Starts out promising, then degrades into the same scene replayed over and over without upping the stakes.

Like someone gave a 12-year-old girl a box of metallic Prismacolor pencils and 300 million dollars. Those effects are going to date fast without a decent story to back 'em up....
Five's Favorite Movies
Citizen Kane
PG
There are a few moments in the film that betray the film as a product of the 1940's (some of the makeup and Dorothy Comingore's performance). Otherwise, this film could have been made yesterday and it would still be a great film.
Arsenic and Old Lace
Unrated
This may be the funniest movie I've ever seen. Cary Grant is over the top and his comic timing is perfect. I seldom laugh out loud at movies, but for the first half of this film I couldn't help myself.
