Mission Impossible meets The Matrix.
Leonardo DiCaprio (playing Dom Cobb) finds himself in almost the same haunting memory he was in, in Shutter Island. That is, searching for the truth about his wife and two children. I’m sure this was purely coincidental, but it is an interesting aside.

I don’t know how this one got past the Syfy (Sci-Fi) Channel and actually got to the movies. The guy behind me was wondering out loud if he could get his money back. And, we only paid a dollar for the admission. Well, I suppose there are worse movies that, fortunately, I never get to see. However this one was pretty bad based on almost any criteria.

Let us cultivate our garden.
For those of you who like the two philosophical stoners, Jay and Silent Bob, you’ll like Clerks II. For those of you who might be offended by a hilarious parody of the Tijuana donkey show, or, first test, for those of you who don’t have a clue what the Tijuana donkey show is, better leave this one on the video rental shelf or take it off your Netflix queue.

Not even Jenna Jameson’s bare chest could save this one. While a plot synopsis normally isn’t given in these reviews, it would be difficult to write one for this movie, as there is little or no plot. The bottom line, 3.5 numb butts. Only Jenna saved it from rating a perfect 4.

Yes she is, which is why this under 20 targeted movie is surprisingly entertaining. The slightly dysfunctional characters combined with this variation of a “fish out of water” movie, has a surprising amount of laughs packed into it as long as you are in your teens or can still remember when you were in your teens. If neither of these is true, or you believe you were never like this while you were growing up, stay home.

U.S. Marshall Leonardo DiCaprio, troubled from his experiences during World War II and the death of his wife, finds himself in the last place he needs to be, a mental institution for the violently criminal insane investigating the disappearance of a patient who killed her three children. To say, they don’t make them like this anymore, would be an understatement. This is among the best of its genre ever made. (more…)

This is an eqally strange variation of the 1942 strange movie of the same name, with many actors you’ll recognize when they were much younger. Overall this is a good movie. You might want to go to IMDB or some other source of movie information to read a synopsis either before or after viewing the movie. The movie explains the one thing you’ll need to know about 3/4 of the way through the movie, but you’ll have to pay close attention. Up until then, you’ll need to be a really good movie fan to understand everything that’s happening. But, in the end, that anticipation of finding out how and where the story is going, is why we watch the movie in the first place. We won’t give away the story here.
