Funny!
Great movie. Funny. This teenage boy lives with his 'rents and a little bro, puts up with a teacher from the oppisite of heaven, and has this major obsession with monsters. He has daydreams sometimes of monster movies withhim and his brothe rin them, and sometimes his best friend. The kid's daddies early in the movie, and (a couple months?) later his friends take himto a carnival to get his mind off of it. At the carnivel, the kid sees the"real" Frankienstien's monster. Later, the carnival packs up andmoves out, but accidently leaves behind the frankienstien. The kid statchesit, and decides he has to try and make it come alive as a kindarememberance to his father. Does the monster come to life in the end? yougotta see it to believe it. Clever, touching &entertaining; a treat for monster lovers
For those of us who grew up with cinematic monsters, Frankenstein and Me is not only a poignant trip down memory lane, but a validation of secret childhood wonder-feelings that monsters do exist and, if one believesstrongly enough, anything is possible.Director Bob Tinnell and his crew(filming exteriors on the very edge of the Mojave desert in Victorville,California while shooting the interiors in Montreal, Canada) have put theirheart and soul into this production, creating beautiful, finely detailedsets and scenarios that stand as loving homages to such films asFrankenstein, The Wolf Man, Brides of Dracula and Night of the Living Dead. Though the main character is 12 years old, don't be fooled into thinkingFrankenstein and Me is just a "children's film."As Tinnell put it, thisis not so much a kid's movie as a fan's movie.Clever, touching andentertaining, Frankenstein and Me is tailor-made for every monster-loverwhose heart has remained true to his or her childhood dreams. ...

DON' T BELIEVE!
Did I just watch a really long episode of Are You Afraidof the Dark on Nickelodeon? I guess that's what I get when I rent a horror movie that isn't rated R There was was nothing scary about this film at all. It mainly focused on some punk kid and his stupid pranks.They don't get to solve the mystery behind the ghost until the last 30 minutes of the film. What I also did'nt like about this movie was the kid had so much knowledge and equipment for creating pranks to scare people, that it seemed impossible. I'd like to say that there were some scenes of the movie where it was intresting, but there were'nt any! I found the whole movie very boring. I was so bored that I decided to surf the web while it was still playing .I would'nt even watch this crap if it were on television. We don't really get to see much of the real ghost. She just appears every now and then and stairs at a few people. The acting was so dumb and there were no actual effects at all.The story behind the ghost was SO stupid. I expected a lot more to it at the end, but nope. The grandfather acted like an ass and the kid was just a wuss. Overall this is one of those movies with a cool cover, but a stupid plot. Sorry to keep this review short, but I think I've already gotten my point across. Don't rent, buy, or even look at the cover of this BIG PIECE OF CRAP! Enough said!

Believe
Found this to be a good old fashioned ghost story.Recommend it to anyone who loves a good ghost story and with a bit of a romantic twist.
Mad
Okay Jonny Copton we really don't care wether it was scary or not besides the little mermaid is in the horror section.

Another Plane with Helpless Passengers in Jeopardy
There have been quite a number of movies about aircraft in jeopardy where the pilots are disabled or the plane's controls are too damaged to fly the plane.We saw this plot in "Airport '75" and in "Air Force 1."This time a lightning strike has damaged the plane and knocked the pilots out.The same lightning strike ripped a hole in the side of the plane and disabled two of the three passengers, leaving 13-year-old Nicole Stone to fend for herself on the disabled plane.
Very Watchable Airplane Disaster Movie
Millionaire's private plane with bratty 13-yr.-old daughter and father's friends aboard is struck by lightning knocking pilots unconscious, leaving it up to the daughter, Nicole, to fly the plane and land it safely. This movie has parts borrowed from other movies, but that's ok: private plane (Airport '77), daughter on board, refueler plane, and rescue to get people off plane (Air Force One), turbulance from one plane near another (Executive Decision), Lightning hits plane (Panic in the Skies), and finally -- and one which the "reference" is actually mentioned in the dialogue -- female takes control of the plane and professional talks her through flying the plane (Airport 1975). One of my favorite lines in this movie is when Nicole says, "Charlton Heston? Let's make it Brad Pitt." Another of my favorite lines is when the Air traffic Controller asks Nicole, "What's your status?" she answers, "My status? My status sux!" While it is somewhat implausible for a teenager to actually fly the plane, her actions, her reactions, her attitude (i.e. "The auto-pilot is p*ssing me off!" as she grabs a bat to use to disengage the stubborn auto-pilot), and what she says is very real and believable. It is not one of the best airplane disaster movies, but it is not bad either. It is very watchable and worth watching.

Elisha can save the plane but not this movie
This B movie is obviously only being released on DVD because of Elisha Cuthbert's recent rise to fame. While we wait for '24' part four and 'The Girls Next Door II' Elisha fans like myself are passing the time by reviewing her early work on Canadian children's television. The sad thing is I remember seeing this movie on Cinamax one summer.
