Radio

This is just one great movie about how people should care, but to be honest we don't.
Rails and Ties (2007)  This is a movie with an intricate set of circumstances and relationships. It's a movie worth a see.
Raise Your Voice [2004]

I'm a sucker for triumph over adversity movies. I love happy endings. An enjoyable movie for me.
Rambo (2008)  Extremely violent. Better than Rambo II and III, but not as good as First Blood. Nice ending.
Ratatouille (2007) It's a good animated movie, but not that great.
Reckoning, The (2004)

Paul Bettany's performance is meritorious. If you are looking for a decent movie this could be the one.
Recruit, The (2003)
This movie never really puts it all together. Bits and pieces are good, but the story is weak.
Redeemer (2002)
Based on a true story, I found this movie somewhat unbelievable. It was slow and not well acted.
Rendition (2007)  Not a horror but a very scary movie considering this kind of thing actually happens. Worth a look.
Renegade [2004]
Bad computer graphics that went on way too long
Rescue Dawn (2007) Based on the true story of German-born American Dieter Dengler. Slow but also interesting.
Resistance (2006) War movie about a US pilot that goes down in Belgium in WW2 and is rescued by the resistance.
Road To Perdition (2002)
Some powerful acting by Tom Hanks and Paul Newman. I never felt drawn in by this movie.
Rumor Has It [2005]
Saved by the few lessons this movie has interwoven into it, and it is reasonably fun to watch.
Run, Fat Boy, Run (2008)  Some very funny moments and it entertains and that's what good movies are about.
Rundown, The (2003)
Just a shallow action flick, it has enough twists and humour to make it enjoyable entertainment.
Scorpion King
Are you in the mood for a senseless bit of entertainment, then take this one out just for the fun of it.
Seraphim Falls (2007) Touted as the best western of 2007 - it isn't!
7 Seconds
Only if you really need a movie and have seen everything else.
Shake Hands With The Devil (2007)  F ollows the story of Canadian General Romeo Dallaire. Canadians should see it.
Shooter (2007)  Very much in the Jason Bourne genre. High action and very entertaining.
Simone
In my opinion it's not really anything
Snow Angels [2008]  This one of the most depressing movies we have seen. Leave it on the shelf.
Spy Kids 3 D
Star Dust Pure fairy tale so it has to have a good ending.
Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith

This is the best of the 3 prequels, but it doesn't out do Episodes 4 & 5
Step Up

This is one of those movies the viewers really enjoy more than the critics.
Sum Of All Fears
Surf's Up (2007)

This is a much better movie than Happy Feet. Lots of good lessons about what should be important in life.
Syriana Slow, dark, mixed up, and no ending.
Tears Of The Sun (2003)

The story is weak admittedly, but the scenes and individual situations make this movie.
10 Items or Less [2006] Leave it on the shelf, in spite of Morgan Freeman.
10,000 BC (2008) Just a bad B movie. Leave it on the shelf.
21 (2008) This was an OK movie. Perhaps a little far fetched and too much Black Jack.
There Will Be Blood (2007)  Other than the very good acting of Daniel Day-Lewus, it was slow, tedious, and very unentertaining.
Three Burials Of Melquiades Estrada  Had a good lesson, but a little slow and hard to follow.
3:10 to Yuma (2007)  A great western with some good and bad reversals. Best seen on the big screen.
37 Dresses (2008) Just pure good entertainment especially for an anniversary weekend.
Till Human Voices Wake Up
Time of Favor
If you are interested in the Israeli conflict this movie could interest you
Transformers  Just a fun movie.
Triple X - State Of The Union
Dumb mindless entertainment, not all that bad.
Tropic Thunder (2008)  This movie is more blunder than thunder. There is nothing good to say about Tropic Thunder.
Two Weeks Notice
A light comedy with a very predicable storyline.
