Twilight
OK, either I’m starting to get really old or the movie Twilight wasn’t anything that lived up to all the hype and the obsession the fans are giving it. I watched it last night and thought it was the longest, most boring vampire film I’ve ever seen. And, believe …
Road Trip
When the movie Road Trip first came out, I will confess I wasn’t overly impressed by it. For the most part, it seemed to be pretty much every other college movie I’ve ever seen.
Then, after watching it for about the third time, I think I might have finally realized …

Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer
Ok, I’ve heard the song enough this holiday season to make my head explode. But, I have to admit the animated movie based on Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer was actually pretty good.

“Thor: The Dark World” movie
Phase 2 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe continues with the second “Thor” movie. Interestingly enough, while events from “The Avengers” are alluded to, this acts much more as a sequel to the first movie than the superhero ensemble flick.
I had high hopes for this one as it had …

Cosplay Complex anime
“Cosplay Complex,” an anime series about girls who compete in cosplay (dressing up), is raunchy is every sense of the word. Even though
it’s classified solely as comedy anime, it did not make me laugh at loud once. This extreme lack of humor is probably why there are only three
episodes. …

American Vampire

Final Destination 2 movie

Boys don’t cry

Up (2009) movie
