Movie reviews

Posted to Movies category

I'm guessing on Shane's reviews, I'll let him make modification in the comments.

The Office: Season4

I had a hard time liking the office when it first came out. I became a fan once we rented Season 1 on DVD. We've been waiting a long time for Season 4 to come out and it hasn't disappointed.

The Pursuit of Happyness

A good movie. We normally like more comedy, but this was very well done, an interesting story and not too preachy (which I was a little worried about).

Dave Attell's Insomniac Tour Uncensored!

A good standup comedy DVD. It didn't have any tie ins to the Dave Attell's Insomniac TV show, so that was a little disappointing. I got yell at by Sukki for letting Mindy watch this, a lot of adult humor.

10,000 B.C.

I had been waiting to see this movie since it was in theaters. Shane didn't want to see it as he said it got bad reviews. I liked it, but it did seem like it would be better as a Doctor Who or SG1 episode. The story was good, the special effect and visuals were great. The characters were a little weak, it was hard to tell them apart and you never really bought into them.

The Muppet Show: Season 3

I'm not sure why I just don't buy these. You almost can't go wrong with the Muppets. (except for Muppets in Oz..yuck)

Reno 911!: Miami

Not a very good movie. But we enjoyed it for it's campiness. The Reno 911 folks are damn good.

F**k

Not exactly what I expected out of the documentary. Not sure what I expected. Was pretty much interviews of celebrities, like the I love the 70s series on VH1, asking them about the word fuck.

The Librarian: Quest for the Spear

It wasn't terrible, but not sure I'd ever watch it again. A cheap after school movie for young teenagers that kinda stole from the Indiana Jones and StarGate films.

Babel

Too artsy and preachy for our taste.

The Bourne Ultimatum

We're not big action fans, but this was pretty good, and better than the second one.

Charlotte's Web

Stayed true to the book, but aimed at kids. I was hoping the Movie would have taken some artistic rights and cooked the pig.

Howard Zinn: You Can't Be Neutral on a Moving Train

Way too preachy without actually having a point. At first they stayed on more of a biography style then they kinda switched back and forth warning us of annoying government crap.

Airplane!

One of the best movies of all time

Gilbert Gottfried: Dirty Jokes

A DVD of Gilbert's standup. The extra features were pretty good. Was kinda short.

The Bourne Supremacy

Not as good as the first and third movies, but ok.

Reno 911!: Reno's Most Wanted: Uncensored

Was ok, not really uncensored. Was random episodes from the first 3 seasons.

Terrorstorm: A History of Government Sponsored Terrorism

Pretty much a radio talk show from Texas and his theory about 911 being an inside job. He made some interesting points, but didn't go too deep on them. The title is a little misleading, the "History" part is a 5min or so slide show at the start of the movie. It would have been better if he went into more depth.

Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers

A documentary on how the Government is making it's buddies rich while screwing over the troops, taxpayers and Iraqis. Got a little preachy and was shallow on some of the claims.
