1. SEX DRIVE:
With spring break coming up, we’ll see more and more of these teen sex movies. The title here says it all … an 18 year-old has an opportunity to experience his first – you know – as a result of an on-line liaison … but he has to make a road trip to do it, hence the “drive” part of the title. The original was 18A-rated for nudity, drug use, and language … the rental is the unrated edition. Yikes! James Marsden, who ought to know better, stars.

2. WHAT JUST HAPPENED?:
Robert DiNero, Bruce Willis, Stanley Tucci, and John Turturro lead an excellent cast in a little movie that follows the day-to-day trials of a Hollywood producer who tries to balance his crazy work life with an actual personal life too. Back-stabbing and untrustworthy … and that’s just his home life. Rated 14A.
3. THE HAUNTING OF MOLLY HARTLEY:
The title is scarier than the movie here … Molly is a teen who feels that the visions she sees, and the visitations from her mentally ill mother, may be a much more horrific series of events than they first appear to be. Not too much comes of this though – couple of made-you-jump moments, but not enough for what is supposed to be a horror-chiller. Hayley Bennett stars. Rated 14A.

4. WHAT JUST HAPPENED?:
There is a lot of truth in the story that profiles the challenges in two weeks in the life of a producer trying to get a film made. DiNero as always is excellent.

TAXI DRIVER (1976): DiNero again, this time as a mentally unstable Vietnam vet … who tries to save a teen prostitute. Outstanding film. “You talkin’ to me?” |

Fired Up
A terrible teen sex comedy … unless you’re a hormone-driven 17 year-old.
