Rescue from Gilligan's Island, a review by addicted2dvd

Rescue from Gilligan's Island
Fifteen years after the SS Minnow's infamous "three hour tour," Gilligan and his fellow shipwrecked friends have found a way off the island for good! Thrust back into reality, will the seven companions find their reentry to civilization more difficult than anticipated?

My Thoughts:
This time I felt like a little senseless fun... so I decided to watch some of the antics of Gilligan and the gang. It is a fun movie.. and that is just about it. If you liked the TV Series it is a must see... but if you didn't it is just more of the same. Being in the public domain the dvd itself is not very impressive. The one I got is one of those really cheap Dollar DVDs you see in the stores. Decent picture and sound... virtually no extras... except for a preview clip of a bunch of other releases from the same company.

Get ready for a twisted take on the classic tale as Hansel (JEREMY RENNER) and Gretel (GEMMA ARTERTON) have turned pro, coping with the trauma of their childhood captivity by slaying witches for hire. But when seemingly unstoppable bounty hunters meet their match in an enemy so evil, it'll take all their training, weapons and courage to survive. PAYBACK IS A WITCH!

We decided to watch this one last night. I know a lot of people don't like this kind of film where they mix action and horror together... but it is a genre I have always liked. And this film is no different. While I wouldn't say it is the best I have seen in the genre... I definitely enjoyed it quite a bit. This film has an interesting take on an old story and the cast all did a great job. I also was happy they didn't feel the need to make this a 2+ hour movie... like a lot of films are anymore. Anyway... definitely recommended.

Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

10. Pheromone, My Lovely (11/28/93)
A scheming chemist douses the Daily Planet staff with attraction-inducing perfume. The results: Jimmy pursues a model, Perry White falls for the cleaning woman, and Lois has the hots for Clark.

My Thoughts:
I have definitely seen better... but it is a decent episode. If nothing else the scenes of Lois in love with Clark was fun to watch. Not sure I would be strong enough to not take advantage of a hot woman like that throwing herself at me.
