Memphis Belle

Someday, hollywood will officially beat WWII to death. I think if you watched every WWII movie back-to-back-to-back, it would probably last longer than the war did. So many of them are just like this one – a mediocore story about kids thrust into an extrodinary circumstance. Sure, it’s a decent movie, but considering the subject matter, you’d have to work to make it a really bad film.

 

Mask

Gosh, what a sad movie. It does make one think about those people that aren’t blessed with a “normal” body or normal life. I think almost everybody has been guilty – at least on the subconscious level – of seeing a disfigured person and cringing. I think there must be some evolutionary biological mechanism at work there. What would happen if the elephant man’s mother was a biker chick? go see this movie and find out.

 

The Fly II

This movie is the definition of average. Not great, not horrible, just blah. It had some neat special effects… ok writing, a passable story… I dunno. Worth a watch if you really liked “the fly” and are dying to know what happens next. (update – I just saw this again, and the end was corny and cliche)
