Jamie Lee Curtis
Comedy classic
One of my favourite Eddie Murphy comedies. He is a down and out who gets to trade places with a rich yuppie in a big firm in order to prove a bet. Very funny scenes as the two switch places. Still one of my favourite comedies to date. If you missed it give it a whirl.

Jamie Lee returns!
Coming off the pukefest that was the Curse of Michael Myers, filmmakers had nowhere to go but up.
Seeing Jamie Lee Curtis back as Laurie Strode alongside younger versions of Michelle Williams, Josh Hartnett and Joseph Gordon-Levitt gave me a thrill. Unfortunately, the screenplay is substandard and doesn't really give the characters much to do.
Since she was last seen, Laurie has gone into hiding with her teenage son and is now a teacher at a private school in California still haunted by the events on Halloween 20 years ago.
The last act redeems the film a little with the family reunion and final confrontation being enjoyable and nostalgic; however, when the film ends I still had the feeling like an opportunity to make a truly great horror film was wasted.

Wish this show would've lasted longer!
The sci-fi craze after Star Wars in 1977 was amazing producing a James Bond film, Battlestar Galactica and the revival of Buck Rogers among countless other crap. This was a great 1970s sci-fi show with good mix of action, comedy and drama and some great guest stars including Jack Palance and Jamie Lee Curtis.
Well worth checking out.

Unfortunately awful.
Following the successful 2018 reboot, Halloween Kills picks up with Laurie (Jamie Lee Curtis) being rushed to the hospital as Michal Myers is found alive within the wreckage of her burnt-down house.
Halloween Kills has very little plot, characters are quickly introduced just to suffer random brutal deaths.
Jamie Lee Curtis is barely in this movie, being confined to a hospital bed.
The choreography for the various kills is bad, in one scene Michael kicks a door to deflect a gun, making a woman shoot herself. Our frightening slasher is fighting like Jason Statham now.
There are zero surprises. Anthony Michael Hall plays Tommy Doyle, the boy from the original movie. But the character has been ruined. He's an angry hick, inciting a riot to kill the wrong man.
Halloween Kills is a brainless sequel, save yourself and skip it.

The Terror Train
This movie is actually good, its scary, horrorfying, terrorfying, has comedy, is thrilling, and of course Jamie Lee Curtis is in it, the scream queen of all scream queens.
The Plot: During a hazing, a fraternity of pre-med students has a particularly sinister prank in store for one their more timid pledges (Derek MacKinnon). With the help of a coed, Alana Maxwell (Jamie Lee Curtis), they pull off the prank so well that the pledge needs to be institutionalized as a result. After several years pass and people forget the incident, those involved with the prank are ready to celebrate their graduation by having a costume party on a train, but they haven't escaped their past yet.
It also takes place on New Years Eve, so its a horror movie that takes place on holiday. A horror movie that is surrounding around a holiday. Its also director by Roger Spottiswoode. He directed "Under Fire", "The Best of Times", "Turner & Hooch", "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot", "Tomorrow Never Dies" and "The 6th Day".
A good horror movie to watch.

Don’t tell grandmom the babysitter’s dead! Halloween (2018) #Review
Forty years have passed since the night he came home and while Michael Myers has spent those decades incarcerated in a mental institution, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) has occupied herself by becoming a doomsday prepper – only she’s been prepping for a doomsday she knows is coming. When Michael escapes a routine prison transfer, Laurie finds herself fighting not only for her life, but that of her daughter and granddaughter too.

Surprisingly good
Quite a good premise as Kristen Bell's character goes through hell at high school. Only to discover years later her Brother is set to marry the girl who made her life difficult.
I didn't expect much from this but was surprised at the cast including Jamie Lee Curtis, Sigourney Weaver and even Betty White to name a few. Comedies around marriage seem popular in recent years and this reminded me of @The Proposal (2009) in many ways. It has similar humour based on the families clashing and settling old scores.
