Jack Bauer Tries to Save the Children
by carstairs38
Pros: Action and real time suspense
Cons: Slow to start; predictable
Thanks in large part to the writer's strike a year ago (And don't even get me started on that.  Again.), we did not get a season of TV's thriller 24 last year.  Of course, after the dismal sixth season, that wasn't necessarily a bad ...

Star Trek - Fan Collective: Q
The Rise And Fall Of "Q," Modern Trek's Most Intriguing Villain (Or Punchline).
by wlswarts
Pros: Some truly amazing episodes from the "Star Trek" franchise
Cons: Q gets dumbed down as the various series use him, No great DVD bonus features
Some things just make me laugh when I encounter them. For example, when I came across the boxed set DVD for the "Star Trek" "Fan Choice" set featuring Q, I just had to laugh. Billed as the fan-favorite episodes (by fan voting) featuring the Q entity, ...

by ladyconsumer
Pros: Terrific performances, interesting stories woven together.
Cons: Slow-paced, some themes will be disturbing to viewers.

Devil's Advocate/Insomnia
"Vanity is definitely my favorite Sin."
by thomaslifting
Pros: A powerful insight into the human spirit. 
Cons: The music did not compliment the film.       
A thought provoking story that entertains long after the film ends.  "Devil's Advocate" uses the supernatural to give us glimpse into the corruption of society.  The movie shows how much we can destroy our own lives by the greed and "Vanity " ...

Australia
Not the movie it needed to be
by anderzNew Member
Pros: Supurb cinematography
Strong cast
Surprisingly well paced
Cons: - Shallow exploration of sub-plots
- Feels abit too much like a giant advertisment
- Underdeveloped characters
It’s a bold and unusual move to name a film after an entire country. Considering that no feature length film since 1923 has been simply titled “America”, maybe there is a good reason why it’s not a common occurrence. Sure, the ...

Exploitation Cinema - Chinese Hercules/Black Dragon

Pros: I cant get enough of those old school grindhouse trailers!
Cons: The films are okay, but not outstanding.
While I may have hated what Rodriguez and Tarantino for their retro exploitation throwback film Grindhouse (50 million dollars for a exploitation film? Christ, what these two spent on catering alone could have produced three blaxploitation flicks) , I do ...

Cons: It's a little too light on the story front
Call of the Rockies (1944) Although this is technically the first movie in the Sunset Carson series, Sunset received second billing, and the top billing went to Smiley Burnette. Smiley does his typical comic sidekick shtick as he plays his best-loved ...

Book of Daniel - The Complete Series
With a Family Like This...G*d Help Him. THE BOOK OF DANIEL

Pros: Brilliant writing, stellar acting, a great drama, with great humor.
Cons: This series was murdered by the small-minded.  Perhaps the Websters are unrelentingly dysfunctional.
The Book of Daniel (2006) This most excellent series was a brief flash across the dismal intellectually stunted wasteland that is television.  It was intelligent, funny, and insightful.   It was doomed.The story ...

Paradise Road
Paradise Road to the Pit of Hell
by LRai
Pros: True story about WWII horrors in a Japanese prison camp for women and children.
Cons: Brutality against women, it's part of the true story but it's hard to watch.
I love movies about true stories so when someone recommended I see this film I was all for it. I have to tell you that it was not easy to watch this movie and I don't think I could watch it again. I thought I knew most of the history concerning WWII, ...

Okay I like Meryl Streep and I believe she can become any person she wants to become. I totally believe her when I see her in a role. I love movies that are true stories, and this one is a true story about a violin teacher in Harlem. The plot is ...

Cons: Overdone storyline, boring at times, redundant sex scenes with no purpose.
Okay, I have never seen the TV show so I wasn't going out of my way to see the movie. I am currently teaching abroad and one of my students gave me a copy to borrow. At first I wanted to give it back but the young lady told me that I would really like ...
