Best Boy (1979)
9/10
Are You into Film? Or to educate your family?
7 July 2005
After watching this documentary on Zero, a 45 year-old man, with a disability, who must learn how to take care of himself, before his parents, the ones who always took care of zero up until today, dies. A film maker, like myself, thrives, to watch documentaries, this documentaries gave good information on how to do a good documentary. If your looking for a way to educated your children, or change the Way your family thinks, renting this 104 minute movie, will blow them away. it teaches you how the "outcasts" or the "Special needed people," have feeling, even though they are different. It really makes you think about your life, and how you should take life for granted. Zero, works hard to change his way of life, and the most difficult challenges, he faces, and though they are tough, Zero, overcomes them, with a shocking and special story to go with it.

Bewitched (2005)
5/10
I nearly fell out of my seat from so much shock
5 July 2005
Warning: Spoilers
The actors in this cast were lead to believe that this movie would rock. "Bewitched" gave the original a bad name. There were problems everywhere, the acting and the plot-line for example. Nicole Kidman, was not really to euthsiatic for her role. Will Ferrel, was very annoying, and was hard to watch his acting fall down the tubes. He tried to be funny, but only made his acting, which was a zero, to -5. Kritsin Chenoweth, was the only decent actress, and was the only one who made this movie funny. Also, Carole Shelly, was also great at her acting, made the rating of this movie go up. The story-plot was a little confusing, and it had some questions that were never answered. But, the huge question I had was; why is this movie PG-13? Don't waste your money to go see it, wait till it comes out on DVD. I usually never give bad reviews, but this review was surely, a bad one.

Wicked Wicked Good
11 April 2005
If you're not familiar with the Broadway show "Wicked" just get the CD and like many people who have listened to the music can agree that this show is spectacular. "Wicked" is about the life of the witches of Oz before and during Dorothy's entrance into Oz. The Wicked Witch played by Idina Menzel (Jan. 9-SHOSHANA BEAN) has another story of how she became wicked. And Glinda the good played by Kristin Chenoweth (Present-Jenn Thompsan) is the wicked Witches best friend. Both actress shows that their talents in acting and singing are beautiful. Chenoweth a high Soprano who is very high and beautiful takes youth heart away. Myself, being a Chenoweth fan, and seeing everything she has been in, was in love with her way of playing Glinda. Menzel proves in her end act one number "Defying Gravity" that she has a third lung, after she holds a long note for a very long time. The cast with Carole Shelly, Norbert Lee Butz, Michelle Felder, and Joel Gray, also makes the show outstanding. I should mention today's present wizard is played by George Hearn from the appetite losing show "Sweeny Todd." This documentary explains "Wicked" so watching this will be like an entering stage to the show "Wicked." You will fall in love after you see this show. I have seen it 6 times and each time I fall deeper and deeper in love. Myself, who was in the hospital for 21 days with an illness, made me feel better, and made my horrible pain go away for a couple of hours while I listened to Chenoweth and Menzel belt their wonderful sounds. So, I thank them for helping me out and battle my almost deathly illness, which I still recover from today. Lisining to the music is soothing. So, this documentary will enter you into "Wicked." It was good to watch. And if anyone like Stephen Swartz, the musical geniuses, or who acted in "Wicked" ever reads this.... Thank you...So much for helping me feels the world of Oz.

Zoey 101 (2005–2008)
A Good and Bad Show
10 April 2005
Warning: Spoilers
"Zoey 101" is about a girl living at a boarding school. Before the school belonged to only boys, but becomes mixed with boys and girls later.Zoey (Jamie Lynn Spears) plays the roll as the popular leader of thegirls. Spears has an acting ability, but is not a top actress. This is maybe the only show she will be famous for. Her "All That" debute as oneof the cast members got her ready for "Zoey 101." The acting is not quite there, but the story line is unique and explains what life at a boarding school is like. Other new actors that debute on this TV series some of them look like they will be on other pending Nickalodean shows or movies. All together this show ranges from ages 9-12 because it is mostly applied towards middle school age children. I would give this a rating of 6 out of 10. This is a Nickalodean show that will last 1 or 2 seasons, but, is a suggest show to watch when nothings on.

This film was good for all ages
28 November 2004
Being a 45 year old this movie did not put me asleep. My children and I loved this movie and never stop talking about it. This movie stretches from age's 4-senior citizen. The voices and story plot is great! I hope when you are looking in the paper for a movie you chose the Polar Express. This movie is great for your children for the Christmas Holiday. I will be buying this on video when it comes out to watch it with or without my children. The book created by the best children's author Chris Van Allsburg, created an excellent book has now helped to create a excellent movie. This movie will be talked about for years. The Polar Express is an excellent movie for anyone. So if you need a movie to see go see the Polar Express. It is for ALL ages!!
