Necessary Roughness, a review by KinkyCyborgTitle:Necessary Roughness Year: 1991 Director: Stan Dragoti Rating: PG-13 Length: 108 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 1.78:1 Audio: English: Dolby Digital: 5.1, English: Dolby Digital: Dolby Surround, French: Dolby Digital: Dolby Surround Subtitles: English Stars: Scott Bakula Hector Elizondo Robert Loggia Harley Jane Kozak Larry Miller Plot: THE TEXAS STATE ARMADILLOS are fourth down and nowhere-to-go after a corruption scandal nearly ends the football program. Now upstanding coach Ed Dennaro (Hector Elizondo) must put together a brand new team. For the position of quarterback Gennaro recruits Paul Blake (Scott Bakula, 'Quantum Leap'), a 34-year-old former high school star whose field of dreams turned out to be the family farm. Blake still has the arm, but can he score with a team that includes a samurai lineman, a butterfingered receiver, and a Samoan strongman with eyes for the place-kicker (Kathy Ireland)? Extras: Scene Access Closed Captioned My Thoughts: A favorite comedy of mine and even after a half dozen viewings now the laughs still hold up. There have been a lot of misfit sports comedies in the past but this one sustains the laughs from start to finish. Larry Miller as the conniving school dean is a scene stealer! This is one of those movies I throw in when I want some laughs and it delivers every time. KC Rating: (From KinkyCyborg's Random Reviews 2010 on September 21st, 2010) One Missed Call, a review by addicted2comicsTitle: One Missed Call Year: 2008 Director: Eric Valette Rating: PG-13 Length: 87 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 1.85:1, Full Frame 1.33:1 Audio: English: Dolby Digital: 5.1, Spanish: Dolby Digital: 5.1, French: Dolby Digital: 5.1 Subtitles: English, French, Spanish Stars: Shannyn Sossamon Edward Burns Ana Claudia Talancon Ray Wise Azura Skye Johnny Lewis Plot: It happens to one. Then another. And another. College students discover eerie voicemail messages on their cell phones. Each call comes from the near future. Each call has the chilling voice of the student during his or her last moments alive. And each call comes true. Terror is One Missed Call away in this got-your-number shocker based on the hit Japanese thriller Chakushin ari. Does the viral spree of calls have a single source? Is there something that links the victims? Psych student Beth Raymond (Shannyn Sossamon) and detective Jack Andrews (Ed Burns) scramble for answers. And they're working fast. Because Beth just discovered an ominous message. Extras: Scene Access Feature Trailers My Thoughts: The movie was pretty interesting. When I saw the commercial back when it arrived in theaters, I couldn't wait!! This, surprisingly, was my first time seeing it. My only regret about this movie is..well...I was kinda dissapointed in the deaths. I thought they'd all be murdered when they get the calls! I don't think I'll expose anything by saying most of the deaths seemed like accidents. I can't help but feel they should have been pulled away in a bloody trail, still screaming in their last seconds.........what can I say? It's what I expected. Also, the ending is keeping me wondering. (click to show/hide) All in all, it's a good movie, I just it needs a little more help to be on the scary side. At the most, I was only slightly creeped. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5 (From Doing the ABC's Movie Style!! on July 24th, 2010) "Due South" marathon, a review by addicted2dvdHeaven and Earth Another good episode. I personally have mixed feelings about the "Johnny Smith" route they took in this episode. It really didn't bother me much... but much like the father/ghost(?) thing (at least so far)... it just didn't seem to fit in the kind of show I saw this as so far. But then again between those 2 things this shows that they will go the supernatural route. Which my just help me enjoy the whole father storyline more.
