Brothers Packs Comedic Punch

Fri, 13 Apr 2001 20:22:30 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - When was the last time you really laughed? Has it been awhile? Do you need to escape the rat race of the real world into a temporary fit of hilarity? If this is you, and I think it probably is, this coming weekend you should take yourself to the movie...

Another Carrey Hit

Fri, 23 Feb 2001 20:42:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - Jim Carrey: Is there anyone doing comedy on the big screen better these days? Coming off hits like the tremendously funny "Liar, Liar" and the unexpected success of the tongue-in-cheek "Truman Show," along with the hit "Man in the Moon," one would think...

Chicken Run: Seen it Before

Wed, 21 Feb 2001 19:25:19 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - I rented Chicken Run on DVD from Blockbuster because I wanted something light that wouldn't make me think a whole lot; that was exactly what I got. The plot was fairly predictable and most of the quirks of the movie were given away in the theatrical...

Best Live Album Yet

Tue, 20 Feb 2001 17:54:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - I hadn't really listened to Live before, but I heard the song "The Dolphin's Cry" on the radio and I began to really like it. I found the album at Costco for $12 so I decided to take a chance. What I found was probably one of my favorite rock albums...

May As Well Be Bank of Constaninople

Tue, 19 Sep 2000 16:18:51 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - Before I start, I will grant the reader the fact I have not had much experience with a variety of banks. Bank of America continues to stick it to me, and I keep taking, for only one reason:

It is free for me.

I have the ATM-only...

Not a Reason to Write Home

Fri, 15 Sep 2000 18:01:28 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - Honestly, I was very disappointed in Sapporo. There was much hype surrounding the beer, I had heard from many people it was very good. I bought it one night hanging out with some friends, thinking I was getting a good beer, especially since it cost...

Best of the Northwest

Fri, 15 Sep 2000 17:54:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - Portland Brewing's MacTarnahan's Amber Ale has a very full bodied taste, with the slightest edge to the hops. This is my favorite microbrew out of all the northwest brews, it has accompanied many a great night between my friends and I. It is a great...

Chef Aid Makes More Money

Thu, 14 Sep 2000 18:49:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - Honestly, I bought this soundtrack on a whim. I was at the local music store, wanting something new, I found this on the new release wall, looked over the artists, and thought to myself "What the heck..."

So I bought it, and I am...

UO - International Studies Program

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - I graduated from the University of Oregon International Studies Program in the spring of 1999 and I have to admit, I had fun.

RIM at UO

Wed, 13 Sep 2000 19:19:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - The Recreation and Intramural program at the University of Oregon is top notch. I was a part of it as a player for my three years as a student at the school and the last two years as an official. I played indoor and outdoor soccer and basketball on...

The Garden Could Use Some Flowers

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - Last NBA season I was able to see a few NBA games with my favorite team, the hometown Portland Trailblazers hosting two games with the San Antonio Spurs and one with the rival Seattle Supersonics.

Tickets at the Rose Garden are not cheap, I...

The Watcher, Don't Bother

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 20:38:13 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - The Watcher is billed as a very intense, very scary movie; I didn’t think so at all.

First, let me give the movie a very important thumbs up for not giving Keanu Reeves any real lines, not trying to make him into a real person. As we all...

Revolting and Exciting

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 20:34:38 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - The Cell was the most socially revolting movie I have seen in a long time. There were instances of extreme gore and torture, enough to make all but the hardiest of stomachs a little queasy. The glimpse into the mind of a maniac will make the most...

Eva Peron

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 20:32:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - The movie Evita, starring Madonna in the title roll and Antonio Banderas as the narrator, portrays the life of Eva Peron extremely well. Eva Peron was a woman who rose from the lower class of Argentina to be arguably the most powerful person in her...

Just Like My Life

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 18:59:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - This comedy from the man who brought as the cult classic cartoon Beavis and Butthead, Mike Judge, hits the nail on the head.

All of us have wanted to do the same thing the characters in the movie did. Be that destroying a printer, getting a...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - Last summer, I went to my first major league baseball game when I was visiting a friend in Boston. I saw the Boston Red Sox host the Philadelphia Phillies, the first game after the All Star Game had been played in Fenway.

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 15:08:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - A couple weeks ago, I finally made it to Seattle to see a Mariners game. I have been meaning to go for years, but just never had the time or money. I saw two games against the Cleveland Indians, on Saturday and Sunday.

Kevin Smith's Dogma

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 14:19:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jason_fleming - Dogma, the most recent movie by as-unmainstream-as-you-can-get-and-be-mainstream legend Kevin Smith, doesn't quite live up to the expectations of his previous backbreaking laughers. True, with a cast of characters that includes Ben Affleck (Good Will...
