"Deep Rising" stars Treat Williams and Famke Janssen. He is the captain of a boat hired "with no questions asked" to take a group of men to a specific location out in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. She is a beautiful thief aboard a cruise ship, the Aeronautica. The men on the boat were hired to hijack the cruise ship and sink it, so the cruise ship's owner could get the insurance money. Anyway, what no one bargains for are the deep sea monsters that attack the cruise ship and eat all the passengers. It was a fun Sunday afternoon movie to watch.

"The Rescuers" is a Disney movie that first premiered in 1977. I believe I saw this movie in the theater when I was a kid. Bob Newhart voices Bernard, and Ava Gabor is Miss Bianca. The International Rescue Aid Society receives a message in a bottle from a girl named Penny. She has been kidnapped by the evil Madame Medusa (Geraldine Page), and forced to look for a diamond called the Devil's Eye. This is one of my favorite Disney movies.

"The Wedding Crashers" ran a little bit too long. Perhaps that was because we were watching the uncut version. Vince Vaughan is fantastic as Jeremy. He was constantly making me laugh. I enjoyed this movie but there were a lot of clichés and it was kind of predictable. Two guys decide to meet girls by crashing weddings. They are successful, but then they both end up falling in love, much to their surprise.

"The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" is not a children's movie. I thought it was pretty violent. I don't like seeing animals hurt, and even though the animals were mythical and/or computer-generated, I didn't like to watch the battle scenes. DH really liked this movie and wants to buy it. I thought it was just okay. I liked the book better. I thought that it was almost like watching "Lord of the Rings." Liam Neeson did the voice of Aslan, and Tilda Swinton was great as the White Queen, but I think she could have been even more evil. I suggest that you see it if you like this kind of movie or have fond memories of the book.
