Last few movies I’ve seen:
Clerks X (4 out of 5) – Basically the original Clerks with bad video/sound but with a few different scenes and ending. Still enjoyable though.
Memoirs of a Geisha (4 out of 5) – I was surprised at how good this movie was. I was expecting it to be a 3 [...]

I went the whole year without going to see a movie in the theater. I can’t recall having done that in a number of years. I could do like my wife’s brother and post a top 10 list of movies that I haven’t seen but I won’t. There’s just never enough time anymore.

I must admit… I watched Fever Pitch last night with my wife. I like baseball and my wife likes chick flicks aka Drew Barrymore movies so it seemed like it would be a good movie for us. I was very wrong. Sadly, I found the movie to be rather dull and predictable. The fact that [...]

I finished watching Anchorman a couple of days ago. I have to say I didn’t like it very much. Steve Carell was funny. Christina Applegate is still pretty hot but nowhere near as hot as when she was on Married with Children. I originally gave this movie one star out of [...]

I finally got around to seeing Finding Neverland last night. About halfway through the movie I told my wife that I didn’t understand why this movie was up for a Golden Globe for best picture. We both agreed that it wasn’t that good. I was actually scoring it 2 out of [...]
