I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, a review by addicted2dvd

I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry
Adam Sandler and Kevin James star as best friends and fellow firefighters Chuck and Larry, the pride of their Brooklyn fire station. Chuck owes Larry for saving his life. Larry called in the favor big-time by asking Chuck to pose as his "domestic partner" so his kids will get his pension. But when a fact-checking bureaucrat becomes suspicious, the two straight buys are forced to improvise as love-struck newlyweds. Jessica Biel, Ving Rhames and Dan Aykroyd co-star in this hilarious comedy.

My Thoughts:
My sister-in-law loaned this to me after buying it a while back. Told me it was hilarious... that I need to check it out. I am a fan of both Adam Sandler and Kevin James so I couldn't wait to watch it. Only problem... I still can't get her to buy widescreen only... if there is a full screen version... that is what she buys. So that part kind of sucked. But the movie itself... That I enjoyed... was very funny. It is definitely one I need to add to my collection.

Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives, a review by addicted2dvd

Title: Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives
Movie Count: 95
TV Ep Count: 45
Other  Count: 2
Time Started: 4:15am
Plot:
As a child, Tommy Jarvis did what many other died trying to do. He killed Jason Vorhees, the mass murderer who terrorized the residents of Crystal Lake. But now, years later, Tommy is tormented by the fear that maybe Jason isn't really dead.

So Tommy and a friend go to the cemetery to dig up Jason's grave. Unfortunately for Tommy, (and very unfortunately for his friend), instead of finding a rotting corpse, they discover a well rested Jason who comes back from the dead for another bloody rampage in 'Friday The 13th, Part VI: Jason Lives'.

My Thoughts:
This one I did enjoy. It seemed to step things up a bit... but once again most the characters in this one I just didn't care about. I do think it was pretty cool this one was centered more around Tommy Garvis trying to stop Jason then it was about the teens just dying one by one. Gave it a little more of a story.

Plot:
Every not-so-often, along comes a show that's different. Wonderfully different. Pushing Daisies, TV Guide's Matt Roush writes, "restores my faith in TV's ability to amuse, enchant and entertain." It's the story of Ned, a lonely pie maker whose touch can reanimate the dead. Cool, but there's a hitch. If Ned touches the person again, the miracle is reversed. If he doesn't, a bystander goes toes up. What to do? Easy: Team with a private eye, bring murder victims back just long enough to discover whodunit, and collect the rewards. Things go well until Ned's boyhood sweetie is the next dear departed, and he can't resist bringing her back for keeps! Dig the wit, style and quirky romance: If you're not laughing, you may need a visit from Ned.

A short-lived series I enjoyed very much. But I must admit I am glad that it only had two short seasons. The premise is nice, but nothing which holds up multiple seasons.
The pilot episode is a perfect introduction to this series.
