[EVERYONE'S A CRITIC]

Your movie reviews



'The Bourne Identity'

>> "A far-fetched story, though very entertaining at times. (Matt) Damon and (Franka) Potente (have) great chemistry. Exciting car chase and must-see assassin-through-window scene!!! Grade: B." -- "2 lococritics" at wall808@aol. com

>> "Intriguing, suspenseful, action packed! I highly recommend this one for all who like their action heroes fast, quick-witted and unsuspecting. Kept me on the edge of my seat!" -- Jennifer Lehua Barber, local entertainer

>> "Matt Damon did not disappoint in his recent film ... (however), one thing about the film troubled me ... (his character) could not commit himself to murder the politician because there happened to be a doe-eyed child placed on his father's chest ... yet (he) managed ... to leave a trail of police corpses, not to mention a few unlucky pedestrians, as he searches for his identity. ... Oh well, at least the fight scenes looked convincing." -- Marguerite Nozaki, UH-Manoa graduate

'Scooby-Doo'

>> "This movie does not let you down. It's a larger-than-life leap from the small screen to the big screen. A colorful mystery. A must-see!" -- Jennifer Lehua Barber, local entertainer

>> "Better check what's in those Scooby Snacks, guys; no trace of wit, inspiration or intelligence. ... Jinkies, is it summer already?" -- Jordan Macadangdang, college student

'Windtalkers'

>> "Less about its subject, more about the battle for Saipan. Nic Cage and co-stars do the best they can with what they have to work with in this John Woo-directed action story. Grade: C+." -- "2 lococritics" at wall808@aol.com

>> "Bring earplugs!!! This one is 20 percent dialogue and 80 percent hand grenade, bomb explosions and rapid gunfire. Even with the gunfire, the movie was slow." -- Jennifer Lehua Barber, local entertainer

>> "Must-see for people who want to see a war movie that tells an unknown story that doesn't sugarcoat things for the PC crowd." -- Wendell Hong, janitor
