Dogma (1999)
Simply Fantastic
This movie rocks so hard. Kevin Smith's fourth attempt at writing and directing is volumes above "Mallrats" and "Clerks" and just a little better than "Chasing Amy." Linda Fiorentino (as the last descendent of Christ) and the rest of the cast do a great job. This movie is being lambasted for it's religious views. I think any intelligent person can see that this movie is not trying to offend any ones religious views. Quite the opposite, this movie is showing religion in a new light, bringing it to my generation and making it accessible. I know I'm not the only person who saw this movie and is now tempted to read the bible. Kevin Smith, you are a genius...
Urban Legend (1998)
Almost Good
This could have been a great movie. A serial killer terrorizes a campus using urban legends to take out his victims. But somehow in between the performances and the abundance of victims (way too many, even for a slasher film) the movie is wasted. Not a single performance sticks out, not a single scene is memorable. Might be an enjoyabe rental. Check it out if you're an avid horror fan.
The Object of My Affection (1998)
How?
How could a movie with such a great premise go this wrong? A young woman (Jennifer Aniston) falls in love with a devastatingly gorgeous young man (Paul Rudd) who happens to be gay. The possibilities were endless. Instead they made this boring terrible movie. ONE good thing I can say: the performances by all of the women, and Paul Rudd are fantastic. But the movies just so bad... What a shame.
Roswell (1999)
The WB Scores Again
What a great show.
There is such a wealth of emotion in the performances of all the actors in the show. Being someone who despises sci-fi type movies and shows, I actually admire the premise for this show. Three teenagers in a high school are actually aliens that crash landed on our planet. One of the aliens, Max (the gorgeous Jason Behr), falls in love with a human girl, Liz. When she's shot down and killed in a diner one day he uses his supernatural powers to bring her back to life. And so begins there weird but beautiful love story. I love this show and I hope it's around for a long time.
I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)
Very Bothered
It's become so COOL to hate teen horror movies that this gem of a movie has taken such a beating. Despite it's ending the movie is spooky and fun and has a GREAT story running through it. Sarah Michelle Gellar and Ryan Phillipe steal the. A great movie, I recommend it to everyone.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997)
My Favorite Show
The best show on TV for the last three or four years, Buffy is the perfect balance of wit, horror, humor, and drama. The cast is sheer perfection.
Sarah Michelle Gellar has been cheated out of an Emmy for quite awhile now. Her role as the vampire slayer is very underrated.
I recommend this show to anyone who appreciates a fun, scary time.
