I just got back from a screening a couple of hours ago, and I was very
happy with the movie when I left it. It's very intense, and the closest
I've come to crying in a movie in quite some time. That is a credit to
Adam Sandler, who delivers a magnificent performance on many levels,
and who probably deserves an Oscar nom for it, were it not coming out
so early in the yea...

If you go into watching this movie looking for the pothead humor of
Half Baked or even That 70s Show, you will not find what you are
looking for. By that I mean there is no "Man I am so high" giggle
giggle jokes. Although there is a fair share of toilet humor,
literally. The acting, in my opinion was good. There is nothing I hate
more than an actor playing up to all the stereot...

This movie is what people want out of Paul Hogan. Personally, I loved
"Almost an Angel" and "Lightning Jack." But for those of you who don't
quite get Paul Hogan's humor, why would you even bother watching the
third installment of the Crocodile Dundee saga? The character of
Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee is someone to be adored by any child of
the 80's. And I, for one, am so tha...

Proximity is the low-budget sister of The Fugitive, involving a man on the
run from the law to see that justice is served, an endless marathon
through
back streets to avoid being seen, bad guys who always aim the gun at the
good guy's feet - these are just a few of the sorry clich...

Actually, things explode a lot! Much of the film's budget must have
gone on explosives, cars explode, buildings explode, everything
explodes at some point....The special effects are pretty well staged for a low-budget,straight to
DVD/video but the plot gets a bit lost in all the smoke. And I couldn't
help feeling there was a really good story trying hard to get out along
the wa...

I'm slightly puzzled as to some of the harsher comments featuring
BOILING POINT . I will confess that it's not a thriller classic but I
will defend it against the accusation that it's a terrible movie Red (
Dennis Hopper ) is released from prison and owes some mafia types money
and so is given a seven day ultimatum . Jimmy ( Wesley Snipes - And no
early 90s urban thriller is co...

This is a "sleeper," an intense and involving thriller that grabs you
from the start....but a film not people know about. Hey, only 10 people
have even reviewed it here and the film is 13 years old. To be fair, I did think the finish was unrealistic which the typical
killer-talks- instead-of shoots mentality, a familiar flaw in
flimmaking. Too bad, because the rest of the movie is ...

This was a nice surprise. I figured it would be stupid and not all that
funny. Wrong. It WAS funny. Yes, it's a harmless "no-brainer" type of
movie but it was fun and had likable lead characters, people you could
easily root for to make good. In this, it was a pair of security
guards: "Frank Dooley" (John Candy) and "Norman Kane" (Eugene Levy). Every comedy has its stupid momen...

Beverly Hills Cop was a big hit in the 1980's. The film was loved by
many action fans, as well as comedy fans and movie buffs at the time.
It is still being admired by many people as one of the funniest cop
movies ever made.The thing I love about this movie is that Eddie Murphy was perfectly
cast as the Axel Foley character. Originally, Sylvester Stallone was
considered for the...

This is the one of the movies that kicked off the buddy cop formula.
Technically, Nick Nolte's the only cop, but other films have tried to
imitate the style by having a tough, cranky, by-the-book cop (Nolte's
character) paired off with a loose, easygoing, unorthodox cop (like Murphy's
character). Some of these "imitators" have failed miserably and even those
that succeeded do...

"Airplane!" is, was and always shall be the master of spoof movies. It
is single-handedly responsible for literally inventing a sub-genre of
comedy. It is the ultimate Silly Movie. A satire of the disaster movies
of the 1970s, particularly the "Airport" series, nothing makes sense
and it doesn't need to. There's no real plot. Just laughs - and plenty
of 'em.It was helmed by the...

piece of cinematic history. The two comedians play Skip Donahue and
Harry Monroe, a pair of New Yorkers whose lives are going nowhere.
After witnessing a very unpleasant scene in a bar, they decide to move
