Out Cold (2001)
Haven't I seen this before?
I liked this movie better when it was first made in 1991 and called Ski School. This low budget knock-off has maybe two real laughs, a horrible script, bad acting, and poor direction. It's only redeeming quality is footage of hot dog skiing. Skip this one.
Cherry Falls (1999)
This movie is Rick Rosenthal bad.
Cherry Falls is another Scream/I Know What You Did Last Summer ripoff. The script sounded like it was written by a 9th grader. Flat, boring dialogue make the first 40 minutes of this film seem like an eternity. The directing job has to be the worst of the year. Avoid this one like a Spike Lee film.
Space Cowboys (2000)
Clint Eastwood proves he still has it.
In a summer of disappointments and misfire blockbusters, Clint Eastwood leads a group of geriatric astronauts in one of the few good movies of the season. In Space Cowboys, Eastwood has assembled a cast of Hollywood legends. Donald Sutherland, Tommy Lee Jones, James Garner, and Eastwood comprise Team Daedalus, a group of hotshot former Air Force test pilots summoned out of retirement by NASA to travel to space to fix a damaged Russian satellite. The mission seems simple enough until the team gets to the satellite and realizes something is wrong. At 70, Eastwood is still a strong director and continues to prove that young Hollywood has a long way to go to live up to the veterans.
Bless the Child (2000)
The Omen...done badly.
I have no idea why Hollywood gives the green light to movies like this one. Bless The Child is a ripoff of The Omen, but in this one, the kid isn't evil. Oooh, that's original. Plagiarism is rampant in movies today. Only a handful of filmmakers are creative. This should have been a direct to video release.
