Inside Man


It is a fantastic movie.Well scrpited and well acted . As usual,
the Oscar winners delivered -Jodie F., Danzel, & C.Plummer.
Clive Owen was extraordinary . I enjoyed his movies and this
definitely did not dissapoint. It's a bank robbery thing but the
film is interesting by the different and numerous endings for
some characters. Entertaining all throughtout. Must see film.

Freedomland



This movie is not good. It was truly dissapointing considering
the stars in it . Samuel Jackson was excellent but if the story
is not good , there is only so much one can do. Julianne Moore
was over the top in her acting was disastrous. Edie Falco' role
was more subtle but her appearance was totally different from
Mrs. Soprano in the HBO series. Must be her black hair here.

Prime


Meryl Streep was great in this movie. The others were
not. Ican't understand if this movie is a comedy or love
story . Maybe both . It failed miserably then . I kind of
compare this with ' About Last Night ' . This Demi Moore
and Rob Lowe starrer was great and funny.This was not. .

Just Friends



A terrible movie . I watched it and halfway
I replaced it. This is a straight to cable type.
A slapstick comedy type with full of not so
smart dialogues. May appeal to some peeps.

Glory Road


What a wonderful movie . Every basketball
afficianado will enjoy this. Every minute is
exciting and engaging . The last 2 games
were very good and 'relatable' what with
Boston Celtics's Jojo White and the Laker's
Pat Riley . I though Riley was left handed ?
I hope to watch this again after some time.

Munich


I remember watching an earlier film about
the Israeli response to the Munich massacre.
It was good but this one by Spielberg is a lot
better. This movie was well done with good
pacing .Exciting .Never boring up to the end !

The Smartest Guys In The Room


I really enjoyed this picture. It's better than
the Enron TV movie I watched sometime ago.
The facts are straight from Skilling and Lay
past testimonies. Most esp ecially the account
by the Fortune magazine lady. Fascinating !

The Family Stone


It is an interesting movie. Very humorous at times.
Sarah Jessica Parker is funny and so is that Canuck
Chick. Different plot makes it engaging until the end.

North Country





The movie is lame but got enough spunk to
keep us awake during the showing. If Charlize
thought she is gonna win an Oscar again , she's
wrong and the Academy was right. Her acting
was ordinary so was the story. Forgettable film.

Hardwood



This is a good documentary about the lives of 2 sons of
a former member of the Harlem Globetrotters . The 2
are sons from different mothers. One is a product of
interracial marriage. He lived an interesting life worth
viewing although the other son's life is more emotional.
