The Devil You Know (2013)

Dumbest movie ever

[1/10 · 30 November 2013]

My friends and I chose this randomly from a list on pay per view. Mostly because Jennifer. Lawrence was listed in the credits. And that was Mis-leading - she was only in one flashback scene And did not have any lines. I wish that I get could my time back that I wasted watching this - and the $4.99 rental fee. Bad acting , bad editing,confusing storyline. The only good part in the entire movie is when it finally ended !

Why would Jennifer Lawrence even have ave her name attached to this is beyond me. Don't bother renting it - I would have rated it ZERO but 1 was the lowest score.

Rule Number One (2005)

Very different and kind of humorous

[9/10 · 9 January 2006]

I think that perhaps if they would have made this a full length as opposed to the short, it probably could have been better. It is unique, and has some humorous parts. I especially enjoyed the scene with Trent Gill in a tu-tu throwing whipped cream at his girl friend. He is so funny. It's worth watching just to see this! And as usual, Danielle Panabaker is great. She (in my opinion) is going to be the next Julia Roberts. She is very talented. So, if you get the chance to check out this short, it is definitely worth your time. Great concept, well done, talented actors, just wish it would have been full length. But, like I said ; check it out for your self. You won't be disappointed.

Unfabulous (2004–2007)

Gag me!

[23 February 2005]

Okay, here's a great idea...let's take another famous person's sibling that is untalented as can be (aka: Jamie ) and make a show for them too. If she wasn't related to "Auntie Julia" then she probably wouldn't even have got an audition! The sad thing is that Producers actually think that people will continue to watch this garbage just because they put some one who is related to a known star in it. Bad news! If it's bad...then it doesn't matter! I would rather watch something with a group of "un-knowns" that at least know how to act! Oh yea and by the way:(news flash) Having an attitude doesn't mean someone CAN ACT!!! I know, let's make a show with all of Demi Moore's girl in it!

Who's Your Daddy? (2002 Video)

Not quite sure...

[21 February 2005]

This movie leaves me feeling angry that I wasted my time watching it. A group of five began watching it, but by the end...I was the only one left. I only kept watching it because I paid for the rental. I truly felt like they were trying to do another "American Pie" or something but the humor just wasn't quite there. It was more "raunchy" than anything. I think a lot of it was the story line...but also there was some poor casting choices. The ending was also not really a good choice and leaves the audience feeling disappointed.I would NOT recommend this flick to anyone.I rate it one. Only because there was no zero available.

Mean Creek (2004)

Boring...

[2/10 · 21 February 2005]

I almost fell asleep it was so boring and predictable. It was basically a "rip-off" of 'STAND BY ME' except that was a good movie and this was not. (There were a few good actors, especially the Caulkin kid.) It's funny how they even put the "bully brother" in there just like S.B.M. Oh and yea, the dead body just like S.B.M. The only major difference was that this time there was a GIRL in the group. And by the way, what kind of a Mother would let her young daughter go off for the day with a bunch of guys in car? I can understand wanting to rip-off S.B.M. because it was such a great movie, but if you are not creative enough to invent your OWN movie...then you shouldn't make one!

Point of Origin (2002 TV Movie)

Very well done!!

[10/10 · 23 June 2002]

This was a very good movie. The filming techniques were very cool. The ending sort of left you guessing....was John Orr(Ray Liotta) guilty? Some of us thought so, others said he was definitely "set up." We highly recommend this movie to those who enjoy reading a great mystery novel. It's laid out like that only better because you also get all the awesome visual effects!

The Glass House (2001)

A Real Disappointment

[5 January 2002]

One of the most "predictable" films I have ever endured. I rented it, and fast forwarded more than once. The story line could have been interesting..but, was NOT. A total waste of time and destruction of fine cars! Definitely not one of Leelee's finest performances.
