Sat, 2 Jun 2001 12:53:28 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author senshimo - The movie, Almost Famous, focuses on the one aspect of the 1970's that I adore: the music! You'll follow the young rock journalist in his quest to get "that one interview" with the lead singer of the fictional band StillWater. In the meantime, you'll...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author senshimo - I had just rented Disney's "Dinosaur" on DVD. If you wish to see this movie, make sure you see it in DVD format. The picture and sound are crystal clear. Also, I find it easier to skip around and find certain scenes!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author senshimo - I've always wanted to see this movie, even in the first run in the theaters. The parallel realities concept was so interesting! Yet, I missed the theater run - because not enough hype was applied in advertising.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author senshimo - In usual Epinions about movies that I have seen, I like to explain the plot briefly. Yet, Epinions usually provides one, so there is no real point in re-hashing it. I just wanted to clear that up before I begin.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author senshimo - I saw "X-Men" the second day after the opening night. I am a fan of the comic, but I had watched the Saban cartoon more than I had read the book. My favorite X-Men are Storm, Nightcrawler, Gambit and Rogue. I am a fan of elaborate sagas...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author senshimo - It may seem that I didn't like Fantasia 2000 from this Epinion, but it is on my Love List for a reason. This movie was long due: it had been Walt Disney's intention to release a new fantasia every few years with new segments added. Now, from January -...
