Brat Camp (I) (2005)
Very Interesting show
5 March 2007
I have just seen the pilot in Canada and I'm ready to see the next kid. It's reality about messed up kids being given a chance to make things right. Not all parents are perfect and some people see this camp as punishing kids, but they need to be diciplined. This isn't abuse. They are being sheltered, clothed, and fed appropirate healthy food. They are surrounded with trained survivalists and people able to help them. In a way these kids need to de-tox from the bad path each of them are on before the end up in prison or worse. This show is the reality upon the fictional series "Neon Rider" and "Higher Ground" is based. Both are about kids who are messed up and need to rough it to get clean. I look forward to the next episode.

The Magic of Ordinary Days (2005 TV Movie)
a pleasant film!
30 January 2005
I was very eager to see this film and I wasn't disappointed. This is a great chick flick film, especially for those who love period dramas. It was a wonderful experience to watch 2 people thrust together to find contentment, and then love. Keri Russell and Skeet Ulrich were wonderful as the newly married couple. The only downside to this film was the subplot involving the Japanese interment girls. It took away from the pace of the film. The rest of the supporting cast filled in nicely. There was indeed some magic in this film. Some may argue its to fake for their taste, but I loved the film. Overall it was a wonderful film. I give it 7.5 out of 10 stars! I can't wait till it comes out on DVD!

A Grand Finale!
9 November 2003
The cast and crew did an excellent job with the end of the Matrix series. I enjoyed the film emmencly. I only had two problems with the film, and that is the purpose of the little girl in the story, and the fact that you don't know for certain if Neo is dead. Either way the directing duo did well by the presedence they've established with the release of the first film. The critics don't know jack, for the Matrix series has always remained a science fiction film that tells a great story. The fight sequences weren't over done, because this film has humanity facing its ultimate destruction. This finale chapter in the Matrix trilogy was well told. Everyone who participated on these three films should be proud of the work they helped produce. BRAVO!

Unworthy to carry the name Terminator!
2 July 2003
I watched this film eagerly as a fan of the first two films and was disappointed. James Cameron's characters and story has been changed (in the words of monty python) "for something completely different"! The Terminator series is a world envisioned by Cameron and the director of this film took the story along his own path. Granted, the special effects were excellent as was the acting of the two terminators, but Linda Hamilton was wise to back away from this third film as it had no heart. It's an excellent action film with its humorous moments, but the true fans will see this film as an unworthy creation undeserving of the title Termiantor 3. This film does not make the terminator series a trilogy as it begins a whole new story into the wars after Judgement Day. Its title should only be "Rise of the Machines" for this film failed to live up to the TERMINATOR standards created by the cast and crew of the first two films.

A classic cold war film!
30 January 2003
Warning: Spoilers
warning! may contain spoilers!!!! The Hunt For Red October is an excellent cold war film supported with great acting by Sean Connery and Alec Baldwin! This film was an excellent adaptation of the Tom Clancy novel about a group of Russian officers trying to defect to the United States in the newest Soviet Submarine. This is not the standard Bond film and should not be expected as one. It is a little more realistic spy film that you could believe actually happened. Both Sean and Alec put in excellent performances as the defecting Russian captain and the CIA analyst who is the only one who believes the Russian's intentions are non-hostile. This is an excellent movie of the games submarines play of cat and mouse. I give this movie 8 stars out of 10! This cold war film is not one that should be ignored!
