Once Upon a Time in Mexico (DVD, 2004)
Bring in Johnny, and he'll save the day.

Desperado (VHS, 2001)
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.

Carrie (DVD, Decades Collection)
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 ...

I LOVED watching the first season again!!! AHH...memories!
by tiffkopNew Member
Pros: drama, love, friendship, entertaining
Cons: Does show surgery, not real bodies, but might bother some people
Ok to begin, I have NEVER missed an episode of Grey’s Anatomy. It may have been a day late but I’ve seen it. When it first came out in 2006, I was in college and we all had Sunday nights off from work and had a “Grey’s ...

Friday the 13th - Part 7: The New Blood
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 ...

Starship Troopers (DVD, 2003, Superbit)
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 ...

Dr. T and the Women (DVD, 2007)
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 ...

This is the 2nd half of Season 3.  For whatever reason, the Ghost Hunter's seasons are split into two.  Probably so you look like you have an impressive collection of DVD's on your shelf.  Or at least we'll go with that.  But it's not ...
