D.C. Cab
(1983)

Could've been better but surprisingly very entertaining.
This is one of those movies that you shouldn't dig deep in. This movie is ridiculous,stupid, and crazy but it's actually not bad.Basically this is about a young Albert Hockenberry who wants to be in the DC Cab company business which is owned by his deceased father's old friend.The company is on the verge of getting shut down because of their competition with the Emerald Cab company. Albert tries to be part of the business but things doesn't go the way he expects.He deals with a stubborn Tyrone along with other cab drivers who lack motivation and are only in it for the money. The cab drivers get into a lot of difficult situations and hilarious mishaps. The plot makes sense overall, the only confusing part was the kidnapping of Albert and the two rich kids.I thought it was pretty random. I admit, it brought down the movie but the actors saved it by taking a ridiculous twist and make it look so much better on screen. I give it an 8 out of 10 because it cracked me up and kept my attention. I know a lot of people might disagree because this film is not for everyone. If you're not too picky about movie plots and just want a laugh, you might like this as much as I do.

16 Wishes
(2010)

Funny and fun movie... but familiar story line **Spoilers**
I saw 16 wishes without any expectations. It was just a typical day for me to watch random movies that were on. I started watching and on the beginning, it was kinda cheesy. The main girl basically wants what all the average teenage girls do - Privacy,popularity,being independent. etc. This movie was not very creative. The story line is just too familiar. I can't even mention how many more movies have the similar plot- almost exact actually. The scenarios always goes like this- The character wants something more and or something to change in their life. They get a chance to make a wish whether from a fairy or genie etc. It goes all perfect then something goes terribly wrong.. Then they realize they want their old life back. In the end, they basically appreciate everything they originally had. This movie was funny and enjoyable though. The acting was good except for the main girl's parents. I give this movie 6 stars for some really good acting and a funny plot.This is a pretty good film, but not if you're in a mood for something unpredictable and realistic.
