Hella

The Gloria Estefan concert last night was tons of fun. We started off at a friend’s place and spent about an hour chatting and watching a comedy tape. After some wine, beer, and spirits, we headed out the door and caught a cab down to the Wachovia Center. Upon entering the parking lot, it was [...]

Some may call me crazy for paying 8 bucks to go see this in the theater but I got exactly what I expected. It was pretty funny in parts and totally obscene throughout. The storyline was weak and the acting bad (except for Ben Stiller who must have had trouble keeping a straight face in [...]

Last week I was on vacation and I took that opportunity to catch up on some reading. I fiddled around in a few books but mainly spent my time with Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. I whipped through it just in time to catch the movie last Thursday up in Edwards, Colorado at [...]

With the long holiday weekend and a few movie options that I hadn’t seen, I decided to check out Raising Helen. Ok, so this is a total girl movie; so what. I really like Joan Cusack and John Corbett and the previews looked interesting. While I haven’t seen too much of Kate Hudson, I liked [...]

This is one sequel that really got better than the original. I re-watched the first one just a few days ago so I’d have a good comparison. The addition of characters, an interesting story, and a laundry list of humorous lines made this a really great movie. It’s fun to see how traditional fairy tales [...]

The plot of this movie is rather transparent. A lot of the little details were emphasized a bit too much and it was easy to remember the emphasis and tie them into what would happen. Overall it was decent but Denzel certainly carries the cast. On a side note, it was funny how Legally Blonde [...]

I think I already saw this one. It was called Battlefied Earth that time. Ok, maybe not quite that bad … but very close. The best parts of this movie are the soundtrack and the comic relief. There are a few parts that are hilarious. Also a relief was the ending where I could exit [...]

I loved this movie. The plot was good without being too cheesy and it was consistently funny throughout. The kids were really cute even though they make raising a family look pretty scary. The foil of the suburban Chicago family couldn’t have been better. Both the mom and the kid in that family were cast [...]

This movie was second on the afternoon’s list. I was expecting a lot more comedy and a lot less seriousness. The more serious scenes in the movie were somewhat awkward for me. From the previews, I guess I expected just a lot of laughs. I really think this is one of those movies that is [...]

This is the first of three movies I have rented for today and it’s the first one I decided to watch. While definitely not my favorite, it wasn’t as painful to watch as Lost in Translation or Dreamcatcher (or Battlefield Earth for that matter). I’m still not a fan of this movie. I usually like [...]
