My Irresponsible Movie Index
2 - Well, you want to watch it when it is available on TNT or IFC.
3 - Put it on your long Netflix queue.
4 - Watch it to join a conversation or start a conversation to show your humor, cleverness, and intelligence. (Be careful. Somehow it's easy to ruin your conversation too.)
5 - Must see the movie if you want to rest in peace.
Ghost Rider ( 2007 ,
Director: Mark Steven Johnson
2 – I had been bored since the first ten minutes.
Rush Hour 3 ( 2007 ,
Director: Brett Ratner
1 – One of the worst Jackie Chan’s movies.
The Perfect Crime ( 2004 ,
Director: Alex De La Iglesia
5 – Very interesting
Volver ( 2006 , 
Director: Pedro Almodovar
5 – I love Penelope Cruz’s acting. Main plot is the killing of her husband; sub plot is about the relations with her mother. The movie is sad and humor. There is a good balance in characters. It is not as good as Talk to Her or All About My Mother, but still one of the best.
Grindhouse ( 2007 , 
Director: Robert Rodriguez
5 – I am not familiar with cult movie but I think it should be one of the masterpieces.
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End ( 2007 ,
Director: Gore Verbinski
4 - Entertaining

Students
When I stopped at Narita Airport, Tokyo to wait for my flight to Taiwan, I saw hundreds Japanese students. They were going to visit Shanghai, China.
I never have a school trip to another country. The farthest we went was Nantou, which is in middle of Taiwan and the only county not adjacent to the sea. It's about 4 hours driving from Taipei.
You can see how Shanghai and China becomes a phenomenon in the world.
