Miss Congeniality [Deluxe Edition] [DVD] [2000]

Customer Rating

Very Funny

on September 15, 2007

I love watching Sandra Bullock, and Miss Congeniality is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Her transformation from Gracie Hart, ugly duckling FBI agent, to Gracie Lou Freebush, beautiful swan Miss United States pageant contestant is hilarious. Michael Caine's reaction to her appearance when he first sees her is great. He is sure there is no way he can turn her into a feminine woman, especially not in time for the pageant. As a consultant for the pageant, he takes on the challenge, and what he does to her is amazing. The scenes where she is being waxed, pulled, brushed, and improved are funny. You can almost feel her pain! When she exits the airplane hangar, my favorite part occurs when she looks gorgeous then slips and almost falls on her bottom. Benjamin Bratt, as her partner Eric, has a great reaction which I enjoyed. How could he not be infatuated with her after all those changes? When she chants, "You think I'm sexy, you want to date me," I laughed and laughed. I can watch this movie over and over again (and I have) and still laugh at my favorite parts (like when the contestants drank her water for her talent competition, when she dove off the stage onto the man with the gun cigarette lighter... there are too many parts to mention.) The actors were great, the plot was funny, and I think I'll go watch it again right now!

I would recommend this to a friend!

Premonition

on September 11, 2007

I have enjoyed watching Sandra Bullock in every movie she has made, and Premonition is no exception. It was a great mystery, not at all confusing to me. As the story line continued and we learned more about what was really going on, I was hoping each time she woke up that her husband would be alive. Right down until the final minutes when she attempts to change the past and save him and we learn that it was actually her fault he died because she told him to turn around, I was rooting that the ending would turn out happy. After the crash is reshown for the last time, I just expected her to wake up one more time and see him in the bed. The story just proves that we cannot change the past. I believe her character had a true power to see the future, but she was at the mercy of something she could not change. I enjoyed the story and the acting and the surprise ending which actually brought some happiness to the final situation. I will be adding this to my DVD collection.

Shooter [WS] [DVD] [2007]

Confusing

on September 9, 2007

There are several male actors that I love to watch because of their looks and/or their acting, and I will usually buy any movie that they are in. Mark Wahlberg is one of these actors for me, so I was excited when Shooter was available on DVD. Fortunately, I decided to rent it first before buying it. I liked the actors, the plot, and the action, but Mark Wahlberg spoke so softly and often slurred or mumbled his words that I had trouble understanding what he was saying. And a lot of the dialogue was in military jargon - codes, numbers, abbreviations - and I had no idea what they were talking about. I started the movie over a few times and turned up my volume to see if it helped which it didn't. Then I finally changed the setup to include subtitles and watched the whole movie while I read them. That is the only way I could understand what the characters were saying which is annoying. Good actors and good action are not enough to make a 4 star movie, and Shooter proves it. I would watch it again but I won't buy it.

I would recommend this to a friend!
