From the Deep South to the California coast and back, the hunt is on in this provocative race-against-time suspenser based on the best-selling novel by James Patterson. Ashley Judd plays resourceful, strong-willed McTiernan. She's the lone escapee from Casanova's hidden lair... and determined to rescue the fellow captives she left behind. Morgan Freeman is Cross, a master at solving the unsolvable. But there's more than his reputation at stake: This time one of the victims is his niece in this "taut, riveting thriller" (Fox-TV).

My Thoughts:
I havent seen this before today. Watched the thrailer and heard good things about it. And with Morgan Freeman you always get solid stuff. And the movie was a decent dark thriller, with a dark story. And Mr.Freeman and Ms.Judd again as the main characters. Works well together in this one too. But not as well as they did in "High Crimes" IMHO. And the movie had some twist and turns here and there, but you knew how it would end. All in all, a decent movie. Check it out for a cheap penny.

My Thoughts:

This is one I picked up on a whim when I saw it on a good sale at work. I found it to be a cute and fun film. The story easily kept my attention. While it is slightly longer then most animated films I have seen it... it seemed to be over before I knew it. A good film the entire family can enjoy. Worth the time put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:
So, that was a fun movie. I watched the first one (Olympus has fallen) when that first came out, and i enjoyed that one too. So i decided to get this one aswell when it came out. And the movie is a cool sequel. A bit over the top story (wich often makes for the good action movies) Some great moments here and there, alot of shooting and explotions ofc. And we get a Gerard Butler who saves the world again from the bad guys. And this blurayset offers great picture and sound aswell. All in all a fun and good action movie.

Well, after hearing only good things about this one, and having it in my unwatched pile for ages. I finally decided to check it out. And to be fair, the movie was a decent horrorflick. Even tho the story was a simple one, a bit different on tho. They made it work with what they got. Some great moments trough-out. And this bluray offers some great picture and sound aswell. Not a perfect horrorflick, but a fairly decent one. If you go in to this one not expecting too much i think you will enjoy it. Check it out for a cheap penny. And the chick in this was kinda hot too.

I used to play the games years ago (definitely want to get back to the games as well)... and watched this film when it first came out. When I popped it in today all I really could remember is that I enjoyed it. And that stayed true today.I loved the character and loved the action.And I think Angelina Jolie did a great job portraying the character. I felt this one was definitely worth the time put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:
Well, that was better then i expected it to be. Morgan Freeman was back as Dr.Cross and this time with a bit different story and agenda this time. I liked the story really. Intense and suspencefull trough-out. And as with the first movie this had a cool twist that i actually didnt see coming (maby its me that is slow) but i liked it. Morgan Freeman does another great performance as Dr.Cross. All in all this was a real good thriller. I wouldnt mind if they would make another movie. Check them out!

My Thoughts:

This is a film I never even heard of before finding the blu-ray. I must say... I enjoyed it quite a bit. Kevin Smith directing an action-comedy. So that means lots of fun and laughs. Though I must admit that I was never much of a Tracy Morgan fan... I didn't mind him in this one at all. And I really liked both Bruce Willis and Seann William Scott. And being a Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan it was fun to see the small part that Michelle Trachtenberg had as Bruce Willis' daughter. This is one I definitely recommend... the storyline is both fun and action packed. The entire cast did a fine job... well worth the time put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:

I enjoyed this one a lot. It has a good story... as well as some good action. I will say that for me... the movie didn't age well. I at least remember it being slightly better then I feel it is today. Clint Eastwood was the man... and is still the man. I do think he has improved as an actor since this movie though. Not that he was bad in this... as I thought he did fine. But I do believe he has grown as an actor and has improved in his movies since this one. That being said... it really is a good movie... well worth the time put in to watch it.

Academy Award® winner* Kate Winslet (Revolutionary Road) delivers a dynamic performance in this "tale of eroticism, secrecy and guilt" (Claudia Puig, USA Today) set in turbulent post-Nazi Germany.

Directed by three-time Academy Award® nominee** Stephen Daldry (Billy Elliot, The Hours) and featuring Ralph Fiennes (The Duchess) as the grown man still reeling from Hanna's influence, The Reader is a "moving, romantic and poignant story" (Roger Friedman, Fox News) about the difficult distance between truth and reconciliation.

My Thoughts:

I had some hope for a decent movie when I pulled this one out... as it had a couple decent actors in it. But unfortunately they really had nothing to work with here. It is a story line that had potential.. but they just ruin what interesting story line they had with unwanted and unneeded narration. Most the time basically telling us what we already know by watching the picture on the screen. The writing was off for this film... it felt like we were watching a '50s Sci-Fi film made in the mid '70s! This film is only about 70 minutes... and I had a hard time making it through it. First I was fighting off falling asleep. Then I found myself more interested in looking at facebook on my phone then I was the TV screen. Don't bother with this one!

Woohoo! Tomorrow is the first of October.... meaning my month long horror/Halloween marathon!

Trying something a bit different this year. Years ago I had the record of 103 films watched in the one month. Of course I was not working at the time. So this year my roommate Danae Cassandra and I are going to combine efforts to try see if we together can beat the 103 films in the month. Meaning we have to each watch at least 52 films each. Since we both work full time this will be a challenge. On the plus side we do each have a week vacation this month. On the minus side we have a lot going on in October including a good friend's wedding preparations and wedding.

So get ready to see lots of horror reviews! At least from me... not sure if she will post reviews here since she doesn't normally.

I never heard of this film till I found a copy cheap at the pawn shop. I decided to get it on the strong cast it has. And I must say... I am happy I did. I had a lot of laughs watching this one. And there is even a few tear jerker moments in it. The entire cast did a wonderful job. They really made you care about the characters. The film tackles the trials and tribulations of being parents in a fun way. If you have not seen this one... I definitely recommend it. Well worth the time put in to watch it.

Looking forward to check out the rest.
