Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003)
Great entertaining movie
This movie is really cool and well done. The action is awesome to watch and the acting is great too. The gore and blood was a little to much but it was so stupid you just had to laugh at it. This is probably one of Tarantino's more entertaining films
X2 (2003)
excellent movie
This is one of the better movies to come out this summer. It was a very entertaining film, showing how one person's act can categorise people into being all the same. Great action in the picture and has also great special affects. Very good story too
Scarface (1983)
Great entertaining movie
This movie is very entertaining and is never ever boring even running at nearly 3 hours. Al Pacino, Michelle Phieffer and the rest of the cast are great in the film and are very believable. The violence was a little extreme in the film but then it showed how vicious the drug trade was at the time of the film. The ending is amazing and is probalby one of the coolest scenes ever. Great movie and you will probably really enjoy it.

The Italian Job (2003)
Great FLick
This movie was soooooo good. I loved every minute of it. There wasn't a single boring scene in the whole movie and the whole thing was loads of fun. The action scenes were incredible and i loved how they didn't depend on cgi to make all the action scenes look cool. Great job by everyone on the film. THis is in my opinion the best movie of the summer so far.
Jackass: The Movie (2002)
very funny
This movie is so funny. The stuff they do is so stupid that you just have to laugh. After you see this movie youwill feel dumber cause of seeing how stupid some people can be. Some of the stuff they did wasn't that funny and was actually pretty gross. Overall very good
Basic (2003)
pretty entertaining
I thought this movie was extremely entertaining. It tells the story of a sadistic marine seargent who went missing with the rest of his crew after an exercise only to find two of them had survived it. John Travolta is brought in to interrogate the men brought back to find out what happened and from their the movie is one big wild goose chase as people lie and try to cover up what they did. The movie has some really good twists and makes you think who's story is the most credible in the movie. The movie's ending is quite a shocker and you'll be amazed with how it ends. It was kind of an abrupt ending and seemed like the last issue in the movie was unresolved. OVerall a good performance by Travolta who plays a smart ass interrogator and Jackson is always good playing a real hardass.
Spy Game (2001)
Great Movie
This movie is just plain awesome. It has a great premise too it and the flashback scenes are awesome. I loved how they show how a CIA agent gets trained and how you use people to get what you want. The cast is top notched and very believable in their roles. I however thought the whole flashback scenes with wht was going did not make much sense to me and spent way to long on it when they were discussing what to do about Brad Pitt. Overall good action
Cradle 2 the Grave (2003)
pretty good movie
I thought this movie was overall very entertaining and what I was expecting. The action scenes are ridiculous but fun to watch and everyone is perfect in their roles. It has some good comedy relief from Tom Arnold and another guy which lightened up the movie alot. Overall a fun time
Red Dragon (2002)
awesome movie
This movie is soo good. Very scaring, well acted and keeps you entertained. Hopkins is back better then ever. He played the role of Hannibal nicely as always. Ralph Fines was awesome too in it and was very scary with his role but should have been in it more. The rest of the cast well very good too. The ending was kind of funny ( if you've seen silence of the lambs) you'll understand why).
The Four Feathers (2002)
pretty good but gets boring
This movie can be very exciting and very boring at the same time. The acting was good by all the actors in the movie but the cheesiness of some scenes ruined it. The action was good in the Sudan with all the fighting too. I liked how the emphasized on friendship in this movie by showing that even though Heath Ledger was outcasted by his friends, he still felt it was his duty to protect them and help them. I sure hope this movie doesn't win any academy awards cause it don't deserve it.
Swimfan (2002)
pretty good
This movie had some genuine scares but had some really dumb parts. I won't give any away of course cause then they'll kick me off this sight. Erika Christensian played a good psycho killer in this movie and was believable in her part. She wasn't quite as good as glen close was in fatal attraction but she still was good .The ending i was very dissapointed about and didn't make much sense because you'd think the good guys would have a conscience as they watch the psycho girl die. GOod job overall though
Road House (1989)
entertaining
This movie rocks. It's so much fun to watch. Even though it's so stupid and doesn't make much sense it doesnt' matter cause it's still entertaining. The action is pretty cool in the movie and is set up really well. I would have liked more information into Patrick Swayze's character in the movie but this movie is so one-dimensional that it wouldn't even matter. It would just provide the audience more information about each characther which won't even matter. Anyway I still loved this movie and thought it was a classic. Go see It
The Last Boy Scout (1991)
Very good
This movie is so good. Has some great actions scenes and hilarious lines. Damon Wayans and Bruce Willis work so well together and are very entertaining. Halle Berry is also good in it and does her best in a mediocre part. I don't think she was that good of an actress at the time this movie was made. Even though this movie is very entertaining it is degrading to women. ALl the women in the movie are sluts and are portrayed very negatively. ONly Willis' wife in the movie makes women looks good in this movie. Hope more movies are like this one
Changing Lanes (2002)
pretty exciting
This movie was extremely tense. The way that Affleck and Jackson react to the situation there in is so well done and makes you care about the characters. In my opinion they made it seem like Affleck was the good guy in this movie because of how bad he feels about putting this guy in the situation while Jackson does not and does some pretty mean things to Affleck in the movie. Had some good elements in it and some twists which I thought put more tension into the movie cause you never know if the character will do the right thing or not. i would have liked more action in it and better actions by the characters to ruin the other persons life. Some of the things the people do to one another seem pretty extreme and unrealistic which ruin the how realistic this movie could have been. Overall a very good job by both actors
Along Came a Spider (2001)
very good
This movie starts off like any other kidnap thriller would be and then just has a twist which will blow your socks off. It was hard though to comprehend what just happened because it makes you think about how is this possible and how they figured it out so well. Monica Potter in this movie does not do much init and is basically just assists Morgan Freeman in the movie. It would have been better if she was more into the plot then she was. Special effecs in this movie waere not needed esepecially at the beginning. That was a big waste of money and dould have been used for something else like better actors to assist Morgan Freeman. Overall good job
The One (2001)
good action
This movie had some very exciting action scenes and some great special effects. Unfortunately thats' the only thing good about this movie. The story of the movie and the idea of parallel universes and was not well presented. Even though the story was very simple, it could have been expanded more which would have made it more interesting. Jet Li can only fight not act and unless he gets some acting lessons he will only be known for fighting and not his acting. The other actors in this movie were not very good either and not very well known anyway so thats' okay. Overall I enjoyed this movie even though it's retarded
A Beautiful Mind (2001)
pretty good
This movie was very entertaining and had great acting. The movie deserved the best director and best supporting actress but did not deserve the best picture. With all the inaccuracies in this movie that i've been hearing about, it does not honor John Nash in this movie. Even though this is just a movie, it's in my opinion that a movie shoujld not be awarded for changing someone's life and making it entertaining. The Lord of the Rings should have gotten the best picture or even Black Hawk Down, which was unfortunately not nominated. Russel Crowe was very good in this movie and really brough John Nash to life.
Men with Brooms (2002)
Hilarious
This movie is so funny. The way that curling is portrayed in this movie gives it a good name and is also hilarious with how small town folks react to a game which to Americans seems very boring. The acting was great, the story was great and the overall feel of the movie was good. Even though there are some slow parts in the movie, it makes up for it with hilarious lines and exciting sports action. This has to be one of the greatest Canadian movies of all time
Saving Silverman (2001)
Some funny moments but really stupid
This move starts off really funny but then just gets stupid. The slapstick comedy in this is done soo poorly that it just wasn't needed. Jason Biggs was funny in his role and so were Jack black and Steve Zahn who had some funny scenes together. The girl in the movie who likes Silverman,Judith, is pretty funny too and is great at messing with the people who kidnap her. Overall funny movie but the slapstick and stupid scenes should have been better and funnier for that matter.
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001)
pretty good
This movie is visually amazing but does not have a lot to work with. It has some good moments in it and a interesting plot but it doesn't go too far. Also the word movements sometimes do not go with the characters and some of the actors are so misplaced. Steve Buscemi does not fit the profile of his character and kind of ruins the movie. Overall good job.
Pearl Harbor (2001)
Entertaining and very exciting
This movie was brought up as a Summer movie. That is what I think hurt this movie. If this movie was made to get an R rating I think it would have been much better, but it was made for the wrong audience which hurt its' significance. If a more historical aspect was put into it, it might have been a better film. That said, it was still very entertaining. The love triangle subplot was a good plot to set up the attack on pearl harbor, but the historical information should have had a bigger role for the set up for the attack. The acting is really great in the film and has very entertaining characters which make us care about them. When the action starts it's incredible. ALl the explosions, all the pump up lines, make any guy excited when watching this film. The recreation of the attack is perfectly set up but the whole pump up lines that the characters say when there about to fight back ruin the dramatic affect of the film because it makes it too much fun to watch. In my opinion Michael Bay should not have directed this picture. A more experienced director like Ridley Scott or James Cameron should have made this because they would have done more justice to the attack and it might have garnered some big time awards. Overall it was a good job by Michael Bay and Jerry Bruckheimer, who tired their best in making a big time epic but failed unfortunately.
American Pie 2 (2001)
really funny
This movie is hilarious. All the characters are back which makes it even better because all play a significant part in the first movie. This movie tops off the first one with gross out gags and funny lines. It seems though that the writer tried to copy each gross out scene from the first one and make it better for the second one. That's the only thing I had against this movie because their are scenes which if you've seen the first one are a resemblance to the first one but done much better. Stifler is the best character in the whole movie and has some of the funniest lines. Go see it because you will laugh so hard
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
awesome movie
This movie is soooooo cool. It has a great story and keeps you intrigued through out the whole movie. The movie takes time to get exciting but I thought that was going to happen since this is the first part of the trilogy. The action is incredible and is audience pleasing, so be prepared to get excited.
Jurassic Park III (2001)
Fun mindless flick
This movie does not have much of a plot. It's just an excuse to get people back on an island full of dinosaurs and have them being terrorized by them. THis isn't as good as the first two movies but it's still alot of fun to watch. The dinosaurs seem a bit cheesy this time around and sometimes they look awesome. I dont know how they got a decorated actor like William H. Macy to be in this dumb flick but he's very good in it. The action is cool in this movie and alot of it is exciting. The movie is based on a dinosaur theory which makes it better because at least the writers tried to put some educational stuff in the film. Overall good job but Spielberg should only be allowed to direct Jurrasic Park movies.
