Watching the trailer to this was downright funny, the movie itself... Meh. It had its moments of comedy, for the most part it was filled with romance. Of course the movies falls under the genre of a romantic comedy, but this one took it a bit too far in the romance aspect.

Coming from the director of the hit movie Hitch, I was expecting ALOT more comedy than what was actually put into the movie. But it let down in that department and even as cute as a lovey dubby movie may be, it just did not pull me in as Hitch did.

An all too familiar tale in divorces, someone becomes consumed with their work, neglects the other, the other feels rejected, unwanted and it becomes hell. On the other hand, the other person sees the ignorance in one persons ways, sees the childishness, the foolish way of being and that determines why they leave.

In the end it just felt like they never were divorced, more so a normal separation which happens all too often with couples nowadays. So all in all, if you have been in a relationship before, a serious one, then you know the story all too well. Problem with that is, that this is supposed to take you away from that scenario and put you in a more comedic element, where you can laugh about certain things and see them a little lighter than they are. Instead of thinking about the person you just had those moments with.

The movie was not bad, but it wasn't as light as it should have been. For all you romance lovers, this is definitely a movie for you. Romantic comedy lovers, I do not believe you will be enticed by the comedy, but may be drawn to the romance.

As the blog garners more and more attention, I saw it only fit for this to become what it truly can. I am currently working on its own website, so that the users can have a true place to go instead of just having to type in a long ass name in the address bar.

The website domain has already been purchased, hosting has already been found, only thing required right now is for the folder to be setup, which once done I will be migrating these posts over there. Stay tuned for more information, I will be revealing the website hopefully within the next few days.

Thank you for everything.. It will be back bigger and better, now on to reviewing The Bounty Hunter. :)

I must admit I have always loved the animated series of the original chipmunks. I was never a fan of the chippettes, even though they were the counter-parts to the originals, I viewed them as just a female replacement.

In this movie they tried to separate them and make them into their own individual characters and they succeeded in doing so. Initially you could see the same exact pattern from the originals to the girls, but they branched out into their own when Brittany [Lead Chippette] decided to stick up to Alvin and say he truly does not care of anyone but himself. [As if we did not know this already.]

The movie has a very good moral to it, some good humor and definitely is geared towards the younger generation and not us original fans. Beyonce's single ladies and Flo Ridas right round were the main titles for the movie and they delivered in giving the movie watcher some musical excitement.

One major flaw I saw with the movie was the lack of Dave in it. He was hurt in the beginning of the movie and did not come back into play until the end. I know it was supposed to show some character development for the chipmunks, but if they truly were trying to base this family wise as they obviously did, they should have included him a little bit more.

7 / 10 A solid family movie, everyone loves the chipmunks.

Now this was a movie worth watching. After all of the stupid ass zombie movies to be released as of late, all with shitty scripts, terrible acting, shitty CGI and even worse some with no real makeup effects, this was the SHIT.

Completely unexpected, it was at often times hilarious and the poster saying a political zomedy was perfect. It touches base on many simple things in the movie, even though the movie in itself is a joke. Zombie terrorist attack? That even sounds ridiculous, but not for this movie. Sounds just right.

The surprise of this movie reminded me of Dance of The Dead. Low budget title, great acting, awesome special effects makeup, great bloody scenes, true blue walking zombies, no CGI... Just an all around true zombie fan enjoyable experience.

Some parts may remind you of Shaun of The Dead, the special effects and the blood are a primary to this. Well done, well shot and fun at the same time, this is what you would expect from big budget zombie movies such as Zombieland, and it delivered. [Which was incredible.]

Definitely give this one a buy if you see it, you will not regret it and its a perfect movie to watch with your girl or boyfriend that is scared shitless of zombies. The look on their face when a zombie pops out of nowhere, PRICELESS!

8.0 / 10

What can I say about this movie that you cannot tell by the main actors? Nothing. Even though Billy Zane was in The Phantom, a movie I actually liked, this movie is definitely the opposite. The protagonists of this movie go to an island in the Philippines in order to film one of those neurotic survival shows.

They find themselves way over their heads when they start encountering weird noises in the jungle, incredibly swaying tree's, people getting bit, random skeletons with blood all over them. Now all of these things sound like a compelling mix, problem is with shitty acting, an alright script but needed some immense tweaking, some horrible sound effects and mix all of this in with one mans desperate necessity to find gold? Weak.

The cover made me interested, the movie made me disappointed. In the end, I knew not to trust it, but I wanted to give these lower budget movies a chance, as some of them do come out to surprisingly great results. [Dance of The Dead] But this movie has definitely put a dent in that armor all over again.

If you have the time to watch this movie and want to spend some time with someone, dont watch this. lol

3.5 / 10

Now this is a movie I definitely did not expect to be as good as it was. Woody Harrelson is in the building ladies and gentleman! This man is on a roll, with Zombieland under his revival belt and now this in the bag, Woody seems like the go to man for a guaranteed laugh or some serious punch.

Woody plays Defendor, a regular human whom swears he is also a super hero, but not with magical powers, and he gets pissed if you spell his name Defender. He befriends a young prostitute whom he found giving a corrupt cop a blowjob in his car, he did not know what was going on, but he had business with the police officer, so he let her slide. lmao

The movie is very well done, shows the type of character that Defendor is, shows the love the community and its people showcase to him, it shows how someone can completely change other peoples lives just by being in their presence, even though sometimes it takes some obstacles to get over.

Comedy / Drama / Action / Spy . This movie covers alot of ground in little time and does so very well especially with the characters involved. Good acting, great script, some solid camera work by the director and Defendor. lol

8 / 10 [Def a sleeper.]

I truly do not know what to say to this movie.. George A. Romero is a master if not THE master of zombie horror, but in this movie it just was not there. Shitty CGI, a terribad script, some alright acting, but their lines were just too bad.

Granted that the movie did have some shining moments, such as a supposed military woman whom is a  lesbian masturbating while sitting in her jeep awaiting action. The ending was not so bad either, it showed what fear can do in such a situation without thinking something through.

But lets get back to the movie as a whole, the zombies did not look bad at all, as expected of a Romero movie, the problem came in when computer animation needed to be used. Such as the infamous part where a group of rednecks decided to chop off the heads of the zombies and put them on stakes. Although awesome in its intent, horrible animation rendering made this shot completely shitty.

Unfortunately I did not enjoy this movie as much as I wanted to, even though it comes from a legend, the movie itself is not worth a legends grace, let alone stamping his name on such a product.

Just making a test blog post from my phone. Wanted to test and see if this would work and how well it does. Seems to be working perfectly with the exception of 2 vital components on an eclair 2.0 rom.

The add image and add video parts of the app do not work on eclair 2.0, they give me a force close error when either of them is launch and bring me back to the main menu of the application.

Regardless, i can easily go back to a 1.6 rom and install this. This is great! LoL

A true story about a corrupt use of information, or be it the best way of using deception to a population. Testing the true strength of an army mans will, lies, war, deceit, misinformation, being misled, falsification of government documentation, twisting a mans words to use them against them to make a situation out of nothing.

No, I am not speaking about the government of today. Even though this bodies it in its entirety. I am speaking of the movie Green Zone. This movie literally puts things into perspective for you, whether you wish to see things for what they are or not, war is and always has been about politics, this movie pushes that envelope that much further.

Matt Damon plays Chief Warrant Officer to the U.S. Army Roy Miller. He and his team are given the task of going to the sites located and described in their briefings and check for WMD's. What happens when he sees that there is nothing there? He becomes a true human being. Thats what happens. He asks natural and important questions, but reluctantly without any answers.

Or be it the answers he is receiving are not the answers to his questions. Who is the information? Why are we here? Who was behind all of this? Are the 3 most important question while watching this film, but Matt Damon's character shines, with true courage and sheer balls to do what not many are willing to. Go against the grain to see whom is truly right.

This movie had a very solid script, very good directing, was also very well shot and depicts a very real moral dilemma faced by anyone whom sees something first hand. Be it in the military or in civilian life. Solid acting made this movie that much better, to finally see a movie that showcases how corrupt a country can truly become, be it any country for that matter, truthfully shows that it really only takes that one person to truly make a difference in its outcome.

5 Oscar wins for a real life Counter-Strike movie. I dont think so. Even though the movie was definitely different and showed a side of counter terrorism with a very fresh perspective, it still did not come close to having what it took to receive 5 Oscars.

A team of 3 is what defuses the bombs in this movie, one of the members is replaced, with a guy that knows what he is doing, but seems to have a couple of screws loose. Internal turmoil, dramatic scenes, triumph shown in character, showing how one person can take something so personal, but then leave his real life behind for the life he leads overseas.

I can easily say this was a good movie, that is not in question. The characters were well done, the acting was definitely the highlight to these actors careers at this point, the script was not bad at all and the cinematography was nicely done as well.

8.5 / 10

The Final sets the standard for all of those whom were tortured and pissed off in high school. It is a gore / horror movie with a different perspective I have seen in other movies.

It is of course and above all just a movie, but the reality of its situation made the movie enjoyable and watchable. Of course not for kids, of course not for those whom already some sort of idea of doing something of the sort to someone. [Not saying someone would]

Gore, Drugs, Alcohol, stuck up kids, bullies, the victims and soon to be victim, all embodied in one movie. I thought the movie was going to be a pure piece of shit, as most high school movies often are and make absolutely no sense. But this movie did not disappoint as much, as it showcased a brutal reality, and made it that much more believable.

I by no means am saying the movie was without flaws, because that would be downright stupid. But I will say it was enjoyed and watched in good company. Nothing better than some simple gore to start up a night. LoL

Regardless, give the movie a shot if your into movies such as Saw or Hostel. This of course is not as gruesome, but it definitely is more believable.

6.5 / 10 [Not a 7 due to some poor acting parts and some shitty scripting moments.]

I do not know if many of you are fans or have seen the likes of Super Troopers or Broken Lizard's Club Dread, but here is another movie fresh from their talent.

I had never heard of this movie, truthfully was a little disappointed with Club Dread, because it could have been a good movie. [It had its moments.] But I gave it a watch regardless for review purposes and for the curiosity. Another waiter movie some may say, but this is nothing like Waiting or Still Waiting.


Matter fact if thats your type of movie, you might want to stay away from this one. The comedy in this one is alot simpler, more practical, and also a little more realistic than the other movies. I enjoyed some of the characters played, everyone for the most part having their own stories, showing their personalities immediately.

Which is definitely a plus, but I will definitely say that it is not for everyone. This is just a difficult movie to give a solid rating for, due to the fact that some people have different senses of humor, but in my opinion I sat through it, actually enjoyed it. No insane outbursts of fuck, no ridiculous titty showing, but had a drunk waiter, an insane waiter, and a flirty waiter that gets her face burned with soup and continues to wait.

A good simple movie to watch when you just need something to occupy time, it will not disappoint you, but it will not make you piss your pants either. Smooth I believe is the word, and this one definitely is there.

7 / 10 [I love Broken Lizard, I loved Beerfest and truly do hope that they make Potfest.. lol Super Troopers 2 and 2 more movies are on their schedules next.]

Now this I am excited about.

Now this was a movie I did not know anything about and was told about it by someone whom was / is contemplating joining the military himself. So of course out of respect I gave it a watch.

The beginning of the movie is very dramatic, very forthcoming and very well done. The rest of the movie, is where the problems start unfolding. Woody Harrelson is an incredible actor, and his recent performance in Zombieland brought him back to acting stardom.

Problem is, this movie could have been another incredible role, if ONLY it was continued as it started. The story started to drag on, leave its initial path and follow the main actors stupidity, instead of following what the movies title encompasses.

I have never seen a movie with this as a premise, which is what made me so curious once I started watching it. It is a difficult situation to have the military come to your house, tell you your family has been KIA, and not show a care in the world while telling you. But that is the reality of the situation, and this showcased it perfectly in the beginning, but then strayed as I stated previously.

Just for that alone, it dropped the movie so many points on my perspective, dragged out scenes, showcasing ridiculous personal situations, add to that the fact that it just stopped making sense and the ending was boldface stupid.

Once I saw the beginning I truly thought this was going to be a sleeper movie, one that isnt considered award worthy or worthy of greatness but turns out to be. But I was let down, as well as would anyone else whom watches this.

5 / 10 [Sorry Woody.]

I am a very avid fan of MMA, I love the events, love the clothing, love their sponsorship hats, flags, the sportsmanship, most of all the respect.

Now with all of this said, I have absolutely no idea how this movie was ever constructed. I understand the TapouT brand motto being, "Never Quit".. But I am pretty sure they should have once they started seeing not only the acting, but the shitty script this movie gave way to.

Rashad Evans with some practice can definitely become an actor, he did not do so terrible in this movie, Keith Jardine the same, as well as Forrest Griffin and Nate Marquardt.. The problem is not the UFC fighters, the problem is the horrible movie they were involved with.

Shitty acting by its main actor, nothing but tits and ass for a good chunk of the movie, dont get me wrong, I love to see such, but in such a ridiculous fashion, I would much rather watch some pr0n. Shitty story line, basically is supposed to be an underdog story in the MMA world. Which it turns out, the main actors mother was a 4 time world champion boxer, whom died or was killed, dont remember dont care. It just didnt add up.

Dirty fights, fixed fights, mobsters in MMA? I understand the supposed possibility in any sport of such situations, but this is not the image MMA needs especially with the amount of negativity that was surrounding MMA the passed few years.

Coming from the director of such a classic as Training Day, I knew I needed to prepare myself for a gritty, down to earth, real scenario embracing movie. This movie definitely delivered on all of the above, but I felt there was something missing. The ending was also not one I was pleased with, as it left you with questions with no answers to them. [Not particularly about the story, moreso about some characters.]

3 of the 4 stars above were characterized as cops, one of which plays a notorious drug dealer whom just got home after 8 years, 2 cops with a conflicting secret life, 1 cop with a conflicting life in general, a drug dealer who wants out.

Movie was well shot, scripting was also nicely done, acting was not bad at all and it definitely is in line with whole drama / crime genre. I am not about dramatic movies at all, but there are just those movies that grip you and do not want you to let go, this story definitely had the potential and did so in some occasions, but the ending eliminated that grasp.

Movie is well worth a watch and a buy, I cannot say I enjoyed it more than Training Day, but it definitely was up there and up to par.

Once I heard this movie was done by the lead animator of The Matrix Reloaded, I knew I had to check it out. Come to find out, it is the second movie done by him in this series, also supposedly the last.

To be honest, this movie was very well done. The animation for being done by one man was awesome, and the music played very nicely to the scenes in the movie. The dialog was not boring, the characters were interesting enough to keep you entertained, and there is no blood in the movie so kids can watch it as well. [Apart from the whole gun thing, but with no blood, it will keep them from complaining.]

The DVD itself is cheap, especially for a new release at 13.99. Support the artist, DVD can be purchased over @ http://www.killerbeanforever.com also comes with a killer 90 minute how it was made featurette.

If you have not seen it, im sure many have not, check it out. You will definitely not be disappointed, and it has enough kick ass action to make you want some more.

8.5 / 10 [Got to love the fact that its self animated, I mean come on.]

What can you expect from another Tim Burton movie? Insanity. Pure insanity. Big headed queens, incredible looking fantasy layouts, awesome characters, trippy movie scenes, and a completely custom spin on disneys original classic of the same title.

This is NOT the Alice In Wonderland some of you may remember as you were children.. This is Tim Burton's creation, spawned entirely from his head. The only thing similar to the movie of yesteryear are the characters and a familiar falling down the rabbit hole.

But the similarities are just that, as chesher is different, the story is different and enticing. I saw this one in 3D and it of course as Disney always does it is a very well done 3D movie. I read a review before saying that you can barely notice the 3D and that it did not seem to have 3D in mind and that it was added in after the fact.

These are all the reviewers opinions, and although I do respect him for saying so. Fuck him for not paying attention. This movie is to be taken as is, not to be compared with the original, and to be enjoyed by the open minded and children alike. I went to the movie theatre and there were kids there, they loved it.

People said the same about Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, but it turned out to be a very good movie as well. I enjoyed this movie, as it was different, darker, more twisted than the original. A dragon getting its head chopped off in a disney movie? Priceless.

8.5 / 10 Give it a shot, I did not regret it.

Tracy Morgan in his big break? Bruce Willis having a partner whom is comedic? O yes, this is an epic moment. lol This shit was funny, and the acting was hilarious / entertaining enough to pass by.

Sean William Scott played a thief / parkour addict that made him as hilarious as usual. The element that sort of threw me off was the mexican gang members. Their acting just was not up there at all and you had the brother of one of the heads of the gang being a puerto rican that spoke shitty spanish.

It just did not make sense, especially being spanish my damn self I felt like that kid personally extended his hand and slapped the shit out of me. lol Yes I am taking it a little far, but thats how shitty his spanish was, and for him to speak that only, is what was aggravating.

Other than that, the movie was enjoyable and you could easily spend the time in the movie theatre laughing your ass off with your friends if you went in a group.

8 / 10

I did not expect many laughs coming from this movie, but I just had to watch it after seeing the trailer of Hugh Grant with the bear in the outdoors and Sarah Jessica Parker still arguing with him. It just seemed so realistic and down to earth I had to give it a shot.

I was not disappointed, delivery from both of them was very well done, you could easily believe they were actually married and went through some real troubles, and their assistants you could also tell were falling for each other even though they were constantly competing with each other as well.

The couple that they end up staying with in Ray , Wyoming, was actually outstanding as well. Even though they do not speak about the problems much, when they do explain some things you could also be easily convinced they really were a married couple that had endured some trouble as well.

This is a very nicely done romantic comedy with very real situations, and can easily be watched with the person you care for and see what it truly takes to be happy with a relationship.

8 / 10

Finally finished watching this movie after starting to watch it around 5 times and stopping. Onto the review. . . This movie was overall alright. I cannot say that the acting had me gripped, because it did not, I also cannot say that the script was all that, because it was not.. I also will not say that the fighting had me, because it was at times, for lack of a better word or be it the perfect word, corny.

The backdrop to the story was actually enticing, but the delivery was not there and actually had me wondering why they kept running around making the same mistakes.

I will admit, I sat through the entire movie to see what the outcome of the story was, as I said it was enticing and I do love me a good story. Unfortunately, I have to be honest and say this movie although watchable, is just something to pass the time with.

6 / 10 Not the worst movie I have seen, but due to the story behind it I expected alot more.

This movie was produced by the same producers whom brought you the Saw series. I am not a big fan of Saw as a series, but I will admit that I did like the first movie. This movie was gory, and definitely is an opera.. But it is an opera in a very loose sense, seeing as there are rock elements, and a bunch of other styles of music and also singing.

The story behind this movie as well is very well done. The acting itself was one that I actually found entertaining as it was  not a bore to watch and actually kept me in my seat. The scripting was well done, the acting was also well done, and the singing was actually enjoyable and didnt make me want to rip my ears off with rusty pliers.

8 / 10 Give it a watch, I will definitely watch this one again.

Lets get down to business, this movie was downright weird. Confusing as all hell with a twist of pure insanity to mix. Heath Ledger whom turns into Collin Farrel and Jude Law... O did I mention also Johnny Depp? A Dr. whom finds entertainment with the devil by making bets with him for souls.

The devil whom granted the Dr. immortality in exchange for his first born once he or she hit 16, loves smoking, exceedingly so and also loves rigging the bets to his favor, but not to win, o no.. To tie.

The movie is awkward enough to have you scratching your heads, and crazy enough to make you think what the fuck was the writer / director thinking. Walk into a mirror and view deep into your own imagination, walk into it with two people and the stronger imagination takes over, making it either a nightmare for the other, or a blissful moment.

Did I mention Vern Troyer was in this movie? O yes, he plays the doctors faithful sidekick, whom always says, "What would I do without you?" Percy [Vern Troyer's character replies] "You could always get a midget.]

I would say watch it, the camera shots are not bad, the acting is not terrible either and the story once it actually develops gets you into it. The CG also for the imagination scenes are pretty incredible, very nice to look at and also very well done.

7 / 10 [Confusing as all hell... lol]

District 13 Ultimatum is a 2009 french sequel to 2004's District 13, which was and supposedly is currently considered a "cult" classic. Especially to those whom enjoy parkour. [Slightly different than Free Running] It has alot of action, decent acting, a decent script, and some awesome parkour scenes, with the stunts being real to top it all off.

It includes one of the actors from the movie "Kiss of The Dragon" with Jet Li. Cyril Raffaelli [The tall guys little brother whom died by landing on his neck upside down.] He is a prominent fight choreographer and has done so in The Transporter, Hitman, The Transporter 2 and to the upcoming Tekken movies.

The movie starts off with some decent action, ends with some decent action. For not being a blockbuster film with millions to invest, this movie was very well done, similar to The Transporter for us over here in the US. [Both being produced / invested in by film company EuropaCorp]

If you have some time to spend, want to watch a film you can actually sit down and relax to, this definitely will be one of those titles you can pick up and do so.

7.5 / 10 Based on its parkour elements and its action sequences. Very well done for not being a big budget movie.

I have been waiting for this movie since it was announced shortly after [REC] was released. It is a spanish horror series, that was the basis for the shitty ass adaptation known as Quarantine. This movie delivers in every single aspect of the first movie, and then some more with its crazy ass twist in the story.

Definitely nicer cameras were used this time, nicer effects, better actors, crazier scenarios, an overall better script than the first one, alot more hectic. This movie has it all, drama, horror, a virus that infects whomever comes into contact with it, and most importantly of all, gore.

To anyone whom knows spanish and is a horror movie fan, WATCH THIS FILM! To all those that do not speak spanish, subtitles are available once the DVD is relased. Im sure you will enjoy it regardless of the fact of having to read. Action was intense, you really get into the situation as they take you through the building again.

Solid movie in my opinion, definitely see it / buy it.

8 / 10

Now I am not one whom is for an entire movie being based on one situation in one place. But this movie made that non-issue due to the way the scenes were shot, and the script was written. This movie really did have it all except comedy, which wasnt a big issue with me as the comedy movies of late have for a lack of a better term, sucked balls.

The script was very well written, and the journey the director takes you [Martin Scorsese], is one that you truly will never forget. Never mind your ass being numb for the length of the movie, you will be confused enough to believe you belong in a mental hospital and start questioning those whom went to the movies with you.

Not many movies out there that left me actually thinking about the scenarios and how they could apply themselves to everyday life. This movie was one of those exceptionally well told movies, that if you truly pay attention, it consumes you and you feel as if your in the asylum watching someones documentary. It truly was creepy the way you became involved with the characters, the development of each and the explanations of them all.

The only character never fully described is the Warden of the asylum. [Yes this asylum was much like a prison, a Warden and a staff with weapons, and electrified fencing. Also only one way on or off the island.] Other than that you figure everyone out by the situations and their actions.

I say watch this movie if you like crime / mystery / thriller / drama, definitely check it out. Very solid movie.

9 / 10

I was curious about this one. I read the book once when I was 4, and just thought the kid was crazy. lol Never bothered to pick it up again and give it a look, even when we sold the book at Target when I used to work there. Difference between the book and the movie, the movie's characters personalities are very defined, so much so it makes you feel like your being pulled in.

You see a kid whom tries to fit it, but fails, be a loner and always stay to himself. Which is definitely not out of the ordinary to this world, but what makes this kid different is that he runs away from home, gets on a boat, and ends up on an island with "Wild Things" inhabiting it. He develops a relationship with them, giving them a purpose and trying to bring them a smile in an upside down world of theirs.

I wont go too in detail for the movie as to not ruin it for those whom have not watched it, but I will say that this movie touches base on many things still prevalent to this day in our everyday lives. Joy, happiness, sadness, loneliness, depression, anger, rage, frustration and honesty all exist in the world the Wild Things live in. That is where this movie shines the most. Jim Henson's creature shop developed the body suits for the Wild Things for this movie and they did an incredible job in doing so.

The movie makes you feel crazy, it makes you confused, but once you understand it, it definitely makes for a childlike representation of what life was like or could still be like to those whom never grew up. And that was what I got from this movie, at the end he decided to grow up and face the way he had acted and the things he had done.

First and foremost I would like to say that I am not a fan of Halo in general. Never got into the story, never could play the game fully. Now onto the review...

I am an anime fan period. I love its stories, I love its animation, I love the music, I love the entertainment value it presents. Halo Legends tried to capitalize on all of these things by bringing in top anime studios to take a spin at whichever section they were paid to do.

Unfortunately, the first two episodes were 100% boring, with just one voice talking and some sub par animation to accompany it. On the episode "The Duel" the action picked up with a raptor looking guy's wife was killed in order for him to duel another clan leader to gain power. The animation was different, action was definitely there but the animation was that of an early saturday morning cartoon.

The animation started picking up, and the stories started becoming less vocal and more anime like, which is definitely a good thing, especially after the half hour or so of boredom. Problem being is that it was too late for me, even though it started clamoring for attention, I just couldnt give into it. I wanted to love it, as anime is a passion, but I was too bored and succumbed to falling asleep.

All in all, I will say once the animation picked up, it was worth the watch. The action was there, the stories were there as only the Japanese can do so and do so well.

6.5 / 10

Well what can I say from a movie that was produced by those that brought you the Saw series.. After Saw 2, the movies were declining with shitty scripts, terribad acting, and over glorified death scenes.. This is no different, except that the death scenes were obvious, the story was stupid and left you wondering who, why, what and how the situations ended up panning out.

I definitely did not care about this movie at all, didnt want to watch it either but gave it a watch to review it.. I wouldnt recommend this movie to be watched, but then again fans of the Saw series would state otherwise and lie to themselves by saying this was a mind fuck of a movie and how awesome the kills were. Please. -_-

He always takes one, implies that the guy with the mask always takes one person from his killing spree and kills the ones he doesnt want. 2 + 2 = 4 and this movie definitely was summed up in the trailers.

Watching this movie was torture enough, reviewing it is like pouring salt on an open wound.

3.5 / 10

Mel Gibson back? Yes he is.. This time with a vengeance and an awesome movie to boot. The movies story grips you right from the beginning, also keeps you entertained with the situations that he ends up going through and ends up digging up as well.

What would you do if your son / daughter was gunned down? With no apparent reason to you, no explanation, no clue...? Obviously you would want justice for the crime, but what justice would you be seeking? Would it be justice such as Kevin Bacon in Death Sentence? Or would it be justice such as Training Day where the bad guy was gunned down by other bad guys with you setting it up?

Many scenarios, many options, which would you choose? Mel Gibson did a hell of a job in this movie, his acting, the script, the directing, the editing all played a vital role in making this movie as good as it was. Honestly I did not expect much, but he delivered on all angles with this role making you feel for him and the situation with a passion unrivaled and not seen in some time.

Definitely give this movie a watch if your a fan of the Crime / Drama genre.

8.5 / 10

This one started out a little slower than I am accustomed to with movies of this genre. But once Travolta was introduced, all hell broke lose. Then came the ass whoopins, the fuck bombs, the awesome profanity that only Travolta could deliver and is known for especially from his role in Pulp Fiction. [Royale with Cheese]

Seeing Travolta kill someone, is awesome. But seeing him kill someone while cracking jokes and looking cool doing so, priceless. A true blue american prick, Travolta's character overshadows literally everyone in this movie.

What makes this movie all the better in my opinion, is when his partner starts to learn the true ways of a secret or be it special agent. He realizes what the situation entails, after it is revealed to him in a very difficult manner. One simple situation or so he believes, ends up turning upside down and into a fox hole of lies.

Solid action, good acting, slow start though, but I will not let that drag my review all the way to the can. The script was definitely based on Travolta's character, with him shining with his punchlines and quick comments, being in every action scene, and also running wild doing what he feels is justice and right.

7.5 / 10 [An 8 personally, 7.5 due to the slow start.]

What would you do if you found out that for every single choice you made, another planet Earth was created where that decision did not take place? What would you do if you had to face someone so similar to you, but in the same context, so vastly different?

These are the questions answered, and contested by those in this movie. The characters are well done, well developed and their stories are well told. You know everyone, even if you are young, you know DC characters. For being a DC movie I will admit, I expected worse. I did not expect to be able to sit through the whole movie and not want to turn it off.

But to my surprise, I actually enjoyed this. The animation was well done, the action was continuous, the story was well done, and the ending was just. Another well made animated movie and definitely one for the fans of the genre to enjoy. Buy it comic book whores! haha

8 / 10

Im sticking to my gut on this one. After watching the trailers, seeing the actors, checking out the synopsis.. I still did not want to watch this movie. Just seemed too childish. As usual, my thoughts / gut did not let me down as that is exactly how it panned out.

Even though it had high profile actors, even though it had a great amount of CG, I still did not feel the need to sit down and finish watching the movie. [Even though I did for review purposes.] The movie had way too much of a comedy feel to it, something younger kids and preteens would enjoy. Younger teenagers would get a kick out of simple punchline jokes, quick responses even in their darker of situations.

It just did not appeal to me, I love movies that have a basis of mythology to them, but this one took that basis and perverted it into pubescent boy / girls dream. To have powers, to not know how to use them, but then magically learn to save the day because of the company you kept.

5 .5 / 10 [ I was originally inclined to a 5, but the fact that Rosario Dawson played Hades wife, and defied him as if that would ever happen, was too hilarious to pass up. lol ]

Lets get down to the point in this one.. It could of been worse, but then again it also could of been a hell of alot better. 50 Cent plays Mr. Thigo, a thug in command that kills anyone whom opposes him, and has his fingers basically in everything that goes down in the town. Problem with this being, they only show him a total of maybe 5 times in the movie period. You want to get to know your bad guy, you didnt in this film.

The lead actor, Tamer Hassan is a pretty busy actor, even coming to be in the new film Clash of The Titans as the God of War. He played his role very well and was definitely suited to the character given to him.

A guy that had some shitty dealings in the past, trying to make a better future, but owes a boss some money.. Family becomes a hostage, man becomes desperate to make the cash by the means he knows how. This movie had its little laughs, minimal action, and some pretty well written conversations.

I cant say I enjoyed this movie completely, but I would be lying to say that it was definitely well done for being a lower budget title.

6.5 / 10

As much as I despise remakes / sequels.. This remake of 1941's The Wolf Man, was very well done.. Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins and Hugo Weaving all made this movie something to enjoy. The acting was on point, even though Anthony Hopkins at times had some awkward moments in his script. As far as excitement / action / horror are concerned, this movie had a very fair share of all of the above.

It was not overdone, as to overshadow the stories behind the Wolfman himself, it was very well placed and also well balanced enough to keep your attention there. Something lacking with alot of movies as of late. If you do not like movies based in another time period, this is definitely not for you. Hugo Weaving's character was supposedly the police officer whom headed the Ripper case, as per say in the movie. So this is around 1889 - 1892.

A time of class, gypsies, serial killers, brothels, whores everywhere. Sounds like fun, but not to people whom love movies based on current events and current fashions.

All in all I enjoyed this movie. I would have enjoyed it more if I did not watch it with an older couple behind me talking for the remaining 40 minutes of the movie. -_-

8.5 / 10

Here is a movie very different in approach and pace.. The movie is a dark comedy of a girl born with vagina dentada. [A puss with teeth..] It shows the struggle she has to go through in her sex life, which is non existent up until a point, and it also shows her coming out of her shell so to speak and accepting herself. Something she has never known, always been ashamed of and would just not do.

Now to the downside of the movies. Showing dicks and fingers getting "bitten" off by a puss with teeth might sound hilarious, but its downright brutal. The movie did have its highlights of comedy and those were definitely passable for a laugh or two, but once it got down to her again it just depressed you and tried to make you feel bad for her situation.. Its a puss with teeth people, how could you possibly feel bad for her when shes over here chopping dicks off for fun?

On a more serious perspective, the movie was not horrible, was surprisingly watchable, even with the overwhelming amount of ignorance placed by the script to certain actors. If you have nothing else to do, are curious about vagina dentada, and have a "tooth" for a dark comedy.. This movie is right up your alley.

5 / 10

To those whom do not know the movie this references, it is Brokeback Mountain. [Winner of 3 Oscars. Another 78 wins & 64 nominations. IMDB Referenced.]

Onto the review.. This movie was pretty damn bad. When you look at the shittiest sequels of the current generation of movies and how bad they have become, this one represents that genre to the fullest. Shitty acting, horrible wigs, a girl that cock teases the shit out of a werewolf that looks better than her pale ass vampire "love"..

You may think it gets no worse, o but it does my friends.. It 1up's itself by a slew of dragged out unnecessary scenes, insurmountable depression questioning why she doesnt just kill herself, [probably would have been the perfect ending] ridiculously emo moment of her staying in her house, in her room, for months on end.

Thats not all, not only does she come out of her room, she becomes an adrenaline junkie just to see that pale ass vampires face, thinking he is going to come and save her and instead of thanking the one that saved her life, treats him like second hand garbage and denies him any action once he approaches to be honest of his emotions. [Insert Bitch here. -_-]

Then come to find out, her "love" wants to expose himself to the humans in order to get killed because he supposedly thinks his "love" is dead. Whereas you are left scratching your head as to what the fuck he was thinking, because she was alive the whole time. . .

This movie was just as dumb as the first, just as horrible as the first, if not worse because its a sequel to that god awful movie.. Anyone that truly likes this movie and is over the age of 16, needs to join that dread locked vampire that was torn to pieces by the werewolves. Believe me, you will not be missed. -_-

3.5 / 10 [Just for the cinematography. I still love the cameras they used for this movie, and the shots were nice in the wilderness.]

Star studded cast to say the least, Diane Lane, Mickey Rourke, Thomas Jane.. To have this many big name people, this movie could have been done a hell of alot better.. Rourke's character "BlackBird" was never fully developed, or at all for the most part. Leaving way too much for the viewer to decipher for themselves.

Thomas Jane was not as involved in the movie as I wanted him to be action wise, they just used him for simple things and one fight.

The storyline itself was rather thin, script needed some tuning, the kid from 500 Days of Summer was in this movie as well and annoyed the living shit out of you from beginning til the end. Even though I could sit through and watch this movie, I probably would never watch it again because of that kid. Not even Rosario Dawson whom is in this movie could get me to sit here and watch one of her worst performances.

5 / 10 [Could be worse. lol]

Lets be frank here, I did not want to see this movie period. The only reason why I ended up watching it was to make a brutally honest review.. Here it goes.

The movie was entertaining.. It has its freaks, everyone from bearded ladies, vampires, goblin looking creatures, two stomach having person, Orlando Jones with absolutely no waist line, and one man behind it all whom is scripting it as the puppets play along willingly and unwillingly.

The acting was not bad actually, the script itself was geared more towards comedy than anything else. Quick punchlines, a funny situation here and there and youve got yourself a recipe for a quick giggle. The main problem with this movie was the ending. The ending was as my brother classified it, a "cliffhanger". An ending that leaves you with more questions than answers, and no way of explaining them either.

There should be a few more of these movies in the works, as this is deemed a saga as stated by the movie poster above. That is why the ending would be a little more acceptable, but it is not.

Some quick information : The Saga of Darren Shan (known as Cirque du Freak: The Saga of Darren Shan in the US) is a young adult 12 book series written by Darren Shan about the struggle of a boy who has become involved in the world of vampires. As of October 2008, the book is published in 37 countries around the world, in 30 different languages^[1]. A movie based on the first three books in the series was released in theaters October 23, 2009. [Info Wikipedia]

7.5 / 10

As the movie trailer and its synopsis describe it as, this movie truly is a modern day samurai tale of honor, respect, loyalty and trust. A man makes a promise to a friend whom passed away, and will do everything in his power to make good on his end.

Michael Jai White is currently known to the world for his Spawn and Why Did I Get Married roles. But little does everyone know that he has Black belts in 7 styles of martial arts. He has 26 titles including U.S. Open, North American Open, and New England Grand Champion. [IMDB Info Sited]

So when it comes to kicking ass, this guy is the real deal as well. This movie has an incredible amount of action, loads of fighing, prison brawls and tough situations to make anyone sit down and want to see its outcome. This was a straight to DVD release, so dont expect expensive camera shots and crazy ass explosions, just expect a good to sit down and watch kick ass movie with some alright acting.

This movie can easily be enjoyed, and if your a fan of fighting movies, this definitely is one to put in the collection. I will be buying the Blu Ray asap.

8 / 10

Now this was a movie that was creepy and downright well done. The movie centers in a small town named Gnome located in Alaska. Which if that alone isnt creepy enough, has the highest missing person's rate in the US. This movie had an incredible blend of footage / re-shot footage with Jovovich, as they pled her case as the Dr. in this true story. [ - The aliens. ]

The archived footage in this movie was insane, creepy , scary, and incredible to watch.. Disturbing as the movie itself puts it in the trailer and during the introduction of the movies characters and so on. Nothing is scripted, it really came from the footage and the actual case studies done by this Dr. over the course of the time.

Judging by the way this movie was shot, the script was well thought out to be as close to the real situations as possible and how they happened according to the Dr. and her case logs, this movie is definitely one to watch, with an open mind of course.

8 / 10

Old Dogs was a similar feeling story, but told in a very different and positive way. Father has relationship with girl, girl leaves for her reasons, next thing you know 7 years later he has children from her but she never decided to tell him. Both Travolta and Williams are masters in their ways, and this film shows nothing short of this.

They are business partners in a firm together, whom are in the middle of the biggest deal in sports firm history. 47 Million $ over a 5 year period for one firm. The movie was well done, but the script itself lacked in certain areas, such as the children show up in his life after the 7 years, but no tests.. No proof is ever presented to support this claim.. Only, here are your kids, take care of them while im gone.

That in itself was a deal buster for me, who the hell wants kids to magically show up on their door step and be claimed as their own in such a hectic time? Obviously they wanted Williams character to feel this magicaly way, so he did not question it and set forth onto his duty... Which is bullshit by all means.

The movie was nice, good acting obviously, repeated story, but for the lack of explanation killed my overall judgement.

7 / 10

The animation on this movie was incredible.. From producer Tim Burton, and the director of Wanted, the angles and the creatures used in this movie are very weird, awkward, dark, twisted.. But that is what makes it a Tim Burton production.

Storyline was creative as well, circling around the main character 9, he is the ninth of a series of characters created by one man, a scientist whom put a piece of his soul into each of them. It is a post apocalyptic tale of might, mishap, ignorance, and then hope for humanity in a place where humanity is non existent.

The ending was a little disappointing, but every other aspect more than made up for it.

8.5 / 10

Now this is a movie Peter Jackson can be proud of attaching his name to. The oscar winning director shows Neil Blomkamp what can fully be done with an incredible budget, all the while following the very well written script that Neil Blomkamp put forth in this epic tail of Humans vs Aliens or be it racism of Humans vs Aliens.

The acting was very well done as well, as the main character truly shined and you could really feel for what was happening to him and to those around him. The aliens themselves were very well done, even the aliens children and the incredible alien weaponry was awesome to see.

This movie has a very real feel to it and that is what made it a very good blend of acting / action / drama / little comedic moments. This movie truly does have it all. I have heard people complain about the lack of action, about the length of the film etc.. This film was to be based documentary style and capture something that "could" happen, not to be the next Die Hard mixed with The Lord Of The Rings.

Watch the movie, and enjoy the actual movie. . The conversations, the situations, the acting, the cinematography, the feeling of reality in the film.

Easily a 8.5 / 10

Now this is something well worth watching. . . Based on the CLASSIC literary work, Dantes Inferno the animated epic showcases and brings to life the poem that created the basis of modern day hell in our minds. With 6 different directors, different art styles and different situations... This type of deal is very reminiscent and all too familiar with those whom have seen The Animatrix.

Animation is incredible, story was very well put together for the animated epic and also the voice talents themselves were very well played. Dante, going after his love Beatrice, only to have to endure the pain and tortures of the 9 circles of hell to get her back. . . He is a warrior for the church, but as every man, he has sin left upon his heart.. Can someone whom was pure become pure again? Or will he be devoured into the depths of hell and let his Beatrice suffer the same fate of eternal torture and damnation?

Watch and find out. 8.5 / 10

In the beginning of this movie it gave away its entire premise.. Which really made no sense to me or to the person whom watched this with me. The movie just seemed too bland to be able to be enjoyed.. Same principal with movies whom have had fathers turn against their families,  it has come to often and none better done than Jack Nicholson in The Shining.

I didnt expect much of this movie, was more of a put it in to pass the time type deal. At least it served its purpose.

5 / 10

Whats better than Jackie Chan? Jackie Chan without children. Even though this was not a bad movie, and it was enjoyable, the bottom line is that the flashes in the beginning of the movie truly were of some of Jackie Chan's best spy / cop movies. He did do some stunts in this one, but the movie's back drop and inclusion of Billy Ray Cyrus... YES. Miley Cyrus's father and singer of the one hit wonder, Dont Break My Heart, My Achy Breaky Heart, were just too much of a drag. -_-

This movie was an awkward change for Chan, even though I would love to see more movies like this.. He is not the person I expected to do so. [Maybe The Rock again? lol]

6.5 / 10

Obviously this movie is geared towards the younger generation, but that does not mean adults cannot get anything out of it. The story and way of the movie being was reminiscent of The Game Plan, also starring The Rock. The Rock plays a character whom has fallen short on life after seeing success, but has a solid relationship with his girlfriend and her daughter, but not her son whom does not wish to give him the time of day.

He then becomes a tooth fairy after denouncing their very existence, and that is when all hell breaks loose. He denounces dreams, thus they dub him "dream killer", but as with these types of movies there is a story and a moral to them.

The acting was not bad at all, Ashley Judd did a very good job, as did the children in the movie. The script could of used some tuning in some areas, but as with The Game Plan was enjoyable and a good mix.

8 / 10 Based solely on the fact that this type of story seems to suit the rock, only downfall to it is that in both The Game Plan and The Tooth Fairy, he plays a pompous asshole that gets or has gotten put into his place by reality. I would say give it a watch, especially for teens or pre teens.

From the trailer I expected ALOT from this movie, which reminds me of that movie Armored. I expected alot, but did not receive as much as I expected. Unlike The Book Of Eli, this movie is 100% based on religion, good vs good and good vs evil. The action was nicely done, the acting was not bad at all, but the script.. Wow..

I do not know who put this script together, but it was not well thought out period. One place in the whole movie is the center of its locale, no explanation of why everything is happening [Even though assumptions can be made.] and you are left questioning many parts of the movie.

6 / 10 Alot more could have been done...

Let me first be honest and say I DID NOT want to watch this movie at all. It did not appeal to me whatsoever, and it was just another story about a missing girl whose father goes crazy. Will I say I was wrong? Absolutely not. The movie was confusing to say the least, even though the basic premise was easily understood, the situations and the way they went about it was downright insane.

You would have to be crazy to understand everything that was going on in this movie, especially when they were showcasing it through the girls perspective. Coming from Peter Jackson, I expected ALOT more, in terms of storyline and something new. This is new, but too far from his comfort zone to be given praise for.

Acting was not bad at all, script could of used some touch ups.. As someone whom has raised 4 kids without having any of my own, this movie was downright disturbing. Lets just say it confirmed the reasons as to why I am how I am with questionable situations.

7 / 10 Ill leave this one for you to decide, I give it a little higher than usual because of its innovative take on this old story.

After Disney's acquisition of Marvel, I truly did expect a slew of DVD releases and this is the first under the tag I would imagine. The animation was refreshing, coming from those of the Marvel camp, this was definitely well done and expected as the last Hulk VS movies and the Captain America movie were all improvements onto themselves.

A little bit of a different take on the Hulk, this movie taking from the series Planet Hulk Information. So it is more recent than anything else but keeps in terms of the comic and did a hell of a job with the action and the script. To those whom are fans, this will not disappoint. To those who are not, its a comic book movie... Watch something that appeals to you.

8 / 10

A classic story in the like of its predecessors such as Mad Max and Road Warrior among many other post apocalyptic tales. The major difference here, this one character is one you can fully relate to while he travels and in his confrontations.

There is no question that the main focus on this movie is religion, and even as turbulent as that may seem, this movie did not overpower that fact, it did not force it upon you, all it did was put the idea there and showcased what true faith can garner while maintaining to it wholeheartedly.

I am not religious, nor do I see the views of those that are at all logical. But I will sit here and say that this movie was very well done, the acting was superb and the story was well thought out. A good script that makes you think what if and also might make those religious think twice and those non-religious think once.

9 / 10. [ I am not bashing religion, so lets not misinterpret my words. Take the review for what it is, my personal perspective. ] Watch this movie, and PAY ATTENTION.

This movie was good for many reasons. Different animation, incredible voice talents such as George Clooney, Owen Wilson, Bill "Fuckin" Murray, and Willem Dafoe all did very well with the animals they portrayed. A good comedy balanced with a good lesson is always a good recipe with the right people. This movie pulled it off and kept you interested and entertained.
