10.5: Apocalypse - 2006 by susidee34 Pros: lots of fun computer junk
Cons: who decided to make Beau Bridges president of the US? My logical mind tells me that movies like 10.5: Apocalypse are a bunch of fabricated baloney slices but my inside voice tells me, writers aren’t that damn smart - this information has to come from somewhere, even if it is distorted. This ...

The Tudors: Season One -- Yet another travesty about Henry VIII and his wives... by telynor Pros: Sam Neill as Wolsey, Jeremy Northam as Thomas More, Natalie Dormer as Anne Boleyn.
Cons: The list is too long to say it in fifteen words. Of late, the Tudor dynasty has become big business in the entertainment industry. Books, both fiction and nonfiction, and several films and miniseries have been released this decade, and one of the biggest productions has been Showtime's sprawling ...

Angelina Jolie and Denzel Washington Search for a Killer in Bone Collector by dragonfire88 Pros: Entertaining thriller with good cast.
Cons: Something tied to the mystery handled badly. I enjoy thriller movies and tend to give them a chance even though some of them end up being not so good. I first saw Bone Collector back in 1999 when it was still in the theater. I enjoyed the movie overall and decided to pick ...

Comedy So Smashingly Funny by debfan74 Pros: Never a dull moment, show leaves you wanting more
Cons: Not a single flaw, but also not intended for children When I first came across the British series Absolutely Fabulous, I first seen it on the cable station Comedy Central. I was a bit confused about the series until I finally got to see it on video tape and see it from the very first ...

Shrink - in which Kevin Spacey is grieving and stoned. by millinocket Pros: Spacey and Palmer

Some one should have dragged me to hell by november52002 Pros: I laughed a few times
Cons: This was not scary, was simple yet very predictable I was surely disappointed in this movie for many reasons. First of all the previews on television showed all of the best parts. The movie failed to add anything better then the preview had shown to me on television. I watched it on the big screen at our ...

The Not-so Great Escape With Steve...Railsback by truckturner Pros: Scenery, Ferrier, Mercurio
Cons: Everything Else and then some! Set in a tightly-controlled, but nondescript futuristic society (1995 apparently. Oops!) where so-called ‘deviants’ are sent to rehabilitation camps (or prisons as us normal folk would call ‘em) for much torture, harassment, and ...

"I Feel Like I'm in a Bad X-Files Episode" by msiduri Pros: Amusing moments, intended or not. Decent special effects.
Cons: Wretched dialogue, plot holes, failure to suspend disbelief Max Poindexter (yes, that's the character's name) and Holly Capers are busy needling each other as they monitor the feed from NASA's Galileo II they have illicitly tapped into. Suddenly, Holly sees a black splotch on her screen jumping light years ...

A Farcical German "Death of a Salesman" by Stephen_Murray Pros: cast, scenic German countryside
Cons: slow to get going, but then hits on all cylinders I think that "Reine Geschmacksache" means "clean taste" in German. The entertaining 2007 German comedy (that is not an oxymoron!) with that title was released in English as "Fashion Victims."Who are the victims? The buyers of both the dowdy, ...

Decrepit Crypt of Nightmares: Surburban Sasquatch (29/50) by cdm72 Pros: Have to get back to you on that.
Cons: The special effects looked like they were brought to us by the director's Commodore 64. I guess I had it coming. After the awesomeness of THE SHUNNED HOUSE and even the cheesiness of MATTHEW, I suppose it was time for another rotten $1.50 movie. Enter SUBURBAN SASQUATCH. In this cautionary tales of suburban development vs. the ...

If You Know The Name, You Know Too Much About "Schindler's List," Spielberg's Perfect Film! by wlswarts Pros: Amazing acting, Great direction, Good story, Great character development, DVD bonus features
Cons: None (Except the title) There are certain things we seem to take for granted with modern cinema. Movies about the Holocaust are pretty much money in the bank (unless, I suppose, you're showing your movie in Iran) and the generally-assumed best movie about the Holocaust is ...

Jack Webb's The D.I. (1957) On DVD - It Has Something To Teach Today's Generation by morilla Pros: Finally on DVD; Realistic; Suitable for a large audience; Humorous moments
Cons: No DVD menu; Somewhat expensive People come and go in life, but one individual you never forget is your Drill Instructor (D.I.). Jack Webb's portrayal of Technical Sergeant Moore has been criticized as "campy," "inauthentic," and "stiff;" yet, it is one of the most realistic ...

As essential to enjoy in Hi-Def as Lawrence of Arabia by c-post Pros: Gorgeous in high def, a premium slice of American counterculture
Cons: Definitely a way left of center movie if that bothers you Vanishing Point. The very name calls for a high definition, wide-screen viewing experience. I haven't seen this movie in almost 40 years. I held my breath THAT LONG for the Blu-Ray release of Vanishing Point. (And also because I couldn't find the ...

A Revolting NORP Regurgitation by rbuchanan Pros: It's suitably riffable.
Cons: It exists. Here, ultrahack Brett Ratner and the profoundly untalented screenwriting duo of David Diamond and David Weissman perform an inexplicable and boring magic trick by stretching a well-worn scenario that could barely suffice as a half-hour television show ...

Seven Pounds - another Will Smith winner! by ladyconsumer Pros: A beautiful story, with a wonderful message and terrific performances.

A Cock and Bull story of complete abusrditity by musicc Pros: I honestly have no idea...
