Idiocracy (2006)

I want to Vote Zero out of 10

[10/10 · 21 March 2008]

If only I could vote zero I would.

This movie shows exactly how the US culture appears to be heading, and I want to be as far from that culture as possible. The scary thing about this movie was that the vision of the future showed entertainment being enjoyed that our US contemporaries enjoy. Monster trucks, Pro wrestling, and so on. The lead female role was unfortunately about as smart as the actual characters portrayed in the future.

Watching this movie made me feel less intelligent, and the humour level could easily match that of an uneducated teenager. Don't waste your time, even if you can watch it for free. Read a good book instead.

Other Voices (2000)

Very strange indeed.... but keeps you going till the end

[3/10 · 30 August 2002]

Although I found the overall idea for this movie to be motivating enough to watch it to the end, the continuing twisting and turning of the plot throughout the movie lends you to a strange and bumpy ride. In my opinion the story line/plot just didn't cut it..

I'm not sure if the director intended for this to be a thriller, or a drama, or a "unfaithful" style movie.

Worth a one time watch when it pops its head up on a cable movie channel, then don't bother after that.

Miss Congeniality (2000)

A better than usual Sandra Bullock flick

[7/10 · 31 March 2001]

This movie actually had some great humorous moments. It was a different role for Sandra Bullock, but by the end it was much of the same.

Michael Caine was a good choice for his character, but William Shatner, what a waste. He had nothing useful to commit to this film than the fact that he is Bill.. back to watching Star Trek for me...

Worth a watch, but maybe wait for it on DVD.
