My Thoughts:
A nice movie which I enjoyed throughout, even though there aren't really any surprises. The ending is emotional and done well in my opinion.Rating:

The Mummy Returns, a review by Dragonfire
|  The Mummy Returns |
I first saw this movie in the theater on opening day for it - this was actually the first movie I went to see on opening day. I really like Rick and Evie, so I was happy to see them in another movie. I like Jonathan too and I loved some of his interactions with Alex. The movie is another fun, adventure type movie and it connects well to the first movie. I've seen that some people have said that it contradicted the first movie when Evie was the reincarnation of Anuk-sun-amon. The first movie never said she was...Imohtep was just going to scarfice Evie for the ritual to bring back Anuk-sun-amon - I may have spelled that wrong, sorry - and then her spirit would take over Evie's body. I still really enjoy this movie when I watch it.
This was another of my first reviews at Epinions that I went back and updated later.

Smallville Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd
Disc 4:
13. Recruit
In an effort to recruit Clark for their football team, Met U sends their star player Geoff to show Clark the "perks" of attending Met U. However, after one of Met U's players dies under mysterious circumstances and Lois is arrested for his murder, Clark discovers that Geoff has super powers and is using them to paralyze anyone who gets in his way - including Lois.
My Thoughts:
This was a good episode... though nothing special about it. I think that this episode was made just for a reason for Clark to quit football.
14. Krypto
While driving, Lois accidentally hits a dog and brings it back to the farm to heal. Clark realizes this is no ordinary dog after the pup lifts up a car to retrieve a ball.
My Thoughts:
Decent episode... nothing to special about it... I think this episode was no more then a nod Superboy's pet dog from Krypton. Even though they really changed it up for this series big time.
15. Sacred
After learning that Jason and Lex are in China searching for one of the mysterious kryptonian crystals, Clark and Lana follow in the hopes of finding it first.
My Thoughts:
This is one of the mythology episodes. Not a great one... but it was good. For the second time... Lana gets possessed by the witch in this episode.
16. Lucy
Lois' younger sister, Lucy, with whom Lois doesn't get along, comes to town and charms everyone she meets.
My Thoughts:
This is just another basic good episode. Aside from meeting Lois' sister there is nothing really special here.
