Hostage, My Name Is Modesty & A Lot Like Love

Stephen's Short Video Reviews

Hostage 

        Action (V). Bruce Willis  & Michelle Allman  2005

        City cop becomes Chief of Police in quiet town, only to have it turn noisy. A bit long at just under two hours, but justified by some complexity.

        Moral of the story: Just once I would like to see what happens to the main character after they have saved their family. How much trouble do they get themselves into because they have broken the law and or have no proof of what the bad guys did?

        Rating: Eye popper

        Rent it? Yes

        Buy it? Yes


My Name Is Modesty

        Action (V). Alexandra Staden  & Nikolaj Coster-Waldau  2003

        A casino is invaded. Slow in places.

        Moral of the story: Everything depends on where the ball stops.

        Rating: Average

        Rent it? Yes

        Buy it? No


A Lot Like Love 

        Comedy. Ashton Kutcher & Amanda Peet 2005

        Girl has boy, boy meets girl, boy meets girl, boy meets girl, boy meets girl. Slow in places. Comedy rating 1.57

        Moral of the story: Some people just don't know it when they see it.

        Rating: Average

        Rent it? Yes
