Deck the halls with boughs of laughter -- the Griswolds are back! Hapless Clark (Chevy Chase), exasperated Ellen (Beverly D'Angelo) and their ever-changing kids (Juliette Lewis and Johnny Galecki) gear up for Christmas in this Vacation installment that became a holiday classic. As usual, all the good intentions in the world can't save them from disaster ... or Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid), whose unannounced visit throws the house into further disarray.

Very nice movie, better than I expected. Despite the name, the story is not really about ballet, but about unselfishness and overcoming adversity. A sweet film, but not sappy. The only fault I found with it was not being able to hear or catch all the dialogue. Captions would have been very helpful.

3 1/2 Stars

This is a sweet little movie. A good one for all to watch, especially tween girls. 3 1/2 stars.

Super Troopers

Super Troopers

After stumbling on a drug smuggling ring, they plan to make a high-profile bust, but the rival police of Earlville are out to steal the glory in this irreverent comedy.

With new writers to save the day, this season finally starts stepping away from the "good guy, bad guy" formula that the first two seasons overused. New characters are introduced, plot twists are added along with more action, comedy and character development. Prince John is by far the best addition to the series, but the rest of the story doesn't fall by comparison. The other new characters fill in the gaping holes left from season two a lot better than I expected. This season could have been a complete mess, but even though the story branches out in different directions, it all comes together in the end. Just give it a chance and you'll understand what I mean. I highly recommend this season for all of the fans who were frustrated at the end of season two. The new writing staff really makes a difference. You'll see.


3 Stars

Throughout the entire series Gisbourne has been hinted at having a conscience. Its brought out more in the later half of this final season. True some of the new characters werent pleasing to get to know, even in their brief appearances, it was decently written. I was just hoping that there would be more to it that the way the series got ended. Is there even a season 4 to look forward to, information that I havent been able to locate. Yet.

2 Stars

The new season of Robin Hood has turned about to be a big disappointment. While I was looking forward to it, I think it is not as good as any of the other two season. The two new female characters are just plain annoying. They tried to replace Djaq and Marian with Kate and I think that was a big failure. Gisbourne's sister, Isabella, I cannot stand. They would have been better to stop the show at the end of season two. The only real good thing about season three is the long-awaited Toby Stephens as Prince John. He adds much to the show and he is the only reason I'm continuing to watch the show. The show has lost a lot, when Djaq, Will, and Marian left the show. It is definitely not as good as it used to be.
