The Eagle Review

Can't say enough about historical movies and dually about Roman history movies. I have to admit that in some spots it dragged on but the whole story was enough for me to want to see more. It was a great story with some good casting. It could have been a little shorter of a movie but I don't think that the viewer would have gotten all that they needed to get out of it. It had the violence that you'd expect with swords and shields and a nice message about honor. This film is on the same plains as the new Robin Hood where the movie felt a little like it dragged on but made up for it in story and violence.
I give it a 3 and a half out of 5 stars.

I spit on your grave Review

I'd have to say that it's a breath of fresh air seeing the woman come out on top in a horror flick. Due justice is well over due. Nice plot and it had me wondering what was going to happen next. Some scenes were a little unbearable but it helps the story along and give you a feel for the characters. I thought it was a little slow at the beginning but after that, it got hair-razingly good. If you like a little gore to top your day off, great choice and if you like a little female revenge, then go for it. I recommend this movie to those of you who yearn for that movie that isn't like the rest as far as horror goes.
I give this movie 3 and a half out of 5 stars.

Zietgiest Review

What an overwhelmingly insightful movie. I was blown away by the abundance of information to which I never knew. This might have been because I never looked and that no one ever told me. For those of you who are highly religious, don't watch because I don't feel that you would appreciate it. Other than that, I recommend it to any who want to be informed and shocked.
I give this film a 5 out of 5 stars.

The Mechanic Review

Wow, What a movie! From start to finish, a great film. Jason Stathom was fantastic as usual. The plot was thick enough where the audience wasn't gonna lose interest at any point. It was much deeper than just killing people for money, it was much more and that was interesting. This movie had everything a man could want in a movie (sex,drugs,alcohol,violence,blood shed,and many ways for someone to get shot). I really liked this film because I didn't think that I was watching the Transporter series at any time during it.
I recommend this movie to the fullest to anyone who isn't squeemish for awkward moments and a little death.
I give it 5 out of 5 stars.

Monsters Review

Another Sci-fi snoozer. The camera work looks like they tried to make it seem like a documentary or an amatuer video. There was some great scenary but a boring plot. The two main characters were also boring with their dialogue. I almost fell asleep watching it. I kept hoping that something would jump out of somewhere and startle me from what the title insisted. But, no startling went on throughout the whole thing. On the other hand, there were monsters and unlike cloverfield, I got to actually see them. It was honestly a drawn out movie which could have used more interesting everything.
I give this film a 2 out of 5 stars.

White Out Review

A hot Marshall in Antarctica, can't get any better than that. Oh wait you can. The plot was enthrawlling and the effects were convincing to the knowledgable person. Some of the acting was not that great but all in all, I thought it was a good movie to see if someone puts it on. I wouldn't go to see it. I would watch it on cable or HBO on demand. It was a very good vedge out kind of movie. I personally liked the twists that were in it . It kept me in it and wanting to know who did what and when. I didn't figure it out till the end. So in that,
I give this movie a 3 and a half out of 5 stars.

No Strings Attached Review

An Appaulingly Hilarious movie. It had great casting and a wonderful story. The plot had twists and it was funnier than all get out. I enjoyed every bit of it and unlike other movies out there, I felt like I wanted to see more at the end of it because I couldn't get enough. For a chick flick, I really liked it.
I recommend this movie obviously to thos of you who are of age or accompanied by an adult.
I give this film a 4 and a half out of 5 stars.

The Last Exorcism Review

I personally felt that this movie was a bit slow and under budgeted. Being a documentary feely type of movie, it was just that in which it was a bit drawn out and predictable. The casting was okay but the lines could have been better. Compared to the rest of the Exorcism films, this one definitely doesn't compare due to it's lack of substance. I didn't come away from this movie feeling any bit of horrified, startled, or even in some way scarred. I fell asleep right after watching it if that tells you anything. It just wasn't convincing.
I give this film a 2 out of 5 stars.

The Dilemma Review

Vince Vauhn and Kevin James work well together. As a whole I felt this movie was deeper than I initially gave it credit for after seeing the previews. I assumed it would be just straight funniness from start to finish. I was wrong. It was a funny movie but with a bit of seriousness and a stern message as well. It lagged a little here and there but all in all, a good movie.
If you enjoy Kevin James or Vince Vauhn movies, this is a definite must. It was a cute movie for both man and woman.
I give it a 3 out of 5 stars.

TRON Review

If you saw the first Tron back in the 80's, you were probably wondering when they were going to re-make this movie like evey other. Suprise! The new TRON captured everything that the previous one did. I was blown away not only of the effects but the 3D appearance that made it that much better. It was a longer movie than I expected but that only made it that much better. I could say that some of it dragged on a little as if the directer wanted a little down time to regroup and not totally blow the audience away with every scene. He might have thought not to spoil the viewers with action in every scene. The casting was wonderful as one of the original cast members came back. For the guys, the female casting was great. I would definitely recommend Tron as a must see even if you hadn't seen the previous one. But, I especially recommend it for the one's that had.
I give it a 4 out of 5 stars.

Buried Review

This film touched greatly on being afraid of being in small, tight spaces or just plain being buried alive. Given it's limited camera work and special effects, the film had class. Ryan Reynalds seemed to go through the motions of the film nicely. I was convinced in his role. The only thing I could say I didn't like is that the camera would zoom out and up and up and up. You know that he's in a coffin yet the camera hints otherwise. Other than that, it was a unique film because it gave me what I personally was looking for in a film and that is twists. I would recommend this movie to anyone who has an attention span greater than 50 minutes and can take a little darkness.
I give it 3 and a half stars out of 5.

Devil Review

Devil from the preview seemed to be another phonebooth type of movie where it took place in one spot and didn't deviate making it a boring film. "Devil" didn't have those symptoms. It was an enthrawling movie. It kept me guessing up until the end. I really think the casting was excellant and the plot was thick. I actually liked it alot. I feel that it has a good message to send to those who care of where they go after they die and even those of you that want to lead a good life. I recommend this movie if you like to see people in their most vulnerable. It's a great movie, go see it.I give this movie
4 out of 5 stars.

Machete Review

Action packed movie. You get to see Jessica Alba naked and Michelle Rodriguez was also very hot in this bloody film. This, like the Expendables, was very gory. That doesn't mean I didn't like it. This took away the lack of story line. This movie had a few holes in it but not enough that it made it an unwatchable film. The casting was great and the premice was nice."Immigration" haha, Steven Segal played a Mexican.WHAT!?
He played it great though. I enjoyed this movie. All in all, a decent flick if you like action, gore, and senseless violence.
3 and a half out of 5 stars.

Vampire's Suck Review

A funny movie for those of us who actually saw the Twilight movie series. There were a lot of references to all three movies and also a little glimpse at True Blood. It wasn't only a satyr on Twilight but other pop culture fads. It was a funny film but I wouldn't recommend it due to prerequisites to see it. Other than that, there were plenty of general laughs and the acting was great. They did a great job casting for this movie.
2 and three quarter stars out of 5.

The Expendables Review

Great action packed film that showed the viewer how many different ways a person can have their neck broken.A lot of nice weapons. The best action movie actors from the past 15 to 20 years were in it and even though it was directed by Stallone, it was a well played movie by all. It definitely gives the viewer what they want and then some. A film worthy of seeing.I give this one 4 out of 5 stars.

The Other Guys Review

Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg play detectives. They are partners but but not in the least bit respected. This was one of the funniest films I have seen this summer and possibly one of the funniest I have seen in the past 5 years. I loved this movie and certifiably recommend it to anyone with a yearning to laugh your ass off.
5 out of 5 stars.

Get Him to the Greek Review

Oh My God! A insanely hilarious movie. I almost urinated on myself this movie was so funny.Every bit of it was great. Puff Daddy was even funny. I definitely recommend people see this film without any further delay.
5 out of 5 stars.

Twilight Saga Eclipse Review

Saw the third twilight and I was suprised with how good it was. I was only seeing it to see it but the movie fooled me and I was pleasantly giddy with glee with how well everything came together. A must see if you have seen the previous twilight's otherwise you're lost.
4 out of 5 stars.

Dinner For Schmucks Review

Saw Dinner For Schmucks with my g/f and I thought the movie was crazy funny. I was laughing frantically the whole time. Anytime Steve Carrell is in front of a camera, it's bound to be entertaining. But.... They didn't say SCHMUCK one time in the whole movie. Baffling. Other than that, great movie, a must see.
4 and a half out of 5 stars.

Zombieland Review

Zombieland with Woody Harrolson was entertaining and funny in the sick sense. It was rather gory but that just helped it along. The plot was irrelevant due to the fact that the movie was about surviving around a world filled with zombies. Killing and mayhem was the premise with a touch of humor for that sweet cherry on top.
3 and a half out of 5 stars.
