Assault on Precinct 13, movie (1976)

Crank 2 Movie
OK well Crank 2 is not like a super good movie. But I can say it had lots of energy and action in it. Crank 2 really brings the violence the sex, the craziness. This movie overall seems to be very crazy and just a wild ride with not much …
Date Night Movie (2010)

Soul Survivors (movie)

“Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides” (2011 Film)
I can honestly say that the fourth film of the “Pirates of Carribean” series worried me. The first three films were remarkably casted, well laid out, and left me laughing and one the edge of my seat with suspence. However, after seeing the fourth film in theaters, “Pirates of …
Mean Girls
Ugh. I hate the title for this movie even more than I hate the movie itself. And what surprises me is the amount of parents that let their kids watch something with the title ‘Mean Girls’. It’s not such an awful movie; I guess. It’s your typical high school …

Freaky Friday (2003 Disney Movie)

An Erotic Werewolf in London Movie DVD
