So Much So Fast (2006)

Very informational and inspiring

[3 April 2007]

I wish to congratulate Stephen's family and friends, and himself, for the amazing sense of togetherness and positive attitudes. The sense of contact between him and other people, and between all the people that are affected by him, seems to make it a very worthy human experience. He totally brings out the best out of people. I think he's a little extra special, because he has a really positive attitude and a really good sense of humor. It's not about pity, it's about being together as a family, a team, and finding strength.

This documentary shows how people can have a very rich fulfilling life, driven because of how someone special in their circle affects their life. It makes us take things take seriously, which makes things seem so much more worthwhile. A very educational and expiring experience this documentary was for me!

Trapped: Buried Alive (2002 TV Movie)

Who do they take us for?

[3/10 · 2 March 2007]

I can't figure out how anyone can get a budget for a movie this bad. It's like the TV station are desperate for anything, anything at all. They're buried underneath a bunch of snow, the electricity constantly flashes on and off, yet magically there is a background light that stays constant. Where does all this (fake) light come from? That, and all that stupid bickering between the characters. They seem to be more interested in complaining to each other than trying to invent ways to survive. It tries to create that feel of emergency and people helping. But because it's such bad directing and acting, you will not your Florence Nightingale fix with this flick, sorry. I'm joining the negative feedback, and I concur that this is one of the worst movies ever.

High Risk (1981)

Very worthwhile movie you will not regret

[10/10 · 8 December 2006]

This movie pulled me right in. A bunch of guys are bored with their lifestyle, and they decide to go rip off some money from a drug lord in Mexico. Now this is not your lame corny movie. The music is captivating, the choice of actors is A 1, and it shows. Check out the casting - Anthony Quinn, bionic woman, and a pile of other amazing actors. Outstanding performance from everyone on the set - they're all very convincing, and nothing seems out of place. It's got music from the Rolling Stones, but throughout the movie it has a 70's, but not disco uncool, tune that'll keep you focused. I really think this movie should have been recognized a lot more, and I disagree with the low ratings. Give this movie a go, if you can find it. I found it on DVD at a grocery store for $5 in Canada. Sit down with some popcorn or other snack, and savor the moment...
