For someone who never liked StarWars...
19 May 1999
I honestly don't think I ever saw any one of the first three StarWars movies all the way through, and if I did I don't remember it...so I guess I am not one of those people who went to see the movie at 12:01am on opening day just because it was StarWars. I had heard that JarJar Binks was somewhat annoying...I didn't find this to be the case. I had also heard that the little boy who played Anikin Skywalker was a bad act actor and I think he did a very good job. Ewan was wonderful as always, and Liam did a great job. Everyone did very well. From a non StarWars fanatic, I really think it is worth seeing...especially on the big screen.

Madonna really shone!
27 April 1999
This is the movie that showed everyone Madonna could act as well as sing, and do them at the same time.

She made me smile and cry in this movie. And she did it with grace and poise.

Antonio was his usual charming self.

This movie was excellently cast, acted and directed.

What a Surprise!
26 April 1999
I have to be honest and say I had absolutely no idea what to expect when I went in to see this movie. I had seen maybe one trailer and even then I didn't pay much attention to it.

Billy Bob Thornton and John Cusack had surprising chemistry despite their two completely different acting styles. Both did excellent jobs in the roles they were given.

Worth the price of admission to the theatre.

Sliding Doors (1998)

Beautiful Movie!!!!
26 April 1999
Is everything fate or destiny? And will you end up in the same place if you take a different road?

This is what this movie makes you think about.

It is an excellent concept, followed through with great direction and acting.

It has incredible acting and it was nice to see someone who could actually pull off a credible English accent and do it as well as Gwyneth Paltrow did.

Definitely worth watching at least once and just as charming when you watch it the second time.

It is almost impossible to film a film in a remote...
26 April 1999
It is almost impossible to film a film in a remote little village in Ireland and not have to say it was charming.

This is a sweet movie, beautifully acted, and makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside after.

It has several comedic parts in it, and is sure to make you laugh.

Rent it once and then buy it after, you will never tire of any of it.

Best Feel Good Movie I Have Ever Seen
26 April 1999
This was one of those movies that can be watched over and over and is just as funny the second time as it was the first time.

I have noticed some people being hung up on the fact that the lead character has a Scottish (not British like some think) accent and lives in the US. Is this uncommon in the states? And why are you letting it ruin a great movie for you?

It was beautifully acted by the ever charming Ewan MacGregor, and Cameran Diaz.

I laughed through this movie more than once and even bought it which is out of the norm for me.

It's a feel good movie with little idiosycrasies that make you chuckle.

Take this movie for what it is...something that is supposed to make you smile and feel good for the 2 hours it runs. Don't over-analyze it, just watch it and accept it.

A definite must see!
