    “Zookeeper” Movie Review

    “Zookeeper” Movie Review (great family friendly movie!) I love this scene! The critics can take lessons in how to enjoy life.  Hey….”Zookeeper” is not an Oscar worthy high brow serious movie.  It IS a FUN family movie that kids and adults will both enjoy.  It is funny, it is FUN, and it teaches a lesson:…

  • “Hitch” Movie Review

    “Hitch” Movie Review

    “Hitch” Movie Review (wholesome, heartwarming, fun) We pulled out an old DVD….I had forgotten how good this 2005 movie was… All you need is the confidence to approach the one you like.  Hitch can help. Will Smith (Alex “Hitch” Hitchens), Kevin James (Albert Brennaman), Eva Mendes (Sara Meles) and Amber Valletta (Allegra Cole) are terrific.…

  • “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” Movie Review

    “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” Movie Review

      Apparently, the race to the moon in the 60’s was spurred by the crash of an alien spacecraft on the moon.  The U.S.A. wanted to get there first. Since I remember watching the landing on TV, the scenes of that historic event were really cool.  I had no idea that Armstrong and Aldrin found…

    “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” Movie Review

      We are all caught up (it only took us, what, 10 years?) after watching “Wolverine” on Blu-Ray this weekend. Simply put, this is the story of Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and his brother Victor Creed (Liev Schreiber)  starting when they were kids then fighting in several wars (Civil, WWI, WWII, and as Mercenaries) and finally…

  • Movie Review: “Bad Teacher”

    Movie Review: “Bad Teacher”

      “Bad Teacher” is a better movie than the trailer suggests. Cameron Diaz (as Elizabeth Halsey) is shallow.  The only men who interest her are rich, and she thinks that increasing the size of her boobs will help her attract those men. As the movie opens, she is leaving her teaching job to “marry” a very…

  • “Horrible Bosses” Movie Trailer

    Believe me, I have had my fair share of “Horrible Bosses”….thus my love of writing micro-horror stories that I call “Off Your Boss” (well, some are “off-other-people”, but, bosses prevail).  Check out one of my first micro-horror stories below this cool video.  YES….I will be in the theater on opening night. READ ALL my micro-horror (“Off…

  • “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” Movie Review

    “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” Movie Review

    “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” Movie Review  (Cage is super cool, lots of action, great effects) OK, call me a dork, but I LOVED this movie when we saw it in the movies, and then I loved it even more watching it at home in all it’s blu-ray beauty. Nick Cage (as Balthazar Blake) was one of…

  • “Super 8” Movie Review

    “Super 8” Movie Review  (Exciting) Take one part “Alien”, one part “ET”, and one part “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” mix, shake, add a few precocious kids, and you have “Super 8”. In 1979, a group of kids (aspiring movie makers) being bad (underage driving, sneaking out of the house….arrrghh) late at night nearly die in…

  • “The Tourist” Movie Review

    “The Tourist” Movie Review

    “The Tourist” Movie Review  (Johnny Depp & Angelina Jolie…need I say more?) The critics did not seem to like this movie.  To them I say:  Get a life! We watched it in the movies, and then we bought the blu-ray disc.  Last night we re-watched it on blu-ray.  The movie is very good, but, the…
