The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
The Hobbits bore me
When I left the movie theater, I felt somehow underwhelmed. I couldn't quite put my finger on why, but I was disappointed.
Was it because I was too excited to see the movie? Was it because the action sequences were similar to Two Towers? Was it because the movie was too long? Was it because the movie just wasn't that great?
I just wasn't sure. Then, after reading a review, I realized why I felt that this movie wasn't as entertaining as the Two Towers. HOBBITS! For whatever reason, the quest of the Hobbits is fairly boring to me. I enjoyed following the plights of Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas much more than of Frodo and the Ring of Power.
That being said, I gave this movie a 7/10 rating. It's definitely above average, but not nearly as entertaining as the other huge blockbuster I couldn't wait to see this year (Pirates of the Carribean).
If you've watched the first two movies, then definitely check this one out. If you are really into the plight of the Hobbits, then you won't be disappointed. If you are just in love with Orlando Bloom, you might want to skip it as he (and the rest of the non-hobbits) gets much less screen time than in the Two Towers.
Sexual Chemistry (1999)
Excellent B-Softcore movie!
Call me a weirdo, but I am a big fan of this movie. Very funny and very sexy women. The plot is just cheesy enough to be hilarious. The acting is as bad as can be expected, but the total package of the movie makes it decent. It's not for everybody, but if you're not offended by R-rated porn, then you could be surprised!
Dogma (1999)
Smith's best movie to date!
All-star cast, and Smith's best writing to date. I thought Clerk's witty banter was phenomenal, and Dogma is even better. Perhaps it is the All-Star cast (Damon is perhaps the most promising youngster in showbiz) or the unreal comedy talent (Chris Rock, George Carlin, Jeneane Garaffolo), but this movie clicked with me from start to finish. Highly recommended to anyone who even remotely enjoyed Clerks, Mallrats, or Chasing Amy.
