Woody Harrelson
 Natural Born Killers $14.98 This movie was a real letdown. Not at all as described at Wikipedia. :-( Only good point was when they decapitated Tommy Lee Jones' character. LOL Not nearly violent enough.  Transsiberian $28.98 The movie sounded interesting and Brad Anderson hasn't made a bad film yet, so we gave it a shot, and I'm here to tell you, it is better than we hoped! Woody Harrelson in real life is only about ten years older than Emily Mortimer, but onscreen you'd think they came from entire different generations. That works in the movie, sort of, but really it would have been better with almost any other actor. Everyone seems skewed a little older: Kate Mara's supposed to be playing a teenager for goodness sake, and anyone could tell she's been around the block more than once or twice. And yet so strong are the movie's powers of horrors that you just sit there and accept all its improbabilites and oddities. Be warned, there are some awful violent sights to be seen. Well, as soon I saw Thomas Kretschman's name in the credits my gorge rose, since I remembered him being so beastly to Asia Argento in those long, cruel torture scenes in her father's film THE STENDHAL SYNDROME. He may look like an angel but he's always evil inside. As for Ben Kingsley, he walks around with the offended pout he gets when in real life someone slips and forgets to address him as "Sir Ben." Okay, so the moral of this movie, like every horror movie recently (like HOSTEL or THE RUINS), seems to be, don't go to any foreign countries, people will take advantage of you. Are these antiwar allegories perhaps? Woody Harrelson seems to think so.  White Men Can't Jump $14.98 I was scanning the channels one night and "White Men Can't Jump" was on FMC. So I watched it and forgot how good of a movie it was. After it was over I decided this is one for the kids to watch since they never got the chance. Ordered it on Amazon and now it's included in Daves Playlist. Awesome!  Play it to the Bone $9.99 movie was dull only one good boxing fight really didnt care for this one if u want to watch boxing go watch rocky it makes this look like doodoo |
