403,122 | 453,228 | 382,932 | 8 | Good animated film ! | My wife loves animated films . She thought the rat looked cute . The story's theme of the rat rising above his station of life is motivating . Reme , the rat , like foods and wants to create instead of stealing food . Linguini is controlled by Reme and the fun beginning with Linguini being comic relief . The French atmosphere is nice . One will notice many big name voices in the movie . Brian Dennehey and James Remar are heard . Peter O'toole is the voice of the food critic . The underdog theme of many children tales is well done . One cannot help but cheer for Reme and Linguini , who play the 2 lost characters . . Buy the DVD , I know my wife will . |
402,679 | 453,228 | 97,351 | 8 | Costner's high water mark | Before Costner tried to please the critics , he made some challenging films . This film is his best . A 60 homerun season , if he ever bests this that would be incredible . Fantasy / Science Fiction film that is believable . What if the ghosts from the past appeared in a corn field , made into a baseball diamond . Wrongs could be corrected , people could do what they love baseball , and redemption could be found . I will not ruin this story for you , but it is a strange one . So strange that it works . Original , creative , and most of all entertaining . Rent this one , way better than the other crop movie Signs . A classic ! |
402,984 | 453,228 | 767,486 | 8 | I like this one | Dead Man's Blood is a great episode . A mix of the two movies ' The Lost Boys ' and ' Near Dark ' . I love the human side too the vampires . The vampires looked like a bunch of partyers like in ' The Lost Boys ' . I never knew that dead mans blood would ruin the party . Sam and Dean get to finally meet dad , and the family drama continues . John Winchesters hard a approach show why Dean acts in his loyal manner , while Sam fights dad's military style discipline . The colt is revealed , and the trail of the yellowed eyed one is sought . . The crux episode for the first series . Watch The lost Boys and Near Dark you will get a kick out the two movies if you like this episode . |
403,233 | 453,228 | 412,142 | 8 | One of the strong show's on TV | I find the characters a little too type-casted and a little to stereotyped . Those negative aspects of the show are far outweighed by the positive . House is a brilliant character , who's brilliance makes House a loner for he is 2 steps ahead of everyone else , and is annoyed by others . Do other doctors fight and have personality conflicts with each other in such tense situations while having to rely on each other . The producers could be creating more drama than reality . The story stimulates the reader with interesting plot twists and medical problems . My wife wishes her doctor was just as thorough as House . He is a gem even though he is rough . He expects the best from his staff . |
402,839 | 453,228 | 91,400 | 8 | This is a great film . | Spoilers ! ! ! HBO sometimes comes out with great films , and this is one of them . 4 . 8 and that guy's hateful comments towards this movie I totally disagree with . Rent this film , the people who review it give it a bum rap . I was watching it , with my sister's boyfriend Blake . He yelled get the American flag out , and a bunch of other hysterics . I ignored it , I thought that other countries besides the states also have their social problems , which results in Harry's capture . The part Blake did not get is this film has little to do countries , but communities , families , and brothers . Actually , no one in the government was going to save Harry and he was going to die , and Harry's brother , community and friends did something about it . Gary Busey plays a good role as the financier , too bad he ruined a good career . Robert Duvel , plays the dirty , but fair mercenary . Some can do it others make mistakes , we learn about each character's faults ; The scene where everyone in this proud mid western town at work hear that one of their own is rescued , and the party they throw touches my heart . Especially when he understands why the family guy tried , and could not do the mission . I believe in family and community , and that is what this movie is about . |
402,623 | 453,228 | 105,226 | 8 | You Dell from Dallas | Story about a out of his luck Cage who just drifted into town who takes a job offer , with out knowing what he is getting into . Ever made a mistake you could never get out of , well this is one of them . The event leads to a very bad couple of days and a very interesting story . Watch this move and you will get a feel for the west and it characters ; the twists in plot keep ones attention on the film . Dell from Dallas puts this one over the edge . This movie is much better then kiss the girls or the bone collecter . |
402,319 | 453,228 | 85,995 | 8 | Classic | This is the best of the Vacation movie series , and one of the few successful films Chev Chase has done . It is a what can go wrong does go wrong vacation ; the movie addresses vacation form hell scenarios of : relatives , in-laws , car problems , money problems , family trouble , with some sex appeal , and action added in to make the story spicy . Its a good movie and I gave it a . |
403,295 | 453,228 | 58,886 | 8 | One of Hestons best . | When will it be ready ? When its done ! This is a great portrayal of Michal Angelo . Heston's high water mark , and this is hard to out do . Even with the films age it does not look dated . Much better than other movies form this time period . This is a movie with a message . Rent it or even buy it . |
402,969 | 453,228 | 143,145 | 8 | Bronson finally gets it right | Well , better than the last 2 , and the last one was a step backwards . The humor , charm , and seriousness Bronson portrays , melds into a combination that creates the Bond character . The story is strong , but no one would survive an explosion in a pipeline . The shockwave would be too great , but its Bond anyways . The lead bad guy plays a great role , but Denise Richards get across more like a dingbat , then a nuclear physicist , when she delivers her scientific line . She's there for fluff . Not a bad story , or cast , and Bond actually acts as him , a turn in the right direction |
402,336 | 453,228 | 268,380 | 8 | Love that squirrel | This was a great animation with lots of humor . Denis Leary's voice is always recognizable . This film is great for kids but also entertaining for adults . The voices suited the characters . This is one that I will purchase when it comes out . I felt sorry for the doodoo birds . A good family orientated film . |
402,356 | 453,228 | 120,689 | 8 | Stephen King | Will be studied in English class just Jack London , or Robert Frost one day when after he dies years from now . This film is original and keeps one guessing . Unlike those made for tv film this has some soul . Most TV and some theater release look wooden . A little sappy at the end but I would ignore it |
403,369 | 453,228 | 1,222,605 | 8 | One of the better episodes . | One of the better episode . The Winchester brothers found out dad had another family , and a half brother . The story asks is the brother really who he say he is ? The viewer , with the sub plot , finds out how harden Sam has become . Sam has evolved into his father . The show keeps the viewer interested with the plot twist where Dean and Sam find out there half brother and dad's love interest are really replicants of ghouls . The ghouls hated the Winchesters and wanted revenge over the death of their father . One asks the questions should John Winchester have left the ghouls alone in the first place ? A very messy ending . I give Jump the Shark an . Worth watching ! |
403,279 | 453,228 | 1,222,606 | 8 | The Plot Thickens | Another good episode . The angry spirits attack hunters who made mistakes . The angry spirits are the ones the hunters could not save . I love Bobby's spirit panic room . The best part of the show . Bobby seems to be miles ahead of the Winchesters . Is Bobby's experience showing here ? He seems to have taken the role of father figure . Dean is given more info from the angel about the upcoming spiritual war . Can Dean trust the information he is receiving from this angel ? Evil is abound . What is happening with Sam ? This is another question the episode leaves . Another question : what is Ruby up to ? I give the show . The episode leaves the viewer wanting more . The viewer is left anxiously waiting for next week's episode . |
402,379 | 453,228 | 1,222,593 | 8 | Neat Episode ! | I like this episode . I believe one of the plot devices in Time is on my Side will be used for future episodes . Franinstein , is a awful concept . I like how the brothers devisions is a for shadow of what is happening to the characters . Dean is so street smart . I like how Dean outsmarted the Dr Evil guy . Well for this show . One of the grosser episodes . a few tributes to a couple of movies here . Will the Trickster ever comeback ? Will Bella comeback next season ? There is so many lose ends we need a season 4 ! PS The fridge part was so eerie . I like how Dean just hate the doctor . Dean dose not want to be just a evil as the things they hunt . |
403,280 | 453,228 | 1,222,595 | 8 | Good episode . | Creepy show . I like the grave scene . What happen to Dean is awful . I remember watching the episode Mystery Spot where the Trickster says Dean will be the death of you and that Sam is the Travis Bickle of this world . If anyone has seen Taxi Drive 1976 they will know who Travis Bickle is . Travis Bickle is a whacked out guy who does misleading and violent actions . We get the feeling Sam needs to be stopped . Dean is right Ruby is up to no good . Unless there is a plot twist I believe Sam is up to no good in the end . A showdown is unavoidable . Good episode . I give the season opening a . No writers strike so we can see a whole season this year . |
403,282 | 453,228 | 478,087 | 8 | 21 is a . | 21 is a . The movie 21 has a compelling story , which is well acted , and directed . I love watching well executed movies . Will the protagonist get his money for college ? Is the professor an evil man ? How evil is the security firm ? These questions and more will be answered in the next couple of hours when viewing 21 . I enjoy watching Kevin Spacey who always plays a good creepy role . The only part I hated about the movie was when the pizza delivery guy interrupted the flick ! When does it take a hour to get a pizza , when the place is 10 minutes from my house . Well , that is besides the point . Worth downloading on payperview ! Payperview is cool and way cheaper than video rentals . I did not even have to take the movie back . Worth seeing on payperview . 21 is a or in IMDb terms a . |
403,001 | 453,228 | 1,222,613 | 8 | A good solid comedy ! | Supernatural never takes itself too seriously . I love this comic episode which provides a break from the usual scarum dark side shows . Dean is the victim for the brunt of the script writers comic plot devices . The episode is about Dean getting the scary virus and is very unDean for the rest of the show . The Eye of the tiger part ? What is with that ? I love the chain ending . Sam saves Dean's bacon again . My wife loved this episode , especially with the Dog and Dean part . I give this show a . I though maybe the Trickster was back at it again . There is a second ending to this show so do shut the show off too soon ! |
402,996 | 453,228 | 1,222,615 | 8 | Funny Funny Funny | Funny ! Funny ! Funny ! The fourth season of Supernatural uses humor way more than the first three seasons . I love the super strong kid scene . The Teddy bear scene is great too . The wishes end up being bad wishes . The sad part of the show is the geek's life is better off with the bad wish going wrong , but hey when you hit bottom there is no where to go but up . I like the message be careful what you wish for you might get it . The story's message of having everything you want drives you crazy is told excellently by Dean . Dean says he has his problems too . I agree . Well the Impelia make a great guest appearance and hits someone . Wishful Thinking is a . |
402,750 | 453,228 | 368,891 | 8 | Disney meets ' Raiders of the lost Ark ' | Spoiler ! National Treasure is an adult movie which kids can watch . Not overly violent or scary , but grown up enough that , Mr adult me , never though this was Disney . Casted perfectly , with the old UK USA rivalry for the treasure that each groups seeks . Sean Bean plays the perfect bad guy , and Cage play the humble , and non imposing role excellently . A bit of gen y and xers making fun of each other . The director keep a fast pace for a action movie . The script wonderfully mixes legend , history , and the Masons all together nicely . Watch for part 2 , and I hope they do make a sequel . The best part of the film is when Cage plans to steal a item in this film . . Worth seeing in the theater |
403,385 | 453,228 | 93,693 | 8 | funnier than most | I like this film , and it has many memorable moments . The hose scene , and Russel's antics . This is a great movie , Russel does comedy perfectly . He can play the all American , guy next store better than anyone else . This movie is a tribute to his acting ability . I can watch this one over and over . |
403,368 | 453,228 | 612,012 | 8 | Not bad . | Not a bad show . Vicent tried to save a friend who killed an Invader . The trial goes on . Who is the invader . The Invaders try everything to stop the case from telling the truth . The only way Vicent figures out what happens is the defense attorney is the Invader . Cuts the Invader's face in the back room with the judge . No blood for the defense attorney which is proof he is an Invaders . However as always the Invader is kills and vanishes and their goes David Vicents proof . The judge and prosecutor drop the charges for David's friend . Good show , with a strong build up and great acting . I give the show an . Better than average for the series . |
403,324 | 453,228 | 106,664 | 8 | King rules | I have watched a few stinker horror movies lately , and when I entered the video store I wanted to watch a movie done by King . What a difference a good writer does , compared to all this garbage done to cash in on the resurgence of horror films . King is a present day author like Hemmingway , or Robert Frost . We should enjoy his work while he is alive , because when he dies he will become known as one of America's great authors . Maybe he will be studied in school . This film is about twins , alter egos , and sparrows carrying peoples souls . This film is creepy , and its fiction is done perfectly . No need for a high budget , when you have good acting and an excellent story . |
403,249 | 453,228 | 959,976 | 8 | One of my wife's favorite episodes . | One of my wife's favorite episodes . My wife thinks heart is a soap opera style episode . The plot twists of who was the werewolf is great . Did anyone fortell the religious neighbor , who had the hots for Madison , is at fault for Sam's girlfriend getting infected ? Great foreshadowing , of the plot twist when the neighbor opens the door and listens to Sam and Dean , at the beginning of the show . I can see why Sam tries not to get personal with the job . Madison seduces Sam with the laundry . Sam always gets the smart girls like in the episode in providence . This time the girl dies . Dean always show emotion when involving Sam . Dean's tears is the final plot twist that creates irony for the audience . I did not like the drunk lawyer I can see why Madison blew him off . |
402,416 | 453,228 | 93,748 | 8 | JOHN CANDY'S best | Spoiler ! ! ! ! This film is Candy's best ; too bad his career ended so early . Steve Martin ( SNL ) whose career started with a big bang , started to slowly die , and this was his last good film . Candy who never seems to get the roles or respect he deserved ( this was a tailor made character ) . The results were hilarious . I love the scene where Candy and Martin ( one of his first straight roles ) kept looking at the bed in the hotel room , with that camera close up and music . Then Candy asks if he wants a shower ; One of many great roles . The ending gets very serious , and we find that Martin actually has a heart . |
402,893 | 453,228 | 213,149 | 8 | Romance / War movie | The first hour of the film is romance / relationships , and the war , madly , interrupts this . My wife deeply enjoyed the romance part , and I found it much better than the Titanic's love story . Then there is a few good plot twists , and my part of the movie begins with the Pearl Harbor attack . The attack is well done , and I found it very realistic . Then the movie mixes the romance and the war together for the conclusion . I gave it an 8 , it would be higher , but I wish they expanded a bit more of the historical events leading up to the attack . This movie is fairly flawless . |
403,215 | 453,228 | 371,606 | 8 | worth a few laughs | Worth a few laughs . My wife saw the preview , and thought it was cute , and wanted to see it ! She did not recognized any of the voices . The story is both interesting for both kids and adults . A lot of stupid behavior . The story has the same formula as the cry wolf story . No one believed him . The aliens remind me of the War of the worlds with the three legs and laser lights . The paper pants and a few other props were funny , a lot of imagination with the movie . The movie remake was interesting at the ending too . Patric Stewart from Star Trek does the teachers voice . . Good Christmass movie . Take kids or the girl friend . |
402,666 | 453,228 | 804,461 | 8 | Kevin Bacon doesn't dance foot loose in this film ! | Kevin Bacon does not dance ' Foot Loose ' in this film . Kevin Bacon's film career has gone full circle . ' Foot Loose ' a teenage rebel in a small town who starts a dance is far different to Death Sentence . A retro 70's film which mixes ' Death Wish ' with ' Taxi Driver ' . A excellently executed film which explains the cycle of violence . The court room scene is a tribute to Death Wish with the failure of the system ; the gun fight scene with the fingers , nick injury , and Kevin sitting on the couch is a homage to ' Taxi Driver ' . If one has seen ' Taxi ' driver they will notice the similarities . No Kevin did not break out into a dance in the middle of the gun fight . ' Foot Loose ' was a way different film , and Death Sentence has much deeper message . The ' Bible ' speaks about violence begets more violence , which the film demonstrates . The Chinies ' two grave theory hit with a vengeance for the protagonist , his family and the cops . I noticed the Netch theory ending of one becoming a monster when they go out hunting monsters . The protagonist transformation is the thesis of ' Death Sentence ' analogy of violence and revenge . . What a evil world we do live in . I hope God does not judge us to harshly . |
402,568 | 453,228 | 443,274 | 8 | A very solid movie ! | A very solid movie , but a little too smart . I like this movie . There is many camera close ups facial expressions and weird camera shots which creates each characters view point . I love the one character who thought the terrorist was in love with the man she was extorting . Well acted and direct , but the script has one to many sub plots . 2 presidents , and the ambulance part was way to over board . At least I thought the second half was to much . for a gusty movie which pushes the limits . Orinional concept of different vantagepoints . I do believe the ending where we never see the whole picture and the media makes mistakes . Denis Quade adds a human element for a movie . |
402,545 | 453,228 | 93,773 | 8 | Arnold bounces back from Raw Deal | After the huge disappointment with Raw Deal , a fresh new idea came to action films . An alien that hunts humans for sport . Carl Weather ( Appolo in Rocky ) teams up with Arnold in this action adventure . Arnold is such a good physical actor that in the end with his Conan scream make this film a thriller . A director does not need much dialogue in a script when the visual is considered more important . The direction in this does not need it . This film will hunt you down , and I give it an 8 . |
402,438 | 453,228 | 111,161 | 8 | A film of Eloquence | I figured prison life to be much harsher , as seen in other films . This is the films only weak point , but then the story would suffer if the film was like Fight club . This is a story about a man who loses everything but still survives . He uses his intelligence to outwit his attackers , and function in prison . No matter what happens he still kept his dreams alive . What is a man without dreams ? The word institutionalized is used in this film to describe what the prison does to the individual . Tim Robbins will not have the inner freedom of who he is change to what the prison dictates . There are many interesting subplots that keeps the viewer's attention . These subplots culminate into a unforgettable conclusion . |
402,763 | 453,228 | 295,700 | 8 | What a turn to make ! | This would be anyone's worst nightmare while on the road . If someone does not no an end of town of country , they do not know what to look out for . This movie is believable as there are some pretty sick people out there . The story kept one guessing . The momentum built throughout . The lead actor played in the Messenger : Joan of Ark Story . He is not a bad actor . It was worth seeing . It was scary without being too gory . |
402,852 | 453,228 | 98,206 | 8 | Sex , Violence , and humor | Many will hate this adolescent foray , but in my imature nature I liked it . This film does what many action film miss , it has a flow to it . The story keeps the viewer intrigued and the violence , humor and sex apeal puts sizzle into the steak . The pool cue scene is excelent , the tiger claw kun fu move is great , and the for a great Buick is funny . A bounce who is a philosopher is a nice twist . Rent it . . . . Watch it . . . . Love it . . . . . . |
402,619 | 453,228 | 184,858 | 8 | Good movie | I don't like action movies , they seem to be formulated and done by the numbers to often . Big ending , evil bad guy attractive girl and ends with hero has girl , bad guy dies etc . This movie has the girl , the bad guy , but is done a little differently ; there is many twists in the plot and its not to stright forward to insult the viewers intelligences . I keep thinking to myself the hero should have just stayed on the bus and the stir of trouble would not be . The tention steams at a hard pace , and he should of listen to himself when he talked to himself . |
402,636 | 453,228 | 269,095 | 8 | I really enjoyed this film . | Sometimes , I watch a movie , and because of my mood I thought it was great , and I see it 2 years later with doubts that it is the same movie . I hope this is not the case ! The acting is top notch , and the surroundings perfect . I understand the story , with the urban decay message . Winnipeg has many areas similar with this story . This movie has a social message , and thankfully not a heavy one , where decay is not just the neighborhood , but with the people . Broken marriages , broken families , and broken lives create broken neighborhoods . What we say , do , and choices have consequences . People dumping there responsibilites , acting 19 as an adult , not working on their marriages or families is a social diease of our time . The director conveys this excellently . De Niro left his family , and the consequence of it , and later in this movie he owes up for this , and his son trys to do the same . When the family lets you down , and we all need help , it's difficult to recover . Funny , my uncle thought from a generation earlier divorce was good for the kids , because there were so few then , and now the kids have a different opinion . Movie for our time . |
402,857 | 453,228 | 936,501 | 8 | The best movie of the year so far . | The best movie of the year so far , but the year is young . Nellson is a great actor . Nellson's stage presence of an angry father drives the movie . Nellson's character is an ex special forces operative whose daughter is kidnapped . Nellson's daughter is taken by a prostitution ring . When dad arrives to France the story's event become messy . Nellson gets nasty in this movie . Too many scumbags , Nellson has a few good one liners . A great action movie . Worth seeing ! Why did Nellson not use the help of his buddies is a good question for the film ? His ex wife turns out to be an awful woman . She just treats him like garbage . |
402,678 | 453,228 | 109,327 | 8 | Great horror movie with a social message . | Spoilers . I love an intelligent horror movie with a real life social message . These two premises usually work out great . This film has a new twist . This kid whose love for the dark side and gore receives a new neurological computer game that interacts with his mind , via Videodrome . This film shows the social aspects of violence , and the murder is very graphic , and sickening on purpose ; where the victim suffers . This guy has to deal with the consequences of his actions and guilt . ( A nice kid who has to live with this , now that is the scary part ) An evil being called the Trickster torments him , and his other victims have faces , personalities , and people he knows . The people behave believably . This is where the message comes in at the ending when he finds out that what went on is a game , he is sicken and angry . He positively drops the negativity of his fascination of horror and grows up and gets on with life . He stops being a weirdo and starts interacting with other teens . |
402,892 | 453,228 | 190,865 | 8 | Surprise | This movie is surprisingly good , I did not go to the theater , because the movie trailer was awful . I almost went to see it twice , but the trailer pushed me away . This movie is fast paced , very tense , and the mountain scenes got my blood pumping . The beginning is just excellent , but the movie had a few too many sub-plots at the end ; otherwise this film is great . It is nice to be surprised when you rent a video , and expect little . |
402,884 | 453,228 | 80,684 | 8 | Still good | I remember going to this film with my older sister at the Garrick downtown , which by the way they closed yesterday . We arrived at 11 am , figuring we would be the first in line , to our surprise we met this guy Andy Swan , who was there from 9 am on . He was waiting in line from about 8 am on for his friends , I got to be number 11 in line for this film on the first day . The line up was over 3 streets , and there were people with Darth Vader Masks , Light Sabers , etc . It was more like going to an Oakland Raider game , than a movie . The wait , and the build up did not disappoint the viewer . This film was original , and not a copy of the first . A plot that left the viewer hanging , and some great special effects . I love the Yodi guy . Not as spell binding as the first , but in someways better . |
402,779 | 453,228 | 360,009 | 8 | WOW way too cool ! | I don't know if it was the mood I was in , but I really like this film . Far fetched plot , but not too unbelievable . Val's acting can move a movie up a notch . I wonder if such hard methods as seen in this film ever take place ? The War on terror probably influenced the film makers . How Kilmer moves , thinks , and acts is believable of the character . The saddest part about this film is true scum bags do exist , I have very little empathy for scum . The movie's message of not believing what one hears is probably true . I wonder how much we hear , read , and watch is manipulated by the government , and the media . Spartan's art of deception is key for his success . How much media deception is a result of personal bias , or advertising pressure , or intellectual elitism is what I wonder after watching this film . The way the film ends makes me wonder if anyone finds out what the truth is ? Mike |
402,817 | 453,228 | 377,992 | 8 | Well done , good job ! | This movie captures the spirit of Christ as a healer , and the son of God . The movie shows an accurate portrayal of the division that Jesus ' teaching created . I found the movie up-lifting , and realistic . The people looked and acted from the region and time . The Roman governor is played well . They leave most of the Crucifixion out , which is a smart idea , because the movie ' The Passion ' shows this meditation . Very educational . The Gospel is so long , they had to leave some parts out . I wish they did not , but I guess it would be 3 DVD's then . The film is well acted , directed , and paced . The movie went by fast , and realistic . I wonder if any other of the gospels will be done . 8 out 10 . I wonder if Mel Gibson will do another Christian film . |
402,699 | 453,228 | 74,564 | 8 | Reynold's Best | This is White Lightning with the budget . Great story , and action with a mix of directing that gives the viewer a feel for the south . A tailor made role for Burt Reynolds , which became a high water mark , he never could reach again . I love the part where the tall guy uses the sun roof in order to drive the car , and the beginning narration . Too bad this format was not in use for Sharky's Machine , he would have done better in the 80's . This movie made him a star of the 70's , and this film ages well , which is the test of time . rent it today . |
402,883 | 453,228 | 76,759 | 8 | The movie that started it all | I gave it an eight , it would have been a ten , but special effects have improved over the last twenty years , and makes this movie show its age . The acting is great , and the story is original . Too bad they keep copying it with the later movies . We see a young Harrison Ford , and Alex , G do some of there best performances . The story still captures my attention , and I can watch this film over and over . I remember when I was eight , looking at night sky after my dad took me to this film , |
403,083 | 453,228 | 76,740 | 8 | Hidden gem | I have been renting older films because of the lack of any good new releases . This film pits man and machine against the elements . All the characters have a bad past and need money to leave the bad environment they live in . The bridge scene is tense and the music is great . The name for this film does not belong . |
402,331 | 453,228 | 159,881 | 8 | I watch this game show off and on again . | I watch Jeopardy on and off again . I do not mind Jeopardy , but sometimes the questions become too mundane . The guests are the same old same old . The show is great and has been copied over and over again . The show ' Who wants to be a millionaire ' is influenced by Jeopardy . I believe Jeopardy is the prelude for reality T V . Alex is a great host . I do not like game shows and I give Jeopardy an eight , which mean Jeopardy is a great show . How long has Jeopardy been on ? The only shows which have been on longer are The Price is Right , and Wheel of Fortune . Jeopardy is a TV icon . Viewers will be seeing Jeopardy for a long time to come . Worth watching . |
402,707 | 453,228 | 98,382 | 8 | My favorite . | I do not know why the people trash this film ; I like the story . They try blow threw the great barrier , and find God . They have Spock's brother who can relieve peoples minds of their pain , and directs this mission . The crew starts too show its ages here , but we learn about Kirk . I love the line where Kirk explains why he keeps his pain . He admits he as a captain made mistakes , which cause him pain . He learns from his pain , and part of that pain makes his personality , and who he is . Rent this one . |
402,375 | 453,228 | 441,773 | 8 | It was funny ! | When I saw the preview I didn't know what to expect knowing that Jack Black was in it . However , I was pleasantly surprised . The movie was hilarious , I couldn't stop laughing . I liked the part where they were hiding food under the pots and playing the shell game with them . Jack Black did a good role . I like the noodle dad ; this guy seems to be in all Kung Fu movies . Dustin Hoffman was great as the master . The film has a good message for kids in believing one's self . The animation was great . I didn't recognize Angelina Jolie as the voice of the tiger warrior . The film is entertaining for both adults and children . My wife loves animated movies so that is why we attend this film . My wife gives it a 8 of 10 Kung Fu kicks . |
402,472 | 453,228 | 69,704 | 8 | Dazed and Confused before its time . | Before George Lucus did Star Wars , this was his big film . One can see why ' Happy Days ' was made , after watching this film . 70's flash back TV , just like ' That 70's show ' is today . This film and ' Dazed and Confused ' go over memorable High school events outside of school . The script , probably , based on real life events ; the film's events cut too close to be fiction , maybe a little Jazzed up , but stories passed down over time . The story goes full circle , and ties in how events reflects an individual's character . This is a must see on cable , if you have not seen it 10 times before . . |
402,838 | 453,228 | 280,380 | 8 | Kevin Bacon plays an excellent creep | Kevin Bacon has found his new niche in films ; playing the villain . The plot is quite interesting , but tries to make the villains not as evil . Why didn't they just torture Kevin Bacon's character . It was a good suspense film . I think the movie made the FBI look too stupid , but after it makes you wonder who they really have working there . Charlize plays a good role . She is coming along with her acting . Who was in the trunk of the stolen car ? That lost me . Worth going to see in the theatre . |
403,267 | 453,228 | 175,159 | 8 | A happy family movie | Spoiler ! A surprise ending about hope . I watched this movie with my wife and nephew Austin . Austin enjoyed the movie . Austin liked how people can change . My wife liked the dog . Myself found it a little long at the beginning , but as the movie progressed the pace and flow melded into a entertaining movie . The guy from Law and Order played a good part . It was different seeing him in such a different role . The movie gives you a feeling of country life . They even had the nasty neighbour . The other dogs in the movie were mean because they were mistreated , but with a little love and kindest , they can change . Overall it is a good movie for the family to watch . |
402,941 | 453,228 | 338,751 | 8 | What a surprise ! | What a surprise ! I had many doubts going to see " the Aviator " after watching " the gangs of New York " . After watching the director and lead actor before I wonder why they ever would work together again . I was wrong , there is a chemistry the 2 have together . Great acting and directing . The movie does not seem to be the 2 hours that the movie is . Hugh's phobia towards germs is never explained . Can a phobia ever be explained ? Alan Alda is great ! Nice to see Alda in a different role . The Avaiator shows that graph and politicts have not changed over the years . Worth watching . I give Aviator a . The movie show's Hugh's as a risk taker . |
402,972 | 453,228 | 265,086 | 8 | Realistic | This movie is a factually based , and done in a way of a real life documentary . My friend Tony told me about the book , and its pretty close to the movie . There is a mention ( very lightly ) about not having heavy armor , from what Tony told me because it would look bad on CNN , and if I remember right this event cost Bill Clinton about 17 points in the polls , he would have lost the election if it was called right away . I don't think CNN will affect foreign policy again , when they called for the US to help out a country , and Bush being ex CIA chief just wanted to convoy some food and get the hell out . This movie shows why . It's not a action movie I would call it more of a war / horror movie . We see what army life is about , how well trained the special forces are , and the confusion , and horror of war . The film is one constant feel of fear . It was accurate , but according to Tony left some of the grimmer parts out . Where the troops got lost because the city has no street names , a lot of women and children died because the war lords used them as shields , and spotters . You really feel bad for the men , and it must have been an eternity for help to arrive . |
402,885 | 453,228 | 80,487 | 8 | Funny | I like this film , and it ages well . I don't know anyone who did not like this film ; 6 . 9 ranking that's got to be wrong . This movie had the perfect cast , everyone was not at their hight of fame yet , and if this film was done a few years later they could never afford the budget . Ted Knight is highly unrated in this film , because of the other stars , but watch him closely and see the comic tension he creates . Give this movie a chance . |
403,290 | 453,228 | 107,206 | 8 | One of Eastwood's better ones | Well , Clint is a secret service man , who gets the much younger girl , ever wonder why its never the other way around , and has to battle and evil assassin . I wish they would stop this phone calling by the bad guy in this type of movie ; too over done like someone hiding in the back seat of a car , or a friend shooting someone before the hero gets shot . This film has tension , and fear . I like this film . |
402,573 | 453,228 | 1,032,131 | 8 | Warning I think I figured this season out ! | Good story . I love how they took care of all the Demons . Dean is pretty common scene smart . The episode is like a zombie movie . I believe the end of the world preview was in this episode . A few things I figured out . Ruby is a plant pushing Sam . All of Ruby's help is to gain there trust . Everything else is lies , demon's lie . What a evil solution Ruby had for the problem . Sam would have turned dark side listening to Ruby . Bella is involved with the scheme . Bella told Dean she was not going to sell the colt , but stoled the colt for other reason . I think Dean is going kill Sam after watching the Mystery spot show . The trickster told Sam that Dean will be the death of him . All the subplots are coming together . Rubys big guilt trip at the ending cenments the main story together . ( In my opinion ) Let us hope Bobby can help the brothers out . . Funny , many of the supporting characters never seem to live long in the series . |
403,354 | 453,228 | 1,032,140 | 8 | I did not mind this episode . | I did not mind this episode . The show is running out of ideas . The creators are using humor to fill story lines . Sam and Dean are screwed up . We learn up the brother past to understand why . Sam and Dean must fight a very stupid pagan gods in this show . It is like Christmas kills the pagans . I get the inside joke . We come a long way from sacrificing people . At lest they mention Jesus birthday . Will the 2 protagonist ever find peace . They did for just one day . Might not be perfect , but they tried . . What will the new year bring ? They need a couple of new characters . Where is the FBI ? I think this show will give kids nightmares . I like the Santa Clause bum . |
403,076 | 453,228 | 245,844 | 8 | Revenge | Excellent movie , with my favorite time frame of Napolian France , where duels and honor meant everything . It was done accurately , unlike the Titanic for its time frame . ( No one sounded like a surfer ) The story of revenge is sweet , where one satisfies their hatred of past wrongs . The story twists , and bends perfectly , like the films of the 70's which covered this area . The lead actor played his role perfectly , and Guy Pearce is a good villain . This film is a must see and do not wait for video . |
402,966 | 453,228 | 87,050 | 8 | 4 . 7 something must be wrong | This film is so original , only King could think of this . An evil presence in the corn field affects all , but 2 of the children . The town follows this evil creature . Two adult drivers end up in this hidden town , and find it void of any adults . This film is scary in a twisted way , a more scarier way than your usual horror movie , because of these children's twisted religion . |
402,917 | 453,228 | 197,151 | 8 | Not bad or worse than any other news show . | FoX news is just another news show . Not better or worse than anyother news show . People complain of Fox news being slanted more to the far right . I disagree ! Fox news was ahead of news trend . When news was more left leaning , and some shows where manufacturing news via opinion fox news and Rush Limbaugh were a schock to the system . Now every news cast has a right-wing show or person on staff commentary . I believe with satellite radio , more TV stations and internet the media is much more careful to slant an issue because of how easy the viewer can access a reproof . Fox is ahead of it time , and schoking then , but now just average news . . |
402,667 | 453,228 | 373,883 | 8 | Disturbing | Rob must have a Ph D in trailer trash . I hate to see what he has experienced in life for the film is very close to what I really know . I live in a city in Canada which has it share of domestic disasters and crime . Haddonfield must be a gritty steel town , for there seemed to be no balanced people in the film ; just rude and crude people . The film was very disturbing , a couple of people left the theater which was a good idea . The movie is gory , but not in a violent way . The home Michael grew up in was cold , abusive , ( verbally ) full of shame , no morals or respect , and no one cared . I learned from the neighbourhood I grew up in , and my life at the plant that people snap or break . Hell , creates anger and rage . The emotionless mask is the persona of a hallow man eaten away by anger and rage . The only outlet or expression for Michael is violence . A movie of a sick town , which knows only sex and violence . No love or compassion in this film . To close to real life . Bullies do cry when they get beat up . . This film is like seeing too much of real life . |
402,968 | 453,228 | 265,349 | 8 | Suspenseful | This film disturbed me with the questions it asked . What if there is evil out there , and it involves death ? Would we be able to understand it ? The answer is No . Many of the questions Richard Gere has in this movie will not be answered , and he learns to get on with his life . His stay in this small town is unpleasant , the the story builds until the dramatic conclusion . I will not ruin this film for the first time viewer , but I sure would not answer the phone after seeing this film . |
403,144 | 453,228 | 90,305 | 8 | 80's 80's 80's | God bless the 80's , and may they live on way after their time ! This film captures the 80's geeks , preps , and class rivalry . It was a hard time to fit in , but a fun time , like most teenagers , I had these fantasies that this movie reflects on . I can not believe they got Wes from the Road Warrior to do a part . The scene where the computer animated women talks to Michael Halls parent is hilarious , but sick . The stuff going out of the chimney , the MX missile , and the kitchen turning blue is funny . Bill Paxion or chet is a classic wait and see what happens to him . Anyways rent it live it and be it ! |
403,247 | 453,228 | 498,399 | 8 | Another good movie with a 70's feel | Another good movie with a 70's feel . If any of the IMDb readers reading my critique watch late night movies , like myself , they will notice a 7ups or Marathon man gritty 70's style to ' We own the night ' . A strong drama about family , tradition , crime , and the interaction of individuals in society . Great script , excellently executed by the powerful cast of Phoenix , Wahlberg , and Duvell . The near ending part with smoking the bad guy out is powerful . The full circle of who we are is brought out with Phoenix's character development . The real Phoenix is a cop , not the Phoenix of the club whose friends are the ones who betray him . There are the themes of honesty over deception and compassion over selfishness ! The prodigal son has returned . . Run don't walk to see ' We own the night . |
402,680 | 453,228 | 100,135 | 8 | This movie is hilarious | No this film is not about that New Wave 80's band from Australia , but its a funny film . This movie is satire , and over the top characters to the max . I love it ! David Keith as the unbalanced ex Vietnam vet supervisor is great . " I hate cops " and " I even hate rent a cops more " is great . He pushes an already unbalanced situation farther . One feels for the pizza guy , and the part " we give no food to the enemy " . It has no real slow parts . There is a chemistry between Martin and Emelo . I wish they would act together again . Even has an un wimpy environmental theme to it . Watch it today , get the movie NOW ! |
402,397 | 453,228 | 181,689 | 8 | Cruise bounces back | SPOILER ! ! ! ! After Cruise's last 2 horrible movies , he bounces back . Another bomb like Vanilla Sky would have destroyed his career . Interesting sci-fi film with the issue of determinism versus free will . It would be scary if the future was set . At least being human we all have free will to decide what we will do and what path one will take in life . The film had a happy together ending which is nice considering the content of the film . The eye ball scene is pretty gross . |
402,530 | 453,228 | 60,196 | 8 | Well done | This is a long movie , and it seems short ; that makes it a good film . Funny and at times unbelievable , the movies strong point is its satire of the west . It is a good story , and well acted . The film is more of a art forum than your traditional western . One point the director portrays in this film , is how gritty the west was , and how cruel the world is when the wicked play on their terms . Worth seeing . |
402,534 | 453,228 | 84,602 | 8 | Awesome | Spoilers Stallone writes a great script , with an excellent cast . It is about hunger , determination , and eye of the tiger . The film portrays Mr T as a hungry new fighter with intensity who challenges the champion , and Rocky has to over come the challenges of staying on top . Hulk Hogan is in this film , and adds great comic relief to the boxer wrestler scenario . Great script , with Rock blaming himself for Mickeys death , and you feel his pain when Mickey dies , and Carl Weather's comes into the picture as Rocky's mentor for a favor . This is movie if you watch it feeling low , it will motivate you . |
403,299 | 453,228 | 265,459 | 8 | Original | Spoiler ! It is nice to see a movie that is original and has not been done before . Robin Williams plays another weirdo with past demons in this film . I'm starting to wonder if this is his new type of character . Williams who has a bad family past adopts a photo perfect family who are not perfect that have their own demons . He finds out about their infidelities and it cracks him . He goes over the deep end . I like how the store he works at has all the similarities of Wal-Mart ; they called it Sav-Mart . I am surprised Wal-Mart hasn't sued them . The employees even wear the same blue vest . This guy has trouble coping with reality . A whole bunch of outside events catch up to him and the viewer gets to find out if he is a violent man . Watch the film and find out . I am glad I went to see this one in the theatre as I was pleasantly surprised . |
402,353 | 453,228 | 74,860 | 8 | Is it Safe ? | The best line in this classic film . What a cast Will , Larry , Dust & Roy with a strong story . This is Hofman's best acting performances , and one I believe he can not out do . The story is about a young college student , who's brother gets him involved indirectly with a Nazi war criminal . I will not ruin this story for you , but the line " Is it safe " will for ever be imprinted in your mind after you see the film . Suspense , horror , and tension makes this film . Hoffmen is also knowing as creepie in this film . What else can one ask for . |
402,580 | 453,228 | 855,641 | 8 | Many plot ploys | The Dean and Jo sexual tension plot ploy is implemented on the many stories and sub stories which intertwine in the complex series Super Natural . Did Jo go on the hunt because of Dean ? Did she go for she wants to be a hunter ? Maybe both or even because of family fighting ? Jo acts annoyed and makes it deliberately obvious that she is ignoring Dean . The story heightens with Jo needing to be rescued by Sam and Dean . Did Sam and Dean screw up ? They find out later that John Winchester ( their dad ) mistakenly killed Jo's father . The cold as ice song hits the mark for humor when Sam and Dean drive Jo and her ( over protective ) mother home . . Will Dean and Jo meet up again ? I guess we will find out in season three . |
402,347 | 453,228 | 90,180 | 8 | Strong film | This story is very 80's , and is heavily influenced by the TV show Miami Vice . The style , clothes , music , and characters reflect that time period exactly . The direction of this film gives a slick feel ; where its action , style , and seedy underside all blend in well . The story could be very predictable , but with its plots twists , and the theme that follows the saying be careful when you go hunting for monster not to become one yourself gives it originality . It has some mind blowing stunts that create tension , and if you watch the film Ronin you see where they got the car chase idea from . In all this film gives a feeling of being involved in events that go too fast , too dangerous , and too twisted . Its shows what happens to the heart when the individual becomes obsessed with what he seeks . Watch this one and love it . |
402,833 | 453,228 | 228,750 | 8 | Must see | This is a very good film , Russel Crowe probably practices method acting , like Robert De Nero . Crowe played the part of a mercinary to the tee . He walked , talked , and behaved , as one would . This film is neither politically correct , or Hollywoodish ie Rambo phoneyish . If this film followed a book , the script is very close to the true story . The strong part of this film is its realism , it conveys a message where you understand the difficulty , hardness , and ruthlessness of the situation . We do not live in a black and white world of politically correctness or Hollywoodism , but a complex one which is grey , not black and white . The answers to questions somtime can not be yes or no , and Crowe realizes this and plays a realist , with a few plot twist or breaks , puts information together for a great conclusion . This former S . A . S soldier , does a job is the best description for this film . P . S Caruso plays the role of the other mercenary perfectly this could restart his carrier . |
402,581 | 453,228 | 939,444 | 8 | Funny | One of the best episodes for season 2 , which comes out on DVD on September 11 . The plot ploy of Sam's and Dean's tension towards one another is excellent . The trickster uses again them . Everyone's perception of the story is different , as we see between the two brothers . Sam and Dean both over exaggerate one another's behaviour . Slow , dancing with an alien , and being eating by a sewer alligator is a couple of the tricksters ploys . Tall Tales over the top and humorous ending release the humorous tension of the story . . The trickster really looked like a goof . I love the trickster's more a than a toilet seat comment . I know a couple people the trickster should visit . |
402,380 | 453,228 | 1,206,073 | 8 | Good show | I like this show . Started slow , but the episode picked up as the show progressed . I wonder if the slow start was the directors intention ? Phone calls from the dead cause people to die . Dean hears form what could be his father ? Can Dean's dad be real ? Sam is the realist for a change of character while Dean is not . A major story change for the series ! The plot twist at the end is great . I never would have guest . The part where people have more communication , but less community is so true . We live in such a society where people try to grab hope through new technology . for the show . I wish season 3 could have been longer . |
402,328 | 453,228 | 963,178 | 8 | Just saw it great film ! | Just saw it great film . The International is about a bank which uses illegal methods for their investments . Resonates well with the audience after the banking crisis . Well written , directed and acted . One of Owens best performances to date . Watts had a strong supporting role . I would buy the blue ray for The International . I give the movie 8 dollars out of 10 . The movie makes me wonder what do the banks invest in which we have no idea about ? The ending of the movie asks these questions . Watch the ending credits . I would watch this film again . One of the best gun battles I have ever seen in a movie . The gun battle alone is worth the 8$ . |
402,681 | 453,228 | 115,571 | 8 | Better than Independence Day | With that X files UFO craze of the mid 90's my wife and I went to a double billed drive inn . A wimpy PC Independence Day and its competition the Arrival where duking it out . The Arrival won this , a third round TKO , a no contest fight . Sheen like Tyson destroyed his career and had the potential for greatness . This film is more of a mystery than Independence day . I love the part where Sheen offers people free fiber optics in order to trick them for use of their dishes at night . Under rated , and a little to ahead of its time . |
402,890 | 453,228 | 100,232 | 8 | Worth watching | 4 . 9 rating that must be a mistake . This movie too much fun . Unbelievable in spots , but that is done for an entertaining story . Interesting plot , with a never before done ending , great stunts ( ie the 1 mile parachute drop ) strong cast , perfect acting , and the last twenty minutes keeps you on the edge of you seat . This movie is well researched , I liked the detail of using the Russian assault vehicale in Beruit , who ever researched this movie did their home work . It is very original . |
402,449 | 453,228 | 408,396 | 8 | I do not watch religious shows and I like this one ! | I do not like most religious shows and I like Joel Osteen . Most religious shows are preachy , dry , boring , and have no reference to modern living . Jesus taught in story and so does Joel . The viewer can relate to the story and apply the stories to modern living . I like advice about enemies at work self doubt in life , etc . Much better than stories with guilt and a heavy message . The " this is my bible " start of the show starts with a bang and the rest of the message just takes off from there . Way to go God , Joel and everyone else involved in the show . Well paced , . Pretty cool to have a Church out of an old basketball arena . How big 18 000 or 25 , 000 ? |
402,866 | 453,228 | 315,398 | 8 | Great TV movie , it remind me of Die Hard . | This is TV's version of Die Hard , and I like it . Every aspect of the film works , and does not have any of the annoying poor quality one expects from TV movies . It is entertaining , and not sappy either , ok a little . I believe it was filmed in Portage Place Mall in my home town . This is where my best friend Rick Krager and I would hang out on weekends and girl watch . It is funny how the camera angles make the mall look ten times bigger , a scene is at the old Eatons mall entrance , which no longer exists with the new arena going up . Watching this film is not waste of time like most made for TV movies . I give it an . |
402,851 | 453,228 | 84,787 | 8 | Great movie | Any where but here ? Is a line Kurt Russel says in this film . It is such a good film . I can watch it 20 times and never tier of it . You will stay glued to the set with this story , and when the people monster out you will jump out of your seat . Russel character is a role model for myself . He is not a wimpy , politically correct 90's guy ; who's into his own feelings , but a sarcastic , realist who is a hard drinking and toughf . Somone you would need in a situation like this . The suporting cast is just a good . Your typical group of guys with faults and different personalities , that would act stressed out in these situations . The plot makes alot of sence and is truly scary . Nice to see a believable film with real type people in it . Not your typical perfect hollywood types who a 2 dimentional story . |
403,355 | 453,228 | 873,053 | 8 | I like this episode | What happens when society breaks down . It is everyman for him self . The two brothers go to a near by town to find a hospital an get supplies . In the end the Ravenwood mercenaries are raiding the town . We got social break down . I do because I can mentality . The do it for it is right doctor they find is broken man for hard time kill these type of people , but the doctor is a much needed asset for the town . The subplots on the more social side are replace with the more nasty reality of life , which makes the show slicker . I believe event will only get worse for the town . I hope help is soon . Where is the federal government ? When will electricity be restored ? There is trouble coming down the highway ! What is next . |
402,391 | 453,228 | 298,130 | 8 | Evil | This film was disturbing , scary and intriguing . The movie startsout strong and revolves around a mystery . Some of it is stupid , but most of the film is okay . The stupid stuff gets cleared up lateron in the film . I thought the movie was going to have anotherstupid horror film ending , but I was shocked . It leaves room for apart two . It is worth seeing in the theater . Do not see it if you donot like scary or evil movies . |
402,610 | 453,228 | 69,599 | 8 | Good Cop show | The 70's was the era of the police shows . Police story , Police women , Street's of San Fran , and SWAT were a few . Working evenings and not being able to sleep I started watching Kojak , and started reliving my childhood . The show is better than I remember for having some realism . The show's producers must have done research . Dated in spots , and has a TVish formula , but still good . I like the Crocker character . Everyone seems too grumpy on the show . My wife says the introductions of females in the work environment may have a calming effect on the work environment . ( could be a possibility ) The characters do show a soft side . Worth watching late night if one can not sleep . Beats Elim a date . . Only if I could stay awake for a whole show . My wife likes Kojak's sayings . |
402,766 | 453,228 | 265,662 | 8 | Believe in your dreams | What is meant to be will happen . Saint Rita interceded , and with God anything can happen is the message . This movie displays hope in a hopeless world . Which is a good message , and an inspiration for all . This is a happy story , and a movie about values and people . Where I work many of my coworkers hope for others to fail , and this movie shows what supportive people can achieve . |
402,441 | 453,228 | 263,488 | 8 | This movie gave my wife the creeps | This movie builds its fear on tension . This style is better than what the majority of horror films do , where gore and shock is the catalyst for fear . They say anticipation of death is worse than death itself , which is what this film is all about . When they stumble upon Jeeper Creeper , we do not know if it is a man or beast . It methodically stalks its victims , and when night falls , the fear worsen . The conclusion ties up all loose ends , along with a shocking memorable ending . |
402,566 | 453,228 | 839,980 | 8 | Funy movie | Read the old ABA web page and find out how much of the movie is true . Semi pro has many influences from the ABA . The slam dunk style , bear wrestling , and cow milking contests were some of the funny material which made a great movie . Real life is funnier than fiction . Semi pro has great material too work with . A goofy movie with a no better goofy actor than Will Ferrell . Ferrell pulls off a hard acting job of a fly by the seat of his pants owner / coach / manager and player etc ABA operator . The acting and directing is great but the true star which shines is the script , which is influenced by real life . Low ball humor , not for the whole family . . My buddy Dax and his wife enjoyed the movie . What does the Tropics have to do with Flint , Michigan ? I think the team moved from Florida . Funny the Nuggets almost went to the final in their first year with the NBA . I guess that is why the NHL stripped the WHA Jets of their team before they merged . Just an after thought . |
403,253 | 453,228 | 381,849 | 8 | Good fall movie | . A good movie well directed , acted , and an interesting story . Reminds me of the spaghetti Westerns , with Yuma's style and artistic imagery . Russell Crowe is an outstanding actor . Crowe excels in any role . In Yuma , Crowe is rough , but smart and gentle at the same time . Crowe does not dominate a leading role , but dominates an entire film . It does not matter what the role is , Crowe adapts and becomes that character . I love the ending where Crowe is a bad guy only for the adventure , not the money , and wants to see Bale impress his boy . See this Western at the Theater . LionGate Films is releasing some risky movies like Saw that set new trends . Bravo ! |
402,576 | 453,228 | 829,062 | 8 | A good show | Every body loves a Clown is a good show for starting the second season . The show introduces new characters , while the Dean and Sam characters develop , and the clown itself is a great bad guy . The new characters add new life to the series . Jo and Dean have a sexual tension which is obvious . Jo is not over taken by Dean's demeanor ! Ash adds comic relief with line's like being the serious up front party in the back comment . Bobby and the mother is the new anchor to replace John . The Sam and Dean conflict is great which shows that Sam is a little smarter than Dean . Dean's super cool behaviour is killing him . Believe me shock and pain will get to you , I am a lot like Dean , and Dean breaks with his behavior towards the Impala . Dean still has his defensive wit with the I feel like a soccer mom with the mini-van to replace the car . I really hated the evil clown , we all know a evil clown was going to hit the show one day , and I enjoyed the clown getting it . Winchester Boys are about 10 or 11 and 1 in the win column . I believe the Trickster is the only one to beat them . . |
402,980 | 453,228 | 829,063 | 8 | Not bad | The plot devices ' In my time of dying drives the second season . The devices are : What is with Sam ? What is with the big secret ? Dean's guilt because of dads death . In my time of dying has two stories . 1 Dean is like the character Sam of the movie ghost . There is a reference to the movie in this show . The 2nd story , the viewer learns more about the yellow eyed demon , and how much the demon wants John to die . I just bought the 2nd season and notice the other episodes tie in with this first one . I wonder what season 3 will be like ? Is Sam a changed person ? Will Dean be the same person again ? Will the series die with the death of the Winchesters foe ? |
403,281 | 453,228 | 814,022 | 8 | I liked it | I loved this movie . I found Bangkok Dangerous well directed , acted , and executed . The pace and flow of the movie keeps the viewer enthralled with the characters and story . Cage's character has highs and lows where the character , Joe , deals with fast paced action , melded with slow paced personal character development created by his interaction with other characters . The movie gives the viewer a breather between the intenseness of the movie's action . The supporting actors with Cage create a realism of the dangers of Bangkok . I found the movie pays homage to the 1973 classic ' The Mechanic ' . The other homage the movie pays is to the 1973 Bond film ' Man with the Golden Gun ' A great movie to watch . I have notice the trend of cross social interchange in movies lately . Where one sees the mix of North American and Asian language and culture in movies like " The Ring " etc . I find the change refreshing where one sees something new in films . Other than the same old same old . 8 gunfights out of 10 for Bangkok Dangerous . |
403,084 | 453,228 | 106,308 | 8 | Stupid , fun | I really like this film , it makes me laugh . It is weird , and funny at the same time . It has a book that bites , and other stupid gags . I watched the collector edition , with the 2 different endings . I like the original ending myself . This is not for the serious crowd ! |
402,637 | 453,228 | 269,347 | 8 | Wrong Wrong Wrong you all got it wrong and missed the message . | Spoilers ! ! ! ! ! Excellent film , it has its flaws , but I understood the message . The movie starts out without all the stupid credits at the beginning , but with a Johnny Cash Bible verse , with a few changes , because it is from the killers mind . Del Toro wants to die and as in the Bible when God tested Abraham about sacrificing his only son , Del toro wants to die and views Jones , as a father , and his actions calls Jones out . The movie starts in with a violent Kosvo operation , and this shows his battle stress , and what made him mentally ill . He explains this illness with his nonsense about so many chickens get slaughtered a year ; meaning that his hunting skill has evolved him higher on the food chain , and he is acting out nature's plan , and Jones is the only one higher in this chain . The message in this film not about violence , but what it does too men's souls . Which is evident with Jones at the ending . |
402,905 | 453,228 | 94,291 | 8 | Michael Douglas plays a villain | Funny , how history repeats itself . With Enron , World com , and now Tyco this movie is ahead of its time . Now the corporate world goes beyond the unethical standards this movie brought up . Sheen's second best performance after Platoon . Douglas shines as Gordon Gecko with his greed is good speech . I believe profits and technology is good , or we would be economically left behind without it . Greed in itself , can destroy the economy , environment , and peoples ' lives . What happens to the economy if business destroys the middle class ? I took economics and no goods would be sold , and America's economic might would fall . This movie addresses this important issue . Greed vs values , the country and peoples lives . The funny irony is when Gecko said the air manufacture could not compete with deregulation that is exactly what happened . There is a reality with what the analysts say also . |
402,469 | 453,228 | 121,765 | 8 | Rivals Spiderman | So far this year the competition for best film will be Spiderman and this movie . It started out slow ; but intriguing . No new surprise characters in this film , ie . Hans Solo . The best character had to be Yoda . He is so ugly that he's cute . We learn more about the Jedi in this episode ; maybe too much . The film has a Starship trooper influence to it , which adds to it . The ending was disappointing ; no conclusion . It just left you asking " Is that it ? " Did they run out of time ? Maybe they should of cut some of the relationship scenes . Worth seeing on the big screen though . |
403,174 | 453,228 | 837,741 | 8 | A good tribute to other movies . | Children shouldn't play with dead things I believe is a movie ? This show is a tribute to Pet Semitary . I guess Stphen King should get some sort of tribute . The girlfriend is raised from the dead from a geek who could not go out with her when she was alive and gets more of gal then he thought , including a broken nick . I like how they get her back to the grave ploy . I like Dean's street smarts to figure out the grave with dead grass omen , and the cheating friend . The best part is where we learn how Dean , like myself holds everything inside , and covers his feeling with bulletproof attitude . Sam gets the real Dean out . Dean is over the edge and is scary . A good episode . . I hope to see more of Dean's weaker side in season 3 . |
403,252 | 453,228 | 921,622 | 8 | Like Pulp Fiction | Like the movie Pulp Fiction , Dean has a question of faith . A freak occurrence or an act of God ? The ending asks the faith question . Sam has faith , while Dean analyzes the mystery . Both prove their points . I believe and was taught God many times uses gentle pushes for his will . The avenging angel theory does God get angry ? The car chase at the ending is great . True Dean Winchester at his best ! The punk runs like one would expect . I like Dean's anger . Dean's round character development is expanded . Dean is a man who has seen too much , and is burnt out . A driven man with a sense of purpose . Houses of the Holy shows there is hope for Dean and room for faith . A sign of redemption for Dean's character flaws . |
403,276 | 453,228 | 800,308 | 8 | A good solid Western ! | Appaloosa is a good solid Western ! I love the directing , script , and writing . Ed Harris plays a good role as a crazed gun for hire sheriff . Virgo's character plays the other sheriff who has better social smarts . The plot unfolds with the women character who at first is the side story then with the plot twists becomes the main story is a great plot device . Great script ! Ed's gunfighter with no social skills is played as a mark by the much socially smarter women . The movie has a two fold story of those with physical power Haris , and those with social power and how they socially interact and maintain power in a social setting . The social power was winning out in the movie . When the protagonists Harris in the story is losing out to the antagonist who can not beat out Harris physically but reverts to new tactics of socially taking over the town one see you can win a battle in more than one way . Well , all I can say is the violent side strikes back . Good movie . A deep message . |
402,641 | 453,228 | 259,446 | 8 | It is never too late in life | That is the message I got from this film . It is nice to see a fellow Winnipeger doing well . I thought this movie was going to be an Artsie film , but I was pleasantly surprised . I understand the humour in this film as I grew up in East Kildonan and a lot of my friends ' families were this way . All cultures have the good and the bad , but in the end it is what type of people they are . I believe Windex will fix anything . I wonder how much of this is from real life or was it all made up . It was worth renting . This one should of been one that I should of seen in the theatre . |
403,176 | 453,228 | 469,641 | 8 | surprise of the summer | Surprise of the summer ! W T C shows the worst which happened bestowed by the enemies of America , while Americans show the best of humanity with the attack . A long movie , which did not drag . The story unfolds on several fronts . The coming together of America , and the human side . I believe the film is a dedication for all the heroes of that tragic day . A few questions the film never answered . Why did the gun fire by itself ? Why was there a flame ball underground ? Cage's character was right that the elevator shaft is the strongest part of the building to hide under . . I wonder if there will be any spin off movies about the wars we presently face . Was there a ex-marine character that actually presently himself to help find survivors ? If so , Kudos to him . |
403,337 | 453,228 | 99,653 | 8 | This is a good film | My wife loves this film , and I found it more then a romance movie . A intriguing story , of deception , death , the after life , and greed . This is a great film , with character you care about , suspense , romance , and a fresh script . This film made Patricks carrier , and after this film he chose a few films that killed his chances of acting in higher budget films . I believe if he picked a couple more scripts like this one he would be on the same level as Tom Cruse . I think the politically correct 90's found him too macho for their tastes , and it drove him to do that film about India which helped kill his carrier . In the end this film is a little about what Patrick could have been , a true international star . |
402,865 | 453,228 | 283,632 | 8 | WoW what a positive step in horror movies . | This film is a positive change in horror movies . Like Wes Craven's Scream that describes the rules , or formulas of horror movies ; this one breaks them all . Horror films like Scream have gotten boring . The old formula where the strong woman who finds her inner strength survives , or the updated version that reverses that black comedian who joked about the black guy who always dies first . They now still have the single woman who lives , and the black cop or director we may believe has died comes around in the ending . Not much of a change for the horror fan . Now that 2 people live instead of one , you still have the annoying over macho sarcastic guy being one of the first too die , the bimbo is either last or second to die and she usually dies awful , and the worst fate always goes too the comic relief fat guy that no one likes . I always feel sorry for him . This film gets rid of all that , and has no practical jokes gone bad or unjust revenge as its story either . It has a deadly fatalistic feel to it , and a shocker of an ending , which scares and disturbs the viewer . It will leave an impression , not as good as the Ring , but a brave new horror movie , for a new century . |
