Indie Movie Review – Homewrecker
Homewrecker was a bit of a change for me… the first independent film I’d seen that had people in it that I’d seen before!

Classic Movie Review – Austin Powers and should you watch it with your kids?
The first is the best film in the Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery James Bond spoof threquel. I’m pleased to see the simplest, most original tale stuck the landing best. NOTE: All Classic Movie Reviews have spoilers. I’d have been happy to keep Vanessa as a “married” Bond girl in the next movies, but…
