Inception (2010)

The plot; thieves that can manufacture dreams in order to steal from you.  Now go find another movie to watch and save your time and money. This movie is convoluted, strange, boring, tedious and extremely long for what it’s worth.  I sat through 1 hour and 45 minutes of the 2 and 1/2 hours, and… Read More »

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (2010)

Merlin’s magic is reincarnated in a teenager in modern day, in order to combat evil released from an ancient artifact. There’s nothing overly special about this action/comedy, but it was definitely a fun watch, and I enjoyed it.  It’s light, family oriented and reasonably fast paced. 9/10

Cursed (2005)

Orphined brother and sister are attacked by a werewolf and become infected with this same curse. Well done werewold story, light hearted and entertaining, plus holds your attention. 8/10

Knight & Day (2010)

Tom Cruise plays Roy, yet another secret agent/spy character, but this time not with Mission Impossible.  Roy’s a likable yet somewhat phsychotic appearing hyper active super spy. The movie tries to bring us a tongue in cheek humerous spy story, but somehow it just doesn’t work.  It’s not a bad flick, but it’s on the… Read More »

First Gallery Showing

This past Saturday evening was my first art gallery opening at Poser’s Gallery in Morden.  Opening night was a private, invitation only event.  There was a decent turn out of the people we had invited.  The gallery served wine and finger food.  I appreciated all the positive comments people made that night and since. On… Read More »

Android Has No Calendar Search!

I was away from home this week, and needed to look up an upcoming appointment on my Nexus One Google phone.  Well would you believe that simply isn’t possible?  I was able to search anything on my Palm Treo phones for the past decade since day one of the Palm devices and get almost instant… Read More »

The A-Team (2010)

Based on the 80’s TV series of the same name, this action packed remake is okay, but far from a great movie.  Big I doubt anyone that watches this will be expecting great.  Much like the TV series, it’s full of impossible stunts, explosions, and endless action.  It’s fun enough to watch for what it… Read More »

Predators (2010)

Yet another addition to the Predator series, and likely the best of the bunch since the original with Arnold.  Not a great movie in and of itself, but a fun watch based on action alone.  Fast paced and entertaining, it will hold your attention aside from one or two boring character building scenes that simply… Read More »

Jonah Hex (2010)

He’s a comic book hero based in the cowboy era, acquiring his special ability from a near death experience, to have slightly faster reflexes than the average cowboy.  He can also communicate with his horse, but what cowboy couldn’t back then.  But he’s not fast enough to dodge all bullets, and when he gets shot… Read More »

Gmail Conversations “Feature” Finally Optional

Great news from Google this week!  They have finally given in to allowing Gmail users to turn off the feature known as “Conversations”.  Some people know this as email threads.  It’s now an option in the Gmail Settings under the General tab, and called “Conversation view”.  It’s being rolled out this week, and I was… Read More »
