Hippies hoot and holler at R & R songfest
If hippies were all about peace and love why did Stills try to whip ass and take names ? Amateur camera work and some really bad acts couldn't take away from the coolness of this documentary . I never heard of several of the performers and never cared 2 cents for Baez or Mitchell , but CSN & Y were worth the price of a...

Bigshot buys a newspaper
What's all the furor over this film ? It was sometimes interesting , sometimes dull . . . in the end , it was just another movie . So an arrogant , overweight newspaper publisher talks out both sides of his mouth about his fellow man , while blowing money and wasting time with some shrill soprano slut . So what ? Old f...

And ended with my kissing it off
Run of the mill romantic comedy with Ford as a harried newlywed with big time financial and spouse woes . The wife expects him to be a celibate and at the same time causes him to be jealous as she gets cozy with a local bullfighter . A few laughs but merely mediocre for the most part .

Too stupid for words
This was what passed for entertainment when I was a teen . Speaking of which , I saw very few , if any , actual teens in this production .

a stagecoach travels into dangerous territory

This film could make one angry
Sandler's character , Dave Buznik , kept getting the short end of the stick in all his business and social engagements . He was simply a nice , easy going guy who only wanted to get by on the job without any ugly entanglements to complicate his life . I wonder how many ' easy going ' types are seething volcanoes inside...

He just wanted to be left alone with his horses
Not Bronson's best effort , but not a total washout either . An often used storyline where the big rancher wants to take over the entire range , forcing out the little man . Things are made even more tense when the little man falls for the big man's sister . Except for a " Chato's Land " type shootout and a couple of f...

No more war ! Yeah , right .

Barely watchable film dealing with a super cop who uses a super computer to find felons before they actually become felonious .

Rarely do the millions of other deaths at the hands of Hit...

I heard nothing but glowing comments on this film for years , but when I finally saw it there was no laughter from me .

Too much kissin ' , not enough dissin '
A Mexican American has his hands full trying to fit into both societies . Not a bad western , but not so wonderful either : the usual gun running / renegade indian / crooked Mexican bit .

Oh , brother !
Dated but cute look at God's take on people and their reaction to him . I didn't think the film was particularly amusing , but I did appreciate some of God's thoughts on how we earthlings could work to get along better . Seemed to me as though the producer concocted a humanistic , feel good creator as opposed to a more...

Not too good , not too bad
I can't say I liked or disliked The Crow . The acting was good , but the story didn't appeal to me . I suppose the vendetta theme has been done so much that I have become tired of it . Also , sometimes it seemed the plot was hard to follow . It could have been a better movie , but it was just to simplistic .

corny , but lovable animal story
This was pretty corny and unbelievable . What I call a silly drama . The acting was good , but the plot was totally unrealistic . At least , I don't think a monkey can fly a plane . The government is experimenting with chimps to see how long they can fly a plane in a simulated situation after taking a lethal dose of ra...

Anybody want a brand new baby ?
Didn't care for this one , way too slow and the subject was uninteresting . Why do folks want to adopt , especially from a pack of mobile home misfits ? One look at these losers and I would have been hanging an exit . This trash couldn't afford a whiff of fresh air but they always had their beer and ciggies . Not a bad...

Americans and Japs exchange ordinance in Tokyo Bay
This was made in 1943 and it shows it . Clearly a propaganda piece designed to stir up patriotic emotions , it was a mix of mom and apple pie and tense battle drama . Grant played a tough minded yet basically tender hearted skipper whose objective was to drive his submarine right into Tokyo Harbor . His mission was to ...

Marriage doesn't work
Had the entire film been as funny as the last segment , I would have rated it higher . The first 2 were full of dull , sexy , or bitchy dialogue , but the last was a real ripper . The distraught mom and the overwrought dad had me in the floor with their idiotic antics . I don't care for Neil Simon comedies ; at least t...

Spenser and Hawk go off to Canada to nail the killers of an American tycoon's family . Along the way they uncover a plot to assassinate an African leader which ties in with their own investigation . I couldn't get interested in the show , it just floated along sluggishly . Parker's books are better .

Thugs dance and sing their way across Chitown
Pretty good musical with some good songs and a great little dance by Sammy . My favorite of all the hoods was Falk ; his corny tough guy act was really funny . The jokes and gags were pretty lame by today's standards I suppose , but I still got a few good laughs . Not a great film but worth seeing .

Death comes to us all . . . hopefully not as painfully as this film
Not one of Price's better movies . Way too slow , and the acting was pretty bad . I did like the colorful costumes and the great looking castle , though . The book was 10 times better than this dull film . Bypass it .

Cunning , caped Count & choice chicks chill out in cool , creepy castle
Loosely based on the Stoker book , this film manages to be just another vampire movie . Very typical Hammer fare - great sets and props , mediocre story and acting . Why do the folks in these pictures always go to the crypts just before or after sunset ? Hello ? An ok film if one likes this genre .

Honey , I think this film shrunk my brain
I guess I didn't just hate this show , but it didn't grab me real good either . It wasn't as good as the original , but much better than " Honey , I Blew Up the Kid " , which was pretty dull . The race car scene and the bubble episode were fun , but I suppose I feel this horse has been run into the ground .
