Mandy's Cinema Page

I rarely see a movie that I do not enjoy. I love the feeling of being absorbed into the big screen. I have always been the emotional one in the group that cries the hardest during the sad parts, laughs the loudest during comedies and jumps the highest during scary movies. This page is no where near completed, but at least I started it. I love movies and I don't know if i could list and review all the flicks that I have enjoyed, but I'll try.

Love em'

Leave em'

Americas Sweethearts - Just an all around well written movie. Julia and John are two of my favorite actors, and together on one screen they were fantastic. I think anyone would fall in love with this movie like I did. The line I will take with me.. "kiki.. kiki.... awww kiki."

Jurassic Park III - As I sat in the theatre full of chattering kids, I told myself that the movie was going to suck and be so dumb. I was so wrong. This movie scared the jeepers out of me, how do they make it so real? It was good, I would recommend it, but leave the kids at home.

The Kiss of the Dragon - If your into martial art films then you would like this one. I love action and fight scenes, but I can hardly watch the blood and hear the cracking of bones. This movie was Really bloody. I had to close my eyes and plug up my ears more than once.

Legally Blonde - How can you not like Reese? She is too cute, and I laughed at how they milked the valley girl persona. This movie is light hearted and perfect for a girls night out. I think the guys might like to watch Witherspoon too, she wears a bikini in part of the movie. I adore her husband too. :-)

Memento - There wasn't much talk about his movie, but it was really cool. If you like mind teasers and well thought out films, you will enjoy this flick as much as I did. The Brad Pitt look alike who started in ths movie was Guy Pearce. Click on the link and check it out if you haven't heard about it.

This page is dedicated to Baggett, the only other person I know that loves movies more than I do. This guy has seen them all, and does a much much better job of reviewing them.

Cartoon Movies - I know this seems weird and there are some exceptions, but for the most part I don't watch cartoon movies. Ever since I watched Fivel Goes West and my brother and father made fun of me for crying so hard in the theater, I swore to never see a cartoon movie again. Shreck would be an exception to this rule, I thought that movie was great. It had some racie adult jokes that made it enjoyable for the older people.

Very Bad Things - A very bad movie. I seriously question the character of the person who actually have something good to say about this movie. It sucked. My girlfriends used to make me tell the plot on my own words because they knew I would get all worked up and by the end of the story, I would act out the role of the female who runs in the street without moving her arms and ... well, they thought it was pretty funny. I hated this movie.

Traffic - Now Baggett and I have conflicting opinions on this flick. He calls it artistic and creative, I was so annoyed by watching a brown tinted screen. I also thought that it was too graphic regarding the daughters problems. Its a renter in my book.

End of Days - Why would Arnold choose to make such a crappy movie? I have only walked out of one movie in my life, and I wish I would have made this the second. I was offended by the symbolism and kept waiting for the director to redeem himself in some way... but it kept getting worse. I hated it.
