Overview	Just when you thought it was safe to go back to camp...here's even more heart-pounding terror. Five years after the horrible bloodbath at Camp Crystal Lake, all that remains is the legend of Jason Vorhees and his demented mother, who had murdered seven camp counsellors. At a nearby summer camp, the new counsellors are unconcerned about the warnings to stay away from the infamous site. Carefree, the young people roam the area, not sensing the ominous lurking presence. Ony by one, they are attacked and brutally slaughtered. Suspense and screams abound in this compelling thriller.

Trailers

Luckily, when I first went to watch this movie, I already heard, that this movie goes in a different direction than the trailer promises. And I enjoyed this movie. The only thing which really bothers me a little (the first time around and now) is the ending. I like the ending, but I thought the camera stayed too long on Will Smith and Charlize Theron (alternating) and combined with the use of slow motion, it was a little over-dramatic. I think the scene would have been much better, if it were faster cut. But other than this, I thought it is a fun take on the superheroes genre. I like the "origin story" of Hancock. A little different than most of the recent Superhero movies.
I just remembered another thing, which I do not like. It has been added to this extended version (luckily there is also the regular version on the Blu-ray disc). It's the scene, where Hancock has sex with the woman in the beginning and is having some "super sperm". This is a scene which belongs into movies like "Scary Movie" and not here.

Charmed Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

16. Lucky Charmed
The Charmed Ones join forces with a Leprechaun to banish a deadly demon who is killing Leprechauns and stealing their magic. Good magic battles bad magic as the sisters tries to reverse the Leprechauns' bad luck.

My Thoughts:
This one is just your decent, fun episode. not really sure what to say about it... so think I will just leave it at... I enjoyed it, even thought there was nothing really special about the episode.

17. Cat House
Piper accidentally casts a spell that sends Phoebe and Paige back in time where, unbeknownst to the sisters, a wicked warlock tries to permanently alter their future by killing The Charmed Ones' cat.

My Thoughts:
This episode was kinda fun. It is a clips episode... if I am not mistaken... and I could be... but I think it is the only clip episode in the entire series. But it was fun looking back at clips from the older episodes. I did take notice that (of course) there was no Prue present... but they didn't leave her out all together... they showed the scene of when Prue was turned into a dog. And a couple other things like that. So it was nice to see they didn't leave the thought of her out... like they had to leave her image out of this episode.

18. Nymphs Just Want To Have Fun
Piper and Phoebe race against time to rescue Paige after she is transformed into a nymph and then captured by a demon who wants to rule the forest.

My Thoughts:
This was a decent episode... but nothing all that special about it. Just a standard good episode.

19. Sense and Sense Ability
An old crone who wants to kidnap Piper's baby weakens The Charmed Ones by stealing their senses. The blind, deaf and mute sisters must overcome their handicaps to defeat her.

My Thoughts:
This episode I really enjoyed. I must say... I definitely like Baby Wyatt much better then I ever did Cole. A lot of time a series will go downhill when they bring a baby into the show... but that is certainly not the case for Charmed.
