The Book of Ruth: Journey of Faith (2009)
The Story of Nyomi
Ruth seems to play as a subcharacter... I hope I can finish the second half of this movie. The evil mom of Ruth was a bit over the top... Sheesh... And Major plastic surgery! Lol
Much to much makeup, lots of cheesy acting... However, I thought it was much better than the older story of Ruth, where she plays a temple priest...no thanks. This movie follows scripture a bit better, but as already mentioned... There are many liberties!
Carmen has talent, but as a singer, Not as an actor! (Satan, bite the dust). The two actors have good chemistry...
Was good to see my friend Grizzly Adams again...
The Last Samurai (2003)
Good Flick...
I like Tom Cruise although not as much as Rosie. I saw this file because it seemed like your typical 'Braveheart' "dude-flick". I wasn't disappointed. My only beef is that it was quite violent, almost too much so. Other than that the story was great, the acting fantastic, especially the guy that played Katzamoto. Cruise was ok but as usually was a little hammy with the girl. Great scenery, great soundtrack...8 stars!.
Whale Rider (2002)
Very Very Good
This movie, unlike others of today, is simple and not bombarded with special effects and complex sub-plots.
Very heart-warming tale and just PLAIN GOOD. Great acting.
Bring your tissues....
Daddy Day Care (2003)
Nice Family Film...
Gave this 6/10....
Good clean fun, the kids were cute, sometimes funny although it seemed a bit forced...
Eddie did a good job considering his humor is usually so vulgar.
Good rental, not sure I would spend the money to own...
The Master of Disguise (2002)
Bad....
Gave this 4/10...because I just gave "Once upon in Mexico" a 3...and it wasn't much better...
Overall, this movie had some semi-funny parts, but overall it was just kinda dumb...
Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003)
Sorry...just a bad movie
Can't complain too much, haven't seen one this bad in quite a while. Choppy plot, bad acting, general stupidity. Funny how the bad guys never hit and the good guys never miss....the bad guys always aim and the good guys always shoot from hip or behind their back, etc. This movie is not for the intelligent.
On the plus, Depp's acting was good...his character wasn't. In fact, if you left his character out of the movie, the plot wouldn't even have been affected...what was that character's purpose anyone...like they created a spot for Depp to act to help make the movie decent...didn't work, IMHO.
Secondly, the music was fair to good....
Overall just a bad movie....3/10
My Side of the Mountain (1969)
Sparked my interest....
I kinda liked this movie, but after reading how fabulous the book is and how horrible the movie was (not that bad)...it made me want to run out and get the book...
I agree with the other reviewer about the death of the falcon and then awkward ending...could have been done better...being a parent, I would like to have seen their reaction and how that relationship developed...
Rented this movie at the library, so no change out of my pocket...think I'll look for the book used also...
:)
The Four Feathers (2002)
I liked it more than most people....
Seems this movie is taking a beating...but I personally thought it was pretty good...
Although the movie is choppy, the story itself is fascinating and keeps you wanting more...this could easily have been a tremendous movie!
The end was a disappointment as your left not really sure of 'who got the girl'....
Equilibrium (2002)
Great Flick......
Great Plot, Great Acting....
Had there been no matrix, this would be a no-brainer '10' but I felt the two movies had to much scenic overlap....
Highly recommend.
K2 (1991)
hmmmm...
Pretty good flick.....climbing was good, story was ok...
Main character was kinda lame/obnoxious at times...was so stuck up...almost beyond being realistic.
Good Action
The Mountain (1956)
Neat Flick....
I like this movie...saw it on AMC w/o commercial interruption and must say it was very entertaining....
Yeah, the climbing is lame and staging is set...but what do you expect from a movie made in the '50s....very good story....moral
Pirates of Silicon Valley (1999)
Interesting...
Not that bad....what the film lacked in production value it more than made up for with its historical value.
Entertaining.....hard to leave TV even during commercial breaks.
I gave it a 7.
Fight Club (1999)
Wierd....
I gave this movie a seven....It was very slow for the first 45 minutes, then you couldn't seem to keep up with all that was happening. When the end comes down, your left thinking about all the stuff that happened....even the stuff you were sleeping through that 1st 45 minutes.
Pretty weird story. Kinda scary...really show's how out-of-control our minds can be.
I'm not sure if I liked it our not....gave it a seven for some good acting. IMHO, The bizarre sexual stuff could have been left out without dihibilitaing the movie in any way.
The Matrix (1999)
Very Good!!!!
Watched it for second time last night on PPV. Very good flick, well thought out and very sci-fi. Better the second time around since the plot is so complex. Not too violent, not too sexual, but don't let the kids watch.
Double Jeopardy (1999)
Not Bad
Ashley Judd does a very, very nice job. I'm usually critical of Tommy Lee Jones and some of his odd dramatics, but his role was small enough and his personality was perfect for the role.
I don't know how female prison is, but this movie sure didn't make it look all that tough.
Overall, a good flick and worth the 6 bucks.
Deep Blue Sea (1999)
Not deep at all...
Personally, I went to this movie with high expectations. I was expecting Jaws, and got computerized fish with a very unrealistic and laughable plot.
Most every intense scene seemed very intellectually weak. It was one of those...."yeah, right" type of movies. I had the most fun heckling my friend about the fact that he (used to) like it.
Pass on this one my friends....
Excalibur (1981)
One of my Favorites...
This is one my all time favorite movies, if you haven't seen it then by all means do....
Very underrated.
Very entertaining......class acting and riveting storyline.
I know you'll like it.
