Shrek 2 is definitely better than the first one. Lots of great laughs.
We liked The Day After Tomorrow better than most other disaster movies. It is definitely overdone, but that is sort of a universal standard for disaster flicks. The special effects are pretty good. There is some interesting politics, like the reversal of roles in illegal immigration, the 3rd world saving the developed countries, a nasty vice president, and a disengaged president, etc. Scott Martens has a very interesting review at A Fistful of Euros.
For those thinking of global warming because of “The Day After Tomorrow,” I don’t get my science (or my history) from movies.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is a good movie worth watching if you have been following Harry Potter. Otherwise it feels a bit like The Two Towers, being a middle movie and all.
