      <title>Sugar: Good lessons (3.0 stars)</title>
      <link>http://www.blockbuster.com:80/catalog/movieDetails/386184</link>
      <description>I would have liked to use this in my classroom to teach about the Dominican Republic, etc..., but cannot because of the sex scene, alcohol, pornography.  &#xD;
&#xD;
Good lessons, though, about the cultural differences that baseball players face when they come here from DR.</description>

      <title>The Bridge on the River Kwai: The Bridge on the River Kwai Highly Unrealistic! (2.5 stars)</title>
      <link>http://www.blockbuster.com:80/catalog/movieDetails/4463</link>
      <description>I was born in 1943, during WWII. I must have been 14 or 15 when I first saw the movie. Frankly I remembered it as one of the all-time greats and it did sweep the majority of the categories of Academy Awards. As a young teenager I was impressed; above all, "the good guys won"! They blew up the bridge - that  was "cool"! But seeing the film again now, I must re-assess. The acting, cinematography, etc. were great, but the premise of the story and the lack of character of the leading characters were too extreme; unbelievable and actually disgracing to any real officers. As a number of realists have noted, if any colonel collaborated with the enemy like Nicholson did, his "regular grunts" would have quietly eliminated him early on. Those honorable soldiers would have built the worst possible bridge they could have gotten away with and still survived the POW camp -- including "innocently enough" sabotaging the bridge.</description>

      <title>Far From the Madding Crowd: Far from the Madding Crowd (3.0 stars)</title>
      <link>http://www.blockbuster.com:80/catalog/movieDetails/11271</link>
      <description>Well worth it for female viewers who love that Jane Austenish kinda costume drama. But for guys, even the hypnotic hotness of Julie Christie won't keep it from seeming all a bit slow, and dreary.</description>

      <title>Stephen Hawking and the Theory of Everything: Impressive But Inscrutable (3.0 stars)</title>
      <link>http://www.blockbuster.com:80/catalog/movieDetails/393507</link>
      <description>The photographs of Steven Hawking and the comments about his accomplishments are very impressive, but the content of his studies and findings and theories are well beyond my ability to comprehend.</description>

      <title>Point Break: I'm pretty sure this is film illustrates surfers as well as anything I have seen (2.0 stars)</title>
      <link>http://www.blockbuster.com:80/catalog/movieDetails/27106</link>
      <description>I used to surf off the coast of Southern California, the islands of Oahu and Maui.  Hard core surfers are, for the most part, a little bit insane.  I have never had a problem with a borderline, adrenaline junky FBI  agent  persuing someone like Bodhi.  The irony involved in Bodhi's name and what he believes in is tremendous fun because it just helps to illustrate what a bunch of hypocrites we are.  It is possibly the most truthful film about us as males I have ever seen.  I have always thought this is at least a 5 star film.</description>

      <title>G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra: Too much (2.5 stars)</title>
      <link>http://www.blockbuster.com:80/catalog/movieDetails/369602</link>
      <description>Best way to sum up this movie was too much.  I love action and I love science ficture and I love special effects, but this movie never lets up.  Way too many flashbacks and too good guys who just happen to have history with bad guys.  I'm glad I saw the movie, but a little acting among the special effects would be nice.</description>

      <title>That Was the GDR: A History of the Other Germany: History made boring (1.5 stars)</title>
      <link>http://www.blockbuster.com:80/catalog/movieDetails/455049</link>
      <description>This was a good idea that just didn't go anywhere. It is very long and the segments are heavy in political retrospectives that need a bit more clarification for non-German audiences. (And I am a German speaker). Perhaps it came too soon after the Wiedervereinigung--perhaps a documentary now would provide more context.</description>
