The World is Not Enough

- Another James Bond film with Pierce Brosnan as

Bond. Brosnan is second only to Connery in my mind and

the last two films have been a lot of fun. Expect more of

the same. PG-13.

Toy Story 2 - Woody

and Buzz are back and this time it's Woody who needs

rescuing. Utterly enjoyable and possibly better than the

first one. It has a great sense of humorand is the

perfect holiday film. Rated G.

Also

Playing

Big Daddy - Adam

Sandler comedy about a slacker who adopts a little boy to

win his girlfriend back. Granted this is at the dollar

theater, but you've been able to rent it for three weeks.

I'd rather view it at home, because you can fast forward

through all of the sap. Rated PG-13.

Deep Blue Sea -

Scientists experiment with sharks and deal with the

consequences on the next Ricki Lake. Rated R.

Drive Me Crazy - The

world loves the girl who plays Sabrina (Melissa Joan

Hart), let's put her in an awful teen comedy that is made

of recycled teen movie cliche's. Rated PG-13.

For Love of the Game -

If there's one thing that Kevin Costner does well, it's a

baseball movie. This one is directed by Sam Raimi, a

former wildman director known for the Evil Dead trilogy.

He has toned down of late and become a seriously

ambitious, yet still daring director. Rated PG-13

Inspector Gadget - It

looked better than it really was, but it is fun for the

whole family. Technically, you shouldn't ever see Claw's

face, but...whatever. Rated PG.

In Too Deep - This is

a film about undercover cops and what happens when they

get too close to the truth. To be a good undercover cop,

you have to get in, but sometimes you get in too deep.

Rated R.

Mickey Blue Eyes -

Hugh Grant marries into the mob and must try to fit in

despite his intelligence, good looks and charm. Rated

PG-13.

Mystery, Alaska - This

looked like a fun film. An Alaskan hockey team gets a

chance to play the New York Rangers in an outdoor match.

The ragtag group of Alaskans must come together to defeat

the professionals. The film was penned by David E. Kelley

(Ally McBeal), so expect lots of sex and Al Green. Rated

R.

Runaway Bride - There

was so much hype about Richard Gere and Julia Roberts

teaming up again that you thought Sonny and Cher were

reuniting. This opened to warm reviews this summer, but

it didn't clean up at the box office. If you think you'll

be surprised and entertained, you probably will. Rated

PG.

Teaching Mrs. Tingle -

Students get revenge on a teacher that frames them for

cheating. It probably has the usual sparkling Kevin

Williamson dialogue but it doesn't look like anybody is

having any fun. Rated PG-13.

The Iron Giant - An

animated film that pays tribute to the classic Warner

Brothers animation. Your kids should enjoy it and so

should you. Rated PG.

The

Thirteenth Warrior - Just a fun action movie from

John McTiernan (Die Hard). The film is about a peaceful

man, forced to battle some supernatural folk that have a

taste for the living. Hint: The film was originally

called Eaters of the Dead. If you like bloody battles and

swashbuckling adventures, check it out. Rated R.
