Van Helsing (2004)
how bad can one movie be
the answer is...this bad. i have never seen a more disappointing movie in my entire life. I have seen worse movie (a few at least, but now many) but those movies i was either dragged to or had absolutely no expectations for. this was a movie that i really wanted to see. ooops my bad. by the end of the movie, the four people i saw it with and i were laughing at how stupid it was and how stupid the writer of the movie thought we were. they had to spell out every single thing in this movie (the end especially) like everyone in the theater was a bleeping moron. the acting (other than van helsings little monk helper) was ridiculously bad. the story was so stupid (i know its not supposed to be realistic, but come on) that there was no suspense at all because who really cared. and there was no way that any of these characters could have been humans because of what they had them doing. this movie was just flat out bad...and its going to make over 200 million dollards probably, im just embarrassed that eight of those dollars will be mine (16 if you count the fact that i paid for my girlfriend to see it, im just glad she is still talking to me, because after all, this was my pick). this movie was a joke
Win a Date with Tad Hamilton! (2004)
much better than expected
i got dragged to this sneak preview by my girlfriend and i ended up liking much better than she did. it is a fun little movie, extremely predictable, but fairly well acted and well done. basically you know what youre getting when you see this kind of movie and all you can do is hope they dont make it too lame. this has its corny moments but they are few and far between and the writers (or directors), and the actors know when it is corny, so it gets a nice laugh. topher grace seems like he can be a very good actor, he was great in traffic, he is good on the 70's show and hes effective here. kate bosworth is very nice to look at and almost makes up for blue crush. duhmel is also good, although i perfer his work on the tv show las vegas better. there are also two very funny cameos by nathan lane and sean hayes. all in all this is good stuff as long as you dont expect a very complex plot. 3 stars out of four
Punch-Drunk Love (2002)
great film
Whenever i would say to my friends that i think if Adam Sandler ever made a serious movie, i think he would be very good in it, they would call me an idiot, laugh, and start a new conversation about how the dumb things that would come out of my mouth. Finally sandler has proven me right. This is one of the best movies of the year and if there is any justice in the world sandler, PT anderson, Watson, Hoffman and the movie will all be up for oscars, but for some reason i doubt it.
Happy Gilmore (1996)
the proce is wrong b*tch
not a great movie but the bob barker fight was one of the funniest scenes i have ever seen. i have to say that i am a sandler fan so i probably am biased but i think that he actually is a decent actor and it does show even in a movie like this
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
the greatest movie of all time
this is by far the greatest movie of all time. never before, or after has there been a movie that both parent and child can go to see the same thing and enjoy it equally as much. i remember my dad bringing this movie home when i was seven and making me watch it, it was the greatist thing i have ever seen. i will never forget how frightend i was at the end of the movie, or the snake pit, or the rock following Indy, or when he shot the sword fighter. It's just a classic
