Christopher Lloyd star in this movie based on the television series.

It's from Disney so it should be light-hearted entertainment

Patch Adams Some would say that laughter is

the best medicine, I, on the other hand, prefer expert

The Rugrats Movie A movie about Nickelodeon's

new cash cows the Rugrats. As fun as the show but as long as

which usually means, it's no good. Rated PG.

I Still Know What You Did Last Summer I still know

that this series isn't nearly as witty or scary as the Scream

Babe: Pig in the City Babe was a lot more fun on

the farm. If you are a child or an animal lover though, this

film will not disappoint. Rated G.

Virus A computer virus from space lands on a ship

and proceeds to turn humans into cyborgs. It sounds stupid

when I say it. Rated R.

Saving Private Ryan The favorite in this years

Academy Awards, this film scored 11 nominations. A great

cast, alegendary director but beware, this movie is violent. Rated R.

The Thin Red Line Another WWII movie, this

one about the horrors of war and what someone thinks

about while they are in the heat of battle. For me it would be,

"Get me out of this battle!"Rated R.

get this movie. You know what will happen from the opening

second. Rated PG-13.

does this sound so familiar? Rated R.

the fictional 50's through a magical television. It's a cute little

the Enterprise to help a pleasure planet that is being attacked.

haunted by the ghost of her child. The film was directed by
