The Switch (2010)

It’s your typical Jennifer Aniston movie; kinda cute, kinda funny, an okay watch, nothing fantastic, slightly emotional at times, yadda, yadda. A very pretty single woman wants a child but can’t find the right man.  Ya that happens all the time.  Pretty single women are always having trouble finding men to make them a baby,… Read More »

I Am Number Four (2011)

It’s pretty good.  Has a bit of a low budget feel to it, but well done considering.  Typical alien movie, guy from another planet, finds out he’s being chased by the space baddies, he learns to use his super powers at the last minute and kicks ass in the end.  He’s cute, falls for some… Read More »

The Tourist (2010)

The Tourist is a light hearted spy action movie, with a weak plot and mediocre action scenes.  Overall it’s a well made commercial movie.  But the only thing that carries it through is the charisma of Jolie and Depp, as well the European scenery.  It’s reasonably entertaining, but you’re left thinking you expected better. 7/10

Love and Other Drugs (2010)

It has romance, comedy and even some drama.  This is a storey about love, learning and life, and two people discovering these things together. Some people will feel this movie more than others.  The rest of you will simply find it entertaining. 9/10

Faster (2010)

Dwayne plays an ex-con getting revenge against other criminals that killed his brother.  There’s also a hot but slightly mentally disturbed hitman involved in this plot. That’s the whole movie.  Not in a nutshell, that’s as deep as it gets.  It’s blah.  Has some okay action.  But it’s dull, even though it’s somewhat graphic and… Read More »

Middle Men (2009)

This claims to be based on a true story of the first company to allow credit card transactions on the Internet.  Used primarily for porn site commerce, this story chronicles the life of some very strange and not so bright people that became filthy rich from having a good idea at the right time.  Like… Read More »

Outsourced (2006)

I haven’t researched it, but I’d think that one of my newest fav TV shows is based on this movie.  The TV series of the same name is a half hour sitcom, a little more light hearted than it’s movie name-sake.  I likely enjoyed the movie more based on my interest in the series, so… Read More »

Beatdown (2010)

Low budget fight movie with relative unknowns.  Moderately entertaining at times, poor acting especially from the lead.  The fights are decent though graphic.  Not a great movie, and easy to pass on unless you totally bored and desperate. 5/10

Whip It (2009)

A young girl posing as someone of legal age, builds a career in women’s roller derby, when her mother has high hopes for her on the beauty pageant circuit. A much better movie than I was expecting.  It has heart, emotion, action, and some humor.  Recommended. 9/10

Adventureland (2009)

Our lead character has to take a job at the local amusement park for the summer, in hopes of saving money to go to college. This movie is better than I expected.  Which is how I tend to feel about most of the movies Jesse Eisenberg stars in.  He tends to star in these off the… Read More »
