Men in Black (1997)
This could be seen as the pinnacle Sci-Fi comedy; bizarre, occasionally hilarious and action packed.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 892 Average listal rating (594 ratings) 5.6 IMDB Rating 6.5
This is dark comedy at it's finest. A brilliant mashing of Tom & Jerry and Laurel & Hardy.

People who added this item 4205 Average listal rating (2887 ratings) 6.4 IMDB Rating 6.9
Liar Liar (1997)

Con Air (1997)
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 593 Average listal rating (373 ratings) 6.8 IMDB Rating 7.2
This is a very well made and smart courtroom drama with tense sequences and some inspired twists and turns.

People who added this item 312 Average listal rating (188 ratings) 5.8 IMDB Rating 5.9
The Borrowers (1997)
This is one of the most entertaining family films I've seen. It's creative and visually stunning.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 157 Average listal rating (93 ratings) 7.1 IMDB Rating 6.9
The film has some great animation, memorable characters and really fun songs. The plot is really creative. It's just a fun movie.
garfield2710's rating:

Anastasia (1997)
It's inventive, entertaining and the characters are more developed than your typical kid fare.

People who added this item 2179 Average listal rating (1407 ratings) 5.7 IMDB Rating 6.2
Scream 2 (1997)
It may not be as clever as the first film, but it's just as much fun.

Home Alone 3 (1997)
Shockingly, I found this film to be more entertaining than the second and almost as good as the original, if for no other reason that it made me laugh the hardest out of all 3.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 1088 Average listal rating (738 ratings) 6.2 IMDB Rating 6.7
Sometimes confusing, but the action is good, the plot is interesting and the characters don't feel like stereotypes.

Bean (1997)
This is a really funny comedy.
garfield2710's rating:
This is either a film you like or hate because it only has one joke. But oddly enough, I think the joke goes through enough variations to keep it fresh.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 1936 Average listal rating (1211 ratings) 5.1 IMDB Rating 5.5
Unfunny and immature, this film just doesn't deliver.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 152 Average listal rating (71 ratings) 4.9 IMDB Rating 4.6
Hey, I got invested in the characters and the mystery.
garfield2710's rating:
There are huge gaping plot holes and this film lacks the magic of the original, but it is very entertaining to watch dinosaurs rip people to shreds.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 562 Average listal rating (344 ratings) 5.7 IMDB Rating 6.1
There's nothing original here, and it is cliched in parts, but there are some funny scenes, and even some charm in it that make it a good date movie.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 264 Average listal rating (183 ratings) 5.4 IMDB Rating 5.8
The Relic (1997)
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 2999 Average listal rating (1970 ratings) 6.8 IMDB Rating 7.3
Hercules (1997)
This is not Greek mythology. It's funny, mostly thanks to James Wood's performance as Hades, but it's a generic story and like I said, doesn't give justice to the Greek myths.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 996 Average listal rating (680 ratings) 6.1 IMDB Rating 6.4
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 114 Average listal rating (73 ratings) 5.5 IMDB Rating 5.4
A Simple Wish (1997)
It's not really a good film, but it is creative and surprisingly charming.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 216 Average listal rating (152 ratings) 5 IMDB Rating 5.5
Metro (1997)
Though it has some good action scenes, and one of Eddie Murphy's better performances, the film suffers due to its over bloated length. Worth watching if you're a Murphy fan, or a fan of cop films.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 1206 Average listal rating (794 ratings) 4 IMDB Rating 3.9
Surprisingly dull, but the performance of the antagonist make this film worth sitting through at least once.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 436 Average listal rating (260 ratings) 4.9 IMDB Rating 5.3
Air Bud (1997)
A very dull film with ridiculous plot developments and a climax with little tension.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 1776 Average listal rating (1206 ratings) 4.3 IMDB Rating 4.8
Anaconda (1997)
This film is garbage, plain and simple. The animatronics and CGI are abysmal, the acting is stilted, the story is so thin they're really stretching it, even at 90 minutes, and is rife with scientific inaccuracies (i.e., Anacondas do not move that fast, especially after eating something) that might've been ignored if they didn't stretch credibility so far. Still, there's some camp and gleefully awful moments, as well as some over-the-top moments by Jon Voight that almost make it worth sitting through this train wreck.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 359 Average listal rating (222 ratings) 4.2 IMDB Rating 4
Mr. Magoo (1997)
It's a one joke film, and that joke isn't very funny.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 2390 Average listal rating (1422 ratings) 4.9 IMDB Rating 5.3
Flubber (1997)
I don't hate this film, but it was hard to sit through.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 96 Average listal rating (66 ratings) 4.2 IMDB Rating 4.9
Gone Fishin' (1997)
The characters are obnoxious and stupid, and the climax is silly.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 448 Average listal rating (295 ratings) 4.9 IMDB Rating 5.2
Very unfunny and uses tons of 90's cliches that were old even then.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 3588 Average listal rating (2476 ratings) 4.3 IMDB Rating 3.8
A campy superhero film, but for all the wrong reasons. Terrible dialogue, effects and sets, make for a film really lacking confidence.
garfield2710's rating:
People who added this item 83 Average listal rating (50 ratings) 4.4 IMDB Rating 4.9
Buddy (1997)
The only thing I can remember thinking while watching this film is "Whaaaaaaat?"
garfield2710's rating:
This is an incredibly boring movie, with little intelligence or thought.
