“Top Gun” Movie Review
“Top Gun” Plot Summary
The macho students of an elite US Flying school for advanced fighter pilots compete to be best in the class, and one romances the teacher.
Fun, entertaining and unbelievable!
Most of the comments about this movie are more unbelievable than the picture itself. Some are saying it’s the greatest movie which is far from true. On the other side are the cinema snobs who won’t let themselves enjoy this motion picture. This movie may require much more ’suspension of disbelief ‘ than most but the fact that many are still enjoying it says plenty about its entertainment value.

“The Road” Movie Review
“The Road” Plot Summary
A post-apocalyptic tale of a man and his son trying to survive by any means possible.
Very important movie …
I just got home from seeing ‘The Road’ and my stomach is still in a knot. I never read the book and therefore won’t be making any comparisons. I’ll simply comment on the film. I can’t imagine the performances being any better from any of the actors, starting at Viggo and working my way down to the smallest roles. I can’t imagine the bleak post-apocalyptic world being portrayed any more realistically. I can’t imagine the general feeling of sadness, desperation, hopelessness, terror and pain being captured more accurately. If that was the goal, the people involved in the making of this movie did their job magnificently. Having said that, it isn’t for everyone. I saw this movie alone because I had a feeling my wife wouldn’t be into it. It’s tough to watch. However, in the midst of this recession brought on by greed and materialism, I think it’s a movie that everyone of age SHOULD see in order to put things back into perspective, if only for a day. I had a lump in my throat through most of the movie and was desperate to get home and hug my two boys through most of it as well. I also felt like downsizing our entire life in terms of the unnecessary ’stuff’ we have. I imagined how many homeless people wander the streets right now with that feeling of hopelessness and desperation. What more could I ask from a Saturday afternoon at the theater? It’s this kind of movie that helps maintain a degree of integrity in the film industry among the inaneness that surrounds it.

“The Pink Panther 2″ Movie Review
“The Pink Panther 2″ Plot Summary
Insp. Jacques Clouseau teams up with a squad of International detectives who are just as bumbling as he is. Their mission: Stop a globe-trotting thief who specializes in stealing historical artifacts.
Best Ever Steve Martin Comedy
The movie is very watchable entertaining and VERY funny. I can now officially confirm that this movie proves Dennis Pennis was completely wrong in stating that Steve Martin had lost is Mojo. From the opening scene where Inspector Clouseau is trapped in the window of the moving car to the final scene at the wedding, this movie is a riotous and funny side splitting event. The casting of John Cleese was inspired. The chemistry between Martin and Cleese is superior to that in the first film between Kevin Kline and Martin. The other actors particularly the ever excellent Alfred Molina were very good. As of course was the cameo from Lilly Tomlin. The pacing and comic timing of this movie was very crisp, which added immensely to the enjoyment of the piece. I would rate it as one of the top 10 comedy films of all time. It is easily as good as anything Blake Edwards put together, with Peter Sellers. This film finally lays to rest the silly notion that Peter Sellers was a superior Clouseau than Martin. In a final point to prove Martin’s Genius. I defy you not to fall on the floor with side splitting laughter when Inspector Clouseau is explaining the password to John Cleese’s character after the black berets have come through the windows on the ropes. This is vintage Martin not to be missed.
