The Librarian: Quest for the Spear (2004)
I would watch a series based on this
Poss spoilers***********
I found this very entertaining and worth the watch. In comparison to the normal made for TV movies this movie rocks! It was much more fun than the promos let on. An adventure movie with a drop of romantic comedy and some great sub-level jokes. It works on multiple levels. TNT's second airing is on now in the background. I left it on because I like the ambiance while I surf. My kids liked it. I liked it.
If TNT did a series I would watch it, If the next movie in this series was theatrical I would go see it and I will Likely buy any related DVD that gets released.
A nerd hero...I like it I'd like to know what the library is a search on google for metropolitan library says its in Ohio? Anyone know any details?
Three Fugitives (1989)
Perfect for a jovial mood
If you're that "god, I'm a serious movie rater and this better impress me" kind of movie watcher then go find another. But If you are in the mood to laugh and think odd pairs are funny then go for it. It helps to know the history of Martin Short's style of comedy. Nick Nolte's a pretty big guy and Sarah Doroff is really little. So Nolte just got outa prison and is supposed to be this big bad bank robber with a reputation. Martin Short is this nervous jobless dad that robs a bank just as Nick Nolte is there and takes Martin takes 'Nick' as a hostage.
Nick gets SHOT! Martin has a senile old friend that takes care of Rover(Nick). James Earl Jones does a belly-laugh. Sarah overcomes her trama to change gender. Martin Changes Gender! There's a Happy Ending Such a sweet movie- after its over put A Nightmare on Elm Street in for the contrast!
Underworld (2003)
Previews were better
I bought this before I saw it. I based my purchase decision on the previews and specials I had watched during it's promotional period. My mistake. I liked the idea of the story but when I watched it I was disappointed because I had already seen most of what would have been the best parts. I have no connections with either side and the back story is vague.
The movie failed to lock my gaze. I found myself looking and interacting with other things while it was playing 1st run. I even let it play while I raided the fridge. Not much replay either, I've had it since it came out and i've only played it 2-3 times. By comparison: I have played the mummy and jp1,2&3 monthly. Perhaps the prequel/sequel will be better- I've held off on vanhelsing so I don't make the same mistake- VanHelsing may go well with this...I'm hesitant tho!
Reign of Fire (2002)
I just returned from the theater
Maybe I should have waited for the dvd. When will there be a dragon movie that is about dragons? What dragons I saw, were good graphics, too bad the movie was detached. Too many unanswered ?s. Too much crap in the middle. Not enough dragon society depicted. My advice, see what the dvd has. Don't waste your money. Rent it.
