Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle

Starring: Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, Lucy Liu, Cyia Batten, John Cleese

Story - The Angels--Natalie Cook, Dylan Sanders, and Alex Munday-- prepare to strike without warning as they go undercover to retrieve two missing silver bands. These are no ordinary rings. They contain valuable encrypted information that reveal the new identities of every person in the Federal Witness Protection Program. When witnesses start turning up dead, only the Angels, using their expertise as masters of disguise, espionage and martial arts can stop the perpetrator, a mysterious "fallen" Angel. Aided by their trusty colleague, Jimmy Bosley, the Angels' adventure begins at a remote Mongolian outpost and ends only after Dylan is forced to face a dark secret from her past --a secret that puts the lives of her two best friends in danger.

Scott's Review

Well what can I say. If you liked the first Charles Angels movie you will not be disapointed in this one. Although the story line was less than impressive, the special effects made up for it. The guest appearence of one of the original Angels was well played.

Finding Nemo

Starring - Erica Beck, Albert Brooks, Willem Dafoe, Ellen DeGeneres, Brad Garrett

Story - Life along the Great Barrier Reef is full of dangers when you are a tiny clown fish. And for Marlin, a single parent determined to protect his only son Nemo, there are constant fears and anxieties. When, on his first day of school, Nemo defies his father and swims off alone to investigate a boat, he is suddenly scooped up by a diver as Marlin helplessly watches. Marlin turns desperate as he frantically swims off in search for his son. As he passes a school of fish he bumps into Dory, an agreeable blue tang with severe short-term memory loss, who offers to help. Together this aquatic odd couple set out on an impossible mission, finding themselves in troubled waters and contending with such hazards as sharks, deadly angler fishes and a forest of jellyfish. Meanwhile, in a dentist's office overlooking Sydney Harbor, Nemo has landed in a fish tank that is home to a colorful group of characters who want to initiate him into their gang. When word of Marlin and Dory's ocean adventures gets back to Nemo, he is so thrilled to learn of his father's search for him that he becomes motivated to move forward with a daring escape plan of his own.
