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.
