A superb "who done it?" with a great cast.
13 December 1998
A superb "who done it?" with a great cast. This mystery kept me guessing right up until the end. While there were many clues and twists, most viewers, like me, will be very surprised about who is guilty, and the outcome. The user ratings for this movie are certainly justified. A very underrated, and exceptional movie for viewing pleasure. You really need to see this movie.

THE BEST WESTERN OF ALL TIME!!!!!
13 December 1998
THIS IS THE BEST WESTERN OF ALL TIME!!!!!

Of course, everyone knows that it is a remake of The Seven Samurai. But Walter Mirisch and John Sturges took a great story, and adapted it to a proven genre, just as Peter Benchley took Moby Dick and adapted it into Jaws. No one ever complained that Benchley's story was a rip-off (no pun intended).

Skyscraper (1996 Video)
Anna Nicole Smith does Die Hard. Not exactly.
27 September 1998
Anna Nicole Smith gives a performance that comparatively makes Jayne Mansfield an Oscar winner. A disgusting rip off of Die Hard, including crawling through air ducts. While the plot wasn't remotely intended to take the viewer on an emotional roller coaster ride, Ms. Smith's only emotion seems to consist of whining. It is obvious she just read many lines from cue cards. The most telling sign of the enthusiasm of this cast was exhibited by the hostages, who when released, just sort of meander out of the building. More energy and enthusiasm is shown by most people when being seated in a dentist's chair.

The whole cast would have been better off if an earthquake collapsed the building on them. The attempted rescue would have been more intriguing.

The nude scenes were apparently just to exhibit her unnatural endowment. I found viewing her mammaries more humorous than erotic. Anna Nicole Smith strikes me as a rather pitiable creature of silicon.

I rented the movie for 50 cents locally. What a waste.
