Best Horror Film Since the Sixth Sense
This was a surprisingly good horror movie. I love John Cusack, because of Say Anything, which is the only reason I wanted to see this movie, but it was actually good. It wasn't exactly scary, but it made you think more than say, the Grudge 2, like the Sixth Sense. It was fairly predictable, but it's a horror movie. What do you expect. It was too long as well.
For Samuel L. Jackson fans, be warned that he really isn't in this movie very much.
For those who don't like horror movies, don't see it.
For everyone else, SEE IT!!!!
The Grudge 2 (2006)
Hilariousl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This movie is supposed to be a horror movie, right? Was it made in the eighties? Because this movie was so funny! Amber Tamblyn is a good actress, but the premise of this movie is just so random. The little dead boy is too cute to be scary! And they're blue! and people just disappear! It's just funny! At first it's a little scary, but after a certain point, its gets really old and not scary at all. The end is depressing though, and sets the movies up for a third. I would not suggest you see this movie is theaters, though, because there will be teenage girls screaming at the titles. I'm going to buy this movie when it comes out on DVD and watch it when i need a laugh!
Smallville (2001)
Possibly the best show ever!
This is really the best fiction show ever. You can't compare it to reality shows because this show isn't exactly reality-based, but it is still awesome. For those who don't know, Smallville is about Superman in the pre-Superman days. The show starts at the beginning of Clark Kent's freshman year of high school. But he doesn't have what you'd call a normal life, even for Superman. In each episode he has to solve some mystery that has to do with the meteor shower that Clark arrived in Smallville in. But he is also like a normal teenager: throughout the show, he also has to deal with being just friends with the "girl of his dreams" Lana Lang, his best friend who likes him, Chloe Sullivan, and his "best friend" Lex Luther. About half-way into the show, Lois Lane shows up.
So what do you get when you mix a small town with the supernatural and aliens? Smallville!!!
Walk the Line (2005)
dragged on
Walk the Line was a good movie, no doubt about it. Joaquin Phoenix practically became Johnny Cash, and Reese Witherspoon was perfect for the role of June Carter. It was interesting to learn about how Johnny Cash got started, how his brother died, how he was married when he met June, as was she, and how he was in the Air Force before he became a star, which was what technically got him started, anyway. Tyler Hilton played a good Elvis and Waylon Payne played a good Jerry Lee Curtis.
Now this is why I didn't like it: it dragged on forever! Johnny Cash was kind of messed up and took drugs a lot, but that was what the entire movie circulated around. The entire move, Johnny is walking around high or drunk. It's depressing!
See it, but kids probably won't enjoy it.
What Not to Wear (2003)
Amazing show!
I love this show. Stacy London and Clinton Kelly are my idols. They are funny, and they have great fashion sense. Everyone has such BAD fashion sense, but they always look good at the end. They also get really mad at the beginning, but they always thank Stacy and Clinton in they end, even if the victim didn't really like them. Nick Arrojo is extremely talented as a hairstylist. I don't think I've ever seen a bad cut or dye job when he did it. And Carmindy Bowyer is very good at make-up. I've taken many of her tips. Sometimes she uses a bit too much, though. This is an amazing show and it is so much fun to watch, especially seeing the people before and after. Diffinitely watch it! It's on TLC at noon every day and new episodes are on at 9 o'clock on Saturdays, also on TLC.
Take the Lead (2006)
One of the Best Dance Movies Ever!
Okay, technically, there aren't a lot of dance movies out there. There's only Dirty Dancing, Dirting Dancing; Havana Nights, Strictly Ballroom, and this movie, and they are all great.
But it might just me, because, in my opinion, all dance movies are good, because, duh, there's dancing in it!
But this movie is about more than just dancing. If you don't know, this movie is about a ballroom dancer (Banderas) who wants to teach a group of social misfits how to ballroom dance during detention. But unlike Strictly Ballroom and others, it doesn't just follow one person, and it has multiple conflicts. You don't just see them improve their dancing, you see them improve as a person. It has a bit of Dirty Dancing; Havana Nights type of dancing, in the sense that they mesh different types of dancing together, coming up with a controversial, but beautiful dance.
They end it satisfying, and the dancing is so amazing! Definitely a movie to see. Over and over again!
High School Musical (2006)
Good movie, but Tisdale needs a bit of help.
This was a very good movie.
If you don't know what it's about, well, it's about two kids who meet at a karaoke party and then find out they are going to the same school after the second semester starts. They don't love music, but are extremely paranoid about it, since she is a genius and he is a jock, but when they try out for the winter musical, they threaten the "status quo".
The music was very good, although Ashley Tisdale can't really sing and Vanessa Anne Hudgens can't act, their both pretty so they balance each other out. Plus, Zac Efron can sing AND act, and he's not lacking in the looks department either...
But the view of high school is way different. Don't believe what it says about high school! It's all lies!!! Except that people really aren't very nice.
So, all and all, a very good movie, especially for Disney Channel, who aren't very good at that. If you can stand listening to Ashley Tisdale, then your deaf, though.
And the end is kind of disappointing.
Newsies (1992)
this movie was awesome! this does not contain a spoiler unless you don't want to know a thing a bout this movie
This movie was really cool.
Newsies is about a group of newsboys who go on strike when the prices for the papers go up. With Christian Bale (singing and dancing) and Robert Duvall, what could go wrong with this Disney movie? The story is based on actual events, so the storyline was great. the acting was superb, and i'm not normally pleased with kid actors. and it definitely helped that the dancing was really good. you almost can't believe that the kids are actually doing the dancing. with twists all through the movie, and lots of comedy, this is a great movie for kids and adults (except if you hate music, but that would be very sad).
Gotta Kick It Up! (2002)
It was good if you like that kind of thing
this movie was pretty good. its about a bunch of girls who really need extra credit, so they try out for the dance team, and since none of them are at all good at dancing, they all make it. but they have serious problem both at home and with the teacher. the storyline wasn't great, but the actors were good and it has a good moral. i wouldn't recommend it if your not into dance, or music. if you weren't then you would find it a total bore. if you are on a dance team or are a cheerleader, then this would be a good movie for you (especially for a cheerleader, you could learn the cheer. its really not that hard. you just have to be flexible).
