Whatever happened to the Real American Hero? Like most red-blooded American males, I grew up playing with GI Joes, so when this one was first mentioned I thought - waaaay cool, then I saw the preview and I thought, oh no! For some odd reason, the studio didn't allow early screenings or any press to see this film. Maybe they wanted our ten bucks to help dilute the … [Read more...] about GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra
Death at a Funeral
"My father was an exceptional man!"

Yes, that's right, the same … [Read more...] about Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Marley and Me tells a story with believable characters challenged with simple, yet global issues most of us will relate to at some point in life. Set in South Florida, (where I am both from and live in still) this film will take you back … [Read more...] about Marley and Me
