Cutting Class (1989)
Excellent film
I don't know why it only has 3.5 stars. It has excellent acting with a wonderful supporting cast. nice boobs!! she's quite an attractive lady. much sexier than that brad pitt guy. the techno music created a nice ambiance, and the movie contained a great amount of suspense. i would watch it over and over and over again! i just watched it and I'm about to go back and watch it again! i just need to buy some more popcorn. oh, how i enjoy popcorn. buy this one, you won't want to miss it. truly one of the best films of the decade. it makes star wars look like my little pony and my little pony look like barbie's adventure in las vegas.
The Ring (2002)
Scary!
I saw this alone, at night, and it was a bad idea. The movie was meant to scare, and it did an excellent job. From the opening scene to the horrifying finale, I was absolutely, 100% terrified.
The movie starts off innocently enough, with two girls, Katie and Rebecca, watching TV and talking aimlessly. However, the conversation soon turns to the "cursed" tape that Katie had seen last weekend. Both girls laugh it off, but there is still a heavy tension in the air. A series of disturbing things begin happening, such as the TV downstairs turning on and off by itself. Katie is killed, and Rebecca, after witnessing the horrible death, is sent to a mental hospital. The rest of the movie goes on show how Rachel, Katie's aunt, unravels the mystery behind the strange tape.
The plot line is interesting, and the scares were genuine.
I have never seen the original Ringu, so I can't compare it to that, but all on its own, this movie was pretty good. Just don't watch it alone at night!
Overall, 7/10.
Merry Christmas, Drake & Josh (2008)
Rather Disappointed
Big fan of the show since it came out five years ago, and the first two TV movies were great. But this? It's different. It wasn't really very funny; I laughed maybe five times. The humor was over the top at times and tried too hard to be funny; unlike the show, it just wasn't in a lot of scenes. Josh Peck just isn't Josh Nichols anymore; he not only looks different but IS different. The plot was unbelievable in most instances, and not overly creative. While other Drake and Josh movies/the TV show didn't try to make you learn a lesson, one thing that's nice about them since a lot of kid's TV shows do, this movie definitely did. And the ending was just kind of cheesy, honestly.
But, it was Drake and Josh, and seeing both of them together again on screen was kind of nice. They still have that great on screen chemistry that helps pull this movie together. Josh still has his wonderful spazzy moments, and Drake is still an obnoxious, self centered jerk at times.
Worth a watch if it's on TV or somewhere, but I wouldn't say buy it. It definitely disappointed me, as I was looking forward to more of the Drake and Josh that you just don't get here.
