The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005)

You'll laugh and snort at the same time watching this!

[8/10 · 29 March 2006]

I thought it was hilarious but I like dark, weird out of this world humor. The most memorable part is when the Arab and the black guy are arguing over a sale.

Not a film for the politically correct, so if you get offended easily, you shouldn't see it. I loved every minute of it, and the special features are great.

Just watch the film, you'll go out of your mind laughing, I did.

Watch the end credits to finish, you won't regret that either. LOL

I didn't have enough lines on my comments so this ending sentence is just me stating that to all of you since I want my comment posted. Gosh how long do I have to type before it tells me I can push submit? Should I try now? LOL

The Witches of Eastwick (1987)

This movie is HILARIOUS!

[10/10 · 29 October 2005]

From start to finish this movie delivers. I saw this movie when it came out in 1987 and then I recently saw it again last night. I'm 33 years old and in 1987 I was 15 years old, naive and didn't get any of the humor. The only thing I understood then was that there was a devil that came to Eastwick.

Seeing the movie again last night was so awesome. Jack Nicholson who is one of my favorite actors gave a stellar performance as the Devil. I recommend this movie to anyone wanting a good laugh. My favorite scene is the one where Jack Nicholson goes in front of the Church and also the confrontation he has with Cher's character. I must have rewound those scenes 8 times in a row last night.

Enjoy!

High Art (1998)

Love this film...

[9/10 · 25 July 2005]

I give this movie a 9 because it's not my all time favorite film but it's among my favorites. You get my meaning. First of all when I saw that this film was initially a lesbian film I was a little judgemental, since all of the lesbian films I've seen have sucked majorly. This one was really "intense". There was no going around issues here, things were thrown at you from a morbid love triangle standpoint involving women. I love the characters. Ally Sheedy did an excellent job returning with this Indie Film. I missed her since The Breakfast Club, St Elmos Fire and a few others. Ally is a cool chicka. I fell in love with Ally's character in High Art, she played a lesbian well. The director did a great job in depicting the gritty drug scenes in a not so good light, which I thought was wonderful, because I really wouldn't be able to handle it if they were to glamorize the issue. And the music! My goodness the music rocks the bells. Go see this movie, it rocks. It's so BOHO!

Combats de femme: Un amour de femme (2001) Season Unknown, Episode Unknown

Great Movie!

[9/10 · 20 May 2005]

I actually watched the film this morning. I could hardly wait for Netflix to send it. I was a bit skeptical because I've seen a lot of lesbian films that really didn't cut the mustard. This film was a beautifully made lesbian film that rivaled most heterosexual romantic films I've seen. The one reason I got the film was due to the fact that Rafaela Anderson was in it. I had seen her in Baise Moi and think that she's an awesome actress as well as attractive. I'm not a lesbian but I'm very open sexually and thought the sex scenes were done very nicely, and not overly done like most films. There was a subtle awakening of love between these two characters, which put you right in the picture. You could actually see the love unfolding right before your eyes which is beautiful to me. There was never a butch, femme type of scenario in this film either, which happens in most lesbian erotica films. The fact that this woman was married and had a son was even more alluring. This movie showed two attractive women, who fell in love and make a choice at the end that will leave audiences guessing or wanting more. You watch and decide. The best lesbian love story I have ever seen.

Noise (2004)

Great Film

[8/10 · 31 March 2005]

The film Noise was very enjoyable. I have a very low tolerance for noise so I found it fitting to rent a movie with this title. I'm also a fan of Ally Sheedy and when I saw her name on the credits I picked the movie up immediately. This movie really shows you how irritating noises from a neighbor can actually reduce you to "sheer craziness". I've been in the same situation many times, but the noise came from roommate who had no regard or respect for my privacy. I could identify with the character to a certain degree but the ending was not what I expected at all and will shock the first time viewer a great deal. Please go see this movie, invite your noisy neighbor if you have to. LOL
