Movies List for 2000

The Bone Collector (1999)seen 8 Jan 00 · 8 out of 10

Effective thriller, saw it in the theatre.

Fright Night (1985)seen 8 Jan 00 · 7 out of 10

STAR Movies showed this one late at night.  Good, fun horror movie.

The Grimm Brothers' Snow White (a.k.a. Snow White - A Tale of Terror) (1996)seen 9 Jan 00 · 6 out of 10

An unusual kind of Snow White movie, this is a violent horror movie and is supposedly close to it's source material.

Lake Placid (1999)seen 15 Jan 00 · 6 out of 10

Saw this in the theatre.  Not bad.  David E. Kelley wrote it, so the dialogues often look like they're taken right out of an Ally McBeal episode.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)seen 16 Jan 00 · 6 out of 10

Watched this on STAR Movies.

Blue Streak (1999)seen 26 Jan 00 · 7 out of 10

Saw it in the theatre.  I thought it was a lot of fun and I'd definitely like to see it again.

Ghostbusters (1984)seen 5 Feb 00 · 8 out of 10

Like Ghostbusters II, I saw this movie long ago on video.  Now I saw it again when AXN showed it.

The World Is Not Enough (2000)seen 12 Feb 00 · 6 out of 10

I saw this in the theatre.  Apart from the action scenes I didn't really like it.  Come to think of it I liked GoldenEye better than any Bond movie that was released after that!

Excessive Forceseen 19 Feb 00 · 7 out of 10

I saw this on STAR Movies.  So some of the more excessively violent scenes were censored.  But I remember this was a good movie, and this is one I'd like to see again.

House II: The Second Storyseen 20 Feb 00 · 5 out of 10

I don't really remember much of this movie, except that I saw it on STAR Movies.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (1988)seen 20 Feb 00 · 9 out of 10

I saw this in the theatre many many years ago.  Now I watched it on STAR Movies.  It's a fantastic movie.

Ruthless People (1989)seen 8 Mar 00 · 8 out of 10

A funny comedy - saw it on STAR Movies.

End of Days (1999)seen 16 Mar 00 · 7 out of 10

Effective thriller, saw it in the theatre.  But I must watch it again.

Mackenna's Gold (1969)seen 17 Mar 00 · 6 out of 10

Watched on AXN.

Circuitry Man (1989)seen 18 Mar 00 · 6 out of 10

Pretty weird futuristic action movie.  Watched on AXN.

The Big Lebowski (1998)seen 19 Mar 00 · 5 out of 10

Watched this on STAR Movies.  There were blank spaces inserted throughout the dialogue to eliminate profanity.  There were some funny scenes in the movie but overall I didn't think it was that good.

Dangerous Minds (1995)seen 31 Mar 00 · 7 out of 10

Watched on STAR Movies.

Money Talks (1997)seen 1 Apr 00 · 8 out of 10

Watched on STAR Movies.  Actually the movie started on 1 April, 1:30 AM!!  This was the pre-Rush Hour teaming of Chris Tucker and director Brett Ratner and it's a lot of fun.

Double Team (1997)seen 1 Apr 00 · 8 out of 10

Watched it on AXN that night.  This was the first time I saw the movie properly.  And it's a great action movie.

Maniac Cop 2 (1990)seen 1 Apr 00 · 6 out of 10

Switched over to STAR Movies.  Pretty OK, grim violent thriller.

Pumpkinhead (1988)seen 8 Apr 00 · 6 out of 10

I somehow seem to remember Pumpkinhead II was a lot better.  Anyway I watched this one on AXN and it wasn't particularly scary.

Drive (1996)seen 11 Apr 00 · 9 out of 10

This is a slightly different version of the movie they showed on ZEE Movies.

Shootfighter: Fight to the Death (1992)seen 13 Apr 00 · 5 out of 10

Watched it on ZEE Movies.  Some good action scenes.

The Tattooed Dragon (1974)seen 14 Apr 00 · 4 out of 10

Another dubbed Chinese martial-arts wonder.  Ridiculous stuff starring Wang Yu.  STAR Movies showed it.

The Borrowers (1997)seen 16 Apr 00 · 6 out of 10

Nicely made movie but I wouldn't want to see it again.  Watched on STAR Movies.

Pretty Woman (1990)seen 19 Apr 00 · 6 out of 10

Watched it on STAR Movies.  Well, this is just not my type of movie.

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes 3 (1990)seen 1 May 00 · 6 out of 10

Overacted comedy, funny at times, but unfunny other times.  STAR Movies showed it.

Stuart Little (1999)seen 6 May 00 · 8 out of 10

Saw it in the theatre.  _

The Green Mile (2000)seen 15 May 00 · 9 out of 10

One of the best birthdays I've ever had!  Saw it in the theatre that night after NIIT class.  This was a touching and at the end, a pretty depressing movie!

Crimson Tide (1995)seen 18 May 00 · 7 out of 10

STAR Movies showed it.  Flashy action movie.

Death Wishseen 19 Jun 00 · 7 out of 10

Watched on AXN.  Missed the first fifteen minutes.

Stephen King's The Night Flier (1997)seen 25 Jun 00 · 7 out of 10

Pretty good horror movie.  The last scene especially was very good.

I watched this in the theatre.

The Hitcher (1986)seen 29 Jul 00 · 7 out of 10

Dead Calm (1988)seen 3 Aug 00 · 6 out of 10

Watched on HBO.

Lost in Space (1998)seen 6 Aug 00 · 7 out of 10

Watched on HBO.  Entertaining.

Blade Runner (1982)seen 19 Aug 00 · 7 out of 10

Have to see it again to judge properly.

Lethal Weapon 2 (1989)seen 26 Aug 00 · 6 out of 10

Watched on TV (don't remember which channel).  But I didn't think this was very good.

Shanghai Noon (2000)seen 26 Aug 00 · 6 out of 10

Watched in theatre.  If you really want to see a Jackie Chan movie you can do a lot better than this one.  But it isn't bad and there's some nice scenery.

Kindergarten Cop (1990)seen 8 Sep 00 · 7 out of 10

I watched this on tape a very long time back.  This time I saw it on HBO.

A Perfect Murder (1998)seen 12 Sep 00 · 9 out of 10

Watched on HBO.

M:I-2 (Mission: Impossible 2) (2000)seen 1 Oct 00 · 8 out of 10

Fantastic action but overall, if you want to see a John Woo movie you could do better.

Darkman (1990)seen 8 Oct 00 · 8 out of 10

Watched on AXN.

Body Snatchers (1994)seen 12 Oct 00 · 7 out of 10
