While some film sequels build successfully upon the momentum of their predecessors, other films rely on that momentum to carry viewers to see a bad movie. As such, it is worth thinking twice before seeing the latest in a series of otherwise good movies. However, some movie sequels can be better than the originals! It is important to consider who will be acting in, producing and writing the screenplays for movies in deciding which ones to see and which to skip. With that in mind, the following reviews discuss these and other issues that can make or break a given film. So, have a great summer and go out to the movies - but don't waste two hours and ten dollars on something that won't live up to the hype!

Good article! I am definetly looking forward to The Bourne Ultimatum. Live Free Or Die Hard is the best action movie I have seen so far this summer (even over Transformers), and I am hoping that the Simpsons movie is worthwhile. Thanks for the info!

I didn't even know they were making a Nancy Drew movie! Those were some of my favorite books when I was a child. I probably wouldn't see the movie, at least not in the theater. The Bourne movie sounds exciting. I am always up to a great Matt Damon movie. I do agree with you on the Ocean movies as they always get worse. Great article.

I think that the Bourne movie (with writing by Tom Stoppard!!!) sounds great. Thanks for the previews.

I have a hard time getting into summer blockbusters as much as I like those going for Oscards in Oct/Nov, but I'll definitely be checking some of these out. Very thorough and enjoyable read!

I'm both excited and terrified about the Simpsons movie. As you said, the show lost its spark a while ago; I hope that they can bring it back with the film.
