ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, who continues to set blockbuster milestones -- from "The Terminator" and "Total Recall" to "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" and "True Lies" -- returns to the screen in "Eraser," an electrifying action-thriller.  Schwarzenegger stars as the best of the elite federal marshals working for the Federal Witness Protection Program, one of the government's most clandestine agencies. When all hope is gone, he moves in and saves the lives of those at risk by eliminating all evidence of their existence. He will do anything to keep his witnesses safe. Operating in secrecy by necessity and anonymity by design, he is United States Marshal John Kruger. John Kruger is "Eraser." Now he faces his greatest challenge: Lee Cullen (VANESSA WILLIAMS) saw what she wasn't meant to see . . . and now some of the most powerful forces in the world want her dead. While working at one of the nation's leading defense contractors, she inadvertently uncovered a scheme to deliver one of the most advanced super-weapons ever developed -- the rail gun -- into hands that could shift the balance of power in the world forever. What she doesn't know is that the conspiracy reaches the highest levels of government and industry, and the players involved will stop at nothing to keep her from exposing the truth. To survive, she must sacrifice her life and her identity. To reveal her shattering secret, she needs a protector. She needs "Eraser."  For Marshal Kruger, the stakes are higher than they've ever been since the threat against this witness comes from somewhere within the government. Kruger is matched against an unknown challenger whose cunning skill equals his own as he guards Lee against the conspirators. As Kruger himself falls under suspicion as the traitor within the program, he sets out to prove his innocence to Robert Deguerin (JAMES CAAN), his mentor, and Beller (JAMES COBURN), the head of the Witness Protection Program.  Entangled in a web that grows more complicated and confrontations that grow more explosive, Kruger comes to encounter the devastating power of the rail gun itself, a weapon of awesome destruction and unstoppable force. With the rail gun in their hands, his enemies can see through walls and fire aluminum rounds at just under the speed of light . . . leaving Kruger and Lee nowhere to hide.

Robert (Ewan McGregor) is one of life's losers. He works as a janitor in a giant corporation, but dreams of something... less ordinary, while he writes what he hopes will be the great American trash novel.  Sharp-tongued Celine (Cameron Diaz) on the other hand, has never wanted for anything in her short and pampered life as the daughter of Robert's boss, Naville (Ian Holm). The
grossest indignity she can imagine is having her credit card rejected. But like Robert she's bored. In a normal life these two souls would never even meet - but who said this story was normal? In heaven two celestial cops (Holly Hunter and Delroy Lindo) are given the toughest assignment of their career by Gabriel: to make Celine and Robert fall in love.  When two such different lives
collide, sparks fly. He kidnaps her - or is it the other way round? Kidnap leads to collaboration - of the bank robbing type. Collaboration leads to something more... or at least that's the plan. But it doesn't appear to be working: rather than falling in love Robert and Celine are bickering, rather than coming together they seem to be falling apart. What's gone wrong?  Is the human heart too complex an organ to fit in with something as mundane as a plan? Or is that resilient little muscle
merely in training for something big? 

 
 
In "NICK OF TIME", Paramount Pictures' pulse-pounding new thriller from director John

This unique thriller propels you through the most important 90 minutes of a man's life in real time, 90 of the most exciting minutes ever put on film. 

Frank Drebin is back in all his comic glory in this gagfest about a plot to sabotage any and all
anti-pollution measures. The laughs (and groans) are nonstop, and nobody really gets hurt.

The trilogy starts off with highschool student Michael J. Fox who ruins Christopher Lloyd's guitar amplifier. Fox, who seems to suffer from his image of being the eternal youth, and Lloyd seem to have some sort of a vague relationship. This relationship must be based on nothing, since crazy, wild-eyed Lloyd and naive Fox obviously have absolutely nothing in common. Also strangely, Lloyd had been busy making a time-machine out of a DeLorean for thirty years. And Fox never knew a thing!  Fox is accidentally transported into the year in which his parents were supposed to meet, but his presence messes up the whole thing. Then his own Mom, Lea Thompson, falls in love with Fox instead of falling in love with Fox' "to-be" Dad. This, as you can imagine, causes some kind of a problem, because if the parents never got to get married, Fox would have never been born. Within the 104 minutes of this film, Fox manages to save his parent's marriage, to come home, own a new car and impress his girlfriend, all by just pressing a button. How does he do that? 

 
 
 
Beverly Hills High... the place where some of the richest kids in the world spend most of their teen-age lives socializing and trying to get love mates like any other teenager would do, only with a BMW to get themselves there. Alicia Silverstone stars as Cher, a ditzy 15-year old attending this high school who spends most of her time at the mall or at her computer figuring out what she's going to wear to the next party. The basic plot of the movie is that everyone is trying to get themselves a boyfriend. Some get help from others, while some try it on their own.  Although its always nice to see Alicia Silverstone (who would deny she is gorgeous), she is truly annoying in this film along with most of her friends. The humor in the movie is usually a display of the stupidity of the students. There is just nothing special about this movie. It got very boring by the end with Alicia finally acquiring a boyfriend in the end.
