Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior - Much better than the first one. A little history behind the story. Better overall story and we get to see more of a hero. Bigger explosions, better driving, all around, just more fun. Skip the first movie and move right into the second. You won't miss any of the story.

The Returner - Girl from the future goes back in time to stop an alien invasion of earth. Meets up with kick ass assassin like guy and they proceed to save humanity. Pretty good story, a little slow but the action COMPLETELY makes up for it. Great fight sequences.

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - Continuation of the first one of course. New enemy and good story. I didn't like Laurence Fishburne as the voice of the surfer but otherwise it was a decent flick. Wait for this one on DVD.

Reign Over Me - Great, Great, Great movie. Follows a dentist (Don Cheadle) who runs into an old friend from college (Adam Sandler). Sandlers character lost his family in 9/11 and refuses to deal with the fact anything ever happened in his life before that day. This is a must see and purchase!

Georgia Rule - So the synopsis makes this sound like a nice family movie about 3 generations of screwed up women. Sound weird, you don't know the half. It is an attempt at being funny 40% of the time and the rest is seriously messed up. This family has a real problem that is no laughing matter. Mixing the two is such a stupid combination that it ruins the movie. AVOID!!!

Live Free or Die Hard - Finally I got to see it! Holy crap it blew me away. The story was good, the action was awesome, I can't say enough about how true they were to the Die hard series. Go see it, it is worth it in the theater!

Shooter - Mark Wahlberg plays a sniper. Well basically that is it. He is set up to look like he has killed an important figure in government and must clear his name and take revenge. Entertaining enough, I found it to be somewhat similar to the Bourne movies in a couple ways. Check it out at your local video store.

Driving Lessons - Stars Julie Walters and Rupert Grint. An old actress hires a young kid to help her around the house, they soon become good friends. Very very funny and enjoyable movie. This is a purchase. Funny thing is that the two leads (if you didn't recognize the names) are Mrs Weasley and Ron Weasley of the Harry Potter series. I think their prior chemistry really helps with this movie. Also Laura Linney is a scary mom.
