Movie: Vampires Suck
The movie Vampires Suck is probably the funniest movie I have seen in a long time. It is a direct spoof of all the teen vampire movies and books that have been released due to the Twilight Saga phenomenon.
There are a lot of “in-jokes” for the fans, and …
Entrapment
“Entrapment” is the movie were the likes of Sir Sean Connery mix up with at the time rising star Catherine Zeta Jones. The result is simply a great movie with drama, action and romance making the most of a great issue at the time the milliannium conversion.

Wall-e
I watched the Disney movie Wall-e today with my family. I thought it was cute and entertaining. It got to be a little boring in parts but other than that it was a really good movie. If I could sum the movie up in one word it would be …
Hot Rod (the movie)
Hot Rod is surprisingly hilarious! I thought this would be a dull humor flick, but I found myself laughing through 90% of the movie. Its a comedy about a 20 something year old guy living with his mom and stepdad aspiring to be a stunt man. …
Abbott & Costello Meet the Invisible Man
I like Abbott & Costello movies, even though they do get repetitive after a while. And, suprisingly, I’ve never seen the film Abbott & Costello Meet the Invisible Man; until last night that is.
As far as their movies are concerned, this one wouldn’t be among their best. However, it …
27 Dresses (2008)

Failure to launch/Matthew Mcconagughey & Sarah Jessica Parker
I loved this movie tremendously. As a survivor of the dating scene, I think we have all encountered at least one guy like this. It seems like he is the perfect guy that you have long been searching for. He has all the great qualities and looks irresistable. Then …

The Prize Winner of Defiance Ohio (drama movie)
