Val, we saw it with the kiddos last night - they loved it! (mine are 14, 9, and 8). As long as your boys don't have trouble with violence - the bad guys are trying to kill the superhero kids at one point in the movie for quite a long scene. The boy runs super fast and the girl can turn invisible, and they are avoiding bad guys shooting at them with machine guns and trying to run them down with flying saucer things. Also, the killer robot machine (looks like a spider-type thing) is pretty relentlessly chasing good guys and throwing them around. There's really only one death I can remember - one of the saucers flies into a cliff and explodes. Another time when the dad superhero throws soemthing heavy on a bad guy, it shows him later on just stunned, not dead. Nothing else objectionable.

There's a bit of innuendo, but it would go over their heads.
Then again, I find innuendo in everything.

I watched House of Flying Daggers by Zhang Yimou (the guy who directed Hero). Just like in Hero, the scenery was more than lovely. Is China really that magnificent?

Finding Nemo
and Zoolander. Is there more to life than being really really really really really ridiculously good looking?

And Memento. (Or Otnemem) That film rules. Shame C4 is no good for much else.

I saw the second Bridget Jones today. I was a little unimpressed. Mark Como (that god of film critique
) was right about the direction, it was pretty bad. However, the main three were good, even if Bridget was a little too ugly (hey, sorry, I'm a guy).I don't think it was as good as the first, but possibly only because the first was so good. Also, the first Fielding book was better than the second. Company was good too.

 I heard the book was better anyway. I just saw Sleepy Hollow (with Johnny Depp, Christina Ricci, Christopher Lee makes a short appearance)! It was totally awesome and spooookyyyyyyy....

Sleepy Hollow was the only scary movie that ever gave me nightmares. That whitch lady who chains herself to the wall. Ugh!!
I finally saw Kill Bill Vol. 1, cause my friend has On Demand. Friends in the dojo scolded me for waiting so long. It rocked! Although from what I heard I was expecting something more artistic and less Americanized.

 What guy would sit through those movies and read those books .that directs my train of thought to Pride and Prejudice...which directs my thought to Northanger Abbey (I just watched the BBC/A&E movie). Which directs my thought to how Catherine was actually quite pretty, but Mr. Tilney...shudder... Anybody else seen it? Ah yes. Colin Firth and Hugh Grant. That reminds me of The Importance of Being Earnest. Hmm. Rupert Everett was really hot in that movie, but alas he is gay (to my girly dismay!, wow, is that considered poetry?). There were no cucumbers in the market! Oh no! The end of the world! Ok. I think this was really random stream of consciousness... I wonder if they are going to make more Horatio Hornblower movies. Ever seen that series, Janny? Speaking of which...Lydia in P&P is Maria in HH. I prefer her character in P&P.

I've seen it before, but I saw it again: the Truman Show. It's not one of the best movies i've seen, but it gave me something to think about. And I like Jim Carrey.

I used to think that I was living in something like the Truman Show- that I was the only real person and everyone else was an actor or something. I sometimes still think that.

i watched terminator 3 on five last night -
is it me or was that film merely an exercise for arnie to go 'ha ha ha! i have lots of money! look at me waste money on a pointless film! ha ha ha!' -? effects were good, though, and (as usual) arnie's acting was as wooden as a board |
