The Emperor's New Groove (2000)
Truly superb piece of entertainment!
An amazingly good Disney movie like there has never been before!
It doesn't matter your age, this movie will definitely make you laugh. There are so many fine things about this film that I do not know what to start with!
Please, do yourself some good and SEE THIS MOVIE!
The Curse of the Jade Scorpion (2001)
Great entertainment!
This is a good movie, with great dialogs, good acting (especially Woody Allen) and an interesting story - and not just for Woody Allen fans!
Great fun (you will NOT get bored!) and I give it a 9/10!
Life of Brian (1979)
Comedy at it's best!
This is one of the best comedies of all time and a must-see for any serious 7th-art-lover (unless one has problems with jokes about religion ).
Great humor, small cast (a lot of actors playing multiple roles)... The scene with the centurion correcting a misspelled slogan is terrific. And so is the one with 'Biggus Dickus' and so many more.
And if you liked this, you must then see 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail'.
Highly recommended!
Babylon 5: The Gathering (1993)
Not bad, but there's room for better
As a Babylon 5 fan I have watched it more than once, last time today, after seeing yesterday another B5 movie "B5:In the Beginning". I must confess that the latter is much better. Still, it is not bad for a series' start. Some of the characters are portrayed differently than I've grown accustomed to in the series (like G'Kar for example), Delenn's makeup is less than perfect (compare it with the one in "In the Beginning") and she really looks unusual (after seeing her later transformation...).
But there are some good lines and Peter Jurasik(Lando Mollari)'s act is delightful and so is Mr Jerry Doyle(Garibaldi)'s. A good start for a B5 beginner and a must re-watch (after seeing the rest of the series).
When J. Michael Straczynski conceived B5, he really wrote a great story!
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001)
Even less entertaining than the last version of the PC game!
I remember playing some of the PC versions of the game and being astonished by the graphics quality (for that time) and a little annoyed by the fact that I had to re-load the game a lot.
I did not have high hopes the movie would be anything but a great looking Lara Croft(Angelina Jolie), lots of gunfire/explosions and people acting silly in really beautiful settings (both CGI and natural scenery). And that's the way it is!
Plus the script is bad, really bad, the actors don't do much except for a lot of sport (they probably had a great time doing this movie).
Happily it was just about an hour and a half!
On a 1 to 10 scale I would give it a 5.
Let's hope the Hollywood people don't decide to make a sequel!
5 out of 10.
