This movie starring Jennifer Lopez and husband Marc Anthony about a puerto rican singer and his downfalls WAS HORRIBLE!. I HATED IT! The story was told in such a bad way. I never got a chance to get attached or feel anything for the characters because things happen so …

We recently purchased a copy of Red Eye for 99 cents at the local video store. So, I didn’t think it was going to be that good.

The main …

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 …

I have heard so many outrageous things said about the Twilight movie, and from people who haven’t even watched it. They have said that Edward Cullen isn’t a real vampire, that he’s a wimpy vampire, that he’s a pretty boy, and pretty much any other ridiculous thing that one …

The film is a comedy, rather odd one …

I saw this movie starring Kevin Costner. Based on IMDB, the movie is a thriller, with 5.4 rating. So I decided to see it, probably give it a chance, since I have great respect for the actor who stars in it.
Okay so this was the typical I-got-divorced-and-now-I-moving-to-another-house story. Kevin …
