He is likable and funny without being too outrageous. Although if need be he can do physical humor as well, and no one has more... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~455889030788 Sun, 28 Dec 2008 04:51:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_455889030788?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_455867141764?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - Goya's Ghosts is rather like Hungarian Succotash, there's a lot of very good stuff in there, but you're not quite sure if it all goes together. The story is that of artist Francisco Goya, and a young Aristocratic girl Inez, whom he has recently... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~455867141764 Sat, 27 Dec 2008 23:30:12 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_455867141764?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_454008475268?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - This was just a great film, sorry musical, and it has the awards to prove it, including Critic's Choice, Golden Globe, and Oscar in music. I usually do not start by listing a film's awards (and this is a partial list), but it really is "Enchanted", and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~454008475268 Sat, 6 Dec 2008 15:12:13 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_454008475268?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_453954145924?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - The opening sequence of this movie was hysterical. Actually that's truly the way to open anything, with your best material. Of course anything that involves Penny Marshall, well say what you want, but the woman has comedic timing and is very funny... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~453954145924 Sat, 6 Dec 2008 04:49:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_453954145924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_453682630276?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - Ok, don't take offense, before there was the "Change Guy", there was Frank Lucas, who did really change things.  In the dope world that is.  Now for more serious fodder.  I don't really like to read other reviews about a movie... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~453682630276 Wed, 3 Dec 2008 23:50:12 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_453682630276?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_453305077380?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - I first heard Gil Scott Heron in the 1970's. Granted I was too young to run out in the streets and join any type of revolution. However I realized the power of his words, and the power of words in general. The power of words, which could be brutal, but... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~453305077380 Mon, 1 Dec 2008 03:16:54 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_453305077380?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_452476505732?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - After so many years of pure violence in movies, where the most gory of gory scenes do not shock, and nothing seems tabu, what would it take to actually make audiences flinch today?  Hmmmmm Micheal Davis must have thought, no one has tapped the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~452476505732 Sun, 23 Nov 2008 23:25:03 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_452476505732?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_452447407748?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - I might be creeping or slinking toward middle aged maturity.  I don't don't know, but I did not get this. Not that I did not understand.  Super cool 16 year old gets pregnant, dweebie, sort of marshmellow boyfriend, who doesn't look as if he... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~452447407748 Sun, 23 Nov 2008 17:57:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_452447407748?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_452440985220?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - Great acting by one of the Affleck brothers, and not the one you think.  You get two for the price of one, and they are both exactly where they belong.  Ben Affleck is definitely where he seems to contribute the most.  He is responsible... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~452440985220 Sun, 23 Nov 2008 16:53:29 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_452440985220?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_451965587076?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - Jason Statham is quickly becoming one of my favorite actors. It's not because he's such a great actor, because he's not. He's more like a modern day Clint Eastwood, or better yet James Coburn (of Magnificent Seven and our Man Flint fame, more aged... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~451965587076 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 04:23:13 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_451965587076?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_451852275332?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - I tried to not go into an ill-time posthumous gush about the genius of Heath Ledger. I still have not seen Brokeback Mountain, and knew his name as an actor however I could never really place the face. He has the unique ability of many of the most... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~451852275332 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 01:13:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_451852275332?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_412886929028?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - This movie will definitely not appeal to the general public. Samantha Morton stars in this 'Art House' film. In addition to definitely being an 'Art House' an in my opinion, not a great one. For the Lilith crowd, it might have some appeal. Imagine... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~412886929028 Tue, 1 Jan 2008 20:13:39 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_412886929028?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_412655914628?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - Could there ever be a time when Chris Walken does not inspire hilarity, a chuckle, when he's not funny? When even with the absurdity of his character he cannot pull out that smile, or some stance and win us over? Ummm strangely the answer to that... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~412655914628 Sun, 30 Dec 2007 22:34:30 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_412655914628?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_412651589252?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - Ron Howard directs this beautifully filmed story of intrigue and murder. Tom Hanks stars, and featured prominently are Audrey Tautou, Jean Reno, Sir Ian McKlellen, Paul Beattany, Alfred Molina and a host of others who provide an excellent supporting... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~412651589252 Sun, 30 Dec 2007 21:54:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_412651589252?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_412616593028?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - All good things must come to an end. I was surprised to see age set in on cartoon characters, they all seemed a little tired. Shrek, Donkey and Puss & Boots, even Princess Fiona seemed to have aged. Their voices sounded older, they lacked the sense of... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~412616593028 Sun, 30 Dec 2007 16:39:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_412616593028?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_412608859780?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - Sometimes a decent movie is all about the slick look, lots of guns play, fast car chases, the great music, the great looking actors/actresses, some ironic dialog. Well sometimes there is is not exactly the dialog, but most of the other elements can... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~412608859780 Sun, 30 Dec 2007 16:20:51 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_412608859780?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_412565147268?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - O.k. This is actually really a B-movie, that wins us all over on the strength of acting by Don Cheadle as Petey Greene, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Dewey Hughes, and Taraji Henson as Vernel Watson with a earth shaking strut to go with her out of this world afro... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~412565147268 Sun, 30 Dec 2007 05:51:54 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_412565147268?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_412560756356?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - I love Matt Damon as an actor, I love this series, but it's enough already. You know it's sort of like when you meet someone new, and the first (insert anything here), is great. The next couple of times it's still lots of fun, but over time, you start... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~412560756356 Sun, 30 Dec 2007 04:17:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_412560756356?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_408477798020?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - I do not always find Adam Sandler particularly funny, but I was pleasantly surprised this time. As Michael Newman, he is the guy sort of stuck in the middle. Adam Sandler hits just the right note. You get the sense that although he is terribly... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~408477798020 Sun, 25 Nov 2007 10:41:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_408477798020?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_407850552964?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - The Good - Jiminy Glick in La La Wood I can hear the whistling in the background, this is truly turning into "The Good" (Jiminy Glick), "The Bad" (Norbit) and "The Ugly" (28 Weeks Later). The genius of this movie lies in two factors, it's... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~407850552964 Thu, 15 Nov 2007 22:54:58 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_407850552964?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_407782067844?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - There comes a time in every comedian's life when they "Jump The Shark", become too "old" (intellectually) to be funny, or get so taken with their own hilarity that they don't realize they are no longer funny(see Chevy Chase). There was a time when Eddie... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~407782067844 Wed, 14 Nov 2007 23:18:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_407782067844?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_407651585668?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - I had heard that if you want horrifying action and terror in a world where real life seems much more frightening than anything in movie, see this movie. I saw it and, well I'm not exactly terrified. Actually I was personally just a bit... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~407651585668 Tue, 13 Nov 2007 09:47:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_407651585668?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_385337560708?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - I know, the title is too goofy so is this movie. The opening scene with young JB singing about his troubled life and artistic angst is hilarious. Especially since Meatloaf plays the father and he goes on a tiraid about the demonic music which has... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~385337560708 Tue, 3 Jul 2007 01:44:03 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_385337560708?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_384568561284?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - I know what they wanted to do, I just didn't feel they hit the mark, I would have liked to have seen something which played out a little less sophomoric (less emphasis on slick [not] dialog and look, more on actual story). Also I would have preferred to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~384568561284 Sun, 1 Jul 2007 12:50:12 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_384568561284?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_384373722756?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tiger62x - Oh we're not done yet, Dirty Dee is up next. At the Waffle house, Lunchbox is trying to get his grub on, his friend Dumas, who everyone calls Dumb_azz has a little fun with him.
