Chaos (DVD)

At first glance I had thought that Chaos was another one of those B-rated action movies. Upon further review however, I noticed that the cast included both Jason Statham and Wesley Snipes. With these two high end actors on the payroll, I started to wonder how I missed reading up on this film earlier....

The Condemned (DVD)

The Condemned was not as bad as most people made it out to be and in my opinion was one of WWE’s better box office releases. I do agree that this movie did scream out Battle Royale when I first read its synopsis, but it did not seem as appalling because these men and women were death row criminals...

The Last Legion (Theaters)

As a fan of movies involving medieval times and legends I had high hopes for this film. Unfortunately the film did not live up to my expectations. The Last Legion was anything but epic. It dragged in so many areas and the storyline for the film although promising, was very poorly executed on the bigscreen....

Premonition (DVD)

I really had no intention of watching Premonition. I had read several reviews about it on IMDb and they were so terrible I decided to skip it altogether. However when I got up this morning, the opening credits were rolling, I ended up plopping myself on the couch to watch it with the rest of the early...

Shrek 3 (Theaters)

Last year I took my students to watch Over the Hedge for their end of the school year field trip. This year my students decided they wanted to watch Shrek the Third. I thought that the film fell very short of the previous two installments. It just wasn’t very entertaining. The first two films...

The Marine (DVD)

I still can’t believe I spent 90 minutes of my life watching this film. What instantly caught my attention was the star villain, Mr. Terminator II himself. His jokes were so corny I had to put a pillow over my face to cover my laughter. This was the only reason I gave it two stars. The jokes...

Eragon (DVD)

I am glad that I listened to the advice of a friend and waited for its release on DVD. Eragon is a B rated fantasy film. It reminded me very much of Sci-Fi’s Original Film, “Dragon Storm“. It had the fancy dragon and some decent special effects, but the acting was horrible, the...

Barnyard (DVD)

Males with utters. I thought that “ADULT” film creators would know the difference when they produced an animated movie. Female “COWS” have utters and male “BULLS” have horns. I could not get this discrepancy out of my head. I understand that the animals did many...
