    Wow... I Am Appalled. But, Strangely, Entertained! ABSOLUTELY Not For Kids Under 18!

    ... Oh... my... God! This was the single, inexplicably raunchiest film I have ever laid eyes on. Half the movie I laughed because it was too rediculous and offensive not to laugh. But, readers, this ...

      ... Definitely an Improvement.

      I thought this second installment was okay. The acting was most certainly improved, and the direction was more notable and not laughable like last time. Although, something just didn't fell ...

        Hilarious, Purely Delightful Show Has Great Tips for School!

        This is a highly educational, great feeling show with memorable characters and lines. The episodes are based on how kids should go through school life. Awesome. PARENTS: there are some comic mishaps ...

          Too Horrifying for Kids; Too Horrible for Adults

          I am appalled; Jim Carrey, I hope you were tricked into doing this movie. I am an avid fan of Mr. Carrey's work, but this is just disastorous. It's too terrifying for children (I saw kids ...

          Words Cannot Describe How Entertaining this Film is!

          Now, I am not a fan of the Star Trek series... at all. In fact, I don't even like this series. But this looked like a new start for the series; frankly, it looked awesome. So when I went, I was ...

            I loved this movie far more than I thought I would. I was expecting a dumb disaster flick; but what I got was the best disaster film since Armageddon. It was funny, deep, scary, and had absolutely ...

            Magnificent! A Wonderful Animated Accomplishment!

            This is a spectacular film; very fun and funny. I enjoyed it highly, and I'm almost 18! This has some great messages about friendship abnd loyalty (never leaving a friend behind). Parents: ...

              Intriguing but Poorly Executed.

              This is a good movie, but it could have been so much better. This could have been an excellent if not off-beat sci-fi war comedy. All of the cast memebers are good, especially Clooney and McGregor, ...

                Simply Put: Disapointing.

                I was quite disapointed in this sci-fi flick. The action wasn't bad, but some of it was disturbing. Bruce Willis wasn't as witty as usual. Bummer. PARENTS: There is some sex stuff and ...

                  Horiffically Hilarious! Fun, Funny, and Scary!

                  This is a great, original comedy. It made me laugh out-loud many times. But it was VERY scary with lots of zombie violence and gore, the type you'd see in 28 Days Later or Dawn of the Dead. If ...

                  What Starts Out as an Alien-Esque Sci-Fi Horror Turns Out to Be a Sci-Fi Masterpiece with Novel Twists and Turns!

                  I loved this movie; it was fantastic! It was terrifying, action-packed, and the acting was fantastic. And the twists; they blew my mind. I saw a few of them coming, but the big ones were the ones ...

                  Fantastic Movie! Fun for (Almost) All Ages! Very Violent, Though.

                  I love this movie. It is entertaining, funny, and overall enthralling. I highly reccomend it. The action is fun and the acting is great. Yes, it is long, but it's worth it. PARENTS: this is a ...
