The Last Exorcism: Part II

I enjoyed the first Last Exorcism, despite breaking a lot of the laws of the found footage gimmick and having a really lackluster ending, it was still pretty good. This movie sucked ass. Why? It's boring, it isn't scary, it isn't unintentiona...

I would say that Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull got a mixed fan response, I mean it has a 6.3 on IMDB. But with the way the internet works you will find it pretty hard to find a positive review of this movie. And this wouldn'...

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

Last Crusade is without a doubt my favorite of the Indiana Jones series, and I think a lot of people would agree. Sure there are some people who prefer Raiders of the Lost Ark, but this film is often regarded as one of the best sequels of all tim...

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

reviewed on December 20th, 2012 03:59PM

Temple of Doom is often considered the worst of the original trilogy, and some people even consider it the worst of the franchise. It all depends on the person. Me personally, I would say it's probably the weakest of all four, but there is some ...

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Die Hard 2: Die Harder

I had never noticed that Die Hard 2 got quite a bit of hate. I mean most people seem to like it, but ask most people and they will say that it's the weakest of the four. And I'd be lying if I said I didn't see why. In comparing the four this on...

Wreck-It Ralph

I'll keep this review nice and short so that I don't spoil anything. Or maybe I'm just lazy. Insidious is and example of how a PG-13 horror film can work. It isn't a bloodbath, and doesn't constantly throw false jump scares on you. This fil...

Blair Witch certainly is one of the polorizing movies. There is almost no middle ground when it comes to this film, you either love it, or hate it. For me, I'm on the love side. It certainly isn't the scariest film I've ever seen, but I love it...

reviewed on May 20th, 2012 03:31PM

Spielberg's War of the Worlds seems to split people right down the middle, half the people like it, half the people don't. And if you don't like this movie, I can totally understand why. But personally, I really, really like this movie, and woul...

Battleship

reviewed on May 14th, 2012 06:47PM

2011 gave us a whole lot of alien movie didn't it, but unfortunately, the only two really good ones I saw were Super 8, and Transformes 3. Apollo 18 was OK, but disappointing, and the rest sucked: Battle LA, Paul, Cowboys and Aliens, and the Darke...

Donnie Darko

reviewed on May 13th, 2012 06:51AM

Donnie Darko is truly an arthouse movie, and arthouse movies aren't really my thing. Sometimes I just really don't like them, such as 2001: A Space Oddysey, or the Tree of Life. Other times I like them, but find them so over-rated such as last y...

Ed Wood

reviewed on May 7th, 2012 08:22PM

If you, like me, at any point want to get into anything involving film, then you better watch this movie. The tale of what some people call the worst director ever will show how hard the film buisiness can be. Tim Burton is very good at directin...

The Goonies

reviewed on May 6th, 2012 08:16PM

Why did I wait so long before watching this movie? If I had seen this movie as a kid my imagination would have gone wild. When I was younger, I was always into the whole Treasure Hunting thing, always making clues and hiding them and having othe...

The Avengers

reviewed on May 4th, 2012 11:02PM

If you had asked me a few months ago if I was exited for the Avengers, I would have said, "A little bit." But then the trailer made my jaw drop when I saw the giant snake decepticon from Transformers 3 crash through that building while chasing Ir...

Captain America: The First Avenger

reviewed on May 3rd, 2012 07:16PM

It seems Marvel saved the best for last, at least in my opinion. Captain America is my personal favorite of the five pre-Avengers movies. And I think the main reason for that is that I actually really liked the plot of this movie. The other fou...

Thor

reviewed on May 2nd, 2012 07:09PM

Thor seems like a movie that should have been really really bad when you hear the premise. The God of Thunder is punished by his father for disobeying him. So he sends him to Earth where he meets a college student and falls in love. Meanwhile h...

Iron Man 2

reviewed on May 1st, 2012 06:41PM

I know I will get a lot of hate for this, but I actually liked this movie more than the first. Now I'm not saying that this film is better than the first, I guess in terms of writing, this is the worst film. However, I had more fun watching this...

The Incredible Hulk

reviewed on April 30th, 2012 06:32PM

This was actually the last Avengers movie that I watched, I saw it for the first time a couple months ago, and my opinion really hasn't changed much. Basically all I can say is, The Incredible Hulk is good, it wasn't great, wasn't bad. The film ...

Iron Man

reviewed on April 29th, 2012 12:06PM

Now for the past three years, I have been saying how much this film is over-rated. I saw it either late 2008, or early 2009, and eventually completely forgot about it. I couldn't remember much from the film other than a few small details. Howev...

The Cabin in the Woods

reviewed on April 20th, 2012 08:35PM

Well after weeks of hearing how great the Cabin in the Woods is, I finally saw it. Now I avoided pretty much anything having to do with this film. I didn't read or watch any reviews, didn't look up any details about it, and when any trailer for ...

The Raid: Redemption

reviewed on April 19th, 2012 07:54PM

Now I saw this movie for one reason, and one reason only, it was hyped up beyond belief. I think the only two other movies that have come out this year that have been more hyped up are "The Hunger Games," and "The Cabin in the Woods." I really h...

Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events

reviewed on April 2nd, 2012 09:18PM

Let me just say this right now, I FRICKEN LOVE THIS MOVIE, this is one of, if not THE, most underrated movie I have ever seen. It isn't a film that's hated by a lot of people, although some fans of the book don't care for it, I actually saw a com...

Battle: Los Angeles

reviewed on March 31st, 2012 11:13AM

Battle LA isn't a terrible movie by any means, the effects are good, the acting is descent, the sets are great, and it does have a few entertaining moments. However, for the most part, I just was bored throughout most of the film. Now I didn't hav...

Mirror Mirror

reviewed on March 27th, 2012 05:04PM

When I saw the trailer for this movie, I just thought it would be absolutely horrible. The dwarfs looked annoying,and Julia Roberts seemed annoying. So after seeing it, is it as bad as I thought it would be. Well no, it's just really boring. Le...

The Hunger Games

reviewed on March 24th, 2012 09:48PM

(Spoilers) When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I said to myself, "yeah, that looks interesting, might check it out on DVD." Over the next few months the hype exploaded for this film, and then for my birthday I got the first book. And a...

Run Lola Run

reviewed on March 19th, 2012 04:11PM

I'm not normally one who watches foreign language movies, before this the only one's I really remember seeing were the two REC movies. This was a blind buy for me, it was a two pack with la Femme Nakita, another French film, both on blu-ray for 1...

Project X

reviewed on March 13th, 2012 09:16AM

Ever wonder what would happen if the monster never hit in "Cloverfield?" I wanted to see this film, mostly because I'm a huge fan of the "found footage" gimmick. I loved Cloverfield, all three Paranormal Activities, Blair Witch, and plenty o...

The Woman in Black

reviewed on February 28th, 2012 08:14PM

Daniel Radcliffe's first film role after the end of Harry Potter is playing a lawyer in the early 1900s. Ok, that's cool. This film is both an adabtation, and a remake, but I have neither read the book, nor saw the original film, so I went into ...

The Devil Inside

reviewed on February 25th, 2012 03:05PM

Ok, before we start, I LOVE, the found footage style of filmmaking. I loved Cloverfield, Blair Witch, all three Paranormal Acitities, Chronicle, Quarantine, REC, I even liked Diary of the Dead, the Last Exorcism, and though Apollo 18 was ok. But...

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (Part 1)

reviewed on February 25th, 2012 08:47AM

I'm not a Twilight Fan, or a Twilight hater, I just don't care. I didn't like the first film, it wasn't horrible but it was just so boring. Then I saw the second one, and was surprised, it wasn't really good, but it was entertaining at parts. Then...

The Artist

reviewed on February 25th, 2012 08:24AM

The Artist is going to win best picture. Don't try and fool yourselfs people, this film is going to win. True Hugo was nominated for more awards, but this film has been so critically praised that Hugo barely stands a chance. Not that I'm real...

The Tree of Life

reviewed on February 25th, 2012 08:09AM

Tomorrow is the 84th annual Academy Awards, and of all the films on the best picture list, the one people seem to be complaining about is Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, for getting mixed reviews. Yet no one is complaining about The Tree of ...

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

reviewed on February 23rd, 2012 05:09PM

I haven't seen the first Sherlock Holmes in a while, I bought it as a blind buy and when I watched it, I thought it was pretty good, but stopped short of greatness. I just thought that the villian was kind of lame, I mean we knew who he was, and ...

The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn

reviewed on February 21st, 2012 04:37PM

We got a lot of good animated movies in 2011, Kung Fu Panda 2, Rio, Rango, and Whinnie the Pooh, but Steven Spielberg's, The Adventures of Tintin was my favorite. Maybe it is just because I'm a Spielberg fanboy and like anything he does. Not tru...

Paranormal Activity 3

reviewed on February 11th, 2012 03:25PM

(There may be some Minor Spoilers) When I saw the first Paranormal Activity, I really liked it. Then I saw the second Paranormal Activity and loved that movie even more. It upped the scares, added quite a bit to the story, and had better char...

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

reviewed on February 11th, 2012 03:01PM

Late last month the Academy posted it's nominees for the 84th annual academy Awards. They had nine best picture nominees including this film. This surprised and even angered many people because the film has a 46 percent rating on rotten Tomatoes...

Fight Club

Before we start, I should tell you all that I have actually only seen this movie one, and that was around a year and a half ago, so I am mostly going on memory. Also there will be spoilers. Is Fight Club a good film? Yeah...theres really noth...

Cloverfield

reviewed on February 4th, 2012 08:20AM

Now I love the "found footage" style of filmmaking. Paranormal Activity, Blair Witch, Quarantine, all great films. But Cloverfield is not only my favorite of this genra, but it one of my favorite movies of all time, number 4 to be exact. How do...

I wanted to LOVE this movie, I had heard nothing, and I mean nothing but good things about this movie. And of all the reviews I've read and watched, 95% of them said the movie was a masterpiece, not just good, but a phenomenal film. It has a 93%...

Well, here we are, we are finally in the year 2012, 12 months from now we will all be dead. Nah, just kidding, we all know that that won't happen, but if there is one good thing that has come from this whole 2012 doomsday phenomenon, it would be ...

Transformers: Dark of the Moon

reviewed on September 5th, 2011 08:42PM

A bit of a guilty pleasure of mine, I'm not going to deny that the Bay Transformers movies are quote upon quote, pretty dumb. But the first and third one were at the very least fun to watch, and feature some of the best special effects I've ever ...

2001: A Space Odyssey

reviewed on September 2nd, 2011 06:23PM

I finally saw 2001: A Space Oddysey about a month ago after almost a lifetime of hearing how great it was. How it changed the art of cinema, and is Stanley Kubrick's Magnum Opus. Then a little bit before I watched it, I saw the review by Confuse...

The Last Airbender

reviewed on August 6th, 2011 09:13AM

Before we begin, I would like to point out that The Last Airbender cartoon is my favorite animated TV show of all time. My God, I haven't seen so much hatred for a motion picture in a long time, maybe Dragonball Evolution, but it seems most peopl...

Unbreakable

So, a lot of you are probably asking, why, why do I like The Happening and The Last Airbender more than Unbreakable Easy, its BORING!!! The film is one of the most depressing, unsympethetic movies I've seen. There are maybe two comedic moments, ...

The Happening

After I did my ranking of all the M. Night Shyamalan movies, or at least the ones that I've seen, I got a few comments basically saying that puting The Happening and Last Airbender above Unbreakable was incredibly stupid. Now don't get me wrong, ...

Well, here we are, the end of a francise that started a decade ago. Let's just get it out of the way, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 is great. It's an emotionally satisfying conclusion that, yes, did have me on the verge of tears, I...

It seemed like it was destiny for this to be my least favorite in the series, or at least one of my least favorites. The book is my least favorite of all the books, it wasn't bad, there were just so many moments were it dragged that everytime I r...

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

reviewed on July 7th, 2011 01:59PM

Let me just say this, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a good film, but as an adabtation, it's only ok. In terms of an adabtation it's basically about as good as The Last Airbender, as in, they got enough for the basic story, but ther...

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

reviewed on July 4th, 2011 12:39PM

Before we start, let me just say this, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is my favorite book of all time. It has action, suspense, and has finally taken a dark enough turn. The movie adabtation just wasn't as good. Oh don't get me wrong, I th...

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Of all the Harry Potter movies, this one is often considered the favorite among most of the viewers. And while I love it, and say it is a rather good adabtation, I still find this to be one of the weaker films in the series. To me, it relies so ...
