Within in the lst week I have watched man many movies. Some good, some bad. Here is a rundown of what you should either watch or avoid.

First, I got to watch Hellboy today on DVD. It was my first time seein it becase it always looked like it was going to be corny. I was surprised, however, and ended up enjoying it. It is not a great movie but entertaining and has many appealing characters in it. On a scale of one to ten, I give it a 8.

I watched Catwoman. I would never pay to watch this movie but my friend said she woul pay so I went. While it started out ok, once Halle Berry turned into Catwoman, it got cornier and cornier. Every time she jumped it would be some disgusting special effects. Plus, Sharon Stone was one of the most boring villians ever. 4 out of 10.

Bourne Supremacy. This film continues right from the Bourne Identity. Altough this is a good thing, I found it difficult to remember people or events from the first film. This movie is just as intelligent and entertaining as the first, but lacks the suspense from the Bourne Identity. 7 out of 10.

I, Robot. All I have to say is wow. I like all of Will Smith's movies, but this one is close to the top, right behind Independence Day. Action-packed, funny, and stylish. This movie shows a more creative future than Minority Report. 9 out of 10.

Hero. This is the new Jet Li film, which is coming into theater here in a few weeks. I bought the one from China on DVD yesterday as it came out a long time ago. I think most people should just do that if they can. The fighting is masterful in this movie, but the actual story is confusing as hell at first and actually put me to sleep the first time I watched it. I watched what I missed today, and although I like it now more than I did last night, I was still disappoited. Now, I'll probably onlywach the fight scenes. 7 out of 10.

Collateral. I saw this on Saturday. This movie is just amazing. IMO, Vincent (Tom Cruise), is the coolest bad guy since Tony Montana. Tough, smart, witty, funny, and nasty with the guns, Tom Cruise really makes this character work so well. With the help of good performances from Jamie Fox, Jada Pinkett, and a very thrilling story, this movie earns a 10. The last couple of Cruise's films have been his best, this one and the Last Samurai. I can't wait for his next movie.

Last movie I saw was I'Robot and I thought it was a great movie. When I went in to see it, I thought it would at least be an Ok movie with cheesy scenes. but it was much better than I expected.

Movies I wouldn't mind seeing is the new Denzel Washington Movie(The Something Canidate) and Collateral. both movies look great IMO.

Hero looks great, I can't wait to check that out.

Thanks for all the reviews! I was on the fence about Hellboy, but I might rent it for sure now :)

I had seen Collateral also and I thought it was a fantastic movie, I recommend every one reading this to go see that movie, it is well worth your money. Tom Cruise is a great actor and he plays his role so well, Jamie Fox had also given a great performance in this movie. You would usually expect Jamie Fox to do comedy but he was very serious in this movie. Jamie Fox played an average man caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. 10 out of 10, this movie deserves an award.

I had not seen the Bourne Supremacy because I have not seen the original film. I will try to rent the first film and then I would go to the theatres to watch the sequel. I guess the movie is not that bad according to your reviews.

I had thought that I Robot would be a cheesy Sci-Fi flick like Men In Black, if what you are saying is true then I might consider paying money to watch this movie. I remember watching a T.V. special on the "Making Of The I Robot Motorcycle" and it looked incredible. I will try and go see this film.
