Alias Jesse James: One of Hope's funniest films has him as an insurance sales associate out West, not the right job for a gunslinger. Fleming is a pleasant Western belle, and the 2 do a cute melody together. Cast includes Bob Hope, Rhonda Fleming, Wendell Corey, Jim Davis, and Gloria Talbott. (92 minutes, 1959)

Jurassic Park III: This amusing popcorn film that takes a scenario and plays it for all it's worth as professor-paleontologist Neill is convinced to lead an expedition to the prohibited island where dinosaurs wander, however obviously he hasn't been informed of the realities.

Macy, Tea Leoni, Alessandro Nivola, Trevor Morgan, Michael Jeter, John Diehl, and Bruce A. Young. (93 minutes, 2001)
