This Patrick Swayze movie is one of my very favorites. Patrick is wonderful in the role of Jack Charles where, for the first time, he plays a father. The problem with the marketing of the movie, though, is that people misunderstood the title and thought the movie …

I’m not a huge Will Ferrell fan so I kind of figured I wouldn’t like his movie Land of the Lost.

Rain in the Mountains (2007)
As movies go this is best viewed with plans of lobbing popcorn at the screen from time to time. The plot was shaky and the acting so bad it was amusing. However, it is not entirely without merit for a small subsection of the population living in the Pacific …

Shinobi
This movie, titled Shinobi, is about 1 hr and 56 minutes and I cried while watching. It tells a story of love, action and adventure, and there is also some violent images, so the rating R is there.

Just Friends comedy

I was a little wary of seeing the movie “Baby Mama.” Its rated PG-13, first of all, and I’ve noticed that most PG-13 movies these days are geared towards the youngsters who are limited to that rating. Second of all, the topic itself… the concept of a hopeful mother …
Movie: “The House Bunny”
“The House Bunny” came from the same writers that created “Legally Blonde”; while “Bunny” is definitely not the instant classic that “Legally Blonde” was, it’s a cute movie of its own right.

Movie: The Last Airbender
The Last Airbender is a movie I would not pay for to see again. However, that doesn’t mean it was necessarily a bad movie. The effects were dead on, the casting was great, and the accuracy to the cartoon wasn’t bad either.
