Not my Type of Movie
6 July 2002
I was very disappointed in Bourne Identity! I had read reviews and expected to see a mystery, but I did not realize that it was one of those LOUD, BANG, CAR RACES type of movie. This is a movie for the younger generation. Every time "Bourne" hit someone with his fist, the sound was like an earthquake through the theater. I rate the film a 4 out of a possible 10 tops. Give me a quiet, mystery anytime! And make it not quite as much mystery.

An Unusual Tale
4 July 2002
I liked "Like Water for Chocolate" because I enjoy off beat stories, and this certainly is one!

It was crazy, but fun! I doubt that many will like it because of the sub-titles, but I did not find them a hinderance to the story.

If you are getting tired of Hollywood's "same old-same old" you will like this one!

The Majestic (2001)

Do You Like a Good, Old-fashioned, Movie With High morals?
29 June 2002
Where has this movie been? I first heard about it from a friend.

It is an excellent film. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

I do not usually enjoy Jim Carrey, so I ,at first, hesitated to view the film. But I am certainly glad that I did. He was a delight to see in this one. I highly recommend The Majestic.

DO NOT MISS IT!

Excellent Film
5 May 2002
I found Fiddler on the Roof to be an excellent, entertaining film.

I like broadway musicals and this one's adaptation to the screen is great. (I have not seen the stage show)

I liked the music, the comedy, and the drama. It was sadder than I expected it to be, but did have its funny moments.

I highly recommend the film!

Interesting, more so after knowing it was based on fact.

I Dreamed of Africa could have been a better movie, but I became more satisfied with it after seeing that it stayed pretty close to the real story.

Some have criticized the film because they said it showed no problem with malaria, and the people looked as if they were never sweating in Africa's heat.

The 100,000 acre ranch in Africa is located at an altitude of 6000 feet above sea level, and there is no malaria problem there. It is probably somewhat cooler there than other places in Africa also.

I found the film to be pretty good, but I believe the nude scene with Bassinger and her film husband was unnecessary. Does Hollywood believe that every film has to have nudity?
