National Treasure: Book of Secrets – Like the first National Treasure movie, this one was a lot of fun though less realistic. Also you have to have seen the first one to appreciate the characters. RoboCop – I re-watched this in HD recently. It’s nice to not have every movie with machines be man vs […]
Movies: Protocols of Zion – A documentary about “The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion” and a look at who believes it to be true. Well mostly about who believes it to be true. If you know about the protocols then it’s mostly seeing how far and wide they have been taken up by […]
Some Girls – An older meet the crazy family kind of movie with. The characters don’t always seem to make sense but it doesn’t matter because something funny will come along to distract from that. Man of the Century – A black and white semi-period piece. For awhile it seemed like it was going wear […]
 Shoot ‘Em Up – Lots of guns, rediculous gun usage, not even trying on the physics. I was laughing pretty much from beginning to end. The trailer focuses on action and doesn’t show the humor. I don’t think it’ll be in theaters much longer, but maybe it’ll be on DVD by the end of the […]
Superbad – It started off fairly slow but after the first 15 minutes I thought it was pretty funny and it just got funnier as it went on. I also liked the unusual response to alcohol consumption. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre – This movie is all over the place. At times it’s fantastic, […]
The Illusionist – I loved the uncertainty it generated throughout the movie about what was real and what was illusion. Plus you generally can’t go wrong with Edward Norton and Paul Giamatti and I think it’s the first movie Jessica Biel is good. Happy Gilmore – It’s been awhile since I’ve seen it but it’s […]
The final Price is Right with Bob Barker – I hadn’t watched the show in years and I mostly watched it as a kid. It was fun seeing this. The excitement of everyone on the show was awesome and a number of cars were won. The value of the final showcase was about $90,000! Pirates […]
Movies going back to early April! The Pursuit of Happyness – Everyone like nothing to something stories. This one avoids sap and forceful attempts at manipulating the viewer and ends up being very enjoyable. The Holiday – It’s like two movies in one and neither could have stood on its own. Kate Winslet’s story is […]
Premonition was…. not so good. After awhile you’re wishing for some progress and when you get some progress you’re like “uh huh, sure.” I’m going to go into a few spoilers here…. The moment where it completely lost it for me is when, seeing that she needed to consult someone about premonitions, goes to the […]
Tami was visiting and she likes horror movies and thrillers and movies about serial killers and such. So we ended up seeing those types of movies while she was here. I like just about anything so that was fine with me. The Number 23 I wanted to see because 23 is my favorite number, but […]
