A Beautiful Mind (2001)
Short but Sweet
From beginning to end an engaging movie of only the highest caliber. The cinematography was excellent and drew the viewer into the pathos of the various situations involving the characters. One does need some education when viewing this movie or else some comedic parts will not be understood. I was the only person in my theater who laughed at some such humorous spots. Oh well you can take them out of the country but you can't take the country out of them..........at least in southern West Virginia.
Impostor (2001)
Well worth reading!
For a change, I thought I'd see a sci-fi movie. I liked the storyline of this one and in general it was an interesting film that held my attention and interest. BUT they sure did not pay for much lighting throughout most of this movie. The scenes were filmed in dark settings which made it difficult to see what was happening (I don't mean the sex scenes, though it would have been nice to see them clearly too.) Recommend this one only for people who have good eyesight. Enjoy!
Out Cold (2001)
Even a blind man could find T and A in this movie; reach out and grab some.
Well, this movie ought to appeal to the teen crowd. The females can salivate over the young male actors and the male teen audience can spend their time adjusting themselves. Otherwise the movie had little going for it. Lee Majors is the only actor with name recognition for me. And while the others did okay in their roles very little new was offered in the tried and true script. It was a relaxing afternoon with several out loud laughs and I give it a 7 point score but realize you won't see this one up for an Oscar.
From Hell (2001)
Unique rendering of an old story.
Depp and Heather are excellent together. They have never be paired as in this movie. They bring a sense of gentleness to a rather macabre rendering of the old Jack the Ripper tale. Not for the squeamish. But a great movie none-the-less.
Hard Ball (2001)
Really hard pressed to say anything Keanu.
Hardball is a totally predictable film from start to finish. While the young boys gave excellent efforts in their roles and Keanu was his usual outstanding self, the story line has been over done. This film was entertaining and I enjoyed the efforts by all the actors but it is not the type of film Reeves has done so well in the past. This appears to be just a film for families with time on their hands on a Sunday afternoon. I rated it a six out of ten and recommend it for viewing teenage and up.
