A Case for Life (1996)
Thought Provoking
This movie puts forth the true picture of the issue of what "choice" is really supposed to be about.
Abortion is not the only "choice" available to women, and perhaps it isn't always the best medical decision. Women deserve to know what all their options are, pro and con, to make mature and informed decisions.
The moral of this particular movie is that even a woman facing a life-threatening pregnancy has the final say while everyone else is pressuring her to save her own life at the expense of her child's, and her decision should be respected.
Valerie Bertinelli does a superb job as a woman sticking to her pro-life principles.
This is a very serious and thought-provoking movie with no easy answers.
Sleepy Hollow (1999)
Scary, Gory, Funny
This movie gives the eternal message: if you sell your soul to the Devil, you will have Hell to pay in the end. Christopher Walken as the undead Hessian Demon has a face that will linger on men's memories longer than they would like! All in all, a thoroughly entertaining and memorable film. Not for young children.
The Mummy Returns (2001)
Fast-Paced, Fun Action, Thoroughly Enjoyable
I took my 12 year old daughter to see The Mummy Returns -- I didn't know what to expect, usually sequels aren't as good as the original--but I was very surprised to see this sequel is equal to or in some scenes, better than the original. I am glad they expanded Patricia Velazquez's role. The movie is still campy horror like the first Mummy, and I am glad they refrained from a show of blood and guts, which make it more suitable for younger (11 and under) viewers.
I do wish they had named the Pharoah's daughter a name other than Nefertiri, that was used already in The Ten Commandments -- they could have come up with a more beautiful name. Other than that, this mom & daughter enjoyed it. It was a lot of fun! I'll be buying the video, definitely.
Battling for Baby (1992)
Adorable!
This is an absolutely darling movie, great to watch on a Sunday afternoon. I especially like to watch it just to see the clothes the ladies wear in this film, plus the background sets (decorating). All in all, thoroughly enjoyable and heartwarming.
