My Thoughts:
I bought this while i was on vacation in Germany actually. Mainly because of Marilyn Monroe. And i actually enjoyed this one a fair bit. I just hoped i would see more of Marilyn Monroe tho. Some people would prolly disagree with me right now, but i would say this movie is a musical. So its not a movie for you Pete! But i do enjoy a good musical from time to time, as long as its done correctly and this one was. I enjoyed it, and i would say if you like musical's or just like Marilyn Monroe, give it a shot. (You are warned Pete)

My Thoughts:
So, this was a difficult one to review for me. The movie had a very interesting story (since we know that the movie is based on a true story) So you want to find out how it ends, on how it goes with 'Billy' but for me, the movie is only avrage. But you got to see how corrupt Turkey was. And how they treated people in prison over there. And even tho it snabbed 2 Oscars, and got a few more nomitations, i have to say that it was a' avrage movie.

My Thoughts:
Brittany brought this film with her to show me... so we watched it this afternoon. I am not one that is a very big fan of Anime... but this film I enjoyed quite a bit. The story was interesting and all the characters were a lot of fun to watch... I especially enjoyed the flame Calcifer. I enjoyed this one enough that I would like to eventually add it to my own collection. Definitely worth the time put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:
Well, still not 100% convinced that Pierce was\is a great James Bond. But this movie is a bit better then the GoldenEye, i got a bit more 'Bond' feel over this. A bit more gadgets, just a bit more 'Bond' overall. And Pierce did a bit better in this one. I will still watch the rest of his Bond movies, but so far its not my favorites. If they keep this up, then its getting there.

My Thoughts:
So, this was a step back from 'Tomorrow Never Dies' IMHO. We dont have too muh of the cool gadgets in this one. We got a few gadgets here and there, but not enough. Its James Bond afterall. And we finally got some Casino action! I've missed the Casino's and the gambling from Pierce Brosnan. And when we finally got to the Casino, what happens? No gambling at all. But i'll give them that, for the efforts. Now, there is one last movie with Pierce, lets see if thats any better. Still just avrage.

My Thoughts:

We just finished this film. I enjoyed it quite a bit... unfortunately Brittany wasn't as impressed with it as I was. Before watching this film everyone I talked to that seen it already said it was even better then the first. While I enjoyed it quite a bit... I don't think I would go that far. I would say it is as good as the first... but not better. It is definitely worth the time put in to watch it. I would say if you liked thef first film... then this one is a must see.

My Thoughts:
I have been looking forward to seeing this film since I seen the first one. To be honest... I ejoyed the first one more.... but this one is still a whole lot of fun to watch. As with the first one... I really liked Chloë Grace Moretz as Hit Girl. She is my favorite character in either film. I had my concerns about Jim Carrey being in this movie... but felt he did better then I expected. One thing I did NOT care for in this film was the "Sick Stick"... thought that was going more for the gross-out humor... something I really never cared for. Though I must say... I did like Hit Girl's motorcycle. Kinda reminded me of Batgirl from the old '60s Batman TV series. Over-all I am thrilled I finally got this one added to my collection... definitely recommended!

My Thoughts:
So, the movie 2 of the 5 was a bit of the same as the 1st one. But the cases get a bit darker it seems. And there are some character growth with our two leads. Something interesting is happening between them. The cast still works great together. But still not sure if this was made as a tv-show first or if it was made directly for a tv-movie. Still good tho.

My Rating:
4/6
