Hope Springs (2003)

July 19th, 2010 · No Comments

Predictable and boring comedic romance about a guy that thinks he got dumped, runs away to America, crazy fiance’ follows him and he falls in love with a local girl. Oliver Platt is amusing as the mayor. imdb.com Colin Ware (played by Colin Firth) arrives in the most hopeful sounding town he can find to [...]

All About Steve (2009)

July 6th, 2010 · No Comments

This movie deserved the Razzie nods it got. Not completely awful, but certainly EVERYONE in this cast has done better work. imdb.com Convinced that a CCN cameraman is her true love, an eccentric crossword puzzler trails him as he travels all over the country, hoping to convince him that they belong together.

Baghead (2008)

December 8th, 2009 · No Comments

I had heard this was a great film. I was lied to. The plot was boring and predictable and the acting didn’t live up to it. And it was no comedy, no matter what they try to tell you. imdb.com Four struggling actors retreat to a cabin in Big Bear, California in order to write [...]

I Could Never Be Your Woman (2007)

August 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

Ok, Paul Rudd is on my fives. He is adorable and funny. There is not a Paul Rudd film I wouldn’t watch and probably very few I haven’t. So this film was a must. This film was never released in the theatres. One film festival and straight to DVD. It wasn’t a bad film, but [...]

Careless (2007)

June 30th, 2009 · No Comments

We started watching “Harold and Kumar Escape from Gutanamo Bay” and couldn’t make it past the prison guard oral sex scene and ended up here at Careless. Careless is a film about a finger and the relationships it brings. It was a fairly uninteresting film that told you less about any character you might want [...]

Homie Spumoni (2006)

June 24th, 2009 · No Comments

This film had such an ABC Family type of description that I was surprised to see that it was rated R. Now, why would this film be rated R? There was little to no sex in it, just some kissing and nothing more than you would see on a 10 pm television show as far [...]

After Alice (1999)

June 22nd, 2009 · No Comments

This low budget looking, boring film felt like nothing more than a long episode of Matlock with Kiefer Sutherland as the completely cliche’ overly predictable detective that smoked and drank too much and had bad music and even worse lighting. Oh, but he hung out at gay bars, befriended transvestite prostitutes and was psychic. Yep, [...]

Slingshot (2005)

June 18th, 2009 · No Comments

More people I like in a movie I didn’t. Maybe it is just me, but I just can’t take the “oh my childhood was so awful so I will use that as an excuse to be a complete ass” films anymore. Because when it comes down to it, you don’t fall for the daughter of [...]
