Jan's Rating: 9
Time: 125 Minutes
Jan's Opinion:
If you love movies about the FBI and CIA, you'll love this one. Mark Wahlberg plays an ex-Marine scout sniper who is asked to return to service to stop an assassination attempt on the President. However, he is doublecrossed by Danny Glover and accused of trying to kill the President. You can see where this story is going so I'll let you watch it to find out how it ends.

You'll Love This Vigilante!
Movie: The Brave One
Jan's Rating: 10
Time: 116 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: My husband and I LOVED this movie! Jodi Foster should receive an Oscar for her role as Erica Bain. She plays a woman who recovers from a vicious attack by a street gang which left her boyfriend dead. She goes from being freightened to death to deciding to buy a gun and get revenge on the bad guys. Clint Eastwood (Make My Day) would be proud to have her on his team!

The Bourne Action Continues...
Movie: The Bourne Ultimatum
Jan's Rating: 9
Time: 110 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: The action goes on with outstanding intrigue as Jason tries to find his identity. If you liked the first two Bourne movies, you'll love this one. My husband and I think the ending leaves an opening for a No. 4 Bourne movie. We hope so!

If You Like Dogs, you'll like Underdog
Movie: Underdog
Jan's Rating: 5
Time: 84 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: Because of the bad reviews I had read, I went to this movie expecting to sleep through it, and because of my low expectations, I ended up enjoying the movie. OK, it's not an Oscar winner, but it's a cute movie, made me laugh, and at the end, wanted to adopt this sweet dog, so give it a chance.

A Camp Your Kids Will Love!
Movie: Daddy Day Camp
Jan's Rating: 5
Time: 1 hr. 33 mins.
Jan's Opinion: This is a cute movie for kids (my 9-yr. old grandson loved it) but adults might tend to yawn now and then. Cuba Gooding, Jr. starts his own summer camp for kids but not without many problems. A successful camp nearby "plays dirty" and tries to run him out of business, but in the end, justice prevails and the good guys win.

Catherine & Abigail Compliment Each Other
Movie: No Reservations
Jan's Rating: 7
Time: 101 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: Enjoyed this movie, a heart-warming story about a woman who has given up on men and made cooking her love and obsession, then she inherits her niece to raise and knows nothing about children. However, she learns fast, thanks to the help of her sexy assistant chef. Any movie with a good ending like this one is worth seeing.

You'll be Dancing in the Aisles!
Movie: Hairspray
Jan's Rating: 10
Time: 107 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: This is such a feel-good movie you'll be dancing on your way out of the theater. John Travolta is hilarious as a woman, but he sure can make his fat woman role dance! Michelle Pfeiffer looks anorexic and has the only nasty role in the movie, but then the gal who plays her daughter isn't very nice either. I was surprised how well Michelle can sing. Queen Latifah was excellent as always. This movie takes place in the early 60's when segregation was still very prevalant, and to show you how far we have become, my 9-year old grandson asked me "what is a negro?", when the word was mentioned in the movie. He enjoyed the movie almost as much as I did and we both highly recommend it!
