Android SIP Call Contact Management is Poor

Google added native SIP calling to it’s latest release of Android 2.3.x, also known as Gingerbread.  The SIP calling works fine and is easy to set up.  However, it appears to be poorly thought out and implimented when it comes to contact management. They have added a new field they call “Internet Call” to the… 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 »

GravyTrain (2010)

This is a low budget satire of police shows from the 70s and 80s.  Just one of the problems is that it is so extremely over the top, that it’s painful, physically painful to watch.  It doesn’t work, and has the feel of a home made movie a few friends got together to make on… Read More »

The Pink Panther (2009)

Steve Martin as Insp. Jacques Clouseau.  This remake is okay for what it is.  There are a few laughs in it.  It’s always a pleasure to see Lily Tomlin in anything. She always brings some class and quality to any comedy.  I would not say this is a good example of Steve Martin’s best work.  He’s… Read More »

And Soon the Darkness (2010)

Two young women travel on their own in Argentina, only to have one of them kidnapped and to be sold into slavery.  This is the adventure of this event and her friend’s stuggle to locate her. The first half of this story is quite slow, but it turns very suspenceful and graphic.  7/10

Moon (2009)

Moon is basically a one man Sci-Fi show.  The main character is the single human support staff for a mining operation on the moon.  It’s rather slow going, but also suspensefull with a few twists.  Not your average Hollywood style movie.  If you don’t mind the slow pace, this is a decent watch, but also… Read More »
