Terms of Endearment isn't so bad. I mean, it's a little mushy, but it's alright.

Alright, jblack, I'll give you good performances (maybe even great), but the sentimentality really turned me off. I'm not against emotion, but death scenes turn maudlin quick...

May I add, "From Dusk Till Dawn II: Texas Blood Money". Craptastic.

Haven't seen it, but the title alone leads me to shudder involuntarily. Wasn't the first one bad enough?
