Three Stooges: Restless Knights, a review by addicted2dvd

The Three Stooges: Restless Knights
Set in Medieval times, the stooges learn they are of royal blood and vow to save the kingdom.


My Thoughts:
This one I found to be pretty average. The setting was only ok with this one... and found that the mixture of old English and modern to be a bit distracting.

Decided to watch this one this morning. It has been sitting in my unwatched pile since this past September. I had planned to watch it for last year's October horror marathon but never got to it at the time. It's not a bad movie... but I have definitely seen better. The story is not all that original and I did find it a bit on the slow side. But it was worth what I paid... especially since I got my copy used for a cheap $1.64. Other then the people listed above this one also has  another face I am familiar with. Aaron Ashmore is in this film... I know him previously from Smallville... where he played Jimmy Olsen.

"Due South" marathon, a review by Rick

A Cop, A Mountie And A Baby.
Good episode but nothing that great I didn't think. Best part of the story was the wolf.

The Gift of the Wheelman
I'm a sap for Christmas episodes. This one was a little lacking. I think in part due to the missing "Christmas episode" standard music. There were a couple of hints toward some carols but there was a Scottish type theme playing for most of the episode.
Unlike Pere I did enjoy the interaction with the dad. It was especially good in the firefight scene where Ray was sitting right there.
Dad "Here... use my gun"
Fraser "I can't... it's imaginary"
 
Thanks Tom for pointing out it was Ryan Phillippe as the kid. I hadn't recognized him previously.
