Captivity

A pretty girl does not a good movie make. Outside of the hook of having the hot Elisha Cuthbert , there is nothing but cliche awaiting those who want to see this flick. Oh..and no nudity either. There are three genuinely gross scenes to start out the movie but nothing else after them for the hardcore fan to appreciate. If you want to see a good woman in captivity being terrorized movie, rent the 1986 movie, Fortress, starring Rachel Ward.

Evan Almighty

I like Morgan Freeman and Steve Carell but even they can not make this Ark float. A lack-luster follow up to the genuinely funny Bruce Almighty starring Jim Carrey. Lauren Graham is a likable replacement for Jennifer Aniston but the character goes nowhere. The focus on the production was that it was done all green to protect the environment but I think they forgot it was suppose to be funny too. I wonder if Ester Almighty is on the drawing board for the ladies in the house?

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

This movie is where Harry gets pissed off and takes his destiny in his own hands - or so he thinks. This book is my favorite of the series because it deals with the personal development of all of the main characters - especially Harry. It is a shame that a lot of what made the book great did not make it to the screen but the movie delivers on the darkness and the pain to come for our heros in training. Imelda Staunton brings the dreadful Delores Umbridge to spectacular life and steals the show. David Yates hits a grand-slam home run and I can not wait to see what he brings to us with the next film in the series.
