Erin Brockovich

Pros: I like anything which takes on the power of big organizations successfully.

Cons: Offensive language? though I didn't mind it.

The Bottom Line: GO WATCH IT!

Review: I watched the movie at home on video and I thoroughly enjoyed it. What made it much better was to know that it is based on a true story! And in spite of the offensive language I liked Julia Roberts a lot in this role. Some how the language didn't sound...

Pros: Superb acting, screenplay, and direction

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: One of the better films I've watched in recent years!

"Hey, Dad, I’m going down to the grocery store to get a couple things for Mom. You need anything?"

Our oldest daughter, Cindy, has been visiting us for the past few days. Always considerate...

Pros: a bold and exciting script, great acting, lots of fun

Cons: it ended

Review: What does it say about me that I loved this sexually-tittillating, bad-mouthing woman and cheered her on in her struggle for respect and compassionate justice? Does it mean I approve of women looking like bimbos? No, certainly not, but Erin Brockovich is...

Pros: Everything

Cons: Nothing

The Bottom Line: Interesting subject that could leave you a little paranoid if you think about it too much:)

Review: What you get? Basically, a movie about a big corporation using their power and prestige to take advantage of the poor people in the community that surrounds them. The story is easy to identify with and might even lead you toward a few paranoid thoughts ...

Pros: Good story, excellent direction

Cons: Lots of profanity

Review: Erin Brockovich (Julia Roberts) is the true story about the woman who does things a little different. Divorced and out of work, with three kids to feed, she gets into a car wreck with a doctor. The wreck was obviously not her fault, and he lawyer...

Pros: Roberts and Finney deserve Oscar nominations

Cons: No one will remember them during next year's Oscar balloting

Review: For those of you out there who still think of Julia Roberts as America’s Sweetheart: get ready to have your hair blown back!

In Erin Brockovich, la Julia plays a feisty single mom who schemes, manipulates, curses like a sailor and wears...

Pros: Possibly the best film of 2000...

Cons: 2000 was a sucky year for films.

The Bottom Line: Easily one of the year's best -- see it or see it again.

Review: I recently re-watched Erin Brockovich for two really good reasons. First of all, it was a really, really good movie. Second of all, it was one of the few movies this year that is actually worthy of being considered for several Oscars.

Pros: Heartwarming, great acting

Cons: None

Review: I love Julia Roberts and I can't think of any movie she has been in that I didn't like. I finally rented Erin Brockovich last night and I have to admit, this was one of her movies I was not all that enthusiastic about watching! I was so surprised at how...

Pros: Best Oscar for Julia Roberts; nominated for several others.  Great dialogue. 

Cons: Nothing.

The Bottom Line:

So do I recommend it? A resounding yes!!! I’m just surprised Julia Roberts’ cleavage didn’t get nominated for something.

Review: I’ve seen this movie many times, but caught it again on cable recently (while recovering from the "computer virus" I contracted(!!)). And even though I’ve seen this movie multiple times, the thing that catches my attention in every scene is ...

Pros: Humor, persistent woman

Cons: The bugs

Review: Julia Roberts outdid herself in this movie. She was a tough woman who knew what she wanted and went out there and got it. She made the best of the life she ended up with and, as the saying goes, what comes around, goes around. She got what she deserved!...
