Masked and Anonymous (2003)

out of the cookie cutters

[27 August 2004]

you cant get much bigger of a Bob Dylan fan than me, but i tried my best to not let that interfere with my evaluation of the movie. If you like Dylan, and at least think you understand him, you'll like the movie. Today, there are 4 cookie cutter classes of movies...your drama, bathroom humor slapstick comedy, your romantic comedy, and everything else. I cant say that this is the best movie ever, but i can say that it was a nice escape from these categories, as about 20% of the year's movies are.

Abstract is what keeps my faith in the modern day films alive. Have a nice day.

Splinter Cell (2002 Video Game)

one of my favorites

[7 June 2004]

All I can say is, "wow". This is one of the best games I have played in a while. Splinter Cell is definitely the best spy game i have rented. The graphics are good, the shadows are well done, and the AI on the guards was excellent as well. Picking locks, taking hostages, shooting out lights, brilliant. It is the ONLY game that I have really gotten into. There is a part where you have to wait by the door for the phone to ring and distract the guards, and I got so tense that I jumped and threw down the controller when MY phone rang! Haha. I strongly suggest that you rent it. If you get stuck, Don't GIVE UP! remember all of the options that you have. ****
