Dark Skies – movie review
—
Grade: C Dark Skies wasn’t a bad movie but it wasn’t great either. The cast is mostly unknown; Keri Russell was the only actor I had heard of before. While I’m not a big fan of hers I liked her in this flick. She did a decent job with what was a fairly weak script.…

A Good Day to Die Hard – movie review
—
Grade: C- I’ve been a huge Die Hard fan from day one. I’ve seen every installment in the theater on opening day, and with each movie the question is: how does it compare to the original. So far I don’t think any of the squeals have been as good but a few have been close.…

Safe Haven – movie review
—
Grade: C- The movie starts with Katy running for her life from what? We don’t know. She takes a bus and ends up in a bucolic seaside town. There she manages to get employment and a place to live within 24 hours. Really! She immediately finds a guy who wants to love and take care…

Beautiful Creatures – movie review
—
Grade: B- Beautiful Creatures did it’s job as a movie. I was entertained for the entire two hours. The cast was awesome. It was visually appealing and it left me wanting more. I knew it was based on a book but I did not know it was a series of four books. I won’t give…

Identity Thief – Movie Review
—
Grade: B I just spent the last hour reading reviews on Identity Thief. The majority of them had very unkind words dealing with almost every aspect of the movie. From the way these reviews were written I’m worried that too many people will take those negative remarks to heart and skip this flick. I saw…

Side Effects – movie review
—
Grade: B+ It’s difficult to write a through review for this movie for fear of giving anything away. There are so many twists and turns in Side Effects that one wrong word or expression could give away an important detail. That being said I will tell you it’s a great movie that will keep wondering…

Bullet to the Head
—
Grade: C- *Bullet to the Head* isn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I know that’s not exactly high praise but I’ve been dreading this movie since I first saw the trailer – I typically do the action movies for RunPee. I’m not saying that it was outstanding by any means. The…

Stand Up Guys – movie review
—
Grade: A- The target age group for this movie is the 40+. The younger set would find Stand Up Guys slow and tedious. I’m in the 60+ age group and I loved it. When you have Walken, Pacino and Arkin together it’s going to be a hit in my book. These guys can take any…

Warm Bodies – movie review
—
Grade: C I’ve been anxiously awaiting *Warm Bodies* for months now. The trailers had me anxiously awaiting this new spin on zombie movies. It looked like my perfect cup of tea: zombies, humor, romance, and action. I would like to ask the people who make the movie trailers to stop including every funny scene from…

Movie review: The Last Stand
—
Grade: C- BREAKING NEWS > Arnold Schwarzenegger can act! I know, right? It’s shocking. I’m not saying that he’s a great actor by any means. But his performance in *The Last Stand* was a little better than decent. He appeared comfortable in his role instead of the forced performances of many of his past movies.…
