She's out of my League


She's out of my League was a pretty good movie. Unlike many comedies it offered a great message as well as a good laugh.

This movie is another good date night movie. The movie explores just what love can do and that there really isn't anything such as a league that is out of your reach. All people are assessable if you can love each other. In it's exploration of this theme the characters encounter some pretty humorous situations.

If you have a movie night in the future I urge you to grab a copy of She's out of my League. You won't be disappointed.

The Bounty Hunter


This may be the perfect date night movie. It has that chick flick edge for the girl and the action adventure edge for the boy.

My boyfriend was reluctant to let me rent this, but rent it we did and he loved it. Not only does the movie offer romance, it offers humor and action.

It has something to please just about anyone and I highly recommend it for you next movie night. Both partners can enjoy this movie.

So go grab a copy of The Bounty Hunter, some popcorn and a blanket to snuggle under.

Furry Vengeance


Furry Vengeance can best be described as ok. It wasn't great it wasn't horrible, it was just ok.

It had a good message and many environmentalists will fully agree with that message, however the movie was mediocre.

It had funny parts but it didn't have me rolling off the couch. It would make an ok family movie, there were parts that might be inappropriate for young children.

I don't recommend this movie if your are looking for a great movie. If you just want something to pass the time then this is the movie for you.

Shutter Island


I figured it out in 20 minutes (seriously I checked the DVD player timer). There are all kinds of foreshadowing in the beginning.

Other then the fact it was predictable it was a pretty decent movie. Even with me knowing what was going on it was entertaining.

It is a tad bit violent so I would recommend this movie for an after the kiddies are in bed movie.

Kickass


I didn't want to see this movie. I thought it was one of those mock movies like Date Movie and Scream that made fun of movies that had already been made. My boyfriend told me to watch it.

It wasn't like I thought at all. This movie was GREAT!! It has funny, witty and highly entertaining.

I love this movie. It is a great movie for comic book nerds, super hero freaks and everyone else.

I insist that everyone see this movie.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid


I have been watching a lot of kids movies lately. Diary of a Wimpy Kid looked interesting in the preview and I have never read the book. With that being said this movie sucked some big ones.

It may just be one of those movies that only a child could love because it did not hold my attention at all, nor do I think I will watch it ever again.

It was kind of gross and well childish..... It had a hidden message but it wasn't anything great.

If you have children they will probably enjoy it, but it isn't really an adult movie.

Planet 51


I love love loved this movie!! It is delightfully hilarious and has humor for both children and adults for example when the astronaut is naked "That is a funny place to have an antenna." Children won't understand the reference but those of us about the age of 16 do.

My favorite character was Rover, a machine, who slightly reminded me of Wall-E. He was funny even though he doesn't speak. When you first meet him you'll understand, just wait for the alien bug.

I would highly recommend this movie for people of all ages. It is hilarious!!!

Youth in Revolt


I am really beginning to like Michael Cera as an actor. Youth in Revolt is just another step in Cera's journey to become one of my favorite comedic actors.

Youth in Revolt offers humor, love, and action. You get a love story, a child in a bad home situation, explosions, comedy, and sexual tension all in one movie.

Cera's character develops and alternate ego that gets him in extreme trouble all to get a girl.

Find out if he succeeds in Youth in Revolt.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs


I put off seeing this movie because I didn't think it would be any good. One night of extreme boredom and lack of anything better on Netflix I watched this movie.

To my surprise it was actually really great!! It had a bad guy vs. a good guy, a dream, and even a moral to the story.

For being a cartoon this movie had pretty much everything people of all ages can enjoy.

This is defiantly a movie I would recommend for family night.

Clash of the Titans (2010)


Overall this was an enjoyable movie. It was action packed and held my attention. I would recommend that any action lover see this movie.

It does not have much sub-plot. The love connection is really played out and its pretty straight forward.

Be warned that the writers of this movie did not have a background in classical mythology. The story is not accurate in regards to Greek myth. If you want to watch this because of its mythological aspect you are better off researching through books and websites, then this movie.

If you want entertainment by all means watch this movie, if you want academic fact seek alternative means.
