Video Rental Suggestions II: The Good and The Bad Choices
 
Last week, I rented "Just Married". I HATED it. :mad:

"National Security" was okay.

I'm looking forward to "10 Ways to Lose a Guy" (I think that's the title) and "Kangaroo Jack? :o

I recently rented "Runteldat" and didn't get past the first twenty minutes.

"The Wash" was also horrible. HORRIBLE!!!

Definitely rent "The Recruit"; that was hot.

"Die Another Day" was also hot, although seeing Halle Berry sex Pierce Brosnan made me feel uncomfortable.

"Old School" is hilarious.

I couldn't think of the other one I had rented. It was Die Another Day. It WAS good!

I may check out Old School after the holiday weekend. I think there will be a sequel to Old School.

My recent rentals:

"The Ring": It was...good, I guess. It was just a little bit wacky at times. I didn't think that it would be what it was.

"Paid in Full": This was better than I expected. The only thing about it that I didn't like was Cam'Ron. He was anoying in the film. I wish that Dame would have played a bigger part because he was hilarious in "State Property."

I bought "Deliver Us From Eva" and it was not as good as I expected. It was good, but there were some annoying parts. I mean, who do you know that is going to reject sex from her HUSBAND to study, only because her sister said so? Some parts were funny, though. And DAMN!! LL is TOO fine!

I was definitely dissapointed with "The Ring". I heard it was supposed to be one of the scariest movies ever, but it really just made no sense. It started off kind of spooky and then steadily got kind of wack.

Met him in person at the airport in Atlanta - we were all trying to find our gate - was with hubby and then 2-year old daughter, but DANG! was he yummy-looking! Even finer in person and up close! And he's a pretty big guy too.

Did I mention that he looked yummy? :D

Was this in late April? On a Friday? My chapter soror was returning home to Georgia and she called to say she saw him in the airport. She didn't have her camera directly on her, she had packed it in her suitcase.

Needless to say, she was soooo excited. I was excited for her! :D


um, um, um I can't wait until next week.

Sorry Soror 2D, this was several years ago. But how I remember those lips, those broad shoulders. . .

Sorry - I digressed.

I'm glad that I don't really have to rent videos with my $$ b/c on my job, the kids get to rent new videos every 2 weeks. So any PG or PG-13 movie (they can't rent R at all) that I haven't seen, I get to watch. Recently, the kids have been watching videos that I already have at home on DVD.

Once, though, someone rented Inventing the Abbots. It was a pretty good movie. So was Sweet Home Alabama.

About The Ring....Try watching the Japanese version. Atmospherically, the American version is better and more fast paced. Creep-factor wise, though, the Japanese version wins, hands down. The scene where she crawls out the screen...*shudders* Good lord, the Japanese are brilliant. (Now, f they could just learn how to make good endings to movies I can die happy.)

N.A.R.C was not as bad as I'd heard it was. But it wasn't anything to run out for either.

Just Married was cute. I don't need to see it again though.

Deliver us from Eva was better than I expected because I thought it'd be awful. It was decent, although highly unrealistic for Black women, in my opinion.

Oh LAWD The Ring! I am a horror movie buff but this movie had me so angry when I left the theater. I sat through the whole thing waiting for the scary part to happen! It was too much going on. Save your money and wait for it to come on HBO!

I just rented Like Mike with Lil Bow Wow and the movie was not as bad as I expected. Of course it was unrealistic, but still cute and interesting.

The Recruit was a really good movie. Al Pacino is one that you can usually count on though.

movie weekend
 
So I spent one weekend watching sequals.

Analyize This and Analize That were very funny

K-PAX was a very heart touching story.

(old movie) The Hole 9 Yards very very funny
