“The Perfect Storm” Movie Review
“The Perfect Storm” Plot Summary
An unusually intense storm pattern catches some commercial fishermen unaware and puts them in mortal danger.
Greatest Film i saw that summer
I remember reading this book a year ago, it was superb. It will remain in my library as long as i have one. I saw the movie a short while afterwards (i picked up the book when the shooting for the film was just ending). I purposely refused to read the critic’s reviews until i had seen it. Honestly, it was one of the most magnificent films i had seen in a theater. It had plenty of action and suspense, but held a sturdy plot, unlike most Willis or Stallone films currently. It’s previous existence in book form helped it I’m sure. Clooney adopts a rugged look and sound that would make you think he’d never appear on a Teen magazine. Mark Wahlberg is also an extraordinary actor in this film, it’s good to see him go so far in just these past few years. The volume jumps around a little (a personal pet-peeve of mine), but the sound effects and computer graphics on the waves are magnificent. The only thing that bothered me was the constant jokes and ego-boosting coming from the group of teenagers near me. I’m sure this will be fixed with any video or DVD version though :) Afterwards, i did read the reviews, many were sub-par. Often, the professional critics commented on the physics of the waves and visibility in weather conditions… Please don’t forget that this is a movie. For the sake of entertainment, sacrifice the details (you’ll only notice them if you’re a fisherman anyway).

“Sgt. Bilko” Movie Review
“Sergeant Bilko” Plot Summary
This movie is a remake of the hit series which starred, Phil Silvers as Sgt. Bilko. In this movie, Bilko… add synopsis
I enjoyed it a lot
Steve Martin is larger than life in this very funny comedy. He plays the title character who is lazy, sleazy, clever and always one step ahead of everyone else he should be ahead of. He runs the motor pool like it would be run by someone from ‘Animal House’. They spend all their time gambling and sleeping it off
A new recruit (Darryl Mitchell, from ‘Galaxy Quest’ and ‘10 Things I Hate About You) does not understand his unprofessionalism as a military man so in some ways Darryl acts as the audience. Bilko has a girlfriend who is onto him but loves him in spite of herself. He constantly leaves her at the altar (‘I’m the only woman I know whose wedding dress is showing wear’) but its a game they play more than anything. Plot takes off when Phil Hartman shows up. He’s an old adversary of Bilko and wants to even an old score. He demands that Bilko and his men shape up and even starts romancing Bilko’s girlfriend, which of course drives Bilko crazy. Glenne Headley is perfectly cast as Bilko’s girlfriend. Unfortunately Phil Hartman is miscast and does not generate the laughs you’d hope for from this comic genius. Dan Ackroyd is very good too, but of course the movie belongs to Steve Martin. He’s an acquired taste, but so what. 8/10.
