[color=#00ffff][b]THE DUELLISTS (1977), [/b]is too repetitive and not at all compelling. I did not care about the outcome between the duellists. It's shot very well, and that's about it. Keith Carradine is borderline horrible throughout, acting wise. A generous six out of ten.[/color].
[color=#00ffff][/color].
[color=#00ffff][b]MATCHSTICK MEN (2003),[/b] is the latest from Ridley Scott. Really not much different from your standard con flick. However, Nick Cage is awesome and makes the film enjoyable. Alison Lohman is also good.[/color].

[color=#00ffff][b]WHALE RIDER (2003),[/b] I kept falling asleep during this one. I was pretty tired when I started watching it, so I can't necessarily fault the movie. In fact, I probably shouldn't rate it. I remember almost nothing.[/color].
[color=#00ffff][/color].
[color=#00ffff][b]RUNAWAY JURY (2003), [/b]is ludicrious. How the hell did they get Gene Hackman, Dustin Hoffman, Rachael Weisz, and John Cusack to sign on? They must have been forced at gun point.[/color].
