The Godfather Part II (1974)

A real classic better than the first part!!!

[8/10 · 11 June 2005]

This is a real classic, and i have to say it this godfather 2 was even better than the first Godfather, if the first won an Oscar as the best film, this one should won more than an Oscar.

In this sequel, Al Pacino comes again as Michael Corleone, now as a Don, Pacino did it really great as the new Family boss, maybe one of his better performances ever.

Also John Cazale performing Fredo Corleone, Michael's brother, we did it so well that i think he deserved the Oscar for the best supporting actor.

But who was extraordinary in the Film was Robert De Niro, performing a young Vito Corleone, in his beginning of becoming a Mafia boss, De Niro, is maybe the best actor ever, and in this movie he was outstanding, even talking Sicilian dialect that he didn't talk. So my rates are.

Direction: 9/10. plot:9/10. Adaptation (from book to novel): 7/10. Pacino performance: 8/10. De Niro performance: 10/10. Overall: 8/10.

Goodfellas (1990)

The best Mafia movie ever, a real masterpiece!!!

[10/10 · 9 June 2005]

"as far back as i can remember i always wanted to be a gangster".

"The best mob movie ever" that's what Saskel and Ebert say, and i couldn't be more agree, this is a real masterpiece, and after pulp fiction my favorite film ever.

It's better than the Godfather because the Godfather only show us one aspect of the mafia, the power of the boss, Goodfellas in the other hand show us another part of the Mafia, the world in which mafia members live, their friendships, the betrayals, the way they think and act.

This is the story of Henry Hill, a young man half Irish and half Italian who always wanted to be a gangster, for him being a gangster is just the life for him, he always act with his friends Jimmy (Robert De Niro), and Tommy De Vito Joe Pesci, but he can't be a higher member of the mafia because he's not completely Italian.

This is definitely not only the best Scorsese film, but also a masterpiece of films of all times, Liotta as Henry Hill did it well, and of course De Niro was excellent as Jimmy Conway, but the best performance was Joe Pesci as Tommy De Vito, he definitely deserved the Oscar he won as best supporting actor. 10/10.

Independence Day (1996)

Inde-Crappy Day!!!

[2/10 · 3 June 2005]

This film is mediocre as hell, there were only 2 good things about this film, and if it weren't because of these 2 things it were the worst film i've ever seen in my life.

and these 2 things are: Special effects and Will Smith's performance.

Of course the film was made only to show its special effects and with an ilogical plot, of course there are many films with superb special effects with a worse plot, just for giving an example we have Jurassic Park 2, that movie really suck a lot.

But of course Will Smith did his performance very well, it was funny when he fights against the alien, only that thing saved the film. My rate: 2/10 with an extra point because of the Will Smith's performance.

Bruce Almighty (2003)

Bruce Unfunny!!

[2/10 · 3 June 2005]

You know i'm a real Jim Carrey fan, at least i used to be, i like a lot the Mask, Me myself & Irene, Liar liar, Dumb and Dumber, and Ace Ventura (the first one because the second one sucks).

But this movie.. oh man it wasn't funny at all, i wasted an hour and a half watching this film.

The film is not only loaded with melodramatic crap, there was a lot of thing that annoy me a lot.

One of these for example was the fact he was a loser, and after been god he's been a loser again, with the same job he had.

Another bad thing about the movie, he rejected Susan??, i mean come on how could he reject that girl, she was so damn cute.

And there were a lot of thing that annoy me but i can remember right now.

My Rate: 2/10.

Bad Santa (2003)

Crap Santa!!

[1/10 · 2 June 2005]

This movie really sucks, how could i waste my time watching this crappy movie?, well i didn't watch it all because i couldn't stand it anymore, 30 first minutes were disguting, i couldn't see more, even i saw crappy "son of the mask" for a longer time, this film is way overrated it deserves to be in the bottom 100.

How it was possible talented people did this movie?, i have seen b- movies funnier and with a better plot than this one.

The development of the history was completely crappy, i still don't understand how this movie could have a 7.2/10 rating, the characters didn't convince me at all.. anyway that is what a call a poor excuse for a movie, Billy Bob Thornton don't do it again please, how it was possible so many people actually liked that mediocre film as bad as 80s b-movies.

My rating: 1/10.

A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004)

Lemony Snicket a series of stupid events.

[1/10 · 30 May 2005]

A series of unfortunate events the tittle says, and the first unfortunate event was paying for watching this movie, the second unfortunate event was wasting my time watching the movie, and the third unfortunate event was the disappointment of Jim Carrey's performance.

You know i didn't really had so hight expectatives about the film, but as a Jim Carrey fan i had to see this movie, i thought "well maybe the film is not too good but perhaps because the Jim Carrey's performance it would be nice to see it", i was damn wrong.

The movie was damn boring as hell, the characters real lame and the worst of all, not even the Jim Carrey's performance was good, this is by so far the worst Carrey movie.

If i haven't see Son Of the Mask which really is a crappy movie this would be the worst movie i have seen lately. 1/10.

Son of the Mask (2005)

Awful please don't do it again!!!

[1/10 · 30 May 2005]

You know i wasted an hour of my life watching this extremely crappy film, yes you read well an hour because i didn't see the whole movie, after one hour i got the hell out the movie theater because i couldn't stand it anymore, i usually don't do that i watch the whole movie even if it's bad but this time i couldn't do it because was extremely crappy.

And the worst of all it's it is suppose to be a sequel of the great Jim Carrey movie, one of the best comedies i've seen in my life and this crappy movie suppose to be the sequel.

What can i say about the movie?, low humor, bad jokes, actors not funny at all, not credibility at all acting, bad directed, what in the hell they where thinking about when they did this film. 0/10.

Game of Death II (1980)

The worst Bruce Lee's movie

[6/10 · 27 May 2005]

You know, i'm a Bruce lee fan, but this movie is cold as hell.

Of course they did it after Bruce died because i really doubt the real Bruce would like to do that film been alive.

It's not like the seventies movies you know, it was different, the movie was not good, the plot has not sense at all, the villains are really dumb, some good fights but nothing special in the other Bruce's films we can see better fights.

So for me, well i haven't see fist of fear and fury of the dragon, but Including big boss, fist of fury,return of the dragon, enter the dragon and game of death this one is the worst.

I'll give it 6/10 and only because i fell respect for Bruce Lee.

The Powerpuff Girls (1998–2004)

It's great!!

[27 May 2005]

It's a great show, it's like an anime from Japan but it's an American- Hong Kong production.

And it's nice because it's a funny show, it has a lot of hidden jokes, it's entertainment for kids and adults.

The characters are mad funny.

The girls: Blossom the leader, Bubble the lovely girl and angry Buttercup, i think the funniest of all them.

And the mayor, so dumb, the Professor Utonium a genius but dumb at the same time.

And the villains they're all so good, specially Mojo Jojo.

So i'll give this show 8/10.

Money Train (1995)

The best j-lo

[7/10 · 27 May 2005]

The movie itself is kind of good.

It has funny scenes and stuff but the movie itself it's no too good, it could be better, it could have more scene actions, it could be a better plot.. anyway some details that could do it better.

But it was one of the first movie when we could see that Hispanic beauty named Jennifer Lopez AKA J-Lo.

When i saw this movie and i saw her i had the feeling she was going to be something great, and it's because since that moment she looked so damn beautiful and so sexy that i thought she was going to be something big.

And in that film she looked even better than never, with that beauty and that sex appeal Ms Lopez have.

So this movie is recommended for all Ms Lopez' beauty lovers.

Pulp Fiction (1994)

This is my favorite film ever!!!

[10/10 · 27 May 2005]

Pulp: a magazine or book printed on cheap paper (as newsprint) and often dealing with sensational material, Fiction: something invented by the imagination or feigned; specifically : an invented story b : fic This is my favorite film ever, and for many reasons.

.."and you will know my name is the Lord when i lay my vengeance on them".. (gunshots)

Is a very innovative film, the characters are L.A gangsters, (except for the Butch character who is a boxer running away from the gangsters), but very likable and with a lot of personality.

The way they have different stories but at the end all stories go together, the dialogues, the quotes, even the soundtrack.. anyway, this is the best movie ever made, very original an clever and with an unique style, definitely it should win an Oscar. 10/10

Scooby-Doo (2002)

Crap!!! (but adorable Sarah Michelle)

[2/10 · 27 May 2005]

There is only a good thing about this movie and her name is: Sarah Michelle Gellar.

I love Sarah Michelle but the movie sucks.

I like the seventies cartoon, but now when they made a movie of that, they couldn't do it worse.

The plot is so nonsense and so boring, the Scooby looks so fake, the ending so corny.. anyway i don't know what was the worst thing about the movie.

But only for one thing was good to see the movie, and as i said before, that was Sarah Michelle Gellar, the drop dead gorgeous beauty now with red hair, and with that dress looked super adorable, it was good to see her after been so bored watching the film.

So i'll give it 2/10, i would give it 1 but because Sarah Michelle i'll give it an extra point.

Boat Trip (2002)

Boob trip

[7/10 · 26 May 2005]

The movie itself was not too good, yeah i know.

But it wasn't so bad neither, let's say it was a just okay movie.

But the best thing about the movie: The girls.

Beautiful blonde babes, delight us with their beauty, the Swedish bikini team, a lot of blonde beauty.

But the best thing: Ooooooooooh man!!!, i thought i was going to have a heart attack: Puerto Rican Beauty Roselyn Sanchez, she is so damn sexy, not only beautiful, but a lot of sex appeal, i don't care if the movie was good or bad, just for having the pleasure of watching that Hispanic beauty it was good to see the film.

Bedazzled (2000)

With a Devil like that i would sell my soul!!

[26 May 2005]

You know i don't even know what rate i should give to this movie.

It could sound strange but i barely can remember the film.

I don't think it was too good, but it wasn't too bad neither.

Was not not a very clever comedy, they could do it better, but also worst.

But the main thing here.

Have you see that Devil?.

Elizabeth Hurley as the Devil, with a Devil like that wouldn't you sell your soul.

So in a few words, for Elizabeth's beauty lovers: this movie is for you, not a clever comedy but with a damn sexy devil.

I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)

Jennifer Love and Sarah Michelle a pair of beauties!!

[7/10 · 26 May 2005]

You know i really don't remember too much about the plot and many other details about the movie.

I just remember it wasn't bad at all, it was better than Scream (and specially than Scream 2 which really sucks!!).

But who the hell cares about the plot?.

The really good think about this movie was that we can see a real pair of beauties, 2 of the must beautiful girls in show business, i mean drop dead gorgeous brunette Jennifer Love Hewitt and so damn beautiful blonde Sarah Michelle Gellar.

I really don't care if the film was o wasn't good, just for seeing that pair of beauties i will see it once and many times.

Heartbreakers (2001)

Jennifer love super adorable!! but the comedy sucks!!

[6/10 · 26 May 2005]

It was good watching beautiful Jennifer Love Hewitt, in this movie she looks soooooo pretty, maybe prettier than ever except maybe in i know what you did last summer, i'm a Jennifer's beauty lover and only for that reason it was good to see the film.

But rest of it....

The film was sooo boring, silly plot, predictable, an unfunny comedy, let's be honest that comedy sucks.

So in a few works without Jennifer's parts this movie would be a waste, i love Jennifer she's drop dead gorgeous but the movie sucks.

I'll give it 6/10 and only because of Jennifer, if it wasn't Jennifer there i would give it less than that.

Mission: Impossible (1996)

Mission impossible.. of watching

[1/10 · 17 May 2005]

The name of the movie couldn't be better, Mission Impossible because it was impossible of watching.

This is a very boring action film, i hoped something better because the 2 TV series, the nineties one, and the sixties one were two great TV series.

But this movie.. man it was boring as hell, i don't know how i didn't fall sleep in the middle of the movie, it could be more boring?.

Tom Cruise in one of his worst performances, not only him, everyone in the movie were so lame, the plot itself have no sense.

So this is my review, one of the most boring films i have seen in my life, i give it 1/10.

12 Monkeys (1995)

It sucks!!!

[1/10 · 14 May 2005]

this movie really sucks, somebody explain me cause i really don't understand, how this movie can be in the top 250.

Not only is boring (i almost fall sleep in the middle of the movie), it's really hard to understand, i really didn't get it, how in the hell was happening there?, i got damn lost.

So that's what i really say this is a way overrated movie, one of the worst Bruce Willi's movie and it really sucks a lot, but i mean a lot, only who made the movie understand it.

So that's what i say if you wanna see a movie you can't understand and fall sleep in the middle of the movie this movie is just for you.

Thunderball (1965)

The best James Bond movie and the prettiest Bond girls

[9/10 · 14 May 2005]

This is definitely the best 007 James Bond movie ever, with the best actor who interpreted the agent Sean Connery, you have to see for the year 1965 the special effects were very good, and the girls, well what can i say?.

I have always like the James Bond movies because of the action scenes and because of the girls, and in this movie the girls are prettiest than ever, with redhead beauties Claudine Auger and Luciana Paluzzi, and brunette gorgeous Maxine Bershwich, this movie have drop dead gorgeous beauties, which i like as a female beauty lover.

What else can i say, it is important to see this movie not only because of the girls, but because it was like what we have before the action movies we have today, and there we can see how these movies were before.
