A great sequel but not as good as the first
9 December 2008
Punisher: War Zone was a very action packed movie. It had many great action sequences. I think it was way to far-fetched though. The story really didn't take off from the first and it lacked a lot. The acting wasn't that great only from Ray Stevenson. They tried adding humor to the movie which made it some what funny and also made it seem like they tried to add to much stuff to it. I think the visuals were really good. The movie was really gore even more than the first. It was a little bit boring the first half of the movie but really got good toward the end. It kicked up into high gear and didn't let off. I think if you are an action fan though than this is a great movie for you to see. Overall the movie lacked a little bit but not bad. A great action flick as long as you erase all the flaws and cheesiness.

A great Christmas movie with a great vibe
30 November 2008
Four Christmases was an extremely funny movie. This movie was perfect for Christmas time and had all the vibe of Christmas spirit in it. I think the story lacked a little bit and the movie really never did have much heart in it. It did have many funny parts in the movie but could've been better. I thought the movie was mostly selfish with all of the characters. If you erase all the flaws though then you will absolutely love this movie. I did love this movie to a certain extent. The acting was very good. All the actors played their parts very well. I thought that the idea of the couple running back and fourth from house to house was great. They easily could've added more to the story then just that though. Overall the movie was entertaining and great to watch.

Transporter 3 (2008)
8/10
A fun fast paced action thrill ride
26 November 2008
Transporter 3 was a very fast paced action thrill ride. It had many mind blowing scenes. Many great car chase scenes as well. The stunts and stun driving in this movie was awesome. The acting in this movie was very good besides for the main actress. I think that she could've used a little bit of work. The visuals were nice and very cool. The story was good but nothing special just enough to pass with. I think this was a great third movie to what is becoming a great series. Jason Statham is very good and becoming a very big action icon. The movie was very entertaining and didn't let up at any moment. I liked the setting where the movie took place. The story added a love connection. This is a good action movie to see for the fall. Overall I would recommend this to action fans.

Twilight (I) (2008)
10/10
This movie was really a gift
21 November 2008
Twilight was one of the best movies I have ever seen. The romance in this movie was like no other romantic movies out. It was so original and well directed. The visuals went along with the movie great. I thought the title for the movie was great. I think the visuals made sense with a lot of the scenes. It did have a few sad moments and then very intense moments. The movie was very long but did not drag on at all. It was very entertaining and will definitely keep you awake and your eyes glued. The acting was very good but cheesy at very few scenes. I think the acting was meant to be cheesy at some of the scenes. The story was amazing and very original. The vampire falling in love with a human was a great plot to begin with. Their was more to the story then just that though. The movie wasn't only serious it also had quite a bit of humor in it as well. I would say definitely go see this movie and bring a date. One more last thing to add to this amazing movie is that their was really good music.

A pretty good horror movie for a rainy night
19 November 2008
The Haunting Of Molly Hartley was a very good horror movie. I thought it did a great job explaining the story. It takes a while to figure out the whole story and piece it all together but you do eventually. It was entertaining for the most part. I think many teens would like this movie and it is a great movie for Halloween time. It was pretty good acting for the most part. The movie makes you think twice about Jesus and getting saved. It wasn't that predictable except for a few scenes. As the movie goes on it gets more and more intense. It did keep me on the edge of my seat in the last few scenes of the movie. In ways it was kind of a sad ending. It had a few corny and cheesy scenes but for the most part was a pretty well filmed and directed movie. Overall I would say go see this one it is worth your time.

Soul Men (2008)
9/10
A very good enjoyable movie all the way through
15 November 2008
Soul Men was surprisingly very funny. The movie did look funny but turned out to be funny all they way through the movie. It started out funny and got funnier and funnier. I had a fun time laughing and was refreshing laughs and original jokes. The language in the movie was terrible that they used but made the movie funnier in ways. This was definitely not a good movie for kids to see because of all the adult humor in the movie. I enjoyed myself for the most part. The acting was very good. Bernie Mac was good in it and it was nice to see him in his last movie. Samuel L. Jackson was just as funny and was more serious. They were two friends that were singers in the same band that always fought. They had two completely different personalities which made the movie enjoyable. The music was very good as well. The story was a little boring but turned out good enough. Overall I would recommend this movie to many adults that have great humor because this movie has lots of it.

Needed just a little bit of work
14 November 2008
Quantum Of Solace could of really used some work. It had a pretty bad story line for the most part. I didn't see the casino Royale but I think the story takes place from the end of that movie It had very boring parts in this and some really entertaining parts. The actors were over-acting for a lot of the movie. Daniel Craig was the only really pretty good actor in it. Everyone was good but just didn't nail it like they could've. I think it was very far-fetched and didn't make sense a lot of the movie. It was kind of confusing. I was having a hard time staying awake at some scenes. It wasn't terrible though I just think it had a lot of potential. It had many great action sequences though. The direction wasn't really going anywhere. The visuals were nice and the movie had many great filming locations. Overall the movie needed quite some work and then would have been really good.

Role Models (2008)
9/10
fun, funny, and absolutely hilarious
7 November 2008
Role Models was a very funny movie and pretty original. It didn't really have to much of a story but give it credit. The movie isn't based on it's story or acting it was all about the laughs and the young kids swearing was hilarious. It doesn't seem good to have young kids swearing in movies but it really makes you laugh more than you would think. It was pretty Corny in many different scenes and a lot toward the end it kind of got a little bit strange. It did all come together and make the movie have a little bit of heart. For the whole first half of the movie everyone was selfish. It takes a lot for the kids and adults to find their the good side in them. I did like how in the movie they helped each other to both become better people. Overall I thought the movie was good and acting was good everything was just very fun.

Changeling (2008)
7/10
A good movie for a rainy night
6 November 2008
Changeling was a very emotional movie. It had many serious and mature moments for only adults to see. Some scenes were disturbing and hard to watch. The whole movie keeps you guessing and waiting for the mother to find her child. When she finally gets her boy back and finds out it's not her child she begins to wonder what happened to her child. The movie was riveting and suspenseful. It was extremely slow moving and didn't pick up at any point in the movie. The scenes you thought it would pick up at it slowed back down. It was sad and a very inspiring and emotional movie. It wasn't that hard to follow just pay attention and you will understand everything that happens. The acting was brilliant and had many Oscar worthy performances. Especially Angelina Jolie who turned in a perfect performance. The story was brilliant and loved how it was based on a true story. Overall the movie does lack speed but is a good movie to go see for a rainy night.

A new comedy way different than most
1 November 2008
Zack And Miri Make A Porno was a very funny and original comedy. It wasn't such a take off like many other movies it had many of it's own story lines and funny jokes. Some scenes were takes off other movies but for the most part had its own stuff for a lot of the movie. I would go see this movie again just because some of the things in this movie were outrageously funny and never seen before in a any other movies. The movie was definitely not eligible to kids under the age of 16 I would say. It had many dirty scene in it and was definitely a hard R rating. The acting was good for the most part. The characters were a ll funny and enjoyable. The movie had a little bit of heart but all they way at the end of the movie. Their weren't many different film locations in the movie it was just all pretty much like a few different places. The movie wasn't confusing at all it was all just mainstream. The story wasn't just all about making a porno it had a lot more to it than just that. A little bit of a love story as well. Overall the movie didn't have many flaws and was a very funny movie for many teens to see and some adults that like raunchy comedy movies.

The best action movie I have ever seen
24 October 2008
Pride And Glory was a very amazing cop movie. It had many great realistic cop scenes in the movie. The ending of this movie was amazing and couldn't have been better. This movie had lots of action, bravery, betrayal, and was very intense. The story was the best part of the movie along with the brilliant acting. Collin Farrel and Edward Norton were great together and did a terrific job. I think the acting was Oscar worthy from both characters. The movie keeps you interested until the very end and right on the edge of your seat waiting for the outcome. The filming locations of this movie was great and some of the visuals were nice as well. I liked how they filmed the movie around Christmas time. It made the movie a little bit better i think. It kind of went along with the scene and story of the movie. The movie had pretty good heart and showed a lot of family issues. I think this movie is great to see for all action and cop movie fans. It was great and didn't have really any flaws. The action was intense and had a lot of it. The language was very bad and had a ton of that as well. Overall the movie was amazing and couldn't have been any better.

Saw V (2008)
8/10
Just as good as all the others
24 October 2008
Saw V was just as good as all the others ones. It does have the same amount of gore. It does start right away with a bang just like all the others. The story was very good in this one as well. It didn't have the best acting but was okay. It wasn't that jumpy or to scary but did have a few scares and jumps. It is a great movie to go see during Haloween. It did have a few boring moments but for the most part keeps you entertained. The movie does go very deep into the story with this one. Some of the games were fun and some were bad. This saw was more like the second one. The ending was led up very well for a great finale. The whole movie was fun though and intense for the most part. Overall would recommend seeing this saw if you have seen all the others.

Max Payne (2008)
7/10
Starts out slow but last half kicks it up
17 October 2008
Max Payne was a very slow moving movie for the first part of the movie. The reason why it was slow though is because it was explaining the story of the movie. The story was very good and kept going with it all the way until the very end. The last half of the movie really kicks it up and has a ton of action. I liked all of the special and visual effects. Their were many slow motion scenes that made the movie cool. The visuals were very good and many of them were shots of tall long buildings. Mark Whalberg was very good and did a stellar job as Max Payne. Mila Kunis was good as well for the amount of screen time she gets. The movie had many great fun action scenes to watch. The movie in ways was kind of sad. They had many flashbacks throughout the movie. Overall the movie does lack and flaw a lot of things but its pretty good.

A slow moving but powerful film
14 October 2008
Miracle At St. Anna was a very slow moving movie. The whole entire first half and middle of the movie was boring and not very entertaining. The last half hour though really makes up for a lot of the movie. If you think that endings can save a movie then this movie can. This had one of the best and most powerful endings to a movie. It was a very good story that took a long time to completely figure out. It was a sad movie and had many very gore scenes. Some scenes were hard to watch when they kill kids and innocent people at point black range. It was a very well directed and acted movie. Critacly the movie was very good and did have many good moments. Some of the critics didn't like it and some critics loved it and I can see why both ways. It did have it's really good moments and bad moments. It showed many scenes that do happen in this world today. The war scenes were very good and well shot. The visuals were good and did a great job on the shooting. Derek Luke did a great job playing one of the four black soldiers. Overall the movie was kind of good but nothing special. Although it did have many great messages and plenty of powerful scenes.

Sex Drive (2008)
10/10
Their isn't a funnier movie than this
11 October 2008
Sex Drive was the all-time funniest movie. It was by far the funniest and funnest movie I have seen this year. It ranks right up their with my favorite movies. It was very stupid and had tons of crude humor. It was all done it good taste though. The movie in ways kind of shows you to be yourself but at the same time adventures and fun. You can still be a good kid and be risky and take chances. The actors in the movie did a pretty good job. Considering all of the actors are out of their teens and had to play teenagers in the movie. They did a pretty good job for the most part. the whole movie has you laughing and nearly falling out of your seat. It started out very funny and kept getting funnier till the very end. It was in ways romantic. The movie doesn't give away anything the whole time. The movie ends well on all levels. It had many different thing in the movie from Amish people to sexy dancers to jail fights. The movie was very immature and had many adult themes. I think that this movie is good for teenagers and some adults who like sexy teen comedies. It was funny and very entertaining the whole time. Go see the movie you will not be disappointed. Im glad I went to see this sneak preview. Overall a very humorous movie with many laughs.

Quarantine (2008)
9/10
A great horror movie with many jumps
10 October 2008
Quarantine was a very suspenseful horror movie. It keeps getting creepier and creepier as the movie goes along. IN maybe one or two scenes I had my hands covering part of my eyes. I don't really jump in horror movies a lot but this movie made me jump a whole lot. This had to be the quickest and scariest horror movie I have seen yet this year. I did like how they made the movie though. It was all shot by one camera man the whole movie. It made the movie more realistic and scarier. The acting was little bit sluggish in some scenes. Jay Hernandez did a good job but the lead actress Jennifer Carpenter didn't do a great job but not horrible. I think that the ending is not what people are going to want. The movie was very intense the whole time. It didn't really have any slow moments once the action started. If you liker movies with the shaky camera then go see this movie. If you don't like the shaky cameras then go see this any way because it isn't that bad at all. The camera stayed pretty steady for the most part. Overall this was a very great fun horror movie that will make you scream and jump a whole lot.

Appaloosa (2008)
5/10
The movie mostly shoots blanks
9 October 2008
Appaloosa was a very interesting western movie. It was pretty boring and not that entertaining. The movie does not really pick up any intensity the whole duration. It wasn't full of action in any scenes at all. In a few different scenes their was some action but the trailer makes it look like much more. The whole movie you are waiting for one good showdown and it really didn't happen. The acting was a bright spot in the movie. Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen worked very well together. I liked how they made their relationship together. The visuals were pretty cool. The movie did lack filming locations which was turn off. The story wasn't that intriguing. Their weren't any extremely exciting or dramatic scenes. the movie remained pretty mellow throughout. Overall the movie wasn't all that fun to watch.

Fireproof (2008)
10/10
The best spiritual movie I have ever seen
6 October 2008
Fireproof was one of the most inspirational movies I will ever see. It had so much heart, emotion, love, and meaning. The movie explains a lot about relationships between parents, husbands, wives, and kids. The movie portrays the life of a fireman that is having troubles with his marriage and is trying to save it. The whole movie is about him trying to find ways to save his marriage and become a better man. I think that after you see this movie you will want to start praying and believing in the lord. The movie is extremely sad in many different scenes. It had a ton of emotion in several scenes especially the firefighting scenes. The movie is mostly all about second chances at life. The acting started out pretty average and got a little better. The only really good actor was Kirk Cameron. I think that everyone who sees this movie will most likely tear in one scene. The movie hits you hard and doesn't stop until the very end. It gets better and better as you keep watching. If you pay close attention you can pick up many different smart things about the movie. For a low-budget film this was a very superb one. This movie was really great for couples having trouble with marriage should see. Adults would understand this movie very good. Kids might get a little bit out of it as well. I think all parents should take their kid to go see this movie and have your kids follow the lord at a young age. Overall this was a very excellent movie with a great amount of meaning.

The Express (2008)
10/10
It has you cheering and clapping as you watch it
4 October 2008
The Express was a wonderful sports movie with lots of drama. It had a ton of emotion and great feelings in it. Me watching the movie I felt like a fan. This movie will make you love sports even if you don't. It was inspirational in so many ways. The whole movie keeps you entertained and on the edge of your seat at the end. Each one of the football games were fun and exciting to watch. When their wasn't football in the movie the director found ways to keep the movie good and interesting. This movie had emotion. love, heart, tears, and inspiring moments. Their are many different scenes in this movie that are sad to watch and upsetting for the viewers. The thing that makes it so upsetting for us to watch is the thing they do to blacks in this movie. I think that everyone should see this movie just to see how life was. The life the blacks lived in this movie wasn't good. I think this movie will teach people to respect everyone no matter who it is. This movie was one of the best movies of the year. It was the best sports movie of the year and ever. It will honestly have you on your feet. It was such a great movie and was so inspiring and should be seen by everyone. It was great for kids, teens, adults, and even grandparents. It was so exciting and fun to watch all around. Their weren't any flaws pretty much. The movie has so many different messages that were great. The thing that is mostly the best part of the movie is that Ernie is the most unselfish person on and off the field in this movie. He shows everyone how to be a better person. The coach played by Dennis Quaid did a great job and was a good person and coach as well. The movie was based on a true story also. Overall this is one feel good movie. It is the must see sports movie. Go see it and have a fun time cheering and clapping.

Not all that bad, not all that good
4 October 2008
How To lose Friends And Alienate People was a pretty annoying comedy movie. It did a have a couple funny scenes in the movie. The parts their were funny made me laugh out loud hard though. I thought that it was a little childish some scenes. The acting good but nothing amazing. The messages were pretty mixed up but mostly about never letting go of something you love. I guess the movie I thought started out very slow and kind of picked up slowly toward the end. Simon Pegg was really the only funny spot in this movie and he did a good job. He started to make the right choices toward the end of the movie. The story pretty much just revolved around him. I think everyone in this movie pretty much had problems in some kind of way. Megan Fox did only a good job at best in this movie. Overall though the movie is kind of funny and doesn't really pick up at any point. I would say don't waste your time on this movie. It wasn't anything special but wasn't bad either.

A very great love story
4 October 2008
Nights In Rodanthe was a very lovely romantic movie. It had a lot of heart in the whole movie. It had meaning in the movie as well. It was very sad the whole entire movie. I think that the end of this movie was very sad but done in good way. The director of this movie was very smart and clever the way he made this movie. The acting was terrific and very well done. Dian Lane and Richard Gere are two great people in this movie that fall in love. It was a wonderful love story and was fun to watch. The movie really teaches you a lot. I think that when you see this movie you find who you really are. The visuals were pretty at the place where they stayed at in Rodanthe. I think that it was a perfect movie all around. Not only can just adults like this movie teens can as well. This movie will most likely make everyone tear in it as well. Overall go see this movie with a date and have a great time.

A very fun hilarious movie for the whole family
3 October 2008
Beverly Hills Chihuahua was a fun and very entertaining movie for the whole family to enjoy. All ages even adults can enjoy this movie especially kids. I think this is the best kids movie I have seen ever. It was so much fun. The people who played the voices of the dogs did a great job and had very funny voice expressions. Drew Barrymore was very good and fun to listen to. George Lopez was extremely funny. The chihuahua's in this movie were very cute. The movie surprisingly has many great messages and had a ton of heart in the movie. I got a lot out of this movie when I went and seen this movie. It was kind of korny and pointless but overall very good. It had a great story and kept getting better and better as the movie went on. The movie had many new and funny jokes for kids to even understand. I think this was the best kids and maybe family movie I have seen this year. This is the one must see kids comedy movie of the year. Overall go and see this fun filled comedy movie for everyone to enjoy even adults and grandparents.

A fun new kind of romantic comedies
3 October 2008
Nick And Norah's Infinite Playlist was a fun, fresh, cute romantic comedy. It had a lot of everything in the movie. It had comedy, some fighting, and lots of other stuff. I liked the story a lot and thought it was creative how the whole movie took place all in one night. I think the story was smart and pretty different in a good way. I think the movie was was very good for teens to see but also for people who like to see romantic comedy movies. The movie makes you think more of who you really are and what kind of person you are. The acting was very good. Michael Cera is a great young actor and did a terrific job. Kat Dennings was funny and fun to watch. The two together were very funny and made the whole movie good. The movie has many different places that they filmed at. The movie was consistently good and made you laugh pretty much the whole time. Overall the movie was fun and very entertaining to go see.

Blindness (2008)
7/10
A very slow moving but powerful movie
3 October 2008
Blindness is a movie that was filmed and directed in a very smart way. The visuals in this movie went along with the movies story and vibe perfectly. Some things in this movie are hard for are eyes to handle. In some scenes the director makes you seem blind from the camera shots he does. The movie was pretty sad and very true. It was powerful and provocative. It had many realistic and jaw dropping scenes. After the movie is over you will be stunned and in shock from the movie you just seen. The acting was done perfectly and couldn't have been better. Some of the quotes in this movie were great. I think many scenes in this movie were inspirational and shocking to watch. This movie is like no other movies ever made. It really makes you think differently at things. It makes you think of what you would do in the characters positions. The story was the key thing to this movie that really made this movie any good. I think the movie was meant to make people leave shocked and stunned. In this movie their are brutal rape scenes and gross images that young kids shouldn't see. The movie also sent great messages throughout. Overall though the movie fell short of being fun and entertaining. I think the movie was mostly meant to see something different and realistic. So all and all if you want a shocking and spine tingling movie then go see Blindness.

Ghost Town (I) (2008)
8/10
A surprisingly very fun refreshing movie
26 September 2008
Ghost Town was surprisingly a very good movie. For me it was a big hit movie that I had no expectations with. The movie looked just boring and nothing new but I was wrong. It was a very funny movie. Nothing that will make you laugh out loud but the movie had you laughing consistently the whole movie. It was pretty sad, funny, fresh and most of all very meaningful. It was very a very heart warming movie. The acting was good nothing over the top but all done just perfectly. The movie can make you think a lot after you get done seeing it. The story was very good. It was explained well and had a great background behind it all. You have to wait until the end to find out what the story really all was. It is all worth it though at the end. The story was very sad. The movie was different than all the other movies out. It isn't all about the main character it is mostly about the other dead people that the man can speak to. Greg Kinnear was very good and fun to watch. The movie shows a lot of selfish people and lots of good people in the world. Overall I think this was a great movie for all people to see. especially people who have lost loved ones.
