Swordfish (2001)
Pretend it doesn't exist!
19 November 2001
In an interview, John Travolta commented on how great the opening scene of this movie is. What he failed to mention was how bad the rest of it is! After the first 5 minutes, this movie does nothing but continually find ways to make you dumber.

The Story: A villainous patriot (John Travolta) thinks of something no one else has- a bank robbery. But because the bank has a computer in it, he needs to get the world's second best computer hacker (Hugh Jackman) to turn it on. Before the end credits roll, we get to see Halle Berry (and much more of her than usual), FBI agents, and even a porn queen. No wonder this movie was called Swordfish! Huh?

Deep Rising (1998)
9/10
Pure Pleasure!
19 November 2001
This is truly one of the best movies ever made. It's got smugglers, Famke, and everything else you'd want in a movie where giant sea creature attacks a carnival cruise ship. If only other movies could follow this formula!

Avalanche (1978)
A Natural Comedy!
19 November 2001
This movie is so bad that I had to run out and buy my own copy before it vanishes from the planet. Everyone should enjoy the pain that is avalanche. But, amongst the painful plot and characters, you are treated to some very memorable scenes that make this film worth owning. Name another movie that has unstable snow and acid milk. Instead of being sad when characters meet their doom, you cheer with glee as their burning car falls into a deep ravine.

A devastating blast of fun
9 March 2001
Ok, if you're going to pick a Cirio H. Santiago movie to watch, this should be it. Granted, the acting is weak and the plot needs some work, but you'll guaranteed to laugh at the amazing one liners occasionally spouted off. The movie is quite entertaining and it definately teaches everyone to beware of those hard-core, ruthless, killing marijuana growers. In Devastator, they are a force to be reckoned with.

There's nothing really mighty about it.
23 September 1999
This movie has some very goofy parts. Mainly when the troll, which was the same exact one that was used in "Troll 2" gets split in half by the mighty sword. This should not be a surprise since the director is the same for both films. The sets are also a hoot. Even though the film was made in 1990, it feels like you've been magically whisked away to an old episode of "Star Trek". The props and costumes also give off the aura that they are truly made of cardboard. I'm not even going to go into detail on how non-mighty the super sword looked.
