    Default Steve's quickie reviews...6/14/06

    Big Momma 2: A genuine surprise, I though it would suck, it didn't. I enjoyed it. On the Steve rating scale of skip/rent/buy:
    Rating: RENT.

    Firewall: Good, nothing to write home about, but fairly interesting albeit somewhat predictable story. One of those Sunday afternoon movies.
    Rating: RENT.

    But I listen to music on Sunday afternoon!!!!!!!!!:D mOstly classical, or jazz, or Hard Rock, or Blues Rock, or well, you get the wave, but its supposed to be my "smoking jacket" time.

    I only watch movies on Fri or Sat, night, so I am thinking Firewall for Friday???

    Big Momma sucked ass.

    Firewall is worth a rental.

    I must admit, I enjoyed Firewall more than I expected. Basically your typical thriller, nothing more nothing less.

    I'd pass on the firewalk. Just saw it. Wow, how lame can acting get? So unbelievable, terrible acting, annoying people throughout... only redeeming value was a quasi good plot.

    A bunch of no names really besides Ford and Paul Bettany. (Forster and Patrick did ok, I guess)

    If nothing else on on the shelf, and you are bored outta your mind, rent it. But don't say we didn't warn ya ;) On the PC Gamers standard: 57%
