"Ground Control" (1998) PG-13

In the stressful business of air traffic control, Jack Harris (Kiefer Sutherland) was the best -- until a crash ended his career. Haunted by the tragedy, Jack struggles to cope. But when a fierce storm cripples the Phoenix airport, he's called back into action. Now, he must fight his demons to clear his conscience and save the lives of hundreds of people. Robert Sean Leonard, Henry Winkler and Margaret Cho co-star in this gripping thriller.

I really enjoyed this movie as it gave me an inside look at what air traffic controllers actually do....and it is unbelievable! This movie was even more enjoyable for me because it had Kiefer Sutherland who plays Jack Bauer from the TV series "24"...and Robert Sean Leonard who plays Wilson in the TV series "House, MD". (Both of these TV shows are my favorites).

"Bounce" (2000) PG-13

Ad executive Buddy (Ben Affleck) switches airplane tickets with a stranger, who unfortunately dies when his plane crashes. Greatly troubled, Buddy looks up the man's widow, Abby (Gwyneth Paltrow), unexpectedly falls in love with her and rediscovers his hope in the process. As the romance blossoms, Buddy works to keep Abby happy and hide the fact that he was indirectly responsible for her husband's untimely death.

Enjoyable movie, sweetly romantic. Ben Affleck is great in this and he gets very emotionally teary eyed several times.

" Stone Pillow" (1985) NR

The legendary Lucille Ball takes on a more somber role than usual as bag lady Florabelle in this heartwarming movie about hope and friendship. Florabelle becomes the unwitting guide to the streets for Carrie (Daphne Zuniga), a New York social worker who thinks she has lessons to offer the down-and-out clients she serves at the homeless shelter. Soon, however, Carrie realizes that she's the one who has much to learn.

An eye-opener type movie about homeless people living on the streets, and the problems and dangers they sometimes face. Lucille Ball was marvelous in this role of a bag lady.

"Definitely, Maybe" (2008) PG-13

Will Hayes (Ryan Reynolds) is getting a divorce, prompting his precocious 11-year-old daughter, Maya (Abigail Breslin), to ask how her parents met. As Will relates his romantic history (changing the names of his past girlfriends), Maya tries to guess which of the three women in his story would someday become her mother: college sweetheart Emily (Elizabeth Banks), best friend April (Isla Fisher) or free-spirited journalist Summer (Rachel Weisz).

Sweet movie...I love these kind. Abigail Breslin is her ususal wonderful! This movie also makes you keep guessing which girl is her mother.

"One Missed Call" (2008) PG-13

Cell-phone messages describing victims' last moments on earth are the only links connecting a string of deaths in this supernatural chiller. When two of her friends die after receiving such calls, college coed Beth Raymond (Shannyn Sossamon) contacts the police, who dismiss her story -- with the exception of Det. Jack Andrews (Edward Burns). The two team up to solve the mystery, but when Beth's phone rings with an eerie refrain, is her number up?

This movie is tense but not gory like I was afraid it might be. Not bad at all.
