Peggy Sue Got Married doesn't belong to classics but still it's decent romantic comedy by Francis Ford Coppola. I don't know why but I love those comedies from eighties thats why I find Peggy Sue more enjoyable than many of todays comedies.
Story is about in midlife woman who is gonna be divorced. She gets small heart attack in school's reunion party. Then she discovers herself back in high school. She knows how her life is going to set so she tries to change her destiny. Quite simple story but it's not played out like typical comedy. It's more like relationship drama.
Kathleen Turner was stunning in her role(I think the Oscar nomination shows that as well). Also I enjoyed Nicolas Cage as officious teenager. I personally think it was one good performance by Cage. You also can see many other todays stars like Joan Allen, Helen Hunt and Jim Carrey.
Good and entertaining flick.

This isn't the future John Connor's mother warned us about. I've hear lot of comments that states that Terminator Salvation might be a big disappointing to a real Terminator fan. Well, I find myself as a real hard Terminator fan and I have to say I wasn't disappointed. Maybe it's because my hopes weren't as high after the third Terminator. To be honest, I was actually pleasantly surprised. And I even didn't let myself worried about this PG13 rating that they are now sticking on to every R-rated action film sequel.
Yes, Salvation stays far behind from the first two films but it is definitely as far ahead from the third one. I liked the story and the apocalyptic atmosphere. Though the CGI might not be as good. The T600 didn't look quite real metal. It didn't feel so threatening anymore.
Now the characters. I was pleasantly surprised by Sam Worthington, almost unknown actor who shadowed Christian Bale in my opinion. When Arnold Wchwarzenegger was a Terminator then Sam Worthington played Terminator. And did it very well. Even the accent didn't annoyed. Although the Christian Bale's John Connor didn't sympathized as much. Sam Worthington stole the whole show from him. To be honest, Terminators shadowed everybody in previous three movies.
Terminator Salvation is totally worth for seeing. Especially for a hardcore Terminator fan.
8/10

I'm not much television person. I'd rather go to cinema or rent a DVD but I don't watch many television series on TV(there are some exceptions like "Six Feet Under", "Californication" and "X-Files"). I've heard a lot of good about Dexter and how great is Michael C Hall in the role of sociopath serial killer and crime genius. I also enjoyed him in Six Feet Under. It's too bad he has so few roles in movies.
So I finally had chance to see the first episode of Dexter. The first episode was promising. And I have to say that I'm now forced to purchase a Dexter's DVD set.
I started to feel sympathy against Michael C Hall's Dexter Morgan. With television shows it happens rarely with me that I fell into a character.
I hope the next episodes only raise my ardor and I will stay the fan of the series.
