Hot to Trot (1988)
This movie is abysmally stupid and not funny for any of the right reasons. Of course, that doesn't stop it from being funny for all the wrong reasons.

Throw Momma from the Train (1987)
Anne Ramsey is a goddess. A hideous, ugly, nasty goddess to be sure, but a goddess nonetheless.
B+
Deliverance (1972)
With the way everybody talks about this movie, I was expecting something almost on the level of The Shawshank Redemption. All I really got, though, was a slightly above average movie. I guess Ned Beatty squealing like a pig is tremendously memorable. *shrug*

The Interrogation of Michael Crowe (2002)
This would have been another generic by-the-numbers Canadian TV movie were it not for one thing: Mark Rendall's performance; he's an excellent actor and he raises the entire picture above mediocrity, and mediocre is what this film would have been with a lesser actor in the title role.
C+/B-
American Graffiti (1973)
There, I've finally seen this movie. Thankfully, unlike Deliverance, it lives up to it's reputation. I admit I was kind of hoo-hum about the picture at first, but by the time the dweeb with the glasses had his car stolen while shacking up with the ditzy blonde, I was won over.
