Cast: Kevin Costner, Mary McDonnell, Graham Greene, Director: Kevin Costner
Academy Award winning film about a young Civil War soldier assigned to an isolated army post out west where he becomes intimately involved with a Lakota Sioux tribe, eventually becoming a member.

Blade Runner 2.0 stars out 5. I was very dissappointed about this one. 3/4 of the movie is quite boring and it the story moves at the pace of a turtle. Many times I wanted to stop it and deleted but I said to myself let me watch till the end because I want to know what's the big deal about this movie. Well the end was not great either and the story was quite predictable.

The Mosquito Coast 3.5 stars out of 5. Great movie with a sad ending. I do not know who was crazier the preacher or the scientist. Both needed to be thrown to the side and make wave for rationalize thinking. If this was based on a True story, you have to feel for the children. How could the wife let this guy get this stuff so far.

I saw this movie. I missed Blade Runner, but saw this it was pretty good.

It seems like his civilization was going pretty good until his Ice machine mad him crazy and then the 3 guys threatning the village...

Rick Steves' Europe
Budapest: The Best of Hungary
Budapest, once Vienna's partner in ruling the Austro-Hungarian Empire, feels like the capital of Eastern Europe. It's actually two cities -- busy Pest and noble Buda -- straddling the Danube and laced together by mighty bridges. Capitalism has taken hold with gusto as shopping boulevards thrive and stone Lenins and cast-iron Stalins litter a theme park at the edge of town. Today Gypsy orchestras feature smoking violins, venerable mineral baths are the rage, and 19th century coffeehouses enjoy a renaissance. For a taste of the countryside-castles, cathedrals, and riverside villages -- we cruise the Danube Bend.

Top New York fashion photographer turns a drab bookseller into an ultra-chic Paris model.

FAME 2.0 stars out of 5. I saw this movie a long time a go in the theater. I could not remember it but I know what I liked about it -- the music. The movie in itself is kind of awful and the story is so boring. Irene Cara's Fame is only good thing about this movie.
