My Thoughts:
This is the first time I have watched this movie. And once again I enjoyed it very much. Same type of great effects... this time done slightly better. An interesting story that held my attention throughout... and horror legend Vincent Price as The Invisible Man. How can you go wrong? But I must admit... this is one of the older movies I have seen with Vincent Price.... and I really didn't recognize him! If it wasn't for his name in the credits... I would never have realized it was him. This movie has great image and sound quality (at least on my standard 24in TV). It was a true joy to watch.

Plot:
A romantic comedy that follows the non-existent love-life of Eve, LOVE ON THE SIDE is a must-see for all fans of Bridget Jones' Diary' and 'Miss Congeniality'.

Eve believes she has no more appeal than the leftovers she clears away in her job as a waitress in a small-time diner. However, for years she has harboured a secret crush on the jaw-droppingly handsome local football hero who sadly doesn't even realise she exists.

As if Eve's love-life couldn't get any worse, Linda, a larger than life, blonde bombshell from the city sweeps into town, swooping up all the fellas in her path. As the local guys go crazy for Linda, Eve's plans to bag her football hero go seriously awry.

Marla Sokoloff is a very likable lead. Too bad I haven't seen much of her. The first movie I have seen with her was "Whatever It Takes", which I enjoyed.
I am wondering about the girly guy on the right-side of the cover. I haven't seen him in the movie.
I was not sure if I should include this movie in this thread, but I think it qualifies.
Every guy in town is falling for Linda (the hot woman on the cover), but she is showing interest in Eve (Marla Sokoloff), which boosts the confidence of Eve.

Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvd

Heroes
Discover the phenomenon that is sweeping audiences everywhere as Heroes: Season 1 comes to DVD! Experience the suspense, mystery, and electrifying twists as this astonishing series follows seemingly unconnected, ordinary people around the globe who discover they have extraordinary powers. As they come to terms with their unique abilities, their risky decisions will affect the futures of everyone around them ... and the world. Join their epic journey in this seven-disc set packed with hours of fascinating and revealing bonus features, including the never-before-aired series premier from show creator Tim Kring.

Genesis
Events are set in motion as a total eclipse casts its shadow across the globe and a genetics professor uncovers his father's secret research revealing that people with super powers are living among us.

My Thoughts:
This is a good series... though I have found I am not enjoying it quite as much the second time around... as I remember thinking it was awesome when it aired on TV. The pilot episode does definitely set up the story well. And it is fun watching all the ideas for people with special powers. While the re-watch value isn't quite as high... I think it is still worth collecting the DVDs. It is still good entertainment.

My Rating:
