This is the movie which put Shia LaBeouf on the map for me. I only knew him as some Disney kid, and I really didn’t have a ton of desire to see this. That, combined with the fact that it was an obvious...

Something about Anthony Hopkins defies logic. It always seems like his acting is better than the movies he is in. I suppose that has happened to Pacino, De Niro, Hoffman, and much of that generation....

I had a couple of hours to kill before the Patriots AFC Championship, and decided to throw this in. I remember it being average, but somewhat entertaining. It had been on my mind since watching another...

DEAD SILENCE is the follow up to the 2004 film SAW for director James Wan, who has since gone on to do such well received movies as the two INSIDIOUS films and THE CONJURING. I like Wan’s vision, and I...

I watched and ranked the first two Shrek films way back in May of 2010. I started the third but only got twenty minutes in before getting distracted. I never returned to it. Since then, I had a son....

I remember seeing this movie around the time it came out. I remember thinking it was kind of dumb. But I couldn’t remember if it was a dumb dumb or a brilliant dumb. So, looking for a high octane...

I’m a completest. Sometimes that means seeing the newest movie in a series ASAP. Sometimes it means watching all the SAW films long after they have stopped being entertaining. And sometimes that means...
