Latest Movie Review
Rating of
2/4
I added an extra half star for a few unintentionally hilarious scenes (in the best of which Harvey Keitel's character drunkenly sings Harry Chapin's "Taxi"!).

Thank you. I think you otherwise have excellent taste in films as well.

The book was SO much better comment
Personally, I thought the film 'The Talented Mr. Ripley' was vastly superior to the novel on which it is based.

Reply to: "Pure Crap-a worst list" Do you mean enjoyable now, or when you saw them. I saw "Last Action Hero" in the theatre-I was 16 and sure it looked good then. I remember my older brother taking me to see it and he snored the whole way through. I watched it since, and it is just bad. I do enjoy some bad movies though...who doesnt? But I have to be honest with myself and call 'em like I see 'em.

The book was SO much better comment
Everyone knows the book is always supposed to be better than the movie (though this is not always the case -- see my "better than the book" list). But this list is reserved for films that twisted the source material into something entirely different . . . and much, much worse.

Thanks. There are just three of us that develop on this site. We are working slowly towards more great features. If you have any ideas, we always like to hear them! Enjoy!
