The Contender (2005)
Reality Shows the Way they Should Be.
'The Contender' is a show with a genuine reality to it. It doesn't try to create drama- there's enough of that in the ring. It just follows a bunch of lower-class boxers trying to make it in the business. Basically, looking to be the next Rocky. With Sly Stallone and Sugar Ray Leonard training, along with other professionals, they help these guys try to make a dream come true. In the end, the final two boxers will compete for $1,000,000. This show is possibly the greatest reality show in a long, long time. You have the humble, young boxers, like Ishe or Juan, and you have the cocky punks, like Ahmad. It can sometimes be the fight between good and evil, but this time, you don't know who's gonna win. This brings all the entertainment possible: Fighting, shouting, and human emotion. I like it, and so will you.
Boston Public (2000)
One of the Most Underrated Shows in History
This show died of poor ratings, which were caused by poor advertising by FOX. The show had deep, strong plots, but knew when to use comedy. Chi McBride's acting was impeccable. He used the correct amount of drama, but never overacted. Despite a seemingly ever-changing line-up of teachers, the fantastic ensemble acting is something to watch for. The dialog between them was realistic. Advertisements made it seem like every show revolved around boobs. But that's simply not true. The actors playing students and parents nailed the roles down pat. David E. Kelley apparently knows the average school in this nation. He is one of the most underrated creators in this country. Ally McBeal, Boston Public, The Practice, Boston Legal. Hell, the man put Boston on television's map. Very convincing, highly watchable but, unfortunately, not very memorable. Quite a shame. Pray for early DVD release.
Sweet 15 (1990)
Pretty Good. Oh wait, no it wasn't.
This movie was horrible. Some of the most god-awful performances I have ever seen. You could tell that they were giving good effort, but I couldn't help but pay attention to the horrible dated clothes and the fact that the main character was dating a 30 year old "boy". Okay, so I may have been a little harsh on the performance scale, but it was so poorly done and so corny, that I, I...I'm sorry, I can no longer speak of it. It is too, too, terrible.
Better Than: 'Rubberface' starring Jim Carrey and an ugly girl.
Worse Than: 'Rocky V' Starring Sylvester Stallone and an ugly dog.
4/10
The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)
I love this film!
Oh my god! This is single handedly one of the best movies of all time.
The creativity in it is truly fantastic. Wes Anderson is a genius. Fantastic performance by fantastic actors. I love it! I love all of it.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002)
Big fat greek piece of crap
Oh my god. This movie sucks ass. Jeez, I can't believe people liked this. What a dissapointment. I thought I was seeing one of the best ethnic movies since The Producers (we'll talk later). I can't believe she was nominated for an oscar. Crap, crap, crap.
Club Paradise (1986)
funny...I think
From some viewpoints it was funny. Robin Williams and Peter O'Toole were funny. Eugene Levy and Rick Moranis were funny. Just as a whole it only sort of funny. It's very hard to explain. You know what I mean, though. Right?
The Breakfast Club (1985)
Good teen movie
TBC is a great film for young adults and adults who saw it as young adults. It has such great moments and really in the end makes you leave the theater with a smile on your face. This movie was all of these actors best movie. But only one had a good enough carrer for people to still talk about him and not mention TBC.
The Wedding Singer (1998)
Best Sandler Movie
Adam Sandler has been in some pretty funny movies(The Waterboy, Airheads).
He has also been in some pretty bad ones(Little Nicky). But this is probably his best(or at least his funniest). He is a comic genius who's comedy is funny. He has also shown that he is a good actor. But he combines both skills in this movie. Best Sandler movie ever.
Batman Returns (1992)
Better than the original
Once every decade, there comes a sequel that's better than the original. Usually, it's a big blockbuster hit sequel to a big blockbuster hit. This is no different. Best Warner Bros. sequel(Except for Matrix). Best supporting actor in a sequel(Danny Devito). Best sequel ever.
Sealab 2021 (2000)
Funny. Period.
After hearing many comments on the show, it makes me angry to hear such backlash from something that is so funny! People, sit down, drink your soda, and laugh! I know I did, and I'm a better person for doing so. By the way, while you're at it, watch Aqua Teen Hunger Force, The Brak Show, and other hilarious shows on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network.
