give it a 7 or . |
402,474 | 453,228 | 250,797 | 7 | One should be happy with what one has | Richard Gere never ages . He seems to have a problem with his wives in movies ; they do not fair very well . I would not be surprised if this was a remake of a French film . It had an European style to it . Richard Gere plays the loving husband and Diane plays the wife that has too much time on her hands . The reverse of fatal attraction . A bit long . When events spin out of control , it leads to a tragic fate . This film is suspenseful which Richard is great at . |
403,121 | 453,228 | 455,590 | 7 | worth renting on a summer evening ! | Worth renting on a summer evening ! My first two days of holidays I always rent movies and order in pizza , while I sit on the couch . I first watched Alpha Dog and The last King of Scotland is a far superior movie . The acting is great ! Forrest has done is best performance ; I believe Forrest will never be able to out perform himself . The directing is at a good pace . The story keeps the viewer enthralled . . I wonder how close the story is to the real life experience . This movie is not for the faint hearted . Who every plays the nasty security agents hits the mark . Forrest is a under rated actor . The protagonist in this film sure is stupid . |
402,555 | 453,228 | 349,825 | 7 | Great movie ! | I stopped myself from chanting USA USA in the theater , because my wife would have left , but I still got emotional and raised my hands up when the US scored . I still miss the Jets leaving the Peg , and still have the game reflexes when I watched the movie with a hockey crowd . I remember watching most of the games when I was eleven . Everyone hated the big Red machine from the Soviet Union , that killed the NHL all stars , and team USA afterward in a pre-Olympic game . Part of the cold war fever taking place and this movie showed the importance of the game back in 1980 . I was chanting USA USA while watching the game , live at home and remember Craig with the flag , all the players standing on the podium during the medal ceremony . This must of had a huge influence on Hockey in the USA , and turned a lot of youngsters onto the game ! Being a hockey nut I remember watching the US during the 80's and they would lose in the first round at the Canada cups but with the younger players coming up they got better in every tournament , and finally made the cup final in 1992 . This event and the infusion of Canadian junior hockey coaches into their college system makes the US , the hockey power it is today . Is is no longer just Canada and the Russians , I figure there will be many Canada , USA olympic gold medal games with maybe a movie about it one day . Great hockey movie the advisors made the goaltending , and puck movement so real . Russell looks and acts like a coach , from the coaching view , not the fan . Brooks later became the coach of the Rangers , it was classy of them showing his picture at the end of the movie . |
403,163 | 453,228 | 120,787 | 7 | My wife liked it | This is a good movie , the more I watch it the more I like it . When I first viewed this movie I thought it was ok , but when we bought the video it began to grow on me . The acting is excellent , and the story twists along at a good pace . Douglas is a good actor and his performance alone is worth renting this film . |
402,625 | 453,228 | 83,960 | 7 | TBS Late night | This film kicks and punches . I have seen a lot of action films , and this one has the best direction for action sequences . The karate is just excellent , the one scene with the neon lights with the two dark combatents is way cool . The big man fight is interesting , and the story melts well with the action . This movie is about the action . The scene with the toilet almost killed Chuck in real life . |
402,458 | 453,228 | 217,756 | 7 | Not bad | When I went to the theater I thought this was going to be bad . Well , I was happily wrong , this movie is so stupid its funny ; thats hard to do for a movie . Stuped uually gets across as anoying , but not in this case . Hey if you want stuped laughfsrents this one . I guess we all need a little insanity in our lives |
402,993 | 453,228 | 105,402 | 7 | This film is funny | Joe however you spell his last name is funny . I mean real funny . I love the part where he plays these fantasy bad guys . The best part is where he makes a fool out of himself when he fights Chuck in a tournament . The other part I get a laugh out of is the biker and the hot Chinese soup . Well the rest , of it is a bit sappy , but oh well . |
402,935 | 453,228 | 384,806 | 7 | The Shinning meets Darkness | The Shinning meets Darkness ! If one has seen the other 2 movies they will understand how this movie is made . The first of this movie is scary . I found the last 25 % a bit over the top . A nastier version of the first with a more meaning feel to it . Evil lies , devides and leads to insanity is part of this story . The acting and directing is perfect and believable . A couple of scares in this film that made me jump and I never jump . at least in the last couple of years . Is it scary , one girl cut infront of me when leaving the movie house biting her nails and headed for the bathroom . Entertaining . 7 screams out of 10 . What with the test pattern ? Did anyone get it ? |
403,194 | 453,228 | 70,184 | 7 | Alex's best | Alex plays Hitler so well , I do not think anyone played Hitler as well . Maybe , tomorrow's CBS movie on this will give such a accurate portrayal . The sad part of this movie is its budget . It's done on the cheap , and is more like a play that is set in his bunker . This makes the movie a bit long . The strong acting makes up for this shorfall . Worth watching on the History Channel . . |
402,556 | 453,228 | 338,337 | 7 | I like science fiction and this film does it well . | Sorta spoilers This film is alot like total Recall ; the film has its weak moments , but has over strong concepts . The envelope part is great , what he lost from the mind wipe is great . Some idea of future events for him self is great , and the story melts all 3 together . Worth going out in January for . |
402,718 | 453,228 | 134,619 | 7 | Twilight Zone meets the Outer limits | If you like the Twilight Zone or the Outer Limits , you will love this film . The film can be described as a Twilight Zone or Outer Limits episode expanded to a full length film . It was great , and had a 80's feel to it more then a 90's feel . I guess the makers where trying to recreate some of the 80's horror magic in todays world . With the good looking hero , and clueless adults . ( which I find real life sometime copies film ) It's a film about adolescence , and its a hard time in life , with people who take advantage of this vulnerabiltiy . This part of the script hit me very hard , you see that message vaguely . Is the USA networks version longer or shorter the my VHS copy , what scenes where added or omited ? In the end I give it a 7 like adolescence I enjoy a cheap thrill now and then ! |
402,913 | 453,228 | 97,383 | 7 | Surprised at Rourke's performance | I was surprised to see that Mickey Rourke did this movie . He does a lot of B movies . His performance was done very well . He can be a good actor when he applies himself . He just does not know how to pick good roles . The story was interesting . It tells the life of St . Francis of Assissi . It was very inspiritual . It is interesting to see how this sect of monks came to be . |
402,814 | 453,228 | 70,215 | 7 | Italian humor | This film is bad , but my kind of bad . I remember this film after watching the end ; I must have seen it when I was 6 . Some of it is dated , slow , but the golden parts make up for it . Hilarious , the scene with the arm poll guy , and the shoot the beer before it hits the floor is great . Well direct , the scene at the beginning , and ending gives the story closer . This is a tongue , and cheek western , and the music score emulates this . A good film . |
402,473 | 453,228 | 113,071 | 7 | My wife loves this movie | My wife also likes Richard Gere , and that helps in her opinion . This film is about forbidden love , and is geared for the female audience . With Richard playing the lead in this historical soap opera . It is a good movie , and balances the romance with action scenes . I like the idea of brotherhood and Camelot , to bad the world could not have such honor . |
403,197 | 453,228 | 292,506 | 7 | Good film but a bad ending ! | The beginning , the training scenes , acting , and suspense where great . Colin Farrell , can act with Al Pacino ; there is a chemistry . I hope they do more films together . This film has many twists and turns , but one too many . The ending is a joke , I figured it out , and said you got to be kidding . Far fetched . Still , a good film in spite of the weak ending . The Bourne Identity is better . Hey how can I get a job with the CIA ? I give this a . |
402,746 | 453,228 | 349,903 | 7 | About as good as the original ! | Ocean's 12 is on par with Ocean's 11 . Both movies jump around on the emotional level . The viewer finds parts of the movie boring and would rate Ocean's a 3 . Then other parts of Ocean's become a 10 . Once the viewer averages Ocean's 12 out the overall rating is a 6 or . The story is weak in parts , and strong in others . The Julia Roberts bit is the highlight . Bruce Willis is great . The director's 70's or late 60's European feel is too much . Looks like a cheesy film they show on the showcase network with a low budget feel . The use of camera angles , and trickery takes the focus off the film . If a film lacks budget they use these tricks , and Ocean's 12 has no reason to use this . The acting is excellent considering the script . Brad Pitt was misused , could have added more for his character . My dad felt the same about Ocean's 12 . I would rather go see Flight of the Phoneix . Wait for video or on demand . 7 or . |
402,650 | 453,228 | 1,047,037 | 7 | Build up for the final episode . | I like Jericho . Jake Green gets to redeem himself form his past . We all knew Green would take the blame for the J & R retaliation . Beck creates marshal law . Revolt is beginning . I hate the disgruntled J and R employee sub-plot . Everything happened because of this employee . I hope we get a better explanation after two year of watching this show then that . What a rip off ! The build up is great . I bet the new J & R guy is in charge is gonna cause trouble . I hope this is not another right wing conspiracy theory , but a much deeper episode . The season final has to be big budget . Looking forward to next week . . Hawking , Green , and Beck have to play a major role for next week . |
402,651 | 453,228 | 1,047,036 | 7 | Not bad | Not a bad episode . One notices the close up and dark lighting of the episode which creates a feeling of closeness and tragedy for the show . The lighting gives a feeling of the aftermath of a horrid situation . I believe the J & R subplot , the phone calls to Hawkins , and the show's ending is all building up for the season finale . There is a lot of anger building up in the town of Jericho . I believe all the tension is build up for the climax . I think Jericho may only be 2 seasons . What can the series do for a 3rd year ? Not much . the second best show on TV . Beck is the key character in the series now . How will Beck react to the circumstances ? |
402,647 | 453,228 | 1,047,038 | 7 | Decent season ending | I must say this was a very short season . I just started watching the season , it was getting good then it is finished . How many episodes were there ? Maybe 6 or 7 ? Decent season ending . The ending is predictable with the bomb going to Texas , with Green and Rawlins playing the heroes . The flat character of Beck sees the light , and a civil war has / may erupt in the next season . I wonder what is going to happen to the town of New Bern . A high budget ending to a excellently casted , directed and written show . . Will they have enough material for season 3 ? A new script will take a lot of imagination . There will be a need for new characters and sub plots for a extra season . The protagonist Green and Rawlins characters are exhausted . I can wait for season 3 . |
402,918 | 453,228 | 1,047,032 | 7 | Not bad episode ! | Not a bad episode . I wish they showed more of the fighting and what happened . The viewer will have to wait for future episodes in order to understand who won the battle . I like the realistic military characters especially the portrayal of the captain . The captain is emotionless , logical , and pragmatic which portrays his military training . Vendetta killings with the invading town and reconstruction of Jericho is a realistic portrayal of what would really happen . The mayor / sheriff of New Bern is in lots of trouble . Green is chosen to be sheriff . A logical step for the transition from military rule in order to ease peace and normality to Jericho . Amnesty is given for war crimes in order to provide peace between New Bern and Jericho . If not there would be a lot of future counter revenge killings . The script writer's story displays what really happens in a war zone and how the military tries to defuse future hostilities . The Hawkin's subplot is slowly unraveling more to come on this front . stars for the reconstruction episode . I wanted a bit more maybe a 2 hour episode would have been better . |
402,622 | 453,228 | 80,031 | 7 | Good western | My wife thinks this movie is a dirty portrayal of the West . Historians will argue about Horn and the events that happen in this film , but I like it . Do not watch the edited tv version , to get the real brutal feel of this film rent it . It is a good portrayal of how dirty and nasty the frontier really was . The end suits this film very well , and if my wife can watch an entire Western the film is well done . |
402,830 | 453,228 | 116,367 | 7 | Silly and Stupid | This movie is both silly and stupid , but I like it . I like silly and stupid , and this is a great movie to watch on a Saturday with a couple of friends . It has demented humor , and I can be a twisted sort , so I got a few laughs . It has it all humor , action , and a very ruf edge . This is not a terms of endurment type film , for what its worth the acting and directing is very good . It is a unbelievable film , with a stupied concept , like Repo Man , and just as entertaining . If you want to be entertained , watch this one for the fun of it . This film is not for the serious at heart . |
403,237 | 453,228 | 233,142 | 7 | Crap but great crap | Like True Romance , and Pulp Fiction this film is movie junk food that I love to eat . Film purest will classify this film as crap , and so it is ; but this is crap that the masses want and the movie elite hates . For action films this is great , a few slow parts , and the action scene at the end got a little predictable , with the high kill counts , but rebounds with a great ending . An old western show down , and being a road movie it gives the junk food escapism I love and need . The acting is great , Costner plays such a great jerk in this film , his attitude makes the viewer dislike him , like a bad guys in wrestling . Costner should keep playing bad guys . I believe this is his strong point . Russell plays the hero or the not too bad bad guy . Russell character is the all American type he acts too the tee . Stay at the end of this film for they have a bonus with the credits , an Elvis video and a funny out take from the film . Taker easy , and give yourself a break and watch this film . |
402,554 | 453,228 | 87,727 | 7 | See part 2 before you see part 1 | I heard both movie where filmed together , but they mixed up the releases and put 1 as 2 and vis versa ; that was what the video store clerk told me . So watch 2 before you see 1 . This film is not bad . I love the Karate , and Chuck finely has a high budget for some great stunts . The story is interesting , and the action just rocks . If you want to watch a movie with a pizza , and beer this would be it . Very 80's and I chant USA to this one with my friends , we do that because we remember thats what the crowd chanted at wrestling for the American good guy , when he fought the forces of evil . |
402,440 | 453,228 | 202,470 | 7 | Realistic | Spoiler ! ! ! ! I found this movie realistic . I know the critics will hate this . When I was a teenager , the media and boomers hated heavy metal ; it did not reflect the Beatles culture of the past . In fact it destroyed it , like what Rap did to metal . I grew up in the 80's and wondered what it would of been like to live that Rock Star dream , of over excess . This film is great as a almost documentary on the life . This film shows how much fun fame , excess , and the continual high is , but shows the realities of excess , like too much water for a plant one starts to rot , and burns out . It would be fun to rock on 15 000 fans , and live with the adulation of millions , but it has a cost . The cost of excess on personal relationships , on one's values , what one is really expected to do in order to fit it . The pecking order of the band , and what the members really want . The lead character finds out the old lead singer is gay , and lived a quiet life , not this heterosexual full steam , party and die image . In the end , the Roadie told of his chance at normality , and how he gave up a wife and kids for these demands . Chris ( Izzy ) chose to live normality , instead of being with some stripper who wanted her turn on the ride before she had to go to work . As in all scenes , we see that the fad of metal die and a more wimpy grunge era begin . Instead of fading away with it , he choose to be with the one he loves . |
402,417 | 453,228 | 95,253 | 7 | Better than average | Dan does a good role , and John has a script . This film is great . A little sappy the love story , but the water ski scene makes up for it . I like this film , its worth the rental price . It was a great drive in movie when I went out with my parents . |
402,326 | 453,228 | 1,222,601 | 7 | Not a bad episode . | Not a bad episode , but the show is running out of ideas . The storyline is about death taking a holiday in small town America . Why is death taking a time out ? Another seal is being broken . I am so tired of the same recurring plot . The producers have to come up with a new storyline . The rest of the story is OK , with a few ideas taken from the movie Ghost . Well directed and acted I found the episode entertaining . However , the ending with another seal being broken was disappointing . The subplot of the personal wedge between Sam and Dean grows . Sam is becoming a new character has his powers grow . I wonder if Dean will have to face Sam about this ? Will Sam turn evil ? I give this show a . Good but not great . |
403,150 | 453,228 | 70,355 | 7 | violent | This film broke a few rules in violence when it came out . The first scene in this film is pretty graphic , and gives the viewer an idea of what to expect . TBS has to edit this movie extremely . I like it , not the best acting or script , but the concept is great . Eastwood is great and is the only one to pull this story off . The action scenarios have been copied to death , but in 73 it would have been ground breaking . The feel this movie projects of vigilantism make it a bench mark others have followed . If imitation is complementary this film is a standard other action films follow . |
402,567 | 453,228 | 200,465 | 7 | Good film | Well casted and directed . The movie has a strong cast . Many of the minor ( mi 5 and the cops ) characters have very anal attitudes , which get across as very analytical . The minor characters behavior and facial expressions show way to up tight attitudes . Being so wounded tight all the time everyone creates a need to vent sooner or later and that is why those picture in the vault were so incriminating . The movie is about dirty secrets . The pickle these people were in . Nothing is so easy and when the robbers were found out by mistake and even bigger pickle is created for them , and the robbers created a bigger pickle for the others by their reaction . I get the film's message . Brilliant ! Stay clean and stay out of a pickle . M5 bought the robbers off in order to stop the damage . . |
402,861 | 453,228 | 1,222,597 | 7 | Not a bad episode . | Family remains is not a bad episode , but not a great episode either . The creators of Supernatural were trying to give a new angle for the show . Instead of ghosts the Winchester's were dealing with deranged people . Family remains is a tribute to the movies " The Hills have Eyes " , and " The people under the Stairs " . I saw special effects influences from the movie " The Ring " added in this episode . We learn about Dean's experience in hell . The Winchester's save another family . Entertaining but I believe the creators are running out of ideas . I give this episode scares . How will Sam handle Dean's problems ? |
403,312 | 453,228 | 206,314 | 7 | Better than average | We missed this one in the theater and ended up renting it . We were quite surprised . It seems that so many of these horror / suspense films start out from a prank that goes wrong ; do they not ever learn . It shows what happens when you have a stupid family member . The voice of Rusty Nail was creepy . The suspense builds up well . We gave it a 7 . |
402,859 | 453,228 | 1,222,598 | 7 | Running out of ideas ! | The Supernatural series is running out of ideas , but the episode " Chriss Angel is a douche bag " is good . The script writers , on this episode , blended two running themes together . There is a magician who uses his evil powers to destroy people , but the flip side the magician tries to help his friend with these powers . In the end , the friend must do the right thing and stop the evil magician . The story is interesting , and blends into Ruby trying to make sSm use his powers . Dean warns you cannot stop evil , it just grows another head is a forewarning for the series . I wonder if Dean will be alone like the aging magician and will have to stop Sam . Why does Sam never learn ? I think the show is trying to stretch out of ideas . The first two seasons were a little more slicker . I give Chriss Angel . |
402,618 | 453,228 | 72,271 | 7 | Not bad | This movie was done by a University in Texas with student actors and a very low budget ; comparing it to the Blair Witch Project this one blows it away . For what they had to work with its not a bad film . When it came out in 74 it must have been a fresh and original film . It's been copied so many different ways by other movies and I consider that flattery . My wife jumped a few times and she never does that with movies , and you could see where the Blair Witch got the scary idea of running threw woods from this movie . Cutting to the chase , what scares the viewer is some crazy chasing you with a chainsaw . Its been done before with guns , knifes , and masks , but a chainsaw threw the woods , at night ads extra for the film . Its low budget , there is no Michael Cane in this film , and by far its not a 10 . This film compensates with camera angles ( close ups of eye balls ) and urban stories about events that happen in different parts of the country . |
402,325 | 453,228 | 611,981 | 7 | I thought it would be better ! | Being the last episode I thought the show would have an conclusion . The show must have been canceled . The show was like any other episode . Vincent was charged by a D A for murder then the D A finds out the truth about the invaders . Vincent and others go on to fight the invaders . Not much of and ending ! That is it ! What a major disappointment . In the end , the show looks like and end of the season show . I bet the producers where thinking about making season three . I guess the invaders won . There never was a season three . I give this episode a . For a final episode I this show an . |
403,003 | 453,228 | 1,222,610 | 7 | Didn't mind the show | The most non-serious of all the episodes of Supernatural so far ! I repeat so far ! A tongue and cheek homage towards the throwback of black and white horror movies . Wolfman , Dracula , and The Mummy are characters in Monster Movies . The camera angles , acting style , character names , credits and even the awkward acting take you back to the old time black and white horror film . I love the shows comic parts . Dean is overly silly , and Dracula is just as silly with the pizza coupon scene . Does he kill because he is lonely or is he lonely because he kills , is another silly line from the shape shifter . One problem with the concept . Doesn't a shape shifter have to touch someone gain their form ? OK show . |
402,570 | 453,228 | 770,752 | 7 | Good solid movie | Living in the cold March weather of Winnipeg , Canada I found the sun and surf a relaxing break from the cold weather where the wind chill freezes my bones until July . A good solid movie . Great cast Hudson , Sutherland , and Matt . The actors can bring the best out of a script with their facial expressions , and mannerisms . Sutherland is like wine and gets better with age . A natural actor . The script is a good mix of humor , and action . The rapper sub-plot is added comic relief and action . The lighting and location shots bring out a feeling of adventure . The wide open spaces created by the camera angles give a feeling of freedom . All I can say is please take me away from this cold weather I want to be there in Florida . 7 start out of 10 . Great to get rid of those winter blues . |
402,997 | 453,228 | 1,222,614 | 7 | A bridge episode . | Is Sam evil ? The good guys warn of Sam's powers . Sam uses his power but for good . Dean has a mission . Will it involve Sam ? What is everything leading up to . The plot devices of the evil blond , Halloween and Sam's showdown with a very evil guy is in the mix . Not a bad episode but Supernatural's forth season is getting redundant . OK episode . Seven for this show . Love the Impelia the best plot device in the show . They should have a show just on the Impelia . I like the first season best . The second season was OK too . the 3rd season lacked for a while . Did not mind the 4th season so far . Howevery the producers seem to be running out of ideas . |
402,489 | 453,228 | 851,759 | 7 | I don't trust Hawkens . | Not a bad show . The subplot of the character Hawkens is interesting . I wonder what Hawkens is up too ? ( He's lot smarter than most of the town ) . I believe the town will catch on . Outside of the town is anchory , and I would not want to be the guy who is looking for information . The societal breakdown is turning people into animals . The writer for the series must use sociologist about the human factor for the show . . Interesting plots , and subplots . The show gets a little bogged down , but over all good . Rent the series . I saw one show last summer and found watching the series interesting . Fresh ideas for their has never been a nuclear fall out style show before . |
402,810 | 453,228 | 72,288 | 7 | Old Movie that still kicks | This film has a few weak spots in the script , but I sure like it . A heist movie , with a mean Kennedy in it . Jeff and Clent never made another movie , and they could be like Redford and Newman ; they have movie chemistry . TBS edits this film too much , its recomended watching on video . Worth renting . |
403,213 | 453,228 | 58,947 | 7 | One of the better 1960's WW II movies | Good acting , big name actors , and a lot of Tanks make this exciting to watch . The Panzerline March song adds to the film . Some dated scenes and effects , but overall a good picture . Robert Shaw shines in his performance . It will be on PBS again . |
402,346 | 453,228 | 70,379 | 7 | Interesting | There is some real life experiences in this film , about a group of guy who grew up in little Italy in New York , and this makes the film fasinating . Some of the story is just too weired not to be made up . Johnny the boy , played by De Nero is too crazy and owes everyone money . This guy has gotta be real . With the conversations about women , religion , and the crazy personal behaviors of the characters the viewer finds himself listening to story from a good friend . What puts this film over the top is the details , for example when Harvey De Nero and friends get into a fight in a pool hall you can tell they watch not to rip their suits when they stand on the table , and fight of the bad guys with cues , probably because its the only suit they own . You will have to watch this film a few time , but it grows on you . |
403,243 | 453,228 | 105,323 | 7 | Whooooa What a movie | Spoiler ! ! ! This is a story about desperate situations , and how the 2 character need each other . One facing academic destruction , and the other blindness . One plans to kill himself , and the other will live a shallow life never being able to seek his real potential . Their need for other is based on the strengths the other does not have , which helps both to face their own weaknesses . One realizes he lives a better life then most people , and will adjust and continue on , while the other is helped out of a bad situation . In the end this movie leaves you feeling good , and thankful for the hidden potential we all have inside . |
402,728 | 453,228 | 468,569 | 7 | On the long side , but still good ! | The dark knight length is on the long side , but still a good movie . I see a lot of post 9-11 in " The dark Knight " . The Joker is like a terrorist who destroys without motive . Harvey Dent is the out of control administration which has to appear strong and good to keep society's hopes and aspirations balanced . " The dark night " is the CIA , secret and clandestine , who's role is one of protector . The cell phone tap is similar to the Patriot act argument . When is too far too far ? Batman never kills , unlike the Joker , in order to hunt a monster one does not become one . Self-sacrificing Batman chooses the good of the people over his girlfriend . The Joker loves to test people resolve . Batman is a unsung hero who's successes have to be unknown . Like Iran / Contra Batman takes the rap unfairly . Secrets are burnt for the good of everyone . " The Dark knight " rides again lurking into the shadow combating the chaos evil brings . covert operations for " The dark Knight " . |
