My Thoughts: After watching this film I couldn't decide if I wanted to give this film a 3.5 or a 4 star rating as I enjoyed it so much. I really liked the story line but I also liked the fact that there is several familiar faces in it. There is Michael Clarke Duncan, Neal McDonough and of course Kristin Kreuk of Smallville fame in the lead role. This is the first role I seen Kristin Kreuk in that I didn't automatically think "hey, it's Lana!" Which says to me she did a good job in it. Either way, definitely a good and fun film well worth the time put in to watch it. Rating: (From What Movies I Been Watching on September 27th, 2017) The Shakiest Gun in the West, a review by addicted2dvdTitle: The Shakiest Gun in the West Year: 1968 Director: Alan Rafkin Rating: NR Length: 101 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen Audio: English: Dolby Digital: Mono Subtitles: English, French, Spanish Stars: Don Knotts Barbara Rhoades Jackie Coogan Donald Barry Ruth McDevitt Plot: Jesse W. Haywood graduates from dental school in Philadelphia in 1870 and goes west "to fight oral ignorance." Meanwhile stagecoach robber Penelope "Bad Penny" Cushing is offered a pardon if she will track down a ring of gun smugglers. She tricks the bungling Haywood into a fictitious marriage as a disguise, and he becomes the heroic "Doc the Haywood" after he guns down "Arnold the Kid" and performs other exploits with Penny's help (unbeknown to him or anyone else). Extras: Scene Access Feature Trailers My Thoughts: I have this movie in the boxset Don Knotts: The Reluctant Hero Pack. Going into this one I thought I seen it before. But I think all I ever caught before was a couple scenes here and there. It is a pretty good old comedy. Though I have to admit I was expecting a little more from it. Sure it had some good laughs in it. I just thought there would be more of them. I didn't even recognize Pat Morita in it. But being a movie that is over 40 years old I guess that is to be expected. Then there was an innkeeper that looked very familiar when I saw him... turned out it was William Christopher (Father Mulcahy on M*A*S*H). It is the first time this happened with the DVD Player I have now... but this DVD just refused to play in my machine... though it played perfectly in my computer. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5 (From Weekend Movie Marathon: Unwatched DVDs on August 27th, 2010) Tom's TV Pilots marathon, a review by Tom
Plot: College isn't the only thing he can't get into! How's a guy supposed to keep his nose in the books with so many sexy girls in his face? Keitaro moved to his grandma's apartment building to cram for a college entrance exam. Too bad nobody told him the complex is for ladies only and that he's the new manager! The job has some perks: girls frolicking in the hot springs all day and lounging in their naughtiest nighties all night. It's definitely gonna be tough for Keitaro to focus on studying - especially if one of his titillating tenants turns out to be his long lost love! From the man who quickened your pulse with Negima! and My Santa, it's Ken Akamatsu's classic - Love Hina! Love Hina 1.01 All-Girls Dorm with Outdoor Bath: Hot Spring (2000-04-19) I know someone who absolutely loves this series and the manga it was based on. It's the prototypical harem comedy. I never really got into it. It has some fun moments, but I always preferred "Ai Yori Aoshi" to this. Rating: (From Tom's TV Pilots marathon on June 7th, 2012) |
