The Pearl of Africa

Wed, 1 Feb 2006 02:14:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I can only say great things about Uganda. The country is lush, green and beautiful. The people are among the friendliest on earth. You will not feel like you are in one of the poorest countries, and you will not be rushed by mobs of kids saying "give...

Coffee or Tea?

Wed, 1 Feb 2006 01:44:56 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I have traveled much of the world, particularly in Africa and other so-called, developing nations. I have never had as horrible an experience as I did in Cairo. Cairo is all about the hustle. The locals, seemingly very friendly, will lure you in...

Beautiful Art-Suspense-Horror

Sun, 20 Aug 2000 04:02:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - The movie trailers enticed me, got me interested... the movie blew me away! Perhaps the movie itself was so overwhelming that i just didn't notice, but the acting seemed to actually be pretty good, too. Including Jennifer Lopez! I was simply...

An exceptional must see film

Tue, 4 Jul 2000 13:16:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I'd had mixed feelings about seeing this film, not sure what it was about, but resistant to seeing another death row film, particularly one that plays into negative racial stereotypes. But, I needed something to do one evening, so I decided to rent it...

the FIRST Action Hero

Tue, 4 Jul 2000 12:45:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - Another great epic for the year 2000! The Patriot is simply fantastic! It is so emotionally charged, so graphically real in detail, and so educational, it is a truly great film for these reasons alone. To see how the battles were fought for the...

you're damn right!

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 03:09:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I think John Woo (MI:2) should see this movie. This was fun! A pleasant trip back in time to the original, but updated and brought to the modern times, with Samuel L Jackson playing the nephew of the original SHAFT. (Richard Roundtree is also in the...

Mission TOO Impossible

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 02:56:20 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - Finally i get to write a negative opinion! Not since End of Days have I seen a movie as bad as this one. It sucked and I would not recommend it to anyone! The preview for SHAFT before the movie got more applause than MI2 got as a full length movie...

Spectacular!

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 02:43:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - This movie was fantastic! Spectacular! I expected to be thrilled and i got just that. Great story, great acting, great directing, i laughed i cried... wait, i didn't laugh, but i think i might have cried. Lots of action without overplaying the gore...

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 02:32:58 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - this movie was cute, predictable, but cute. i have never been a big martin lawrence fan, not sure why i went to see this actually...

the make-up was good but i could have done without seeing that woman's backside.

Hmm... when i...

Direct hit

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 02:23:32 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I don't like war movies, don't like Matthew Mc-how-ever-you-spell-it... but I actually really enjoyed this movie. It was gripping, suspensful, and was not overly predictible. I went into this movie expecting not only very little, but in fact wanting...

And such potential, too

This movie was good, it has great acting, a few interesting surprises, is at times thought provoking, and has all the makings of a classic. In...

Pitch it, but hold onto Vin

Sat, 15 Apr 2000 23:18:35 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - This movie was.. OK. Vin Diesel was great, the concept was really intersting, the rest of the acting was not remarkable... the movie could have been so much better and so much scarier.

As far as scary movies go, i have seen scarier. the...

hurricane Denzel!!

Sat, 15 Apr 2000 23:05:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - Though i wanted to see this movie from the start, being a big fan of Denzel Washington, it seems i was just a week behind the crowd and all my friends saw it before me. So i went to the cheap theatre to see it on my own and wow, did i ever get my...

Hi, my name is John...

Sat, 15 Apr 2000 22:07:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - This movie was very interesting to me. I am a Sandra Bullock fan, love her! And she does a truly fantastic job with this. I am also almost 5 years sober, have been in her position before (tho perhaps not quite so extreme) and i really felt they...

a return to Love!

Sat, 15 Apr 2000 21:49:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - Can a movie be more feel good and loving than this? Being totally in love myself, this movie was really nice to me. this is a great date movie, especially for those who see themselves in long term committed relationships.

the premise of...

Startlingly great!

Sat, 15 Apr 2000 21:36:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - First of all, this is a horror film, so anything i say is meant in that context. I Loved this movie! Wong did an incredibly masterful job of directing this that i was constantly being surprised, shocked and awed. I would go back to see this at the...

totally Julia

Sat, 15 Apr 2000 21:12:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - This was a great movie for Julia Roberts. And i Loved it! Julia played her old self, what's new. But she does it magnificently in the movie which is wonderful, Julia notwithstanding!

I think this movie might best be described as...

A fantastic film!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I was invited to see this with a friend, not sure i would have seen it otherwise... but i am so glad that i did! This is a Great movie! It so completely surpassed all my expectations, which were actually fairly high.

Winona Ryder (who is...

Totally Whack, Loved it!

Fri, 14 Jan 2000 22:01:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - This movie is very strange, but totally worth seeing! The general effect of the movie is similar to that of "Usual Suspects" in that it really doesn't make much sense until the very end. That is when the punchline hits, and in the most...

End of Days? Let us hope!!!

Wed, 15 Dec 1999 20:20:26 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I had low expectations for this movie, and was not disappointed. It was just as bad as i expected it to be. The storyline was weak, the acting, sub-par and even the special effects were less than extraordinary.

For an action thriller type...

Hoffman is Flawless!!!

Fri, 10 Dec 1999 22:03:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - Though Robert DeNiro is the big name in this movie, this film belongs to Hoffman. Without him there is nothing. The story is not the strongest, your standard drug dealer thug type stuff... and in fact i thought it was a little over done. Even the drag...

this is not the "gay" community

Fri, 10 Dec 1999 21:53:46 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I have just one very significant problem with the review of Aki Yoshi... it equates a group of Drag Queens with the "gay community" and calls it an "in depth look"! Huh?

This was a fantastic movie, no doubt! (please see...

Amid Rave Reviews... not bad

Sat, 27 Nov 1999 11:49:39 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - This album is one more in a long line of albums from Prince/The Artist that is worth buying and filled with an eclectic and unexpected mix of music and song.

Mind you, i am a huge Prince fan and would have bought this CD if it were twice the...

I really liked it!

Sat, 27 Nov 1999 11:02:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - I have seen a number of fair to poor reviews of this movie... which i feel is unfortunate. I have been waiting all summer to see this movie, and i was not disappointed. Mind you, this is a genre of films i have grown to enjoy. One of my favorite films...

cute, fun, wait for the video

Fri, 22 Oct 1999 14:06:14 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Apuuli - This is not a movie I had expected to run out and see, or particularly like. But it was not too bad.

Totally Hollywood, the story offers up a few surprises, but nothing that makes you say, "wow, i did not see that coming." It is a...
