Mobile Movie Minute 94 leaves Sean, Roger, Pearce and Blofeld way behind as Daniel tries again to grow into the role.  Oh, he's Bond, James Bond of course, but this is something completely different.  He doesn't make a big deal about them, but James must have super powers in order to survive this flick.  3.5 bags of hit-me-again-but-harder-this-time popcorn for this sure-fire blockbuster.  Action all the way.  Story?  No way.  And what does the title mean, anway?

Mobile Movie Minute 92 tackles Ford Motor Company and the plodding inventor who takes them on.  Intermittant wipers - who knew they could be the stars of a movie?  True story based on a New Yorker article - maybe that was where it should have stayed.  Plodding and disjointed, but redeemed by the family affair.  Ho hum.  3 bags of grease  monkey popcorn and you'll wish you'd rented it.

Mobile Movie Minute 91 takes to the streets and wrecks everything in sight.  And we mean everything.  Wild, destructive car chases, an out-of-control super duper computer, and a plot to take out the entire Executive Branch of the US government.  Who knew executive producer Spielberg was so destructive?  3.5 bags of can-we-wreck-anymore-police-car popcorn for this boys night out feature.

Mobile Movie Minute 90 (another milestone, baby!) takes our panel of four to one strange flick, but what a great fable.  Dead people, depressing/dour dentist, a heroine that's so easy to fall for, and a pain-in-the-ass dead main character.  But - it somehow all works.  Crazy funny and poignant.  Put this on your must see/rent list for sure.  4 bags of 'I'm Looking Through You' popcorn.

Mobile Movie Minute 89 gives us the Coen Brothers at their crazy best. Hilarity reigns as Brad wins the Dufus Of The Year Award.  George is uninspired, but John is fantastic.  As is Frances.  See this nutball film before word gets out.  3.9 bags of burn-the-body popcorn for this flick that brought down the house at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Mobile Movie Minute 88 takes us all around the freakin' world.  You'd think you were watching Bond, James Bond.  But you're not, you're watching Don Cheadle being a pretty good bad guy, or is it a bad good guy? You'll find out about three quarters of the way through.  3.6 bags of blow-up-the-bus popcorn for this start-the-fall-movie-season thriller.

Mobile Movie Minute 87 wraps up our Film Noir reviews.  Thanks to the Toronto Film Society for hosting such a great series.  This week we get the gory details of murders in Hollywood and behind-the-scenes action from inside Hollywood.  Hitch is unmistakable in his style, even that many years ago.  Jane Wyman is beautiful.  Marlene Dietrich is stunning and cunning.  Both flicks are worth a popcorn evening.

Mobile Movie Miinute 86 follows Woody Allen down the path of a lovesick puppy.  Ok, Woody's not in the flick, but he might as well be, as all of Scarlett, Rebecca, Javier and Penelope are Woody in character.  Well done, very entertaining.  But be warned, no nudity in the love scenes.  You can see it with your mom and it'll be ok.  3.8 bags of baked-in-Barcelona popcorn for one of Woody's best since the '80's.  This is not Annie Hall.

Mobile Movie Minute 85 notches up film noir into somewhat more modern times.  Twisted characters in San Francisco in 1949 and a 1953 crazed transAtlantic crossing with a not-so-blushing bride. Both available on DVD.  Rent them, but Impact is better.

Mobile Movie Minute 84 takes Jules Verne to task and poorly retraces his hero's steps back to the center of it all.  Yeah, Brendan's cute, but seriously, he doesn't really act now, does he?  3.5 bags of really-in-your-face popcorn for this summetime bummer.  Unless its in 3D (which earns its bags) don't bother.  Certainly don't rent it, unless you're home with a gaggle of 11 and 12 year old boys.

Mobile Movie Minute 83 is film noir at its best. Everyone wants to be someone else, and both flicks climax with satisfyingly bleak endings.  Rent these two and have a great time.

Mobile  Movie Minute 82 goes all summer blockbuster with Hellboy and his little band of merry freaks.  You gotta love 'em all, but not so much Manny (the boss).  Terrific effects from the brains behind Pan's and you've got a ride that never stops.  Don't know about the Golden Army, however.  They sleep through most of the movie.  4 bags of golden army butter popcorn for this summer fiesta of mirth and merriment.

Mobile Movie Minute 81 takes us back to the Toronto Film Society Film Noir series.  Claudette Colbert as a maybe-crazy bride-to-be and Ida Lupino as the first feminist, imho.  Rent the first, if you can.  Pass on the second!

Mobile Movie Minute 80 takes to the streets at night and follows the Batman as he tries in vain to evade the Joker's misdeeds.  Crazy, believable, violent, action, you name it and we give Heath and Christian 5 bags of DC's best popcorn.  See this movie, and then see it again.  Oh, Batman is boring compared to the Joker.  Too bad this one's gone.  Jack, ready for a reprise?

Mobile Movie Minute 79.  Special Event baby - double header Film Noir Nights all summer long!  First night features Gary Cooper in the 1931 flick 'City Streets'.  Beer, racketeering and a fresh-faced hero from the inside.  Second film stars Lee J. Cobb in the 1957 pro-union film 'The Garment Jungle'.   Well done, organizers - 4 bags of gritty popcorn for this series.

Mobile Movie Minute 78 is as crazy a movie as you'll ever see.  Driving Miss Daisy man is back, along with a band of el-creepos to take out whomsoever the knitting machine says.  What?  Yeah, I know, makes no sense, but it's fun, action-packed, and full of effects you haven't seen before.  3.8 bags of what?-I'm-a-superhero?-popcorn.  Another summer must-see flick.

Mobile Movie Minute 77 is a love story between a very lovable waste collecting robot and a probe from outer space.  Yeah, I know, sounds nuts, but it works, as only Pixar can make it work.  Fantastico!  4.5 bags of fly-me-to-the-moon popcorn.  This is a must see, for sure.  Another Oscar for Pixar, no doubt.

Mobile Movie Minute 76 (which again we forgot) tries to bring Bruce Banner and The Hulk back to the big screen.  Good try guys, but it's lame.  Better to rent King Kong and get the real 'monster-gets-girl' flick.  Ed's ok, but Liv sucks.  You'll like William Hurt, however.  And the bad guy is ugly! 3 bags of maybe-next-time popcorn.

Mobile Movie Minute 75 (another milestone, baby) is Adam Sandler up to a new and different bag of tricks. Funny as hell, this is going to be a major hit for Happy Gilmore! You may even take up hairdressing after this flick. 3.8 bags of gee-I-didn't-know-he-was-that-funny popcorn.
