Mickey Blue Eyes -
Hugh Grant plays the charming Brit who is marrying into
the mob. He'll smile lots and make the women swoon. Rated
PG-13.
Universal Soldier 2 -
Jean Claude Van Damme battles a new breed of Universal
Soldiers (including the WCW's Goldberg). Gee, I wonder if
he'll win? Rated R.
Pick
of the Week
Bowfinger - A soon to
be classic. Steve Martin plays a terrible director (think
Ed Wood) who makes his crew's Hollywood dreams come true.
The laughs keep coming and Eddie Murphy is brilliant in a
dual role. Rated PG-13.
Now
Playing
American Pie - I
wonder if my past encounters would be that funny on the
screen. It would certainly be a longer movie. Rated R.
The Blair Witch Project
-An innovative horror film that packs quite a punch.
Rated R.
Brokedown Palace - Two
girls get arrested in the Orient when drugs are found on
them. It was planted there and it's up to Bill Pullman to
try and get them out. Rated R.
Deep Blue Sea - Think
Jurassic Shark. A cure for Alzheimer's lies with sharks,
but these sharks have had their intelligence enhanced and
a smart shark is a dangerous one. Rated PG-13.
Detroit Rock City -
Last week I called this movie "Rock N Roll All
Night" by accident. I wonder if it even
matters.Rated R.
Dick - A comedy about
two girls who get involved with the Nixon White House
during the Watergate Scandal. Twenty years from now it
will be Bill, except it will be rated NC-17. Rated PG-13.
The General's Daughter
- John Travolta plays an investigator looking into
the murder of ...the general's daughter. Lots of suspense
and drama, just try to not think, "Barbarino".
Rated R.
The Haunting - This
remake boasts new effects and a talented cast,but it is
boring with tons of gaps. It is heavy with lameness.
Rated PG-13.
Inspector Gadget - One
of America's favorite cartoon detectives gets a live
action movie. Matthew Broderick stars as the bumblingly
brilliant Gadget. Rated PG.
The Iron Giant -
Classic looking cartoon about a young boy and a giant
friend from outer space. It looks very good. Rated G.
Mystery Men - Here's
the review from my friend Kurt - When it's funny,
it's real funny, but when it's dull, it's real dull. Not
all bad, but not all that. Rated PG-13.
The Sixth Sense - This
is an incredible movie with one of the best endings in
recent history. It is well acted, masterfully directed
and ultra creepy without being ultra-blatant. Rated
PG-13. Star Wars: The Phantom Menace - So, it's not
the second coming. This is a great movie with effects
that mess with your mind long after. It is a perfect
beginning to the story and the performances are great.
Rated PG.
Tarzan - Disney didn't
make a lot of noise about this movie, but it makes as big
a splash as the best of them. It has a good story, nice
songs, and incredible visuals. Rated G.
The Thomas Crown Affair
- Brosnan takes a break from being Bond by being a
burglar (a really good burglar). This is a remake and it
is getting good reviews. Rated R.
Wild, Wild West - A
critical flop, this underachieving film was a hit with
the masses, at least for one week. Rated PG-13.
The Wood - A
comedy/drama about four young men growing up in The Wood.
I haven't heard much either way. Rated R.
Also
Playing
Austin Powers 2 - I
found this to be funnier than the original. Mike Myers is
at home playing wacky characters and the Austin Powers
series is like the 90's version of The Pink Panther.
Rated PG-13.
Entrapment - Sean
Connery is a burglar and Catherine Zeta Jones is a cop.
