Assassins - R
|
|
This is a classic action flick with Stallone and Banderas at their best as action stars. The story is about two of the best assassins hired to take down a women and get back a computer disk. This movie gives you what you expect. A solid story with solid acting. Plus you get all the action, fights and explosions you would want from a action movie. Stallone and Banderas are great as the adversaries in this. Just a fun action movie. Worth a watch.

The Man Who Knew Too Much - PG
|
|
This is another classic movie directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Basically about a couple who have their son kidnapped when the stumble upon a assassination plot. The movie stars James Stewart and Doris Day. They both give top notch performances. The movie has a great story. Very entertaining. Plus the entire film has that look and feel to a Hitchcock type movie. The movie is not as good as other Hitchcock movies like Vertigo, North by Northwest or Rear Window. But it still is a classic. Well worth a watch.

The Watcher in the Woods - PG
|
|
This is a movie that had promise but failed in the end. I was shocked to find out this was a Disney movie. I guess this was their attempt to make a scary movie but still have a general rated audience watch it. The movie started out as creepy but once the story evolved it became less and less creepy. The movie has a very low budget look. Plus the acting was very bad in this. This may creep out some kids but now it comes across as a very cheesy movie. Not worth a watch. Skip it.

State and Main - R
|

This is a quirky but fun movie. Basically about a film crew trying to make a movie in a small town in Vermont. They of course have problems with locations, the actors and the local towns people. This movie has a great cast with William H. Macy, Alec Baldwin, Julia Stiles, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Sara Jessica Parker and so forth. The movie has many funny moments. And all the actors give solid performances. The story is worth a watch just for the cast brought together for this. Worth a watch.

The Frighteners - R
|
|
This is a decent horror comedy. Stars Michael J. Fox as a psychic swindler who can actually talk to the dead. He gets involved in a case of mysterious deaths. The film is directed by Peter Jackson. He gets the best from his cast and the script. Michael J. Fox is great as the lead and the movie has a good supporting cast. The F/X is very good in this. I wouldn't call this a scary film but more of a supernatural comedy. The story is decent and entertaining overall. Check it out if your a Peter Jackson or Michael J. Fox fan.

Escape from L.A. - R
|
|
This is the sequel to the John Carpenter film Escape from New York. Kurt Russell is also back as Snake Plissken. Much like the original film the future looks very bleak. This time Snake Plissken is sent to the prison Island of Los Angeles. He must go in and save the President's daughter to become a free man. Much like the original movie he has to start interacting with the local prisoners to get what he wants. Kurt Russell is still great as Snake Plissken. The movie is kind of cheesy but in a fun way. The story is okay and it does have some solid action. If you liked the original movie or enjoy future desolate world type of film then this is worth checking out.

The Hand That Rocks the Cradle - R

This is a really good thriller. Basically about this nanny that a family hires that has her own agenda to get revenge on them. Rebecca De Mornay is excellent in this. Most likely her best role she starred in. The movie has a great supporting cast. With a great story that keeps you on the edge. You wonder what else this woman will do. Well worth a watch.

Love Stinks - R

This is a funny movie. Basically about this man who meets this beautiful woman at a wedding. They seem to hit it off. Next thing they know they are married. And that is when his new wife seems to change personalities for the worse. The movie pokes fun of marriage, relationships and other stereotypes of women and men. French Stewart and Bridgette Wilson are both very funny in this. I got some good laughs from the film. Worth a watch.

This is a classic 80's buddy cop movie. Sure they only made the one but it could have been a series such as Lethal Weapon. Kurt Russell and Sylvester Stallone play two detectives who hate each other but are forced to work together to clear their name. They were great together. Very funny. Plus the movie is full of action. Has a solid story. And a great bad guy. Overall this was a fun film. Worth a watch.

Exit Wounds - R

This is a decent action movie. It stars Steven Seagal and rapper DMX. Nothing great about the performances. Seagal is okay. They could have cast someone better then DMX. But the movie had a good supporting cast. The story is simple. A cop trying to bring down a group of dirty cops. You get your fair share of action and fight sequences. Nothing major but just enough to entertain. One of Seagal's better movies out there. Worth a one time watch if you like action movies.

This is a decent horror thriller. Basically about a group of young people who are traveling on the highway through the States. They of course by chance run into a trucker who is a serial killer and he wants them all dead as his next victims. Sort of like the old Spielberg movie Duel but notched up a level. The movie has a good young cast and the bad guy was creepy. The movie had you wondering what this guy was going to do next. A solid horror thriller. Worth a watch.

Alien Resurrection - R

This is the fourth Alien movie they made. This is a decent addition to the Alien series. The story is set years later after Ripley's death. Ripley is brought back from her DNA. But so is the Alien species. This of course causes lots of trouble for Ripley and the people on the spaceship. The story is decent and the movie is full of your typical gore and death like other Alien movies. The F/X is very good for this film. The movie has a solid cast. Overall I liked it. If you enjoyed the other Alien movies then check this one out.
