25th Hour

Edward Norton has one last day of partying before serving seven-year jail sentence for drug dealing. I enjoyed this movie quite a bit. Edward Norton wants to say goodbye to his friends from school and his dad before going off to jail. Most of the characters were great and...

A Guy Thing

Don’t ya just hate when you wake up in the bed with a pretty girl who just happens to be the cousin of your fiance? We also watched this with Keiran and Erin the same night we watched Equilibrium. It took me a while to remember the movie, since...

The Devil’s Backbone

Creepy ghost story taking place in a Spanish orphanage during the Civil War. When I added a bunch of movies to Netflix, I had some foreign films here and there. Unintentionally, three of them showed up at the same time. By the time we reached this one, Jer was...

Bruce Almighty

Jim Carrey is offered the chance to be God for a while. Compared to other Jim Carrey movies, this was not as funny as Ace Ventura or Liar, Liar, but it was amusing....

Daredevil

Radioactive waste is at it again in the superhero world. This time it makes this guy blind, which in turn, makes him an acrobatic martial arts superhero. Of course! Daredevil Starring: Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, Colin Farrell Directed by: Mark Steven Johnson Written by: Mark Steven Johnson Rating: PG-13...

Equilibrium

Sci-fi movie where people believe emotions are evil so people must medicate themselves to not feel or face death. The fight scenes are awesome and completely not believable, but still very much fun to watch. Beyond that, this movie was predictable and not very exciting....

Down With Love

An homage to the ’50s and ’60s romantic comedies, but who cares about that. It stars Ewan McGregor and that’s all we really need to know. It was a very silly movie. It did not take itself seriously at all. It had sexual innuendos everywhere with people making shocked...

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines

No Linda Hamilton or drunk Edward Furlong. Nick Stahl is in Furlong’s place as the new future leader of the world who must combat a girlie terminator that can flip her legs around to strangle you with them. Fancy. I enjoyed it. It was total summer fluff action movie....
