Crash
A bunch of people with various backgrounds and races all collide in Los Angeles. I had to trick Jer into seeing this movie. I didn’t tell him that this movie is about everyone basically being racist, which could be true, but is still a horrible thought. I knew that...
A History of Violence
A small town diner owner stops a robbery, which draws the attention of a scary Ed Harris saying he isn’t the man he claims to be. The overall feeling while watching this movie was stillness. It is a small town with Tom (Viggo Mortensen) running a diner while trying...
Domino
I rented this out of the “Red Box.” I don’t know if you have them or not but they are basically dvd kiosks in grocery stores and what not for a nightly rental fee of $1. So convenient and cheap. I do this every once in a while with...

Family Stone
Dear Family Stone You were an okay movie, funny, emotional with a cool house. I can see how many chicks would dig you. However your overly perfect romance for everyone in the end tied up in a perfect ribbon is fake and irritating! I want to strangle you with...
Constantine
Keanu Reeves has a skill where he can recognize angels and demons on earth. He isn’t thrilled to have this ability. This movie looked pretty stupid from the previews, yet someone at work said I had to watch it so they lent me the DVD. It was better than...
Match Point

Elf
Will Ferrell does not exactly fit in with the rest of the normal-sized elves at the North Pole. He is sent to New York to reunite with his biological father. I was disappointed with this movie. I knew it was a kid’s movie, but I thought it would be...
