Radio (2003)
Radio Is The Real Deal!!!
EXCUSE ME!!! HellOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! CUBA GOODING,Jr. Should Have Won An Oscar For His Portrayal In This Film!!! He WAS the film! While the film may be lacking in some areas, Cuba was awesome... and for me, this is the best role that he has ever played! The scene in the movie where he finds out that his mother has died made me break down and cry IN THE THEATER!! I guess I could really relate to this film because I saw the same treatment of people just like that at my own school growing up... what a tragedy! Getting to see the "real" Radio and coach at the end of the movie was really special too! If you can watch this movie and not be moved to tears, you need a heart check! If you liked "Simon Birch" and "The Mighty", you'll love "Radio" too! I wish they made more movies like this...Radio is the Real Deal!
The Phantom (1996)
The Phantom is Phantabulous!
Was taking the family out to see another movie which ended up being sold out, and "settled" for "The Phantom" as an alternate! WOW!! We were TOTALLY SURPRISED, and Totally Satisfied...made us forget what we originally went to the theater to see! We liked everything about this movie!! It's a family thriller that IS movie-making the way it was meant to be! It made the comic-strip come to life! The scenery is beautiful, and the cast was great! We were wishing they would develop a TV series based on this movie...that would be soooo much fun! We are big fans of the "Young Indiana Jones Chronicles" TV series, and was VERY disappointed when it got canceled!(Thankfully they released some of those on video...we have them all!) A "Phantom" TV series would also have rated at the Top with us! We own "The Phantom" on video, and have nearly worn it out! It's great family entertainment...and as we say down here in Houston, Texas....PHANTABULOUS!
The Shadow (1994)
Shadow Supremacy!
THE SHADOW AS IT OUGHT TO BE!! I liked reading the comic strips/books of "The Shadow" as a child, but I always thought that the old serial episodes were really "cornball"! This movie resurrected my interest and made the comic strips come to life! As I watched this movie in the theater, I thought, "Now this is how 'The Shadow' lived in my mind as a child!" Alec Baldwin was great, as was the rest of the cast, and in it's day, the visual effects were pretty awesome! I never tire of seeing this film...own it on video, and it has thrilled my family time and again on "family night" around the tube! If you're a Indiana Jones fan, you will definitely enjoy "The Shadow"! Get you a copy of this film, pop-up some popcorn, get you an ice-cold drink, and settle in for a good-old time at the movies!
