Bagger doesn’t so much tell him how to play golf, as... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1058842 Sat, 4 Nov 2000 05:27:12 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-7DFD-294CC629-3A03C828-prod3?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-23BB-105E0667-3A030F7F-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - They titter in delight at their boss, whom they have never seen. Three beautiful women who can beat the snot out of anybody and who can solve any problem (in true Mission: Impossible type fashion), they are Dylan, Alex and Natalie; Charlie’s... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1058949 Fri, 3 Nov 2000 16:19:37 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-23BB-105E0667-3A030F7F-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-6286-481059D-39F88F8A-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - Somewhere in this world, there is a society where local television weathermen are goofy and outrageous. I have yet to come across these creatures, yet according to Hollywood, they certainly do exist. There are so many memorable TV weathermen in the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1060281 Thu, 26 Oct 2000 17:12:26 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-6286-481059D-39F88F8A-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-1500-17A2D04-39F0CFFC-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - The last words that they ever say to each other seem insignificant. A one-line discussion about superficiality and then disaster strikes for the Prescotts. And now their two children, Terry and Samantha, are orphaned. About thirty years later,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1061485 Fri, 20 Oct 2000 20:07:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-1500-17A2D04-39F0CFFC-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-2F1A-C783850-39E6D3B7-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - I like The Contender for the movie that it is, and I love it for the movie that it is trying to be. Unfortunately, the fact that it doesn’t reach its desired apex, I cannot proclaim greatness upon this film, although it is very good. It deals... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1062878 Fri, 13 Oct 2000 06:20:51 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-2F1A-C783850-39E6D3B7-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-76E8-BBD1451-39E4F49E-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - Darren Aronofsky doesn’t make movies, he makes cinematic versions of feeling, which, depending on your taste, can be either good or bad. With Pi, he enveloped us in paranoia in one of the most bizarre, yet intriguing movies of 1998. Now with... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1063116 Wed, 11 Oct 2000 20:17:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-76E8-BBD1451-39E4F49E-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-66FC-A43AB50-39E12E69-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - This movie has divided people right down the center, a clean cut between people who think that this is one of the best films of the year and those who think that it is one of the worst. Similar to those camps of people, I am split about this movie, half... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1063771 Sun, 8 Oct 2000 23:34:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-66FC-A43AB50-39E12E69-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-72A0-76B3756-39B8AE55-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - Christopher McQuarrie stated in a recent article that he wrote The Way of the Gun in such a way so that nobody would ever ask him to write another crime movie again. And it’s not hard to see his reasoning. Why with The Usual Suspects... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1069663 Fri, 8 Sep 2000 06:17:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-72A0-76B3756-39B8AE55-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-3289-7181ABD-39B7D992-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - With an adorable twinkle in her eye, Betty manages to foul up lives left and right, ruining them despite her sweet nature and her lovely smile. Sure, she may accidentally save a life or two, but she seems to do a lot more harm than good.

Although I wasn’t harassed at every opportunity, like any good old fashioned social outcast, I was indoctrinated with the code of hate the popular.

Unlike What Lies Beneath, which drew its horror from constantly startling the audience, The Cell digs into your mind, leaving horrific images and terrible... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1074691 Mon, 14 Aug 2000 18:06:06 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-4BF0-2ABF1237-39985EBB-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-7C45-2A501E0F-399742B1-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - Megalomaniacs are villains I cannot enjoy watching in a movie that takes itself seriously.

Whereas Permanent Midnight and Trainspotting explore drug problems... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1076956 Sun, 6 Aug 2000 03:27:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-37F-EADF08C-398D04AA-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-6411-4D409E7-39825932-prod6?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - For some reason, Hollywood thinks that if you play a sharp chord really suddenly and painfully loud that it is scary. Sure, it startles us a few times, but the difference between being startled and be scared is like night and day. Remember The Blair... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1078684 Sat, 29 Jul 2000 01:14:10 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-6411-4D409E7-39825932-prod6?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-4BE1-977FC05-3961B673-prod4?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - The Perfect Storm galumphs along clumsily to a spectacular centerpiece of visual effects and heart-stopping action. It tries desperately to make us to care about the characters who set out into the sea only to encounter the biggest storm of the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1085648 Tue, 4 Jul 2000 07:05:19 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-4BE1-977FC05-3961B673-prod4?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-3042-8EF785F-39604F9B-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle is a terrifically whimsical movie about nostalgia. True, many of the jokes will go right over the heads of the children considering they are mostly about how the Rocky and Bullwinkle show was cancelled in... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1085978 Mon, 3 Jul 2000 05:58:44 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-3042-8EF785F-39604F9B-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-5CB1-11C44577-39586C60-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - The Idiots is the second film from the Dogme 95 company, a group of 4 Danish directors who took a “vow of chastity” towards filmmaking.

I don’t think many people are in danger of losing complete control over themselves because of this movie, but the humor is there, deep inside rooted between the finely tuned comic... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1088688 Fri, 23 Jun 2000 23:22:17 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-12CC-42AAB98-39541B0A-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-56B6-F346B9E-3951DD6E-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Scorsesian - Just about every night in the cooler, you can hear the rhythmic sound of the ball bouncing off of the wall. The one throwing the ball tries to keep sane while the time slowly passes around the camp that encases everyone.

The humor of this testosterone charged lack-of-laugh-fest is undermining and inane. Of course it is.
