Finally!!! I could not seem to catch this film on cable for YEARS. We finally found it a bit edited and cut, but I finally got to see it. I am a fan of the Die Hard series. I considered at one point going to just rent them all on DVD to see them back [...]

Machete (2010) [Theatre]
September 6th, 2010 · No Comments
This was Danny Trejo’s film, everyone else was just a supporting character. Amazingly some great performances were given by some really not great actors. Steven Segal was perfect in his part with an over the top death scene that you just have to love as an actor. Don Johnson got to play an unbelievable dick [...]

Circus (2000)

More twists and back stabbing (both figuratively and literally) than you can even begin to follow in this film. Fun ending. Hard to follow. Lots of jump cuts. Peter Stormare looks like he is having a pretty great time. imdb.com Bruno, a sadistic criminal, wants clever con man Leo out of the way. Leo and [...]

Great voice cast in this sweet film about “Monsters” that defeat the aliens and save the world. The 3D thing is a bit overdone and really irrelevant when watching it on a television. But none of the effects were bothersome. imdb.com When a meteorite from outer space hits a young woman and turns her into [...]

Not as bad as anticipated. Sort of fun. Some nice nods to the original show. The Duane Johnson character was quite fun. Over all an ok watch. imdb.com Maxwell Smart, Agent 86 for CONTROL, battles the forces of KAOS with the more-competent Agent 99 at his side.

I had seen the other films in this series so I decided to watch this as I had the opportunity. Great driving and stunts, other than that the story was pretty boring, but the driving made up for that.Too angsty when not driving. Amazing opening driving scene. imdb.com An undercover cop infiltrates an underworld subculture [...]

Inkheart (2008)

Odd film about a man and his ability to make whatever he reads outloud happen and the effect it has on his family and the characters in books that come alive. Interesting concept. Some great effects. Probably a really good kids film (10 and older). Of course, it might make them never read aloud again. [...]
