Not a swan song
14 April 2024
This is absolutely the worst Robin Williams movie Without going into details or spoilers, upon viewing this movie, I believe I know the reason for Robin Williams' suicide.

Who is Leo?

Who is the dad?

Who is Joy?

What is Nolan's secret?

These and many more questions will be answered if you can afford to waste 88 minutes of your life.

Too bad such as sad performance in Robin Williams storied career.

Revelations will be made, however they are overshadowed by the total ineptness of every aspect of this fiasco.

It would have been much more interesting to go on the/a cruise.

No comments can convey the CRAP of a movie this.

RIP Robin Williams. I will erase thus movie from my memory.

I can't say much except the ending s*cked. I enjoyed the movie except the last 10-15 minutes. Did the producers/ directors need to add time ?

Too many commercials
16 May 2021
How can you follow any movie with this many commercials? Totally unenjoyable. Film Time 1:17. That leaves :43 min of commercials.

God's Gun (1976)
2/10
Wow! I thought , when I saw who was in it. End of Wow!
9 December 2008
Lee Van Cleef, Jack Palance, Richard Boone. How could this movie miss. It missed and it missed Big Time. Bad production, Bad Direction, Hilariously Bad acting. Richard Boone was dubbed. Not sure if Lee Van Cleef was dubbed. Bad Cinematography. It is night no then it is day. it is cloudy then it is not. Who camps in the middle of a road?

We are told that Lewis (a major character) is in Mexico. Does the Director,producer, anybody else involved in this production know how big Mexico is? We are then led to believe a kid will find this Lewis person in 2 days. The kid just happens to ride to the correct town on the 1st try. And on it goes.

I need to mention Bad camera work, oh I mentioned that. It is worth mentioning again, Bad camera work. Oh and bad directing. Wrong score for this film. Two pieces matched, the rest belonged in some other type of movie, not a western. The director should be shot!

Deadwood (2004–2006)
Falls Short..... Way Short..
22 March 2004
After watching the 1st part of this Series on HBO. I will be checking the guide so as I will not have to sit through another episode of this trash. I got 2 points to this show: 1). Wild Bill Hickok at some point in time went to Deadwood.

2). Every 4 letter word is used numerous times. It felt the 4 letter words were exchanged for other words, just for the sake of using 4 letter words. It was pointless. The acting-BAD, and that is from everyone. The script-BAD......... and everything about this show sucked. I was expecting something somewhat believable, what I left with has I didn't believe I watched this crap. 1/2* out of 5

Fun Movie
23 July 2002
A return to a simpiliar movie making time. Eight Legged

Freaks does not take itself seriously. If it did this movie would have been bad. This is a Fun, campy movie, 7 stars worth. If you are looking for a time reality check You will Not find it here..... The spider effects are pretty good. This is a Fun, campy movie, 7 stars worth.

What could have been..........if??
29 July 2001
Warning: Spoilers
Planet of the Apes succeeds in 3 areas: Costumes, makeup and sound. After that it is hard pressed to find any other redeeming qualities. Marky Mark aka Mark Wahlberg is horrific he is so unbelievable it is pathetic. It looks like the screenplay was written for someone else. The entire cast portraying humans is not good with the exception of Kris Kristofferson. The Apes are great. ******POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT **************** This is a horrible attempt at trying to redo with new ideas, even though it is not being classified as a remake, on the original. What is the deal with the swamp? I was waiting for Markey Mark to attempt humor with something in reference to Yoda's swamp. Whatever attempt is made for a plot twist is ineffective due to the lack of a plot. As I watched the ending to see this so called surprise, I left scratching my head and asking myself what the hell was that. and what was Tim Burton "tweeking" in the last few weeks before the release?? ************************************* If you want to see apes and apes this is a good movie if you want something new and don't care about the effects this is NOT a good movie. I enjoyed it for the apes. **1/2 out of *****

A Sense of Dejavu
16 February 2001
I went to this movie hoping for a unique experience. I left with a feeling of I've seen this several times. This movie seems to borrow heavily from several films and the more I think about it it seems to blatantly rip-off several films. This Movie has 1. desciples in training w/ Masters ......hmm perhaps Star Wars. 2. this movie has villains JADE FOX a chinese version of DARTH MAUL or DARTH VADER. 3. speaking of Masters notice the similarity of Li Mu Bai and Qui-Gon Jinn. 4. KUNG FU - "I know KUNG FU" those moves look really familiar.. hold it that was NEO in THE MATRIX. 5. Did I say KUNG FU. yes I think they stole something from 'Grasshopper' remember David Carradine???? 6. Those Sword Fights with the placement of the swords. Darth vs. OBI_WAN. This movie Replaced Light Sabers with Swords. I have to stop I will exceed the 1000 word allotment. The only thing I can recommend about Crouching Dragon is some of the effects, although we have seen the same moves and effects in THE MATRIX and in the EPISODE I, they are ok. If you want an excellent martial arts Foreign Flick with originality see SEVEN SAMURAI. This Movie is NOT EVEN the quality or orginality of SEVEN SAMURAI so I will not even compare the two. If anyone can email or tell me why in the Hell is this picture nominated for BEST PICTURE, please do..... ***** out of 10.. for cinematography and effects.

Omen IV: The Awakening (1991 TV Movie)
4/10
Omen + Omen II + Omen III = OMEN IV
16 February 2001
If you are hoping for ANYTHING new, you have chosen the wrong movie. Who can think that a movie that is a virtual replay of it's predeccesors can be good. Maybe the producer and maybe the director but hopefully they were not serious when they made this THING. This whole movie is like making a greatest hits DVD of the 1st 3 films, but changing the actors. BHHAAAAD.

Pumpkinhead (1988)
8/10
The movie for Halloween. Everything Blair Witch isn't
31 October 2000
With reservations on watching a movie with the Title of 'Pumpkinhead', one can easily assume cheap class B-Horror Flick..... If all Horror movies were this good. Pumpkinhead has the right ingredients to make it enjoyable. Thank goodness it is not like 'I know what you did Last Summer' and some of these other so called 'Horror' movies. Pumpkinhead succeeds where they fail. Florence Schauffler as Haggis could give the Blair Witch a couple of lessons. As for Pumpkinhead the monster/demon, who does come out of the Pumpkin patch (if LINUS only knew), there have been better and there have been many worse. This is definatly a good HALLOWEEN flick. ***1/2 out of *****.

Evil Dead II (1987)
3/10
I don't believe what it was I think I saw.
31 October 2000
After seeing Evil Dead 1 on DVD. I thought KICK butt. So, I went out and bought the limited collectors tin of EVIL DEAD 2. I have since put it up for auction on ebay. This movie is bad (and I mean in the awful way). It is far from scary, unlike the 1st. Sam Raimi made it a gore fest and forgot how to make a movie. It tries to spoof, it is far from funny. In fact it is far from everything but bad, and boy does this movie nail that. Now I know why Bruce Campbell wants to be referred to as Bruce "don't call me Ash" Campbell. *1/2 out of *****.

The Patriot (2000)
9/10
An excellent movie it is.......
16 July 2000
For all the nay-sayers and nit-pickers, just admit that this is one hell-of-a movie. As this movie touches on History it does not claim to be a Documentary. Name one movie that is historically correct.......... If you are thinking about going to see this movie do. As, I was skeptical, I almost made the mistake of not going. Never during the 2 hours and 44 min. does this movie drag or become unbelievable. If I wanted a History lesson a would take one. ****1/2 out of *****

Bats (1999)
3/10
Bad Bats Bad Movie
1 June 2000
lou diamond Phillips was the reason I rented the DVD. now I know what I would have missed if I didn't rent it. My advise is you are better off NOT watching this 'thing'. Everything that is wrong is wrong. A bat is big at 1 moment and in the next scene it is bigger. Same bat different size. plastic bats??? bats with canine teeth. Bat digs through dirt. Bats act better then the Actors, oops the bats were the actors, actually there was no acting. Bad Movie, Bad bat. *1/2 out of *****

Lee Van Cleef the definitive "spaghetti" star
1 June 2000
Is there a 'clean' copy of this movie. The quality of the DVD sucks, go into viewing this movie expecting poor quality. This movie is a true 'spaghetti western', although this movie is not WELL known it does the genre good. If you love spaghetti westerns this is a must see. I rated the movie **** out of ***** for the movie not the quality of the medium.

a collection of different sorts
5 April 2000
This is not only a movie of collecting bones, but also of collecting ideas from different movies. Take the ideas from SEVEN, KISS THE GIRLS and a few others in this genre and wha-laa you have THE BONE COLLECTOR. **1/2 at the best. Don't waste your time on this one.

Very simple. Even YOU can do it. RECIPE below.
9 August 1999
Items need: 1) video camera 2) camping gear 3) time

If you have gotten lost in the woods you too can relate. Throw in a hint of Deliverance, a hint of the supernatural, and WALAH! you have yourself a movie.

The more you see it the more you see
1 June 1999
For all the nay-sayers out there, go see Phantom Menace again. I have seen it, so far, 4 times. With each viewing, I seem to enjoy it more. Granted the first time I saw it I sort of got lost. The second time it made a little more sense. The third time-ahhhh. The 4th time superb. This movie is deeper than what you initially see on the screen. ****1/2 out of *****

Not what I expected......
20 May 1999
....and in this case, it was most welcome. American History X should be on the required viewing list for ALL High school students. I am trying to find a weak spot in the film, but I can't. This movie points out, and to, everything that is wrong in America.....'nuff said.... MUST SEE!! **** out of *****

Soldier (I) (1998)

Rambo + Road Warrior + Terminator = SOLDIER
25 April 1999
If you liked any, or all of the fore mentioned movies, than you will like SOLDIER. SOLDIER works for several reasons, one being Kurt Russell's performance. Lighten up on the harsh reviews of this movie, it is NOT that bad. ***1/2 out of *****.

The Matrix (1999)
9/10
Very short review
1 April 1999
I don't think I can describe this movie in any short manner. So, I won't begin. It is worth checking out. Watch for Agent Smith, he is one of the highlights. Don't go to the bathroom or concessions during the movie.... ***1/2 out of *****

This movie could have been good.
18 February 1999
The movie had the potential to be good. But, after about 20 minutes the viewer should give up. Granted I was not expecting great special effects, but good special effects would have been nice. The effects were BAD, they can't even be classified as special. The make-up, oh-so bad. The storyline BAD, BAD. The blond haired Diva, yea ok she looks this good after living alone for 11 years? The primitive tribes, I think they came from "Gilligan's Island". The costumes - where did the two Divas get those lace up shoes? This movie could have been good, if they never would have made it.

*1/2 out of *****.

Disco Beaver theme song makes this show.
16 February 1999
I found my tape of this long forgotten 'show'. Besides the Theme song 'DISCO BEAVER FROM OUTER SPACE'. This show is barely watchable. You will be flipping through channels,just like the couple flipping through the TV channels. This is a parody of TV.

The beaver is cool. The homosexual Dracula, the chick discussing her Peria experiences and the lady with the overly big lips discussing homosexuality show us everything that is wrong with TV. It is all BAD. Just like the beaver from outer space who seems to be lost in this new world, you will be too. *** out of *****
