It Takes Two (1995)
great movie.....olsen twins at their finest
10 May 2004
This is such a great movie for kids and adults! The cast is great, including Kirstie Alley, the nice but tough cookie women who works at the adoption agency. Steve Guttenberg, the nice rich father who is engaged to Clarise Kensington (Jane Sibbett), the woman you love to hate. Ashley Olsen plays Alyssa Callaway, daughter of Roger Callaway (Steve Guttenberg) and a very polite and lovely young lady. Mary-Kate Olsen plays Amanda Lemmon an orphan that goes to the camp Roger's late wife and Alyssa's mother built years ago. She is also very close with Diane Barrows (Kirstie Alley). When the two girls meet unexpectidly they decide to switch places so tough girl Amanda can get rid of Clarise, and smart and witty Alyssa can get rid of the ButtKisses, the odd family who wants to adopt Amanda. The girls try to succeed in getting Diane and Roger together before his marraige to Clarise, and get Diane and Roger to adopt Amanda before the ButtKisses can. Philip Bosco also stars as Vincenzo, the loveable sweet butler of the Calaway's who always gives Alyssa a lot of slack and benifit of the doubt when it comes to her little silly escapades. All and all this is a great movie for everyone to enjoy. Great Cast, Great Movie, and the Olsen Twins at their best. 9-10/10!

Mean Girls (2004)
really good movie....*~*SPOILERS*~*
4 May 2004
Warning: Spoilers
I really enjoyed this movie. I thought it was fun, and the cast was great. Things really ended the way you wanted them to and you left very pleased. Lindsay Lohan plays Cady Heron, the new girl at school who was homeschooled all her life while living in africa. Everyone makes fun and ignores her until she meets Janis and Damien, two pretty much rejects who help her get going at school. When Regina the head of the plastics popular group asks Cady to hang out with them, Janis tells Cady to spy on them and tell her everything they say. Things start to go down hill when Cady ends up hurting her real friends feelings and goes to war with Regina for the attention of a cute boy. Cady realizes who her true friends are when everyone starts to backstab each other. All in all I would give this a 9/10. It was really good. And again the cast was great. I urge everyone to see this. There really is something for everyone. ENJOY!

Pepper Ann (1997–2000)
Cute show.......considering some other crumby cartoons that were around during that time......
16 April 2004
I really think this was a cute show, the animation was good, and it was pretty original. Pepper ann was a regular 7th grade girl going through life's ups and downs with her best friends, the perfect nicki little, and the original artist milo kamalani......along with them there was lydia, Pepper ann's single working mother, pepper ann's sister Moose *margaret* who sounded and acted like a boy and fooled many until we realized what she was. Then there was aunt janie the hippie cool aunt and her husband jojo, the all around good guy cop. There was also pepper ann's father who you never saw much of and had an accent that you really could never figure out where he was from... and of course there were grandma and grandpa, the old fashioned yet fun grandparents of the girls, all together it really was a fun show if you were into that kind of thing, considering other crumby cartoons that were around then, Pepper Ann and Recess really weren't half bad. Definitley worth a look!

Really cute followup...to a really cute show
15 April 2004
I always thought Recess was a really cute show, It was enjoyable and you could actually sit through a half hour or an hour of it, unlike other shows.Was the show realistic or ethical? Of course not, Did anyone really expect it to be? But it really was still cute. The characters were cute and I thought the animation was very well done. This movie was cute as well, the show was better, but not much, all in all it's worth a look if you enjoyed the show, Is it worth buying? That's up to you. Just keep in mind if you never cared for the show, you probably won't like this much either. It is a cute followup to the original, and is worth a look for fans of the show!

The Magic School Bus (1994–1997)
not my thing at all......
6 April 2004
i don't know, this really just wasn't my thing.....most educational children's shows like sesame street and barney I felt taught more, this lost my attention in the half hour when I could be glued to the screen with Sesame Street for an hour. It would also always end with the annoying ms. frizzle ending with a cheezy line at the end... such as "i always say......" I don't know, I'm sure it was a good show for some but it just wasn't my thing. I think it would be unfair for me to say something really really bad because it was educational and I'm sure did teach something. I encourage everyone to try it but not expecting greatness, but to expect something that could not be your thing.

Hope & Faith (2003–2006)
Great Show For Women.....Really Cute!!
13 February 2004
This is a really cute show that I like a lot! It is very funny and is similar to Life with Bonnie. I can see the station that plays both these shows getting a lot of viewers. This show may look a little stupid or goofy at times and being totally truthful I never had intentions to watch it. There was really nothing else on tv and I like Kelly Ripa and Faith Ford so I thought I would give it a shot. To my surprise it was a very cute and easy to follow show. I recommend this mostly to women but everyone should really give it a shot. Really Cute! I give it 4 out of 5 stars.

Life with Bonnie (2002–2004)
Really Great Show! A+!
13 February 2004
I really like this show! The actors, plot, and the actual acting, is wonderful! This show focuses on Bonnie, a wife, mother of 3 and television talk show personality. This show focuses on Bonnie and her husband trying to juggle the kids, their jobs and still finding time for themselves. This show is very life like and very very funny! I enjoy it very much and the cute little neighbor Franky who never leaves helps it as well. The kids also act well for their ages! I recommend this show mostly to women but kids would like it too. In the end this show is great! 5 out of 5 stars! Highly Recommended!

Uptown Girls (2003)
Really Great.....
26 January 2004
This is a really great movie. It could be a little sappy at times but is a feel good chick flick that I saw in the theater....with no regrets. Brittany Murphy does an excellent job of playing Molly....a girl who all her life got everything she wanted after her rockstar parents died and she got everything....when there is a problem with the money Molly must resort to *dare she think it* get a job. She gets a job as a nanny for a little girl that has way to much on her mind for her age. With the little girl's father being very very sick and her work-a-holic mother, she can't trust anything. Molly tries to change that. Dakota Fanning does a great job for a young actress. She is a real talent. All and all I thought this movie was really good and have even considered buying it. I give it 8 out of 10 stars.....try watching it! worth a look! enjoy!

Everybody Loves Raymond (1996–2005)
GREAT SHOW....GREAT ACTING.....GREAT EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!
26 January 2004
This show is just so great. There really isn't that much to say about it. The acting is great and everybody in the show was cast perfectly. Ray Romano as always is histerical as always. And so are his costars, Brad Garrett, Patricia Heaton, Doris Roberts and Peter Boyle. The show is really great! I think they are going to have to stop the show because they are running out of ideas before they get canceled. Everyone truly does love Raymond! 10/10 stars!

Really good!
19 January 2004
I really enjoyed this movie! I didn't really think I would, but it wasn't until my friend told me it was a good movie that I even thought of giving it a look. I didn't even think it was going to be worth money on a rental so I waited until it was on tv. I saw it on the lifetime channel and watched it out of curiosity. It was really a very good movie and held your attention. I even later purchased this movie! This is a really decent movie that I was really surprised on how good it was! I recommend this to many people and with one piece of advice, don't go into this thinking it will be horrible, have an open mind and watch the whole thing! Don't make a premature judgement from the first few minutes! Rent this now! Enjoy!

Sugar & Spice (2001)
A lot better than expected!......trust me!
18 January 2004
I din't want to see this movie at first because well the previews make it kind of obvious why I didn't want to see this. Anyway, if it was not for a friend renting this movie at a sleepover, I never would have forced myself to actually sit down and watch it. However, this was really not half bad! I actually considered buying it a few times and I might! This is a cute movie mostly made for teens but some adults will find it funny also. This is a quick paced movie that will hold your attention and is very funny! Please take my advise and rent this now! I guarentee you won't regret it. This movie is not ment to be looked at with high expectations, if you look at it like that, the movie will be horrible to you, however, if you believe this movie will stink or just be ok, you will enjoy this more than expected. Enjoy!

Halloween II (1981)
perfect examples of bad sequals....
14 December 2003
Out of all the halloween movies I have seen (5) this one and the 3rd one are the worst. They are just plain stupid....I mean come on....he follows her to the hospital....it was an excuse *and a quick one* to make a three year later sequal. Watch the first....skip the next two and then watch the fourth and the fifth ...please don't even give this a thought....I'm begging! Stay away!

1 out of 5 stars......... (if not a half of a star)

Halloween (1978)
ok at best....but....i expected better....much better
14 December 2003
This movie as an overall is ok....everybody raved about this movie so much so I thought I would take a peek....to my surprise it wasn't horrible....but it wasn't amazing either. I jumped a few times but that was about it...I found a lot of it unrealistic and stupid *especially parts of the chase scenes between Michael and Lori* This is your classic horror flick that is only good for a dark dreary night....or of course....halloween....I don't reccomend it to most to see....even though I know you will anyway. I have only seen 5 halloween movies...so who knows maybe they got better....how they got passed 5....I really don't know....worth a peak.

2 1/2 out of 5 stars.

Looks like nothing...don't be fooled...unbelievable movie!
14 November 2003
This movie may have looked like nothing in the trailers or by the cover of the box, but please, and i am begging, please, don't be fooled. This movie is a masterpiece that is bound to be a classic. I saw this when I was younger and really loved it, and since then, I have bought and continued to watch this movie. I know I will for years to come as well. This is a great movie that I even watch when it is not near christmas or halloween. The art in this, may seem nothing but stickfigures but you have been fooled. This is a fast paced movie, that does not leave you bored or unsatisfied. After the first 5 minutes you will be hooked and I guarentee that if you don't buy it, you will watch it again. I urge everyone, young and old to see this movie. This is a very creative movie and i give it 5 out of 5 stars! SEE IT ASAP!

The Wonderful World of Disney: Safety Patrol (1998)
Season 1, Episode 24
Probably the most stupid movie ever...yet they do it in a cute way
9 November 2003
This is probably the most far fetched and one of the stupidist movies i have ever seen. Yet for some reason, it caught my interest when it was priced for $3.99 at a supermarket. They were probably right when this was nothing more than a disney tv movie, but they still found a way to get it onto VHS. Anyway, the acting wasn't bad and bug hall is adorable...in a funny sort of way. And don't be fooled, Leslie Neilson has about the smallest part in this movie. Weird Al Yankovick had a small role but it was very funny. Altogether, Although this was probably one of the stupidist storylines in the world, the acting was well done and some of it was actually funny. I'd give it 2 out of 5 stars but it is worth a look, especially 4 kiddo's under 9.

Great Movie....Great Cast...A lot better than expected!
9 November 2003
This is a great movie and michael J. Fox does excellent in this role! This is the movie that marked the beginning of the career of christina vidal, although some others may not agree I thought she did great. As the little tough girl from the streets of brooklyn she does an excellent job. This movie is something I bought after seeing this on HBO and to me is a classic. This is definitley worth a look and I give it 4 1/2 to 5 out of 5 stars. One thing to know about this movie. Don't think about it. JUST WATCH!

This proves there is no such thing as a dumb blonde......
25 September 2003
I enjoyed the first Legally Blonde very much, I saw it in the theater and then bought it on dvd. It is filled with very funny jokes and storylines, yet also throws in some romance and sadness. I also saw the second one in the theater and enjoyed it. I would love to buy it. Was it as good as the first? no, rarely sequals are. I did enjoy this a lot and fully support the subject the movie is based on, no animal testing! Elle is a cool person and Reese Witherspoon is the best actress I can think of to bring that out. All the acting in this movie was great, I can't wait until it comes on video! Rent it as soon as soon as it comes out!

Freaky Friday (2003)
One Of the Best Disney Movies ever created....
25 September 2003
I can safely say that this movie is one of the best disney movies ever created....This is probably Jamie Leigh Curtis's Best role yet. As I loved the parent trap with Lindsay Lohan I can say that she was even better in this movie. The fun atmosphere of this movie, and storyline were great and hilarious. I also have to say that Chad Michael Murray could do no wrong in this movie with his amazing looks and great acting. Everyone who was involved in this movie should be commended for the amazing box office hit it was. I give it 5 stars even though the critics only gave it 3, and I urge all others to see it a.s.a.p. I have seen it twice in the theater and might go again.....I know I will be buying this flick.

Selena (1997)
An Incredible Tribute To An Incredible Singer....
25 September 2003
I was never a big fan of Selena's music, not that I thought it wasn't good, I just don't have any spanish backround or know any spanish, listening to her music seemed odd to me because I did not understand what she was saying. However....when her crossover album came out, I became a huge fan. I enjoyed her music a lot and found it catchy and easy to listen to. It also stayed with you as you were stuck singing it in your head for a while, I believe that was the point. Selena was an amazing and beautiful girl,singer and person. Her life was well lived although it was very short. All the acting was done very well and I don't think anyone else was better to play the role of her than Jennifer Lopez. Jennifer even had some of the same manerismns as Selena, and most probably didn't have to be rehearsed. I loved this movie and thought it was an excellent tribute to her. Unlike some biography movies that aren't done that well, this definitely turns that around. To anyone who loved Selena or just would like to learn about her, go rent or buy this movie. I saw it in one of my classes one day and bought it the following month. I definitley recommend this one.

in short....a sappy sad movie with a dissapointing ending
24 September 2003
Although others may have thought that this movie was amazing, i have to disagree. This movies special effects were amazing and I do believe that it could have one a large award for that, and the acting was amazingly done for what they had to work with, but the rest was just dissapointing. I saw this in the movie theater, due to somebody else wanting to see it, and I could tell you, if anything, this is maybe a rental. But unless you love to cry, or are getting it for free, i would not waste your time or money. All in all, the acting was great and so was the special effects but it was sad from just about the first 10 minutes on. I did shed a few tears, here and there, but I found myself looking at my watch half way threw. It also was incredibly too long. I would not like to see this movie again.

The Witches (1990)
Great movie for children over 5.....
24 September 2003
When I first saw this movie, I thought it was amazing. The acting was great, especially by Angelica Houston. I have heard that critics like it as well, and I can definitley see why. This movie was interesting, held your attention, and was very unique, definitley a first of it's kind. For those who say that the film was too scary or disturbing for children, I disagree, This film is just a fantasy, nothing more, and I would say that children over 5 would take the biggest intrest to it,and would understand that it was not real. If you have viewed the movie, you will see that some of it is so self explanitory that it is fake that almost all kids can see it, that is why it is called a fan-ta-sy. Children under 5 may get a little scared because they do not understand the movie, and only look at the images, which can be a little scary at times....if children of all ages love harry potter...then there is nothing different about this. This is definitley worth a look....and I reccomend it to all families, with children under 5 or even just to adults....believe me, you'll love this movie!
