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…

The DUFF – movie review
—
Grade: A The Duff blew me away. It was really well done and had a great message. Mae Whitman was especially good. Just watching her facial expressions made me laugh. While I was watching this movie I was thinking to myself that you couldn’t pay me enough to go back to high school. The social aspect…

Hot Tub Time Machine 2
—
Grade: D+ Hot Tub Time Machine 2 bored me to tears. There were a couple of funny moments, which were in the trailers, but for the most part I didn’t like it. It felt forced. I didn’t even get the sense that the actors had any fun. I thought the first one was funny but…

The Lazarus Effect – movie review
—
Grade: C+ The Lazarus Effect was slow to start and once it got going it was over before I knew it. I think that was was my only gripe with this movie. I felt the beginning lacked a proper introduction to the characters and the ending was rushed. The premise had potential — who doesn’t…

Seventh Son – movie review
—
Grade: C Seventh son was not a bad movie by any means. It also was not my favorite. It was kind of like The Sorcerers Apprentice meets Clash of the Titans. Jeff Bridges was a great actor as always, if not slightly cheesy. However, I feel his directors pushed him in that direction. Julianne Moore…

The Loft – movie review
—
Grade: A The Loft was surprisingly good. I didn’t expect so many twists and turns. Just when I thought I had it figured out, they proved me wrong. That actually happened quite a few times. The cast that they assembled was awesome. You were treated to so many different types of personalities that it stayed…

Cake – movie review
—
Grade: A+ Oh my God. This movie proved that Jennifer Aniston is Superwoman. I can not express in words how absolutely riveting her performance was. My heart was ripped from my chest and thrown on the ground only to have a double-decker bus come by and run over. Then it backed up and ran over…

The Wedding Ringer – movie review
—
Grade: A The Wedding Ringer was absolutely hilarious! I am going to go see it again because I missed a bunch of stuff since I was laughing so hard. It really was non stop humor. Will it win an Oscar? Most definitely not, but what it did win was my new favorite Kevin Hart film.…

Blackhat – movie review
—
Grade: B- When I went to see this movie, I was honestly a little disheartened. It’s not my kind of movie and it just seemed like every other bad guy action movie out there. With that being said, I actually really enjoyed it. The first 45 minutes kind of dragged, but it was worth it.…
