Gothika, a review by addicted2dvd

Title: Gothika
Movie Count: 29

Plot:My Thoughts:
This is a ghost story I enjoy every now and again. I wouldn't say it is the best ghost story I ever watched.. but for me it has it's moments.  I would rate it at slightly above average.... just nothing extra special about it in my opinion. Of course that could be because I had the movie figured out a bit early... so it did seem a bit predictable in my opinion. But either way I think it is a fun watch.

Plot:
Betsy's Wedding is a funny, feelgood movie about a wonderfully eccentric family and their hilarious trials and tribulations. It's about everything but their daughter's wedding! Anything can and does happen when the freespirited bride-to-be casually announces her engagement, setting off a series of crazy events, including accidental meetings with the mafia, oddball romances and riotous schemes! Betsy's Wedding is the perfect hit - and irreverent story filled with all the warmth, wackiness and humor you won't want to miss!

Extras:

• Scene Access

This is one I never got to see until now... surprising as there is a lot of good cast members in this one... like Molly Ringwald (I just love a redhead!), Alan Alda, Madeline Kahn and Joe Pesci.... and at the time this came out I was working at a video store... so I definitely had the opportunity. I found the film to be right entertaining. Maybe not the best comedy I ever seen... but was well worth the time put in to watch it.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: The Complete First Season marathon, a review by Dragonfire

What He Beheld
Sarah and John's true identities are discovered by a mysterious operative. Comartie's infiltration of the FBI has devastating consequences.

My Thoughts

I really enjoyed this episode and think it worked pretty well as a season finale.  There were still doubts about Cameron and Derek that seem to have all sorts of potential for the second season.  I like that the FBI agent has had to realize that there are some very strange things going on and I think it will be interesting to see how he continues to cope with that.  I loved the birthday present Derek gave John.  It was very touching and also opened up some possibilities for the second season as well that should be interesting. 

Overall I've really enjoyed this series and am glad I decided to pick up the DVD set.  It is a really entertaining show that has added new things to John and Sarah's story while also remaining true to the source material of the first two movies.  Now I want to start on the second season episodes right now.
