“Jack and Jill” Movie Review
(Adam Sandler goofy) – – The buzz going into this movie was how bad it was. Well, it is not as bad as I thought it would be, in fact, it was not bad at all….except for the last 30 minutes which was stupid, inane, and ridiculous. Cut out that last part and it was…

“Tower Heist” Movie Review
(TERRIFIC) – – Ben Stiller (as Josh Kovacs) and Eddie Murphy (as Slide) have a tendency to over act and get loud for no reason. Not here.

Movie Review: “Bridesmaids”
(not as good as we were expecting) – – I suppose it is human nature to raise your expectations of a movie based on a lot of positive reviews. We had heard so much about “Bridesmaids” that we decided to watch it on VUDU last night. Other than a few sparkling scenes, and three very…

“Abduction” Movie Review
(good action, interesting plot, hokey dialogue) – – “OMG THAT WAS AN AWESOME MOVIE!” yelled a teenage girl as she was leaving CineMark Theater #14 in Tracy, CA. For sure, the teen and pre-teen girls in the movie LOVED “Abduction”. You could tell when they SCREAMED as soon as Taylor Lautner (as Nathan Price) made…
