Final Destination (2000)
Teen Movie Only! - Story that lacks depth
I originally sought out the movie because of the James Wong/X-Files link. I was hoping for some thought provoking movie in the Horror Genre. But I was disappointed. The story lacks depth. Its essentially a bunch of teens running around getting bumped off. Does that sound familiar? On the plus side - the start was great. After the first 15 minutes, I was left wondering where could it go after this? Unfortunately it went to exactly the same place as the movie "scream"! I thought it was a great movie to look at and the acting was good, it was just the story that was lacking. I would recommend the movie if your are into teen movies or if you are a "teen". I guess if your are into the X-Files - you might want to check out what Mr. Wong is upto - its worth watching - But not buying! 06/10
Always (1989)
An overlooked Speilberg gem! "its nearly excellent!"
Well I have heard many comments about this movie from it's "trite" to it's "excellent", and having watched for the first time, I find I fall in he - "it's nearly excellent" category. It has a sort of "old world" - pre WW2 Hollywood mentality, that I can understand people considering trite, but I found it a film of great warmth and hope. The performances of the ensemble cast are great and any fan of drama will enjoy the performance and pairing of Dreyfuss and Hunter, John Goodman And Hepburn also deserve mention.The movie is a fantasy and a good story for those who want to be entertained - a good family movie - that I do recommend - 8.5/10
