Plot:
A classic fairy tale Snow White gets a modern make over in the enchanting MIRROR MIRROR. In a kingdom far away an evil queen (Julia Roberts, Eat Pray Love) has taken control of the land and has her eyes set on the young, handsome Prince Alcott (Armie Hammer, The Social Network). Aided by witchcraft and her bumbling assistant Brighton (Nathan Lane, Mouse Hunt) she plans to steal his heart. The only thing standing in her way is her beautiful stepdaughter Snow White (Lily Collins, The Blind Side). Banished to the dark forest Snow White enists the help of seven outlaw dwarves who vow to help her take back her kingdom and break the spell cast over her beloved prince. Lavish, magical and hilarious, MIRROR MIRROR is romance and adventure at its most spectacular.

I heard not so good things about this movie, but I am pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed this movie. A nice retelling of the Snow White story.

Beverly Hills Cop III , a review by Dragonfire

Beverly Hills Cop III Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) journeys back to Beverly Hills for a real roller coaster thrill ride at the Wonderworld amusement park!  Joined by old pals Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and Serge (Bronson Pinchot), Axel becomes the hottest new attraction as he chases down the bad guys on the rides, through the shows and in the underground maze beneath the park.  Beverly Hills Cop III is a "wild, funny action comedy"* that will have you hooked for the whole ride! * Bill Diehl, ABC Radio Network My Thoughts I know a lot of people may not agree with me, but I do like this one overall.  It isn't as good as the first two movies, but I still find it entertaining overall. The plot is a lot like the first two movies, with someone Axel is close to being shot or killed and clues leading to California.  This time, a popular amusement part, Wonderworld - clearly meant to be a version of Disneyland - is involved.  That is sort of interesting, though it is also a little odd at the same time.  The movie is still rated R, though it does seem to be tamed down in different ways.  Axel is more restrained, and while it sort of makes sense since the character is older, it is a little odd as well.  There is still humor in the movie, though it isn't as funny as the previous movies.  Axel still says and does some funny things, but like I mentioned, he's a bit more restrained, and that means he isn't as funny.  Serge is back in a few scenes and he does add some humor, though he does seem a little out of place.  I do miss Taggart and Bogomil.  I think it is said that Taggart retired, but I don't remember hearing anything about Bogomil.  Billy is back at least and he is still entertaining.  Jon is a new character who isn't too fond of Axel at first.  There is an extra on the DVD that has some of the cast and crew talking about the movie.  It is interesting. For me, the movie is entertaining and I enjoy it.  Some people probably feel differently, especially since it isn't as strong as the first two movies. I did get a review posted on Epinions.

Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvd

Ghost Whisperer
Melinda Gordon (Jennifer Love Hewitt) is a young newlywed with the unique gift to communicate with spirits of people who have died - a talent that was inherited from her grandmother.

The dead seek out Melinda's ability to help them relay significant messages and information to the living. Despite her fear, compassion compels her to help these earthbound spirits cross over by completing their unfinished business with the living. Relive these amazing journeys in all 22 first-season episodes.

Pilot
Melinda is haunted by the spirit of a restless soldier who died 30 years ago in Vietnam. She helps the veteran and his living son find closure.

My Thoughts:
A wonderful series... one of my all-time favorites. This series is what made me a big Jennifer Love Hewitt fan.... as while I did hear of her before I really wasn't that familiar with her until this show. In the early episodes the show was focused more on the dramatic touching storylines. But it didn't take long for it to become more then that. To put some eerie scenes into the show. To put an over-all story arc. If by chance you never seen this show... I highly recommend it.

My Rating:
