Friends of Doctor Who Make a Movie and Call It – “4.3.2.1.”

Ever wonder what happened to Mickey in the alternate universe?

Initially I thought this was a stupid “chick flick” film like a New Years Day or Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants or some madness like that. Then after watching the trailer I thought I was getting myself into a heist movie. Turns out neither were entirely true but as a whole, I was pleasantly surprised. [...]

RED BOX RED:NESDAY – Space + Prison Outbreak = “Lockout”

lockout-milk

Ok, so the trailer is kind of garbage… or at least I think it’s garbage. It looks like a made for tv film that you want to miss, but perhaps that’s just the kind of film I enjoy. Regardless of how little you know about a film, there’s always a handful of buzz words that guarantee a [...]

Go to a red box. Grow some personality. Love your life. And watch “Detention”

Detention

I don’t even know how someone writes a film like this. This is the most original, most pleasant surprise of a film I have seen, quite possibly in my entire life. That’s obviously saying a lot, but follow me here… This movie falls somewhere along the lines of Scott Pilgrim VS The World as far [...]

RED:NESDAY – “Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance”

If you get real bored, rent "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance" from RedBox

Why did I watch this? Why did I think the sequel would be any better when the first film fell just short of “Daredevil” in terms of quality super hero films. Why am I reviewing this at all? All of this and more will be answered… immediately! So first of all – there’s sort of [...]

Must be good it’s monday – “Submarine”

It’s funny, not in a laugh out loud sort of way I suppose, how much of a story a trailer can tell or at least how many memories it can spark. I often sit through a good movie and then feel a satisfying feeling about the film and ignore the review process. It is quite [...]

NOW ON NETFLIX – “Everything Must Go”

Watch "Everything Must Go" on Netflix

“Everything Must Go” must go nowhere. I loved this movie. I can always tell a good film when listening to the trailer gets me excited all over again. “Everything Must Go” feels like a low budget film with a new side of Ferrel that stumps “Stranger Than Fiction”, which I know is saying a lot. [...]

RED:NESDAY – “Ghost Protocol”

Rent "Ghost Protocol" from Red Box

I can’t believe I saw this movie. Leading up to it’s release I was thinking… no. No way. This HAS to be garbage. And then Rotten Tomatoes gave it like a 96% or something insane. Then I thought… oh man. If it’s good. I bet it’s epic. In the end, it was just all right, [...]

RED:NESDAY – “The Whistleblower”

Rent "The Whistleblower" from Red Box

As is true of many selections, I had no idea what to expect from this movie except that while standing in front of the red box machine, I checked out its rating on Rotten Tomatoes and when it checked out at over 70%, I gave it a go. Rave reviews of Rachel Weisz’s performance were [...]

RED:NESDAY – “The Guard”

Rent "The Guard" from Red Box

I really liked The Guard. I knew very little about it, and police comedies somehow never amuse me on paper, but about 10 minutes in, I’m glued. After checking its rating on Rotten Tomatoes, its easy to see why nearly everyone I’ve talked to knows about this movie. First of all, I LOVE Brendan Glesson, [...]

REDBOX RED:NESDAY – “Cowboys and Aliens”

Daniel Craig… Harrison Ford… that kid from Avatar the Last Airbender… what more could you want?!? I guess actually you could want a lot more so I don’t know why I started it out this way. I wanted a nicer Harrison Ford, a more obvious antagonist, and better character development. My girlfriend however thought the [...]
