Sightings: Heartland Ghost (2002)
good movie, but...
As a person familiar with the case itself, the movie on its own was good, but I'm of the opinion that if the story isn't sensational enough to make it on its own, don't make up stuff to make it a good movie. I would say about 90% of the events portrayed were complete BS as to what allegedly happened.
That said, the movie held my interest until the "shout at the ghost/fire" scene that seems to be prerequisite in ghost films. Very well acted and a good story. Beau Bridges is great in it, although it always frustrates me when people claim to have an open mind but instead are only open minded about what they believe in.
American Wedding (2003)
The proof of remaining with the same creators
This movie is proof of how good sequels can be if you keep the same people in the creative process. So many sequels have been ruined because they are done by completely different people. There is a different director, but the writer is the same. The exception to this rule would be James Cameron's Aliens, but that rarely happens.
Even though it's got a different attitude from the other two movies, it's still clever and fun. The big gross-out did gross me out a little too much, but was still funny. Plenty of chemistry between the two leads. It's true that a pervert and a nympho can find happiness together (just look at me and my husband).
