Extras: Scene Access My Thoughts: I guess I first have to stress the fact, that there are no song and dance numbers in this one. Seems to be important for some people ![]() If you enjoy movies about underdog sports teams, I think you will enjoy this one. It's about the Indian national women's hockey team. Interesting about it are the difficulties they are facing. For one thing they have to fight for their place because in India women are not supposed to be playing hockey but are supposed to be housewives. The other big issue is, that these women come from different parts of India. Not only do the character clash, but the trainer also has to deal with the cultural prejudices the team members have against each other. So the movie is more serious than similar movies I know. Shah Rukh Khan stars as the trainer. He did a great job. He plays it rather low key, which is not something I know SRK to do. I am usually do not like to watch sports games, but I have to admit that I was on the edge of my seat in the final match of this movie. Rating: ![]() (From Tom's Random Reviews on June 9th, 2010) I Know What You Did Last Summer, a review by addicted2dvd![]() Title: I Know What You Did Last Summer Movie Count: 81 TV Ep Count: 38 Other Count: 2 Time Started: 10:15am Plot: After an accident on a winding road, four teens make the fatal mistake of dumping their victim's body into the sea. But exactly one year later, the dead man returns from his watery grave, and he's looking for more than an apology. I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER is a "pure fright machine (that) scares the hell out of you!" - Norman Wilner, 'Toronto Star' My Thoughts: This one is not what I would call a favorite... but I do enjoy it now and again. Even though this is little more then an entertaining teen slasher... I do enjoy seeing the familiar faces. Just to name a few we have one of my all-time favorites Jennifer Love Hewitt (Ghost Whisperer), Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy) and Johnny Galecki (Big Bang Theory). My Rating Out of a Possible 5 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (From My Month Long Horror/Halloween Marathon: 2008 on October 25th, 2008) Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvd![]() M*A*S*H Korea, 1950. They were a MASH (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital) unit stationed three miles from the front. Incoming helicopters full of wounded brought the horrors of war to them daily and sometimes bullets flew right outside the operating room door. Hilarity and hijinks were all that kept them sane. Now journey back to that special place where friendships were forged, laughter was found and drinks were served. The Pilot Episode Hawkeye and Trapper raffle off a hot date with Nurse Dish to raise money to send The Swamp's Korean houseboy to school in the States. My Thoughts: This is another old favorite sitcom of mine. To this day this show makes me laugh out loud more times then not. This episode it a great opening for the series. It does a good job of showing you what to expect for the series. I have to admit I love how they fixed the drawing for the date with the nurse. ![]() My Rating: ![]() (From Pete's Pilots on March 25th, 2010) |
