The Reel Thing

We have to wonder – can these two really make it? He looks about as corn-fed middle America as you can get, and she’s a New York Italian princess. What happens when he brings her home for dinner to his God-fearing, church-going parents and they find out she was married to a mafia hit man? Who was killed by another mafia hit man?

We admit it – we didn’t think too much of Jerry and Dorothy’s chances in the beginning. We were with Dorothy’s disapproving sister Laurel on this one: Jerry Maguire is a slick good-looking salesman that would be just as happy with a gardening tool. But as time wore on these two started to grow on us.

Peter is already complaining about how old he feels; how is he going to keep up with a woman that’s nearly 20 years younger and full of more energy than most 2 year olds?

OK, it’s crazy, we know, but there’s something about these two.

Come on, admit it – you know you want to see Maverick and Charlie get together in the end.

Their friends don’t think it will work, their families don’t think it will work; hell – most of the time even THEY don’t think it will work. So why do we?

So the question here is – do we see a future for an underage high school student and a beautiful and sophisticated call girl? We’d have to say that’s a big fat no!

Linda and Paul may have survived the test of time, but we don’t foresee the same for Sue and Mick.

We truly love this movie and still laugh every time we see it. Whether you were a fan of the Star Trek series or not, you can still enjoy the adventures of the NSEA Protector team.

This was another couple that we started off unsure of. Let’s face it – Phil is pretty much of a jerk. However we discovered that, according to the director, Phil may have actually spent at least 10 years trapped in that one-day loop. Which means he may have also had the time to transform himself into a decent human being.
