Rounders



Rounders gets two thumbs up. Great movie, but only if you like to play and watch poker. With an all-star cast including Matt Damon (The Bourne Supremacy) and Edward Norton (Fight Club and The Italian Job), this movie to me never got the attention it deserved, not many people have seen it but everyone who i know who has seen it loves it. End of story. When all is said and done, I give this movie a 10 out of 10.

Happy Gilmore



Ahh I am excited about reviewing this movie, Happy Gilmore is a really good movie, if you like Adam Sandler. If you don't appreciate Adam Sandler and his humor then stay away from it. If you did enjoy Billy Madison and 8 crazy nights, you will love this, Adam Sandler throws down some good acting that makes him look like he knows what he is doing on a golf course. But after all is said and done. I give this movie a 7 out of 10.

Constantine



Constantine is great movie. It's Keanu Reeves' best movie since Bill and Ted's excellent adventure and Bill and Ted's bogus journey. This movie an action packed thriller with all sorts of surprises and plot twists, also it's pretty impressive visually, there are some spectacular special effects. The thing about this movie that makes it interesting is that it is indeed full of religious mumbo jumbo, but they explain everything well enough and it's a good enough movie that even if you've never heard of the bible, you can still enjoy it. But after all is said and done, I give this movie a 8 out of 10.

300



300. Now I know all two of the people that read this are probably thinking to themselves "well, he is a teenage boy, he is going to say best movie ever." Well your wrong, 300 was a good adrenaline rush movie, but it lacked the necessities, such as a good plot line, i mean sure there was lots of gore and violence, which is always good, but it lacked the elements to make it a great movie. But after all is said and done, I give this movie a 7 out of 10.

Clerks 2



Clerks 2 is a follow up to the classic Clerks 1. Now unlike Clerks 1 Clerks 2 has a plot-line, which is good or bad, I'll leave that up to you, Clerks 1 was a great movie, and the second one lived up to the title. We find our two hero's working at the local Mooby's this time instead of the quick stop. And of-course all the framiliar faces are there, Donte, Randall, jay, silent bob, and even... guess who? that's right Ben Affleck. Good plot line, great jokes, and a fun time for all. But when all is said and done, i give this movie a 8 out of 10.

The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll circus



The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus, was an amazing compilation of amazing musicians, (except of course Yoko Ono.) I mean how can you go wrong with Jethro Tull, The Who, Taj Mahal, Marianne Faithfull, The Dirty Mac (John Lennon from The Beatles on vocals and guitar, Eric Clapton from Cream on guitar, Keith Richards from The Rolling Stones on the bass guitar, and Mitch Mitchell from the Jimi Hendrix Experience on drums, Yoko Ono and Ivry Gitlis (again unfortunately they joined with The Dirty Mac and ruined the whole show), and of-course The Rolling Stones? This movie was amazing i suggest everyone sees it as soon as you can. Everyone in the show performed flawlessly, my personal favorite was The Who, they were spectacular, but everyone was perfect (again except Yoko Ono). Jethro Tull performed "A Song For Jeffery" a note about this performance is that Jethro Tull is the only one for that song who played it live everyone else mimed it, The Who performed " A Quick one While He's away", Taj Mahal performed "Ain't That a lot of love", Marianne Faithfull performed "Something Better", The Dirty Mac performed The Beatles hit song "Yer Blues", Yoko Ono and Ivry Gitlis "performed" "Whole Lotta Yoko". and The Rolling Stones performed "Parachute Women, No Expectations, You can't always get what you want, Sympathy for the Devil, and Salt of the Earth." But after all is said and done, I give this movie a 8 out of 10. (Would be a 9.5 without Yoko Ono.)

Team America World Police




Team America World Police is a great movie that comes from the genius that is Trey Parker and Matt Stones (creators of South Park,) that shows the sad truth about America, and that is that it's full and can be split up into dicks, pussies, and assholes. It gives American's a view of how ridiculous we act. The movie is full of comedy and irony, the title of the movie is ironic, "Team America World Police", it's funny and entertaining, but the sad truth is there are many American's who beileive that America is the world, and that we should police it, it's tough to tell with these guys, if they meant it to be a comedy wrapped in a message, or if they were just lookin' to make fun of America. But after all is said and done, I give this movie a 7.5 out of 10.
