I'm sure alot of you remember T.V commercials from the '80s featuring Jim Varney as Ernest P. Worrell. In this film,you get to see over 100 of these plus about 10 minutes of bloopers. Some are funny,and some are not. It just depends on how big of fan you are of Varney's sometimes irritating,but most of the time loveable character.

This third entry in the exciting Indiana Jones series is a slight improvement over the last installment,The Temple of Doom. What makes this one a winner is the superb teamwork of Connery and Ford. They work wonderfully together. Another thing is Spielbergs direction. You can really tell that he adores this series and that he puts everything he's got into it to make it a big,entertaining,thrill-ride. This installment involves Indiana Jones and his clutzy father in a race to beat the Nazis to The Holy Grail. A good story,and lots of entertainment makes this the second best of the series. Spielberg made a winner out of this one,but no action movie will ever surpass the original Indiana Jones film,Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Rating ****1/2 out of ***** stars

This prequel to the far more superior Raiders of the Lost Ark is definately the worst of the trilogy,but that doesn't make it a bad movie. There is enough entertainment and excitment in this film to delight any action fan. The thing that hurt this film so much is the so-so plot which involves our hero Indiana Jones taking on an evil cult to save a village located in India.

Capshaw and Quan give good performances,which helps the movie stay healthy. I still say that there is no one else who could fit into the character of Indiana Jones as good as Harrison Ford. He is great.

Entertainment,excitment,and good acting is what makes this film a winner. If only they had worked a little bit more on the story.

This is overall a pretty good follow up to the original Rocky. Good performances(esp. by Burgess Meredith),and the exciting bout is what makes this film a good piece of enjoyment. The training scenes are entertaining and the fight is the best match I have ever seen in a movie. The only thing that hurts this film is Stallone's so-so plot. It's okay at first, but some people could easily lose interest in the film after about the first 45 minutes or so.

Rocky,after the original fight, promises that he'll retire and never fight again. Him and Adrian get married,and Rocky decides that he is going to do commercials for a living. After that fails,Adrian returns to her old job part time to make money. Rocky decides that fighting is the only way they'll get back on there feet but Adrian disagrees and tells him they'll get buy some how or other. Meanwhile,Rocky goes to work for his former trainer Mickey (Meredith)to make a few bucks and to just be around the world of Boxing because he misses it so much.

Apollo Creed,aggravated with Balboa since the last fight,decides he's going to have to embarasses and anger Balboa to try to get him to agree to a rematch. It finally works, and Rocky starts preparing for the fight of his life.

If you like boxing, this is the movie to watch,the fight scene is so well directed and choreographed. You cannot help but cheer for Rocky when he holds up the Heavy Weight Belt and says "Adrian,I did it!", I guarantee it.

Raiders of the Lost Ark is definately one of the best movies I have ever seen, a real crowd pleaser. Harrison Ford plays Indiana Jones, an archeologist/adventurer who sets out to save one of the worlds most famous artifacts, The Ark of the Covenant. There is enough entertainment in this movie to keep one's attention for hours. Great direction by Steven Spielberg.This film should have won oscars for best picture and director.

A major improvment over Star Trek:The Motion Picture,this sequel shows us what Star Trek is all about. It has enough entertainment and excitement for all trekies and people who are not fans of the original series. Kahn(who was featured in the original series episode Space Seed)is the perfect vilian. He's a real threat for Kirk,and will do anything to get back at him for leaving him marooned for all eternity on the center of a dead planet,I mean anything. I could talk to you about this film all day but to keep it short,watch this film,you'll won't regret it. This is a read treat for everyone.

Star Trek 5 is definitely one of my least favorites of the series. The special effects were horrible and William Shatner cannot direct films. He has proved this before.The aliens in this movie are strange and just plain stupid. The worst part about this film is probably the campfire scene where Dr.Mcoy,Captain Kirk and Spock sing Row Row Row Your Boat. Its the awfullest singing youll ever here. However, if it wasnt for the performances by the main characters,this movie would probably be a total disaster. Lawrence Luckinbill turns in a fine performance as Sybok.Trust me,only watch this film if you're a very big trekkie,I mean very big.
