| Despite being a Bruce Willis fan, I found this film lacking. The ending was a huge let down. When seeing a film where Bruce Willis is a super hero I expected a little more action, not a deeply hidden message. |
| MEET THE PARENTS |

| The usual Ben Stiller comedy. If you like him you'll love this. It is a light hearted comedy with unfortunate circumstances unfolding throughout. |
| DUDE WHERE'S MY CAR? |

| Toilet humour. A film for those who love comedy in bad taste and won't take offence. This film is a must for most typical teenagers, especially the boys. |
| THE GIFT |
| 03/03/01 |
| 7.5 |
| If you liked "The Sixth Sense" you'll like this. It's a bit more spiritual and psychological but is still very compelling. If you're in the mood to be spooked rather than scared, give this film a go. |
| MISS CONGENIALITY |
| 24/03/01 |
| 7.5 |
| Sandra Bullock in a great role (I think she also produced it which proves she's a girl of many talents). This film proves that even a ladette can be beautiful with a little bit of help. |

| Great soundtrack. Yes, dance films are back and we like that! It's a cross between fame and dirty dancing with a hip hop beat. Worth catching if you have time in your busy schedules. |
| SPY KIDS |

| A good film for what it's worth, with some cool effects. However I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone over the age of 12 as there is probably something better worth seeing. |
| BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY |
| 23/04/01 |
| 8.5 |
| Fantastic! As good as the critics say it is. Great for a girlie night. Funny, smutty, bitchy with men fighting over you and falling at your feet, this is what 21st century women will be aspiring to. Recommended. |

| Not to my taste. A gruesome waste of time. Thin plot with a sick twist that wasn't worth the money. Avoid if possible, you can do much better things in the time you waste watching this film. |
| THE MEXICAN |

| Romantic comedy. If your a fan of Brad Pitt or Julia Roberts you should see this film. It should appeal to most, however it does have some of those plot lines you can see a mile off. |
| THE MUMMY RETURNS |
| 26/05/01 |
| 7.5 |
| A sequel to the first, containing some self-mockery of its similarities. Action and comedy with John Hannah getting some of the better lines as usual. |
| GET OVER IT |
| 10/06/01 |
| 7.5 |
| Based around a Shakespearean play with an upbeat soundtrack, this comedy is light-hearted and will appeal to many teenagers. If you're love-sick this film may shed a bit of light, reminding you that love is all around us, so keep your eyes open. |

| Fantastic. A laugh a minute, well almost. It's a film for all the family, although for the young-at-heart there are "hidden" adult jokes, which may be appreciated among the fairy tale story line. Recommended. |
| EVOLUTION |
| 14/07/01 |
| 6.5 |
| Based on a meteor containing the slime of life, crashing to Earth. This slime then evoles incredibly fast, leading to mass chaos. Amusing, but not to everyone's taste. Probably one for teenagers & young adults, but don't bother taking your parents. |

| This sequel exceeds the first film by getting straight into the action, but being a sequel that is partically expected. As for the film itself, well it's a Jackie Chan film, so there's plenty of high-flying action. I found the plot too similar to the first for it to get any higher than a 6; but this film is enjoyable, especially if you haven't seen the first Rush Hour. |
| For it's rating the film is alright. However, for the older viewers this film is not worth paying to see. Despite cool gadgets and cute-looking characters, the plot does not hold up. Another film whose trailer shows most of the best parts, but don't waste your money on it, just wait until it premieres on television. |
| A poor sequel indeed. After losing my personel favourite character, the guinea-pig, this film could have been re-titled Dr Dolittle and a bear. Having paid to see the film, I did watch it to the end. There are a few laughs in this film, but the trailer is about as good as it gets. |

| RUSH HOUR 2 |
| CATS AND DOGS |
| DR DOLITTLE 2 |
| This film has a great finish. Lots of guns, computers and girls I'd say this is one for the lads. A great plot, brought to life with top-quality acting. Worth a peek; however don't see this film with anyone who is into computers as they may criticise the realism involved. |

| SWORDFISH |
| Being set in Manchester and seeing this film in a cinema which is panned past quite early on, i can say i immediately liked the look of this film. A typical British comedy, plenty of home-grown laughter from our own actors. The plot was thin, but overall the film was entertaining due to the constant jokes. |

| PAROLE OFFICER |
| This film is long. That's the worst part about it. If I could have changed the film I would have added two different love stories into it, but sadly they didn't happen. A classic boy-meets-girl story with great jousting and sword-fighting scenes. |

| JEEPERS CREEPERS |
| AMERICAN PIE 2 |
| This sequal would be enjoyed more if you have seen the first one, however the film is also quite funny on its own. I personally think this one was funnier than the first, but that's baring in mind i had seen the first and did get the more subtle jokes which played on the first one. Overall an ok film, if you like the toilet-humour type films. |
| This id not one to watch alone in the dark. Take a hand to hold, you'll need it! Although it's not realistic or full of suspense, you'll still appreciate having company through this reasonably scary film. Disappointing ending which could have done with more development, however i suppose it leaves it open for a sequel, but I won't spoil it for you. |

| This is a sinister horror. The plot is ingenious, but to the trained cinema-goer it's an obvious ending (once it's revealed and you think back). Been there, done that, and yet it still got me. Just shows I'm not as used to these films as I should be. |

| I'm still not convinced this film was worth the hype. It was entertaining, and had a good plot. The adult cast was excellent. However, it hasn't made me want to read the books. |
