D-Train – movie review
—
e Grade: B The D Train was not at all what I was expecting. When I saw Jack Black was starring, I assumed it was going to be a raw comedy. There was comedy but there is also a darker side that showcases the downward spiral of one man’s obsession. There is one scene in…

True Story – movie review
—
Grade: A I was super excited to see this movie. I had been wondering how James Franco and Jonah Hill could pull of a dramatic role. They both left me in awe. I’m not sure which one impressed me more. The movie revolved around the growth of Franco and Hill’s “relationship”. The way that they…

Unfriended – movie review
—
Grade: F Unfriended made me furious, I actually felt my blood pressure rising. There was not one redeeming quality about the movie. The ending was atrocious, with absolutely no wrap up. The entire premise was annoying. If acting was a thing in this movie, they all forgot how to do it. Usually you have one…

It Follows – movie review
—
Grade: C Let me start by saying I’ve read fantastic reviews about It Follows, saying it’s the scariest movie of 2015. What I wonder is, what in the world were they thinking? Was the last horror movie they saw back in the 70’s? The movie drug on so slowly and there was absolutely no mystery.…

Fast and the Furious – Furious 7 Movie Review
I have been waiting on pins and needles for this movie. I am undeniably Paul Walker’s biggest fan. (Based on an extensive poll I conducted during lunch today with my daughter.) I had absolutely no idea how they were going to proceed with his last film. They didn’t disappoint me. It was tastefully done;…

The Longest Ride – movie review
—
Grade: B The Longest Ride was all in all a pretty good movie. I felt good watching it, I even caught myself smiling throughout the whole thing. It’s a very feel good kind of movie, a real “All American” love story. They took two extremely different things, being bull-riding and art, and mixed the two…

Brotherly Love – movie review
—
Grade: C Brotherly Love was an unremarkable movie — not bad, just entirely forgettable. It skimmed over what could have been a really good story. I found a bunch of plot holes, if it weren’t for those it would have been better. Also, there needed to be more back story. You were introduced to a…

Get Hard – movie review
—
Grade: B+ Kevin Hart and Will Ferrell were both awesome! I was really impressed with how well they played off of each other. This is easily my second favorite Will Ferrell movie, after Step Brother of course. His character was so funny that I missed a bunch of the movie by laughing so hard. Kevin…

Movie Review – Do You Believe? – A Film to Help You Find Hope
—
I’ll admit I was of the mind-set that I was going to hate this movie and be bored beyond tears. As it happens, I was moved to tears. I’m not a religious person. I didn’t find God in this movie, but what I found was hope for humanity. There are some wonderful people in this…
