- Movie Review: August Rush
-
Rottten Tomatoes Rating: 39% Yeah, I know. I've been away quite a while. Sorry. I'll explain that more at some point soon, but for now I'm looking to get back in the habit of blogging, and truth is I've been back to the movies again lately. Look for more

- Movie Review: The Holiday
-
After we'd enjoyed seeing We Are Marshall together, my mom and Rikki invited me to see The Holiday just a couple days later. Being a guy, I gotta admit that my first impulse was 'chick flick', but the chance to hang out with mom and Rikki again was more

- Movie Review: We Are Marshall
-
New Years day was a pleasant change-of-pace for me. I called my mom because over Christmas she'd mentioned how much she wanted to see We Are Marshall , but Bill wasn't feeling up to going. I needed a break from work that day, so I called her that

- Movie Review: Sin City
-
Sin City is by far the best movie I've seen in recent memory. I'll be hard pressed to find anything negative to say about it. This is the first movie based on Frank Miller's Sin City graphic novels . One of the goals for the movie was to bring

- Movie Review: Shaun of the Dead (DVD)
-
After seeing the preview for Shaun of the Dead last year, I immediately wanted to see it in the theater. Unfortunately that plan fell victim to my chaotic lifestyle. But upon seeing the DVD in Best Buy the other day made me immediately put The Incredibles

- Movie Review: Guess Who
-
I got to see this movie with my sister Debbie and her family over the Easter weekend. Hopefully this will become a more regular occurrence. I wanted to see Guess Who for several reason, but chief among them was that I like the guts of the producers for

- Movie Review: Hitch
-
My first thought on writing about Hitch was along the lines of “ Will Smith is always great in these romantic comedies“. But when I tried to remember what other ones he was in, I couldn't think of one, so I looked it up. Sure enough, there

- Movie Review: Boogeyman
-
In short, Boogeyman is a 90 minute waste of time. The story was stupid. The writing was bad. The acting was hollow. The best I can say about the movie was that the lead character's childhood sweetheart was really pretty. If you're interested in

- Movie Review: Saw
-
Actually, I saw this movie quite a while ago, but since I get asked about it so much, I figured I'd include it in my update... When I first saw the trailer for Saw , I knew I had to see it. It sounded like it was going to be along the lines of Se7en

- Movie Review: Ocean's Twelve
-
Bottom line: If you liked Ocean's Eleven , you'll like Ocean's Twelve . I liked the 2001 version of Ocean's Eleven for many reasons; Steven Soderbergh's directing style, great writing, interesting characters, good dialog, and unexpected

- Movie Review: Sideways
-
I LOVED THIS MOVIE!! I hadn't even heard about Sideways until about a week before I saw it. If it wasn't for seeing a trailer on television late one night, I might not have heard of it at all. The trailer got me to look it up on the internet,

- Movie Review: In Good Company
-
I was surprised at the turnout for this movie. The theater was more than half full the night I went. I loved the premise for In Good Company ... One day you're a successful middle-aged sales executive with a great wife, and kids nearing college age.

- Movie Review: Meet the Fockers
-
It's been a long time since I've had a chance to catch a movie in the theater. Last weekend I finally got a chance to catch a few I've wanted to see. Hopefully it won't be so long between until the next time. I really liked the original

I'll keep this one short... Following the death of a childhood friend, three young city-slickers decide to fulfill their deceased buddy's dream to find D.B.Cooper's long lost treasure -- that's when the madcap adventures begin. Without

- Movie Review: Collateral
-
The theater was full the evening I saw this movie. This was a good sign after two weeks in release. I've always liked Michael Mann's style of film making. His movies seem to have a more real or raw feel than the usual Hollywood fare to me. Collateral
