The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian


This was a good movie, better than the first actually. If you love C.S. Lewis or if you love fairy tale adventure movies than you will enjoy this one. However, if you don't know the story or didn't see the first film you might be a little lost. It's more toned down than LOTR but tells the story quite well and stays close to the book. It has a great not so hard to grasp theme of faith is important and wonderful special effects. The main 4 actors are british and at times can be a little annoying but other than that I really liked it. Peter Dinklage (Elf) and Warwick Davis (Willow) did a great job playing good and evil dwarves and liam Neeson was the voice of Aslan. This is a great family movie 13 and up. Enjoy and escape!

AVP 2


AVP 2...sucked. Why do I keep doing this to myself. I guess it's because I loved the first Preditor so much when I was 15. AVP (1) was bad but the sequel was so painful I pushed fast forward just to get it over with. And the ending, please tell me that wasn't a set up for another one. Ok, to stay true to my critique, I will now set up the movie for any unsuspecting poor sap who would foolishly disregard my advice. A preditor ship carrying Alien cargo is breached and wrecks on earth. A dying preditor calls home for help. We then see trouble in a small town when both Alien and Preditor kill humans like squashing bugs on a side walk. Please just skip it and pray they don't make another b/c I'll have to watch it too.
