INTO THE WILD

It was good. It was very, very long. This is a true story about a boy who took his possessions and went to live in the wilderness. His mother and father never payed any attention to him. His mom was a real nice person. But they had him out of wedlock. It was hard on him. So he went to Alaska to live. He lived in a bus, and he'd take off from there. He went down the rapids to Mexico. He finally starved to death. They found his body on the bus. At least I think that's where they found his body. I had to leave to get to dinner. It was a very long movie. There was an old man who wanted to adopt him, cause he didn't have any family either. But he decided to go to Alaska. He'd hunt for food and it got so scarce, and he ate wild berries. He had a book to tell him which berries to eat. And he didn't know what he was doing, and he poisoned himself. He died in the wilds alone. So what did he gain? Nothing. He just made his family unhappy.

THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES

That was the worst damn movie I've ever seen. Everyone thought he was a hero. That he robbed from the rich and gave to the poor. And I'll tell you what, Jesse James was just for Jesse James--not for anyone else. Casey Affleck played Robert Ford and he wanted to be part of the gang, but then he found out what for kind of killer Jesse James was. He shot him. Jesse James was no hero. This was the worst movie I've ever seen.

AMERICAN GANGSTER

It was good. I tell you what, he was a dope smuggler and he got his dope from the Viet Cong and they paid the American boys to smuggle it on the plane. And they brought it back in the coffins of the boys. I didn't like that. It turned me off. I couldn't believe that they did something like that and showed it in a movie. Denzel Washington was good. He took over harlem. Russel Crowe was good. It's a good movie, but I just didn't like what they did with the dope.

MICHAEL CLAYTON

George Clooney was great. It is a real mind boggler. You can't miss a thing, or you miss everything. It is back lived, all that crap. It just wasn't my kind of a movie. I thought with George
Clooney it would be good, but it wasn't my kind of movie. Unless you like that kind of mind boggler, which some people do. I can't keep up. I give it a 6. I didn't think it was that good.

THE KINGDOM

Eh. I really didn't like it. Jamie Foxx played in it. Jennifer Gordon was good as always. I wouldn't rent it and I wouldn't go see it again. I give it a 61/2. I just didn't care for it.

EASTERN PROMISES

It was okay. It was about the Russian mafia. I don't like the Russian mafia, so you know. There was a lot of action. It was...eh. It was a real thriller. Naomi Watts played in it. She was a London midwife. It's not for children.

THE BRAVE ONE

This one stars Jody Foster. Her boyfriend gets killed and she gets revenge. They were walking hand in hand through central park and these thugs jumped out and killed him. She gets revenge all right. I give
it a 9. She did her thing. She taught them their lesson.

THE GAME PLAN

It was a great movie. It had everything-- a lot of laughter,
a lot of sadness. You'll love it. I give it a nine. It stars Duane "The Rock" Johson. He was great. The kids would like it. His daughter was adorable. She suddenly came to his door and it turned his whole world around. And would you believe, all those football palyers and there wasn't a bad word in that movie! Can you believe it?

DRAGON WARS

Another flop. Don't go see it. Lots of action with dragons, but it just wasn't up to par. Don't take the kids, it would give them nightmares. I give it a 5. There was a lot of violence.

DEATH SENTENCE

This was with Kevin Bacon and Kelly Preston. It had lots of violence. Don't take the kids. It was real violent with lots of killing. It was awful. I give it a 7 1/2.

SEPTEMBER DAWN

Did you know that happened here in Arkansas (in Harrison) in 1870 or 1885? People on a wagon train, going through there, were killed. 120 of them. Brigham Young, he was a bigamist you know. You know he ONLY HAD 28 wives. They run him out of Missouri. He decided to get revenge. He decided to get the Indians to start the killing, but the Indians quit. It was a real good historical movie. But gory. Don't take the kids. There's a statue in Harrison. I give it an 8 1/2.

3:10 TO YUMA

Russell Crowe played a marvelous part in this one. And I don't like Russell Crowe! He's a prisoner being taken to Yuma prison. All kind of cowboy stuff happens. You can't tell if he's a bad guy or a good guy, because he can be good when he wants to be. Christian Blade is in it. She was good too. I give it a 9 1/2. It was really good!

STARDUST

I would rent this one instead of going to see it in the theater. It was funny and a little bit exciting. It was a fairy tale thing. I can't remember much about the story. Robert De Niro was good. I give it an 8.

NO RESERVATIONS

This stars Catherine Zeta-Jones and Abigail Breslin. It will tear at your heart. It will make you laugh. It was really a great story. Go see it.

UNDERDOG

This was a cute movie. And funny. If you want to see something light-hearted, go see it. He changed his clothes like Superman. The beagle was great.

INVASION

Don't even rent this one! This was the stupidest damn movie I've ever seen. It was about people from outer space. You couldn't tell who was who. Nicole Kidman was great. And the other little guy. But it was a dumb movie. I hate a dumb movie. I give it a 5.

THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM

I give this one a 9. It was pretty good. Lots of action and suspense. I think it was the best one they have put out. Lots of action.

HOT ROD

This was goofy. Stupid too. It's about a kid trying to jump over 10 buses. It was just a dumb movie. I give it a 5.

RUSH HOUR 3

This is a good one. It stars Chris Tucker and the Chinese guy, Jackie Chan. They go into this place and Chris Tucker says, "I'll take the girls." He pretends to be their new designer and walks into their dressing room and tells them to take their clothes off. And they took off all their clothes! I nearly fell off my seat. They are really kooky. I liked it. I give it an 8 1/2. I could have given it a 9.

HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX

It was fantastic! Go see it. We all enjoyed it-me, your mom, your dad, Sheila. The kids are growing up. They had some bitchy little woman who took over Hogwarts, and she just thought she was the best thing that ever was. You really wanted to kill her. She finally got her dues in the end. It was really good. Guess who was in it a lot? The redheaded kids-- the twins-- they were in it a lot. And their sister. She's really grown up, and the boys must have been 18. They are little schemers. Them boys are something else. I'm looking forward to seeing the next two.
