Review

This two-disc set is a prime example of the folks who manufacture and distribute DVDs thinking so little about what consumers want and expect from these purchases.

On this set are four particularly awful low budget martial arts movies – all of which just happen to feature ninjas. They might be good for a laugh but only if the folks from Mystery Science Theater 3000 are in silhouette in front of the screen cracking wise about every incongruous plot twist and piece of hackneyed dialogue.

As well, no effort was made to clean up terrible picture and sound quality that in some films appears to have transferred from a fourth generation VHS dub. It was downright painful to watch most of these films as a result.

Get your ninja fix elsewhere, my friends. Leave this one on the shelf.

Just My Luck

Category: Quick Reviews
Liz Tapia is our newest teenage critic, who offers her comments on films geared toward young adults. "Just My Luck" was a great movie. Lindsay Lohan and Chris Pine made the movie even better. It's one of the best comedy movies I have seen in awhile. This movie is about a girl named Ashley (Lindsay Lohan), the luckiest girl in Manhattan, but little does she know her good luck is about to change when she kisses a guy named Jake (Chris Pine) at a party who is ridden with bad luck. They miraculously switch paths. Ashley is suddenly plagued by one hilarious disaster after another and Jake is headed for fame instead of failure. As Ashley desperatly races to find Jake and reverse her misfortune, she discovers that her terrible twist of fate is the luckiest thing that ever happened to her. This movie is presented in Anamorphic 1.85:1 Widescreen and 1.33:1 Fullscreen. The picture is clear and sharp, with accurate color and black tones. The audio is rendered in 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround and Dolby Surround, and it sounds great. The extras are good but could be better; there is a couple of featurettes and a few deleted/dxtended scenes. From Fox Home Entertainment.

Movie Quotes

Ilsa, I'm no good at being noble, but it
doesn't take much to see that the problems
of three little people don't amount to a
hill of beans in this crazy world.
