Okay so I think I spelled the last one wrong lol....

the only reason these three movies are grouped together is because they are the three I've seen most recently...


SFS - I thought this movie was hilarious....Billy Bob Throton easily has the most condesending voice I've ever heard...and the way he delivers his lines in this movie is perfect..... I don't know why they did away with this movie in the theaters near me so quickly...but I saw it twice....and loved it.... not much on plot or anything...but it's pretty good if you're just looking for a laugh

Saw III- One of the main things I enjoyed about the first two movies was how unpredictable the plot twist was....I haven't had time to really digest this movie yet...but one thing that left me really unsatisfied was that I saw this twist from the beginning of the damn movie.....and that dissapointed me greatly..... If you liked the first two....you should probably see this one....

The Prestiege - My favorite of the three....I thought this movie looked excellent in previews...and it didn't disapoint in theaters....Great movie overall......even got 4 stars from the critics!.....I reccomend this to everyone here....


Well...thanks for spending some time reading my opinions on these three movies...hope you all come back and respond...

After getting my feelings hurt on The Ring 2, I knew better than to try to watch the Grudge, glad I missed that shit...

I thought Saw I was amazing...I figured the plot twist for Saw II pretty quickly, but still thought it was as good as a sequal to an amazing movie could be...I think I'll catch Saw III in Dizzle vision...LoL...

Now the Prestige, I think I'll take you up on that, and let that be the next one me and the boy catch...Great cast in that one, I'm looking forwards to it...Thanks for the reviews L.G., they are appreciated...

Excellent reviews. I'm starting to get into Billy Bob Throton, so I'll have to check out SFS. I figured it wouldn't have much of a plot, but it'd still be funny.

The Prestige and that other one with Edward Norton I wanna see. I think it's called the Illusionist or something.

CS, why the hell would you waste your money going to see the Grudge 2? The first one wasn't even that great. lol

I guess that makes sense. I heard the Japanese version is pretty freaky. I only saw the first one because the original movie me and a buddy wanted to see was sold out and there was nothing else... lol

I just watched Saw III...It was not as good as the first, but better than the seccond one I thought...Didn't get that big curve I'd come to expect from the first one, but there was a decent twist, and some very good closure for the series...

School for Scoundrels - Great classic British Movie. Will see the recent remake, which is probably nothing like it, but with the cast I expect great things.

Yawn III - About as good as Yawn and Yawn II. Predictable drek from the first to the last. When I saw the first one, and saw the gun in the "dead guy's" hand, and where his "wound" was, I knew the whole story, and told the person next to me how it would end. I even got close to his motive, though I expected the wrong disease.

The Prestige - This was a good movie with a capable cast, but there is a better one out on DVD soon, if you like movies about Magicians. They portrayed Tesla a little too stable, but the approach to the ethics of cloning in the film really give you some brain candy. I honestly thought The Illusionist was far better than the Prestige though it lacked a strong issue to tackle, and the bad guy acts a bit like a stereotype. Ed Norton and Jessica Biel have an undeniable screen presence superior acting ablity, the story behind the Illusionist is more romantic and simply put the effects and costuming are far more convincing. From the first ten minutes of the Illusionist, you realize you are going for a ride...
