Bring in Johnny, and he'll save the day. by cmrok93 Pros: Fun to watch because of the action and performances.
Cons: Too muddled and convoluted for its own good. El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) who continued to look for work in any Mexican town he ran into is back once again, but this time, he isn't looking for work, work finds him! Once a crazed and demented CIA agent (Johnny Depp) tracks him down, El Mariachi is ...

Bigger budget, looser story. by cmrok93 Pros: Fun to watch, if only for a few high-flying action sequences.
Cons: Doesn't intruige you as much as its predecessor did. Taking place after the first one with a new cast but relatively same story, a gun-toting mariachi (Antonio Banderas) travels to a Mexican town in search for the man who killed his lover and shot his right-hand, the same hand he used to be able to make ...

Don't wear red to prom. by cmrok93 Pros: Scary, intense, disturbing, and horrifying, even after all of these years.
Cons: Dated in bits and pieces throughout. Carrie White (Sissy Spacek) is your typical teenage outcast that has no friends, is a bit weird, a bit shy, and seems behind the curve in terms of her sexuality. However, what separates Carrie from all the other hot-shot bimbos in school, is that she has ...

All teachers are weird when we're their students. by cmrok93 Pros: Fun to watch at times, if only because of the cast.
Cons: Too predictable, which is disappointing. A geek (Elijah Wood) finds a small mollusk on a football field. He thinks it's a new discovery until the school's teachers start behaving very Children Of The Corn ish and become obsessed with the element of water. This is where many of the teenagers ...

Jason vs. a Carrie knockoff - Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood by brendan2 Pros: uh... the makeup
Cons: pretty much everything else Despite its title, there's nothing particularly new about Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood. The film gets off to a bad start with a cheesy voiceover narration accompanying flashbacks to the previous movies. (The flashback ...

OOOOOOOHHHHHH! Baathist Bugs are we! by thewasp Pros: Great special effects and irony
Cons: Too sickening to be really funny The title of this review comes from a song sung by the "Baathist Bugs" in a parody of "Starship Troopers" that I began writing, but never finished, after getting out of the US Navy. Since the bugs seemed to like deserts (or perhaps it was more ...

Farrah Fawcett is Naked in a Fountain. Gere does not Deliver! by yarnlady25 Pros: Gere is surrounded by beautiful women!
Cons: A lot of leading ladies that do not deliver in their acting roles. This movie interested me because of the all star cast. I thought with all these leading ladies surrounding Richard Gere, Dr T and the Women would be a great movie. I was wrong, great stars do not always deliver great movies. The movie directed by Robert ...

Ghost Hunters: Season 3 Part 2 by kairosdreaming Pros: They use interesting equipment.

Nights in Rodanthe - Oh no, not the 'CF' Word! by mizsallyforth Pros: Nice hair you guys.

Cons: lack of blood & guts, pacing, skilled zombies I've never really been into zombie films. After seeing "Zombedies" like "Zombieland" and "Shaun of the Dead", I was amused but still not hooked on the genre as a whole. All of that ended one fine October night after seeing the pilot episode of "The ...
