We went to see the afternoon showing of “Watchmen” and I have never been so happy to step out into a warm, sunny afternoon, then I was when we left that movie. It took a lot of sunlight tow wipe that dark apocalyptic, depressing vision out of my head. It was a long, dark movie [...]

Let me just say two things right from the beginning. I did not see this with Thing One or Thing Two, and I did not pick this movie.
This was a heavy handed, preachy movie with a twist that was given away in the trailer. This took away what little fun might have been available. You [...]

I am swearing off movies based on video games.
This one was on par with Hitman, better than Silent Hill, but Below Lara Croft Tomb Raider (and far below or above, depending on your perspective, my secret-favorite, “Alone in the Dark”. I love to watch Tara Reid pretend to be smart).
This movie was not good. At [...]

On a Sunday afternoon, we couldn’t find anything better to do – and so, we decided that we would go see this movie (myself, Thing 1 and Thing 2). After the movie, we were sure we could have found something better to do. Almost anything might have been better than that. (Although, I can honestly [...]

This is a PG-13 rated slasher flick. Ugh. That seems like a contradiction. Slasher film and PG13, huh? But, there you go. That should tell you somthing. What is the point of a slasher flick, if you can’t really have any real violence? I’ve actually seen more gore on House or CSI.
There were no thrills, there were no chills, and [...]

Huh.
Wow.
This movie almost leaves me speechless. Seriously. This one is something else. It’s like someone threw darts at movies from the 80s and then created a movie from whatever the darts landed on.
At first I thought that someone had just picked popular 80s movies like, ‘Escape from New York’ and ’Mad Max,’ but the fact [...]
