Disaster Movie (Unrated Widescreen)
$19.98
Ok, the movie title sums pretty much of the movie up. It's a disaster. I thought it'll be like the "Scary Movie" series but its just garbage. It's so beyond cheesy and lame, there is no word to describe the movie. The casting is horrible, the effects are horrible. Its just one thing after another. I went movie shopping at Wal-Mart, and this was a movie I got. It happened to be $20.00, but in all honesty, its not even worth 20 cents! I threw it away just like I did when I got "Kids in America" starring another washed up druggie: Nicole Richie.

The Simpsons Movie (Full Screen Edition)
$19.98
This might be the funniest movie i have ever seen. This movie has dumb people, guns, cops, homer, bart, and the famous spider pig(harry plopper). This movie is so funny, you will be on the floor in about 20 minuets into the movie. My favorite part is when bart goes to krusty's on his scateboard, NAKED. i freackin laughed my head off. you will love to add this movie to your simpson collection, and your movie collection. Anybody who buys this movie, will love it.

The Proposal (Single Disc Widescreen)
$29.99
Well, Sandra Bullock is a favorite of mine, though I've been very disappointed by many of her films. It's not always her, it's the scripts. My favorites being Two Weeks Notice, The Net, and The Thing Called Love, in which she wasn't the star, but the film was pretty good.

But this, this was about the most boring movie I ever saw. I kept fast forwarding it, hoping it would get better or thinking about turning it off, and finally it came to and end. Thank goodness. I put it back in the little box and slipped it down below in the cupboard with other movies I didn't like, hated or some boring re-runs.

The plot is ridiculous, made no sense. The characters were ridiculous and made no sense. In fact, the whole movie made no sense. You've probably read the plot somewhere, so I won't bother to run through it, but unless you love bad farce, don't buy it.

And PS. I don't consider this a romantic comedy.

Sex and the City - The Movie (Full Screen Edition)

"The moral of the story is, If you try to pollute the New York Public Library with your frou-frou, something terrible will happen." - Jessica Zafra

Bad or good, if you are a fan of the series - you just have to see the movie. And fortunately, this movie spin-off doesn't end up totally badly. What can we expect, anyway, from a big franchise such as this? Product placements all over, no less, like it's the designer names' and Vogue's field day. Three years after the series finale, somebody has got to make up for an update in today's couture via our four beloved girls. In an over-the-top-it's-almost-in-bad-taste way, that is. Honestly, during the first half of the movie, I was ready to walk out if I saw another Pucci-whatever print dress, pair of oversized hoop earrings or ankle boots. If these girls have enough money to wear labels, couldn't they have bought something appropriate yet equally fabulous for the trip to Mexico? I am very disappointed in that red dress Miranda wore... I mean, to a resort, dear? I thought the character was much more sensible than that.

My version of the Jessica Zafra moral lesson is - "make your wedding day all about the dress, and you bring it upon yourself if that's all you stand next to at the altar." I'm not going to lecture about materialism because this movie is obviously not about moral lessons anyway, but it's just that the first half reminded me a lot about why I never liked Carrie Bradshaw in the series until she got her karma in Berger. When she took off her glasses in front of the mirror in Mexico, I wanted to say, "Girl, you should've spent as much money on anti-ageing creams as on your Manolo Blahniks, 'cause I think Big got scared seeing a preview of the future."

And so as her karma unfolded, the movie, too, started to redeem itself, with its focus on relationships. The writers seemed to have gained the upper hand over merchandising department this time. The new character Louise was a fresh touch. I liked the parallelism in Carrie and Miranda's fight and the latter's relationship with Steve. And the tear-inducing scenes that make it the quintessential chick flick have totally overshadowed the predictable happy ending for every character (yes, including Javier and Anthony) in the movie.

Predictable, yes, but it is what we came to the theater for - to see our modern day heroines remind us about the value of friendship and forgiveness and being your own self, whether you live in the city or not.
