Starring:

Jason Statham
Mickey Rourke
Curtis (50 Cent) Jackson



Hubster said this movie was a remake of an old movie, he thought was French. I sure believe him since he knew most of what was happening throughout the movie.
It was a slower paced movie, but still very interesting. You really just never knew what would happen.

Saturday, December 18 2010 at 4:03 pm

Starring:

Katherine Heigl
Joshua Duhamel



Funny movie right from the start. The chemistry was really evident and they played the parts well. I even shed a tear o two in this one, but it wasn't a bad thing. Made me laugh all over the place!
Even hubby liked the movie so it couldn't be that bad.

Good movie about revenge. A lot better than I thought it would be. A little predictable at times. Some great cars and racing scenes.

Starring:

Kevin Bacon
Renee Zellweger
Steven Weber

I thought ut was ok and the hubster hated it. There was some sensitive parts throughout, but a solid story. It turned out better at the very end. I can't explain without giving it away but it just felt complete.

Sarah Jessica Parker

This was a great addition to the Sex & The City show and first movie. I really liked where the movie took us, and what topics it hit on. A perfect movie for any Sex & The City fan or for any woman/mother.

This movie was so slow and boring I couldn't finish it to the end. There was only one good scene at the very begininning of th emovie, after that it was just another cop drama.

Accidents Happen (2009) by fredamans
Saturday, July 10 2010 at 1:57 pm

Starring:

Geena Davis

Very cute opening song!
Interesting beginning and quite humorous. Shows many different sides of accidents happening, all very enlightening in some way or another. The premise made for a great story, but could have been executed a little better.
Predictable ending but good.

Starring:

Ashton Kutcher
Katherine Heigl
Tom Sellesck
Catherine O'hara


This was one of those movies that when you see the previews, it looks amazing. Then you see the film and realize all the best parts are in the ad for it.
Funny in parts, slow in others. Mostly slow though.

A fantastic classic who-done-it movie that keeps you guessing. Very well made for that era! This movie has lasted and will continue to. Some very funny moments throughout!

Sunshine Cleaning 2009 by fredamans
Saturday, July 3 2010 at 11:20 am

Starring:

Amy Adams, Steve Zahn, Emily Blunt and Alan Arkin


Intriguing at the very beginning, and then it fizzled off and got boring. For me, it never really picked up again. The story itself I found too bland.

*swearing and graphic content*

The Book of Eli by fredamans
Saturday, April 10 2010 at 12:08 pm

Starring:

Denzel Washington and Mila Kunis

It took a while to understand the setting and era, actually half of the movie was mildly confusing, but right at the end, the whole thing comes together beautifully. You then get the whole story, and it is a pretty good one at that.

There is foul language and violent scenes, so not for kids.

The closest thing I can compare it to, is a Black Mad Max beyond Thunderdome... waaaaaay beyond.

Crazy Heart by fredamans
Saturday, March 6 2010 at 11:43 am

Starring Beau Bridges and Maggi Gyllenhall.

Okay, so here is another run of the mill down on your luck country cowboy singer movie. It's like watching the one about Johhny Cash & June Carter, except this movie is based on false events. How do you get into a movie like that? I couldn't figure it out.

It was bland. I, for the life of me, can't figure out why all the nominations for awards. I mean, Beau played a great part... and Maggie gets props for having to make out with an ewwy old guy... but really best picture? I think not!

I don't recommend you spend money to see it. It's not like it was The Blind Side. Now THAT was money worthy. Wait for this film to come out on video and save your hard earned cash.

Shutter Island by fredamans
Thursday, March 4 2010 at 10:29 am

Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio,  Ben Kingsley

This was a good movie overall.

The first half was a little confusing and bland, but halfway through it gets a little scary and the pace picks up. Once the story starts to unfold the movie gets a lot better. Then I have to say, I hate the ending. Stopped a little too abruptly for me and left me hanging.

If you are looking for a typical Sorcese movie, keep looking.... this is unlike anything he has done.

There is also graphic content, so do not view with children.

Motherhood by fredamans
Saturday, February 27 2010 at 10:20 am

Starring Uma Thurman, Minnie Driver and Anthony Edwards

What a great story! This look at motherhood and what we all have to go through, it was a complete hit if you ask me! This movie showed just how hard our job is, and what we really have to deal with.

A great movie that all mom's will thoroughly enjoy! The men, not so much. It is a chick flick!

This was Drew Barrymore's directorial debut, and she aims to please! This movie was fantastic!! She really captured the true meaning behind the Rollergirls and the Derby! I have always been a fan and remembered why watching this film!

Kudos!!

The Road by fredamans
Sunday, January 24 2010 at 12:44 pm

Starring Viggo Mortensen

This movie is about what life will be like when the population is desolate and the earth is dying. I had a hard time wanting to watch this. It was slow-paced. But for the nature of the film is was just ok.
Not kid friendly either.
Frankly not adult friendly. lol

World's Greatest Dad by fredamans

Starring Robin Williams.

What a weirdly good movie. Again a bit of a touchy subject, but in the end I really liked the movie. I found myself asking if I would do the same as Robin did in the film.
Not something you watch with kids.

What a touchy subject, but more than that it was a fantastic movie. Adapted from an Alice Seabold novel no less. I highly recommend, but no kids!!!

This was an epic movie, but with a great story comes length.

Awesome action, great story, but it was too long. I think for what the director made, he could've made two movies out of it.

Still worth watching!

This was a really great movie, though it was quite long. I did like it, but still think the book was a little bit better. I recommend you watch regardless.

  5/5


I was thinking this would be such a sad movie, too much of a chick flick for me.... man was I wrong!

It was sad in the end, but not like you think. They had a life together that people only dream of, time travel or not. It was a great film for people who are in love. This movie really shows the value of true love!! A must see!!

Crossing Over by fredamans
Thursday, June 25 2009 at 10:32 am

Okay this movie is not for the faint of heart. This film almost reminds me of Crash the way the stories of each person inter-connect. However the subject material is more upsetting. It is in regards to immigrants and landed immigrants turned citizens.  (U.S. based.) The trials and tribulations these people endure is what makes the movie. I usually am not into dramas, however this one was fantastic!

Starring, Ray Liotta, and Ashley Judd.

The Soloist by fredamans

Starring Robert Downey J.R. and Jamie Foxx.

This was a great story about a man with a gift like no other, and also about a friendship that took more to grow. I think all who watch this will be impressed. Also fab music, if you like Bach and Beethoven.

4/5
