Billy Elliot (2000)
Great Film, Great Acting, Great Directing..Great Story!
13 April 2001
this movie was simply spectacular, it made me want to run around the street and try to feel the freedom billy feels while dancing, you can tell he goes into another world of peace and harmony when he dances, the only glitch was the English in the movie was kind of hard to understand, but if you have the DVD like me just put on the subtitles and after a while you get into it, rent it or buy it, you can't miss this movie.

a Redford overlooked masterpiece!
6 April 2001
first of all let me tell you that I considered golf so boring and dull until i saw this movie, I gained respect for such sport. the way Redford directed this movie was very outstanding, a complete Oscar overlook, specially of Will Smith who actually prove he is more than just a Hollywood action hero, he was so good and had such presence that i actually forgot he was Smith and saw him as Bagger Vance, that is rarely done in these days. give it a chance and you won't regret it.

Explorers (1985)
80's hollywood fantasy at best
6 April 2001
i watched this movie yesterday because i'm a good fan of Joe Dante and i had not seen this flick yet, and i loved it. it projects the same feelings that E.T. and The Goonies gave me, that's one thing i love about 80's movies they use to have new and exciting stories of materials used or nor used before with a unique style, the kids were wonderful in the movie and special effects very good for the time it was made, i love how River Phoenix refers to Poltergeist when he imitates the little girl by saying.."They're Here"...just rent it and you'll see for yourself what i mean when i say 80's hollywood fantasy at best!.

The Birdcage (1996)
8/10
laughed all through it
3 April 2001
unlike the negative comment i just read on this site, this movie is a real good comedy, it portrays gay life with a very tasteful sense of humor and that's the way it should be looked at, have a little bit of fun in your life, watch this you won't regret it and at the end it has a very be "yourself, secure and proud of who you are and let go" feeling and message.

great old time comedy!
3 April 2001
i watched the dvd yesterday for the first time, and it was truly and originally hilarious, the acting was so honest and natural that it felt like i was watching a play, if you are a fan of old comedies and most of all the greatest comedy couple of all time, i highly recommend it. the only factor that i didn't enjoy was that the movie has an aspect ratio of 2:35.1 and the dvd features a pan & scan transfer.

Not boring at all
19 March 2001
despite what other people might say this movie was not boring at all, it had beautiful acting, specially from Mrs. Weaver, beautiful cinematography and a strong story, just because the movie had a very sad and not expected ending it doesn't make it boring, give it a chance, we might be just giving our personal opinions. please make your own.

Vertigo (1958)
8/10
hypnotized!
19 March 2001
last night I was kind of bored and decided to surf the channels, recently I have become a fan of Mr. Hitchcock, god! he knows how to tell a story, so as I was flipping the channels I notice that AMC was playing vertigo, so I decided to watch it because is one of many of his films i haven't seen, and I was so hypnotized by it, the acting, the mood, the music...I could not wait until the end to see what it was going to turn out like, beautiful film from a god of film, if you have not seen this one yet i highly recommend it.
