Sky High (2005)
One of the better Disney Flicks I have recently seen
It has action, drama, suspense and humor - all rolled into one. Good selection of actors, excellent plot (unknown until the end) and great scripting & direction. Who could've know that Kurt Russell could be blended into a fictitious sci-fi combination of thriller, comedy and drama? Kelly Preston stands up to her acting capabilities as a stern, yet sensitive super-mom.
I was amazed with the plot ending. Even though there are hints through the movie of what's going to happen in the end, there is no eluding as to who or how! Very good scripting and direction here also.
My vote - a must see. My recommendation is that you also see the Fantastic 4.

Sex and the Teenage Mind (2002)
Typical as a sequel attempt
This is a typical attempt to make a sequel movie to others that have rocked the box offices, such as the American Pie and Road Trip series.
The plot is stereo-typical, the acting is bad - not necessarily on any one actor's experience, but more on poor script-writing, bad editing and poor direction. There are some very accomplished actors in this movie, but unfortunately they were given sleeper roles.
In my opinion, this movie was not worth the $3.99 + tax I paid to rent it. I would have been very disappointed if I had paid theater price to see this movie (if it had a theater run even.)
If you don't mind paying to download movies from an authorized download site and viewing them on your PC or renting "sleepers" from your local Movie Rental location, then its up to you to see it. I would however, recommend viewing a movie like "Guess Who" or "The 40 Year Old Virgin" as an alternative.
