The Venture Bros Season 2 DVD
The Venture Bros is definitely my favorite TV show these days. Its unusual brand of humor, along with its unique writing and excellent animation (especially by the usually low Adult Swim standards) make it one of the best things around these days when it comes to TV. …
Tropic Thunder
Tropic Thunder is hilarious. There’s really no other way to put it. It’s vulgar and borderline offensive at points but if you can get through that you’ll have a blast watching this movie.
It opens with some “advertisements” of the products from the various characters. Our theater …
IMDb.com
This website is highly useful for film buffs, but it is so detailed and so user-friendly that it is not niche at all and is useful for anyone who likes movies. I find that to be pretty much everyone. I love this website because it is always …
The People Vs. Larry Flynt movie
This is a 1996 film starring Woody Harrelson and Edward Norton, it is the true story of Larry Flynt and his Hustler Magazine. The fact that Woody played Flynt surprised me a little, a drastic shift in style for him, he does a really good job, before this film …
Jeepers Creepers
I think Jeepers Creepers sucked. This movie was so cheesy and horrible. I mean I was laughing the whole time. The whole concept of the story was not even scary. I mean the idea for the monster comes from an old song. The song goes “jeeepers creepers where’d you get …
Strictly Sexual Movie
The title ‘Strictly Sexual’ invariably attracts the attention of youngsters and middle-aged people. I also chose to watch this movie, mainly because I am interested in what the movie is about, given the seductive name. However, after I watched it, ‘Strictly Sexual’ is just an ordinary movie with a …
Barefoot in the Park movie

Insidious: Chapter 3 (supernatural horror movie)

“Lions for Lambs” is a very interesting movie directed by Robert Redford. In his seventh movie, Redford makes us look deeply at war and it’s affect on our lives, especially when most wars are battled to ‘resort peace’.

Battle Los Angeles: Movie
Battle Los Angeles is a decent film, not amazing, but certainly worth watching for anyone interested in the action genre.
Since I watched the disappointing “Monsters” a few months ago, BLA gave me hope for a good alien invasion picture. I was slightly disappointed I have to admit.
The story isn’t …
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2, movie

Tangled animated movie (2010)

John Fawcett’s 2001 horror / comedy film “Ginger Snaps”
I don’t like horror movies as a rule. “The Sixth Sense” gave me nightmares for weeks, and I can’t even watch trailers of gore films, unless I’m trying to get unhealthy blood adrenalin levels. Therefore, it took my friend a lot of effort to emotionally blackmail me into watch …

Saw IV (Unrated, 2007) movie

Blockbuster Online
Can I start by saying “Waste of money.”
I can sum up the review in that one sentence, but let me be more specific.
For several months I was subscribed to Blockbuster online and can tell you that it was a terrible service.
Here’s why:
Out of Order. I am a devoted movie …

Ocean’s Twelve
I am a big fan of all of the Ocean’s movies. That being said I believe that Ocean’s Twelve is the weakest of the three. First, the good things. The acting once again is amazing. The movie features tons of stars and they do not …
Shrek the Third
In my opinion, Shrek the Third is the best movie of the Shrek movies. I liked Shrek 1 and Shrek 2 even more than 1 because of the addition of Puss in Boots. Shrek 3 I like even more than Shrek 2; that isn’t saying a whole …

“Ironman” was one of my favorite movies for 2008. I had actually put off watching it for just the right time when I would be at home alone to watch it, as I had been very busy and broke when the movie was released in theatres. I was also …
This Land Movie
A parody on the presidential election in USA 2004 where animated versions of George Bush and John Kerry insults each other in the most bizarre way. Even though this is very exaggerated it is easy to understand what the filmmakers point was. However, I can’t see why one would …

‘Runaway’ a short film by Kanye West

The Invention of Lying
I was expecting The Invention of Lying to be a romantic comedy, and only a decent one, because while I love Ricky Gervais, I do not enjoy the movies which Jennifer Garner does. I figured Gervais’ wonderful, sarcastic, dry, British humour would carry this movie. While Gervais was great, …
Dickinson Movie Theater Pittsburg KS
The Dickinson Movie Theater in Pittsburg Kansas is TERRIBLE! I have been attending there for many years now simply because there is no other theater in my area.

Pitch Perfect, movie
This movie was pretty good. I won’t have that much to say about it. Even though it was a well-adjusted movie it wasn’t the best, and improvements could be made to it. This isn’t so much about the movie belonging to a specific genre than it is about music. …
