Final Destination 5 (2011)

A group of young people survive an accident and escaped fate.  So fate comes after them to finish them off.  You can’t out run fate forever. Can you believe we are at number 5 of the Final Destination remakes.  It’s the same old theme, nothing new or different.  Just fun with killing characters off in… Read More »

Never Back Down 2 – The Beat Down (2011)

Not much can be said about this one, it’s about young good looking guys beating each other, in and out of the ring.  It’s neither great or all that bad, as well as not being real deep. The lead is played by Dean Geyer, who can currently be seen in the TV series Terra Nova. … Read More »

Horrible Bosses (2011)

A comedy of three friends, each with an over the top horrible boss.  Who hasn’t had a horrible boss at one point in your life?  But you probably didn’t plan to kill them.  Well here you can live the dream vicariously though the movie characters. A good old style fast moving comedy. 7/10

Fright Night (2011)

Anyone old enought to have seen the original Fright Night movie in the 80’s will likely enjoy this remake.  The original was excellent in it’s time and is arguably a classic.  Modernized and I think a little less tongue-in-cheek, it basically has most of the same feel and combination of qualities of the first; light… Read More »

Cowboys and Aliens (2011)

Not the cowboys and indians movie you may have grown up with.  This is much more politically correct.  The minority to be picked on here are the aliens.  Infact, the old moral of “why can’t everyone just get along” comes into play.  The cowboys and indians make nice and gang up on the poor little… Read More »

HP Touchpad eBay Sale

Yesterday at 6pm Central Time, HP was having what they hoped to be a secret promotion to blow out some more Touchpads.  I say secret only because the reports were that HP was trying to keep it under their hat, so that their employees could have the first shot at them.  But the news got… Read More »

Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon

Unlike sequel number 2, this continuation hits the spot.  Be prepared for two and a half hours mind you.  But other than the first half hour or so, which drags out way too long, this is a fun action packed ride.  Definitely an enjoyable action movie. I couldn’t help but notice that all the machine… Read More »

Green Lantern (2011)

Considering all the hype about this movie, and seeing pre-release trailers long in advance of it’s debut, I was shocked at how poor this movie turned out to be. I was not familiar with this comic book hero, assuming it is actually based on a comic book, so I can’t compare it to the original… Read More »

30 Days of Night: Dark Days (2010)

A sequel to “30 Days of Nights”, which was actually a better vampire/mild horror movie than I had expected.  But this sequel is definitely not!  Boring, poorly written, and quite obviously cobbled together to simply take advantage of being a sequel and the current vampire popularity. Don’t waste your time on this, sink your teeth… Read More »

Scream 4 (2011)

Scream 4 is actually a lot of fun.  Simply because it doesn’t take itself or any of the slasher films it makes fun of too seriously.  It’s a comedy/horror movie that is well made with some good actors, walking the line between a serious role, satire and graphic slash horror.  They pull it off and… Read More »
