The Best of All Jurassic Park movies
15 August 2020
This is the best Jurassic Park movie of all 5 I have seen. My favorite character is Billy the parasailer played by Alessandro Nivoli who rescues Eric from the flying dinosaur. Plus, this movie has more comedy, bravery, and less violence then the first 2. Plus, it marks the return of Dr Alan Grant played by Sam Neill. Therefore, I highly recommend this particular sequel of the rest.

Outstanding sequel
20 January 2019
I bought this used for my birthday this year because of my favorite actor Brett Cullen. Plus, watching Loni Anderson (My Mother's Secret Life with Amanda Wyss) is a pleasure too. However, I find Bruce Boxleitner having a small cameo very depressing since he had been a excellent actor in the other Gambler movies. Meanwhile Brady Kawkes travels cross country to rescue his son Jeremiah who has joined The Wild Bunch lead by Butch Cassidy (Scott Paulin) and The Sundance Kid (Brett Cullin) before it's too late. Furthermore, the bear in the movie is so funny too.

Jaws (1975)
10/10
The best of the Jaws library
20 November 2018
This is the true classic Jaws movie with music that sounds more like victory instead of horror. Plus, I love the chase of the Orca vessel after the great white shark.

Jaws 3-D (1983)
10/10
Excellent prequel to the Steven Stielberg classic
20 November 2018
I remember when I saw this at the theatre in summer 1983. I like the actors, plots, and the theme of the Sea World aquatic park that is offered in this music. However the 3-D effects really scared me when I was 11 years old. Plus, I love the vintage Mercury V-6 outboard boat motors that were used in the movie. Meanwhile, I wish that Dennis Quaid & Bess Armstrong would reprised their roles for The Revenge sequel that features Lorraine Gary's comeback. In fact, I have to Sea World in Orlando, Florida.

The best of Jack and the Beanstalk
20 November 2018
Warning: Spoilers
This is my favorite version of Jack and the Beanstalk. I remember watching this in the fall of 1982 and how sad Jack never got to see Margaret again afer the demise of the beanstalk. The princess Margaret reminds me of one of my cousins. Plus, a lot of the music reminds me of progressive rock music like Genesis (when Jack and his dog Crosby climb the beanstalk) and the Syd Barrett era of Pink Floyd.

The Dead Pool (1988)
10/10
EXCELLENT DIRTY HARRY SEQUEL
20 November 2018
THE DEAD POOL is a must have for all DIRTY HARRY fans. First of all, CLINT EASTWOOD continues to take no prisoners in this movie. Plus, the supporting cast really make this movie entertaining. PATRICIA CLARKSON plays and ambitious news reporter covering the story on CALLAHAN'S major role in the LOU JARENO conviction, and his investigation in THE DEAD POOL deaths. Then there is LIAM NEESON who plays the head strong move director PETER SWAN who puts CALLAHAN on his DEAD POOL list which becomes real. Also, there is EVAN C. KIM who plays DIRTY HARRY'S latest partner and is also an expert in KUNG FU. Finally, there is MICHEAL CURRIE who reprises his role as CAPTAIN DONNELLY (LT. in SUDDEN IMPACT) and gets fed up with CALLAHAN'S destruction of police vehicles and JIM CARREY who plays the drug addict actor JOHNNY SQUARES. As for the scenes in this movie, my favorite is the car chase with CALLAHAN and his partner, the radio controlled explosive car, and the killer's car. However during the scene when CALLAHAN walks in on the identified killer attacking SAMANTHA WALKER, PETER SWAN should have also been there to confront him since it was someone in the past that he remembered. Overall, this movie is and excellent action movie for all CLINT EASTWOOD AND DIRTH HARRY fans. Furthermore, this is the first DIRTY HARRY movie when CLINT EASTWOOD says "marvelous" and "swell" in the same movie. "Marvelous" is from THE ENFORCER, and "swell" is from SUDDEN IMPACT.

EXCELLENT ACTION MOVIE THAT SHOULD NOT BE FORGOTTEN
20 November 2018
I enjoyed watching the actor LEIGH MCCLOSKEY in this movie about two men wanting to avenge the loss of their loved ones during a bank robbery shoot out. Without evidence to convict the robber JOE HALSEY (who owned a 1960s Ford truck), he is released and sets out on his mission to make MICK TAYLOR pay for getting his brother killed by the police. Meanwhile, MICK begins to practice his gun shooting skills with the help from his father-in-law in order to protect himself and avenge the murder of his wife. Meanwhile, a deputy named BURT persuades the woman (and childhood friend) ANGIE CORELLO to come to the police to help them convict JOE and get him out of her house. Overall, this movie is a must have for all action lovers. I got this for Christmas 2012 and glad of it. I loved this since I first saw it in 1992, the year I was graduating from high school. This and god knows how many other movies should be released on DVD. Another movie that I would like released on DVD is MY MOTHER'S SECRET LIFE, which I first saw the same year as DOUBLE REVENGE, with AMANDA WYSS & LONI ANDERSON.

Shakma (1990)
10/10
Excellent movie with Amanda Wyss
20 November 2018
I watched this after I graduated from high school 25 years ago. I hardly get to see this and others that because they neither get aired on TV nor available on DVD. Amanda Wyss from My Mother's Secret Life, Nightmare on Elm Street, & Silverado is my favorite in this movie. I have been watching this on You Tube, but decided to by this for Christmas before I do not have access to see it again. Plus, another movie with Amanda Wyss that I wish was available on DVD is My Mother's Secret Life when she plays a 16 year old who searches for her mother in San Francisco after the loss of her father.

...And Then She Was Gone (1991 TV Movie)
10/10
A Must Have for Robert Urich Fans and One of My Favorites with Brett Cullen
20 May 2018
I watched In a Stranger's Hand before Shakma on Christmas eve and enjoyed it. I remember when I first watched this on Lifetime and Shakma on either Showtime, HBO, or Cinamax after I graduated from highschool. This was the first movie that I became familiar with Brett Cullen and then was Prehysteria, Complex of Fear, and Apollo 13. Plus, I like watching Megan Gallagher and others too. The music in this movie is suspenseful and so are certain scenes. Robert Urich plays a partner in a software expert business who becomes unexpectantly involved in a search for a missing girl. The deeper involved he becomes in the search, the more truth involving the girls disappearance is explained. Overall, this is a excellent movie for those who love suspense.

Prehysteria! (1993)
10/10
This is movie favorite movie with Brett Cullen
20 May 2018
This is movie favorite movie with Brett Cullen. Plus, this dinosaur movie is a whole lot better, not to mention funnier, than the Jurassic Park movies. First of all, I love how Brett Cullen takes no prisoners towards his kids after the dinosaurs trash his home and when his rebellious daughter sneaks out of the house. I also love the 1969 Ford truck that Brett drives in this movie, along with the vintage furnishings in the house. I am so thankful that this is finally available on DVD/BLU-RAY combo. Watching this and other movies like MY MOTHER'S SECRET LIFE & SHAKMA, both with Amanda Wyss brings back a whole lot of memories.

The Hired Heart (1997 TV Movie)
10/10
One of my favorite movies with Brett Cullen
18 May 2018
This is one of my favorite movies with Brett Cullen, especially when he stands his ground with Barry Corbin & Penelope Ann Miller, who I also like watching. My favorite see is when Brett rides the same BULL that killed Penelope's husband to prove a point about dying and surviving. I am glad to see this available on DVD. Meanwhile, this is a must have for those into romance movies and so forth.

Perfect Body (1997 TV Movie)
10/10
Excellent movie with Amy Jo Johnson.
18 May 2018
I bought this for my birthday 2005 after watching parts of it on Lifetime channel. This movie inspired me to write a research paper about anorexia while I was in college. I also like watching Ray Baker & Brett Cullen. Amy Jo Johnson is an excellent actress that really shines in this movie

Fangs (2002)
10/10
OUTSTANDING HORROR/COMEDY MOVIE
18 May 2018
If you like horror movies that are not so scary or violent and have more comedy, this movie is definitely a must have. Here we have a a heard of genetically mutanted bats that escape from a university lab in SCOTTSVILLE, CALIFORNIA and fly on a blood thirsty rampage. Out to stop the bats are TRACY NELSON and the WHIPPIN' HUBLEY who get off to an extremely bad start. However, as they investigate the attacks together, they fortunately fall in love and marry. TRACY NELSON who was once a battered and murdered housewife, sister of ISSABELLA HOFMMAN who wanted justice for the death, in "THE PROMISE" is now gracefully resurrected as the fiesty local detective (also moved from LOS ANGELES) who does not tolerate "the contamination of evidence with WHATEVER!!!!!". The WHIPPIN' HUBLEY was once a F14 FIGHTER in TOP GUN with TOM CRUISE and then an elite team member led by STEPHEN SEAGAL in EXECUTIVE DECISION. Now he is the local veteranrian, part-time animal control worker, who does not tolerate being called the town "DOGCATCHER?!?!?!?!?". With extra help from the veteranian's daughter KATIE STUART and her ENGLISH boyfriend LUKAS BEHNKEN who are both documentering the attacks, can they stop these attacks before it's too late? Watch and find out. And whatever happens, don't light "A FLARE!!!!!"

My Mother's Secret Life (1984 TV Movie)
10/10
My Favorite Movie with Amanda Wyss that should be officially available on DVD
18 May 2018
This is my favorite movie with Amanda Wyss when she has the most beautiful and natural look without makeup before moving on to other movies like Nightmare on Elm Street, Silverado, & Shakma. She plays 16 year old Tobi Jensen who decides to travel from Ohio to San Francisco (the home of Dirty Harry Callahan & The Doobie Brothers) to find and meet her mother (Loni Anderson) for the first time in 13 years after her father unfortunately dies. Tobi's voice during the time she meets and gets acquainted with her mother for the first time after 13 years sounds so beautiful and soft when she is so happy about the meaningful moment. The first few minutes are my favorite part of the movie until she discovers the truth about her mother's secret life as a high priced call girl, which is when her voice begins to change when she is enraged with anger. Then it becomes sad and depressing when Tobi begins to feel unloved and unwanted by her mother who cannot commit to her responsibilities as a parent. Meanwhile, This movie should be an example of how everybody should make the right choices regarding their life. I would really love to see this classic meaningful movie become officially available on DVD, which I would unquestionably buy. I have not watched this for 20 years, and I really miss it. Overall, my heart really went out to Tobi because of all the bad luck and trauma she suffered.
