Title: The Blair Witch Project
Summery: The Blair Witch Project is about three film students who go off into the woods to make a documentary about a witch who lived in the 1800s.  They disappear, and a year later their film footage is found.
Justin's Thoughts: DON'T BUY THE HYPE!!!  It was blah.  The ending left something to be desired.  It seemed a pretty average movie for me.  It was suspenseful in parts, but when you already know the outcome, how suspenseful can it be really?  It was better than the typical Hollywood horror hack and slash movies though.
Jeff's Thoughts: Well, what can I say but "Holy nauseating, Batman." Man this movie made me want to puke, and not just because I had motion sickness. I will say this, it was different and I laughed a lot and I'm glad I saw it for those two reasons (the scene about how the map got lost is the best!! funny stuff!) and had I not seen Sixth Sense first I might have actually liked the movie.  So don't believe the hype.

Title: Very Bad Things
Summery: A simple bachelor party goes very wrong, and it only gets worse.
Justin's Thoughts: I loved it.  It was a really messed up movie.  It's the best Hitchcock type movie I've seen in a while.  Be warned though, lots of blood, lots of violence.
Jeff's Thoughts:  I loved this flick and I highly recommend you rent it before planning any Bachelor party, 
this movie is twisted but in a funny ha ha way.

Title: The House on Haunted Hill
Summery: Five people are invited to spend the night in a haunted house.  If they survive until morning, they each get $1,000,000.
Justin's Thoughts: This movie rocked!  It was really creepy and had some genuinely scary scenes.  If I were living through Blair Witch for real, I'd stop, look at the ghosts, and say "What the ****?  I've seen The House on Haunted Hill, and you ain't even close to being that scary, and you're real, you *****!"
Jeff's Thoughts: A Night at the Roxebury meets House 2.  Awesome flick!  Very interesting cinematography combined with a Dark City type atmosphere.  Just go see it.

Title: Three Kings
Summery: Some Gulf War soldiers decide to steal some gold.
Justin's Thoughts: It was a pretty good flick.  I really liked the camera work, it was some of the best I've seen since Face/Off.  It had a decent mix of humor thrown in as well.
Jeff's Thoughts: Haven't I seen this movie somewhere before in a WW2 setting?  Let's hear it for rich US soldiers!

Title: Sixth Sense
Summery: A kid can see dead people, and his psychiatrist tries to help him.
Justin's Thoughts: This was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time.  I have yet to see a better performance from a child actor.  Definitely see this movie.
Jeff's Thoughts: WOW and WOW AGAIN. Don't let anyone tell you anything about this movie. Believe the hype, this movie is the best thing I've seen in a long while. The kid is creepy and if he doesn't win an award I will be surprised.  That's all I will say about it besides "go see it!"

Title: American Pie
Summery: A group of high school seniors make a pact to lose their virginity before prom.
Justin's Thoughts: This movie was hilarious.  I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe.
Jeff's Thoughts: And this one time at band camp we saw this movie called Porkies....This movie was great. Made in the tradition of "Animal House, Porkies (all of them),  The sure thing" ect..... I about fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard, and who knew they did so much at band camp, kudos' to Allyson (the red head from "Buffy").

Title: 13th Warrior
Summery: An Arab visiting the Vikings gets thrown into a war against savages. 
Justin's Thoughts: It was decent.  It's worth a rental.
Jeff's Thoughts: Chicks will dig it. Guys will be able to watch it. This movie is typical of Antonio, not a lot of plot.
However, there are Vikings and with Vikings come quality kills!!! And brother there are a few good ones.
This wasn't too bad a flick and even a spot of comedy. I really think it would have been great if they had
given the time to make more story line. So instead it kinda makes out to be a glorified Conan with Viking 
undertones and a dash of Braveheart thrown in for good measure.

Title: Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me
Summery: Austin must get his mojo back from Dr. Evil.
Justin's Thoughts: This was even funnier than the first one.  Other than that, see Jeff's comments....
Jeff's Thoughts: Two Words......Heather  Graham. Nuff' Said
