CBS Schoolbreak Special: Big Boys Don't Cry
(1993)
Episode 4, Season 10

i guess okay
most people would watch this movie and realize it is stupid but I guess it had little plot it in. I dont want to say anything because it is really typical and just-another-one-of-those kiddy type movies about stupid second grader things but it IS a kiddy movie what can I say. I guess there was some good to this movie, they actually spent some money making the movie which I dont understand why because the writer of this film obviously was just scribbling down something someday and decided to make a film or whatever. Anyways, I guess little second graders would find this film sort of humorous but as for a guy like me, an eighth grader in middle school, films like this dont cut it. I guess three out of five stars because I found little interest in it, and oh yeah, who would have ever thought a movie that this could look so low budget? I dont know, like before the film is alright and if your looking for an alright film on a bad day, this film just might cheer you up some, if not then forget about this film... or television original movie...

Eight Days a Week
(1997)

one of the funniest films ever
I stumbled upon this film on HBO about a month ago thinking it would be a dull movie, but through about thirty minutes through the film I realized it wasn't and that it was one of the funniest films in the world. Most adults could find this humour angering and dense, but teenagers would find this movie funny, good plotted with a good storyline. And what about Keri Russell who is so hot in this film. I give this movie ten out of ten. Please watch this movie because it is good, funny, and ABSOLUTELY GREAT!!

The Substitute: Failure Is Not an Option
(2001)

bad sequel
I dont get it. We have a very good movie, with a good sequel, a fair second sequel but Substitute 4: Failure Is Not An Option is just plain stupid. The only thing good in this movie is Treat Williams because he is an awesome actor and knows his role very well. Basically this storyline is just like any other action movie, white suprimicists taking over a military base or whatever and the hero comes in to whipe the whole mess free. Like I said, Treat Williams is the only thing in this movie that actually makes this movie worth watching. Well I guess I give this movie some credit since how the acting isn't so bad... five out of ten stars.

Freeway
(1996)

Great movie with great plot
When this movie first started out I thought it was going to be some horror movie about werewolves or something since how the opening credits had the creepy music and the scary little cartoon. But when the movie started out I could tell this movie was completely different.

I realized throughout the first hour of the film that it wasn't no horror and it wasn't no mystery... it was a dramatic, crime-type film which had a strong plot and a strong reason.

But overall I give this movie a ten out of ten because you dont come across a movie that has a strange plot and is still a good movie. I also give this movie a ten-out-of-ten because the actors were great. I would definetly recommend this film to watch because it is extremely great!!!!

The Stepdaughter
(2000)

great movie
**SPOILERS** I first saw this film at the local video store simple because the front of the cover looked really creepy and cool. I watched about ten or fifteen minutes of the movie and was hooked, I couldn't take my eyes of the screen SIMPLY BECAUSE this movie is extremely suspensful.

The scenery and atmosphere of the film was really creepy, suspenful, and kept you hooked until the very end. Andrea Roth is hot also which made the atmosphere more realistic and moody.

I can still remember the whole bathroom part where (SPOILER) Susan killed her supposed mom... i never understood that part but why should I care.

The ending was one of the best endings to a movie ever but that is just what I think, there are many people who would disagree. But the overall rating that I give this movie is about a nine out of ten. Im being absolutely serious, this movie is really great and should be watched serious by yourself I think. But whatever you want. I would definetly see this movie if I were you because it is GREAT!!

But I'm a Cheerleader
(1999)

great "homosexual" film
I saw this movie like three days ago and through it was great. I mean, how many times do you come across a love story dealing with lesbians. At the beginning of this movie you would probobly think it is stupid and you shouldn't be watching a movie this stupid. But if you keep watching then you will realize this movie is great.

This movie is incredibly hilarious. I could not stop laughing through this whole movie. The atmosphere for this movie was really great and helped you realize that this movie is more serious than a comedy. Yes of course this movie is so hilarious you cant quite laughing but there is an important and serious moral to the film.

When this movie went off I was alittle angry because it wasn't the ending I was expecting but it was still great. And oh yeah (possible spoiler? ahead) and the sex scene between the two girls was amazing HAHA, never seen anything so intimate...HAHAHA!!

For the overall rating of this film I guess I would give it an eight out of ten because it is hilarious and funny but it is also serious. The movie is great, impossible to put it down. If you ever stumble upon this in a movie store and you want a laugh, then get this movie. Oh yeah, you would appreciate this movie a whole lot more if you were a homosexual but that is just me talking.

They Live
(1988)

great science fiction film
This is one of the greatest science fiction films ever. Who wouldn't like Roddy Piper and some black actor kicking some alien butt. When you first watch the movie you think it will sort of be something like a drama until Nada (Piper) finds the glasses and he picks up the shotgun and starts blowing away. I really liked the (SPOILER) ending when Nada shot the transmitter and all the alien's faces could be seeable without the specially made glasses. This movie is a **** out of *****!

Killjoy
(2000)

not the best, not the worst
When I would go to rent a movie at the local video store I would come across KILLJOY (2002) but would never rent it because I knew there would be better. After about a month of just running past it, I decided to rent it. I waited until night to come and when it came I popped the video into the VCR.

When the film was over I thought: "not the best, not the worst." Most movies that I hate I just get them out of my head and never think of them again but this movie was different. It wasn't really that scary, and even though the killer clown Killjoy tried to make jokes, they werent funny.

The killer clown Killjoy's make-up was really good. His affro thing was sort of annoying but without that affro it wouldn't be KILLJOY. The teeth were really scary looking but just right. I thought that the atmosphere and scenery of Killjoy's world (or warehouse) was really great and just right for the movie.

The charactors though, should have been to acting school. They were okay, but they werent really serious about their roles. Lorenzo wasn't really as gangsterish as I thought he should have been and his two friends werent as serious as they should have been. As for Jada, she was pretty and nice but like the other actors she wasn't very serious.

The one and only thing that really bothered me about this movie was the final thirty minutes or the conclusion of the film. Through the whole film I was hoping that Killjoy would have been killed by a single person in a certain creepy way but instead (like I should have thought)the ending was gangsterish. In most horror films, the main girl usually kills the villain herself because it makes the whole atmosphere more creepy.

As for the overall rating for the film. I didn't think it was the greatest horror film, but I didn't think it was the worst. Actually, I would put this movie in my top twenty films maybe number thirteen or eleven. If you want a good film that is good and just alittle creepy, then this movie will be great. And before I end this small comment, I want to add that this movie had really scary music and sounds. -James

Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part VI
(1986)

the best in the sequence
This film was the best in the sequence... no doubt. Unlike the other sequels this one had a scary atmosphere, great scenery (and to me, it should have been the first one)and a pretty good hero. I rate this movie ********* out of **********

Joe Dirt
(2001)

possible one of my favorite comedy films
David Spade. I really dont like his movies until I saw this movie. I mean, what could be better than David Spade playing a classical-hard rock punk who is trying to find his parents. And I couldnt quit laughing and when the movie was over... i didn't want it to stop because it was so great..... TEN OUT OF TEN!!!!

Tales from the Darkside: The Movie
(1990)

very entertaining
I seen this movie a while back and I still cannot get it out of my mind. I mean, I only watched the second and third story and hey, they were so entertaining I was actually mad when the program went off because I wanted to see more horror stories and oh yea... the second story was really cool. Nine out of Ten!!

The Night Flier
(1997)

One Of The Best... The Bottom Line
This movie was absolutely great. Of course it had some bad clips but overall, the scenery, plot, and charactors were far out the best. The ending was really strange and hard to understand but you got to love it. Oh yeah, and check out the villians face... some freaky stuff... nine out of ten!!!

The Lawnmower Man
(1992)

good movie
This movie was great. Thats the bottom line. This movie had some really great special effects and a really great storyline. I also liked the actors that played in this movie... Pierce Brosnan, Jeff Fahey, in a SCI-FI movie... that is awesome. I give this movie a nine out of ten!!

Fright Night Part 2
(1988)

isnt that bad
This movie was pretty good even though it compared nothing to the original because the original is the one of my favorite horror movies ever. I guess you could say that this movie had better special effects and an okay storyline... but the villains of this movie were really stupid and didn't really make any sense... but what about Roddy McDowell, is he great or what... out of ten, i give this movie an eight!!!

Fright Night
(1985)

my favorite vampire movies of all time
This is my favorite vampire movie of all time. It has really great special effects, the best storyline of any vampire movie I have ever seen, and the greatest actors... i give this movie a ten out of ten because this movie is one hundred percent great!!! PLEASE WATCH THIS... YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MISSING!!!!!

Beyond the Mat
(1999)

very great movie
I admit that at the beginning of this movie you get kind of bored and it makes you want to turn the channel... but if you watch it for more than about fourty five minutes then you will find out that you cannot take your eyes of the screen. Out of ten, I give this movie a nine!

The Crow: Salvation
(2000)

good
Most of the time you'll rent the 2nd sequel and think that it will be stupid and dull like most other... but this movie was really good, not better than the first one, but really good. I give this movie a seven out of ten!!!

Uncle Sam
(1996)

not the worst, but not the best
I love horror movies... my favorite genre in movies. And if you like horror movies your gonna rent or buy them regardless... I stumbled upon this one at the local movie store and rented it. Got home, watched it, and was surprised. The acting was cheesy, the storyline wasn't good, but the scenery was unforgettible. I give this movie a four out of ten. I have to say, this movie is not the worst, but not the best.

The Crow: City of Angels
(1996)

dont buy or rent this bad sequel
This movie is one of the worst movie sequels ever. It had really bad acting, lame storyline that seemed like the first one's. Speaking of the first one, watch it because it is a really great classic. Please dont get this movie because it really did suck... one out of ten...

Return of the Living Dead III
(1993)

very good movie
I haven't seen the first two films but I watched this one one year ago and I have to admit that it is a good movie. Now from what I hear about the first two ROTLD movies, this doesn't sound like it was really a sequel but who gives a crap... this movie was great with good special FX and a good cast. I give this movie a nine out of ten !

Little Darlings
(1980)

truly an eighties teen romance
Good movie. Even though you could tell it was truly an eighties due to the poor acting. Two days ago I was surfing through the channels and stumbled upon this film. It is a good teen romance, and every since I watched it I cant seem to get it out of my head... one of my favorite teen romance flicks... i give this movie a ten out of ten!!!

The Evil Dead
(1981)

absolutely a great horror flick
this movie was absolutely great... and it actually scared me. Other than the dull acting and the really bad special effects, this movie had some of the scariest scenes ever... out of one hundred, I give this movie a perfect 99 !

Road Trip
(2000)

the greatest movie of all time
this movie is simply the best due to it's excellent actors, scenes, storyline, and the uncontrollable humor. most people would look at this movie as foolish, but it isn't. I rank this movie from a scale from one to ten, a hundred... oh yeah, check out amy smart half naked !!!

Terror Tract
(2000)

not that scary, but definetly entertaining
my friend was looking in the movie place one day and stumbled upon this film and thought it would be good and scary... so he bought it. While watching this movie, i realized that the actors in this film were excellent. Also, the film wasn't very scary but definetly entertaining. I give this movie a ******* out of ********** !!!

Bloodsport III
(1996)

no point in this film
when i watched the first two bloodsport films i thought that they were pretty good (especially the first film). and then when they made a third one i immedietly rented it at the local movie store and was dissapointed in how stupid this film was. the action seens werent too bad, but the storyline was completely messed... if you ask me, there was no point in making this film. I rank it a *** out of **********.
