Recently, I watched Long Way Down, which is the sequel to Long Way Round. Both of these star Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman. You probably recognize the first name, but possibly not the second (unless you are a huge fan of Deliverance). I’m not sure if a documentary about guys riding around the world is [...]

Review: Predators
Last night, I went and saw Predators, which is a sequel to Predator and Predator 2. It was decent. Not bad, but nothing very exciting. There will be minor spoilers, but nothing terrible unpredictable.
Review: Bitch Slap (Movie)
Maybe you’re sitting around this 4th of July holiday and looking for something to entertain yourself, maybe you’re thinking about getting a movie. Whatever the reason, let me pass one word of advice down: Do not watch “Bitch Slap“. I really don’t know how to convey this movie in a short synopsis, but I think [...]
Review: The A-Team Movie (2010)
Ah, the A-Team. Who doesn’t love the A-Team? Ok, so lets start off with the movie itself. It was good, not “great”, not “the best movie ever”, but it was damn good. It was exactly what you’d expect from an updated A-Team. It was fun and over the top, especially with the tank/plane scene. They [...]
Blu-Ray Unskippable Bullshit
Recently I received Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li (on Blu-Ray) from Netflix. This is one of those movies that you get in the mail and you ask yourself “Why did I add this to my queue?” After some watching it, you realize “Oh yea, Moon Bloodgood was in it and she is hot.” While [...]
Review: Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief
I went into this film knowing nothing more than it was based on a book and by the title had some affiliation with Greek Mythology, a topic on which I did quite a bit of reading in my youth (and yes that means I also watched Hercules and Xena – minor sidenote Lucy Lawless is [...]
Review: High Fidelity – Book and Film
Recently, I read High Fidelity on my Kindle. I had watched the movie a while back and remembered it fondly, so I decided to read it on my Kindle. After reading the book, I thought it seemed a bit different than what I recalled form the movie, so I netflixed it and watched it on [...]
Review: 2012 (The Movie)
I’m not a huge fan of this entire 2012 hype/hysteria. So many people are panicking over this shit, that NASA had to make a website specifically to debunk it. That being said, it really isn’t a problem in the movie because they really don’t go into that much depth about it. The movie shows the [...]
Review: Boondock Saints 2
As noted previously, I went to visit Jon this past weekend. On Friday, I will cover that particular event in greater detail. I originally came down thinking that we might go see 2012 (I’m a sucker for a good disaster flick). What I was not expecting was to find out that Boondock Saints 2: All [...]
Review: The Maiden Heist
On Saturday, The Maiden Heist showed up at my place (thank you netflix). It is sort of odd that I received it on Saturday as Amazon says this isn’t due till November 24. The Maiden Heist stars Christopher Walken, Morgan Freeman, and William H. Macy. All three actors are guards at a museum, each of [...]
