Review:
So, unless you've been living under a rock or on the moon or in Iraq or under your mom's Volkswagon you've probably heard about the Harry Potter Franchise. Anyway, I love the story and the books and all but the movies always disappoint. They aren't terrible and they have great potential but they listen too much to the public and not enough to the author and directors. They shoulda keep the 1st director or at least the 2nd but they didn't b/c of creative differences and I don't blame the directors for walking one bit. You can't fit a 500 page books of awesome stories into a 120 minute movie and when you try, you fail and it hurts the quality of the flick. I wish more movies were 3 hours long and they actually just didn't take a crap on great pieces of art. I still like the movies but they get a full point deduction for just being stupid.

Changeling

About the Movie:
Clint Eastwood put his awesomeness into movie form and Angelina Jolie cries a bunch about her kid going missing and the stupid police give her the wrong one and tell her she's crazy for not believing its her kid.

Review:
Great, GREAT freaking movie! This movie messes with your emotions the whole time. For like the first hour you are so sad and mad that you want to punch everyone in the face! Then the next hour or so you are wanting to do pushups and run marathons. It's just a roller coaster ride of a movie and it really was an entertaining movie. Definitely awesome from all the actors and the director. F'n BA!

Review:

So basically this is a "always the bridesmaid never the bride" movie on steroids. The big boobed chick from the Grey's Anatomy is the bridesmaid and she meets the man of her dream and it doesn't work but then it does and then it doesn't and then it does and then it doesn't and so on and so forth. You've seen the movie a bunch before and all chicks like it and all dudes are annoyed. rinse and repeat

Review:
Seriously good movie. It was gut wrenching to watch at times but a good movie to sit through. I definitely would watch this one again and as a bonus you get to see Marisa Tormei neked and she looks good for 50 or whatever she is now. Basically an interesting and good movie.

Very funny movie. I laughed a good bit. Katt Williams was a one-liner machine and Ice Cube did another great job. Tracy Morgan should be in more movies as a sidekick too. But all in all it was a very funny movie and i was entertained throughout.

Demi Moore did a good job playing a British lady and I liked the movie. Not much else to say. It was interesting Michael Caine pretty much doesn't make a bad movie. I don't really feel like typing a bunch more just to say the same thing so there!

Prayer Requests and Praises

Hello everyone who doesn't follow my blog!

Hope you are all doing well! I am just wanting to write out a couple of prayer requests that I have for some friends of mine as well as give thanks for all the blessings in my life.

First off the Praises:
Praise for my life and my fiance and my dog. I am very blessed and I am grateful for everything I have. I hope that I never forget my blessing from my family, friends, health and happiness.

The Prayer requests:
I'd like to ask for Prayers for my friend Greg. He's a good kid and I love him to death but he's lost and has been for a long time. I want to help him but don't really know how so I ask that he find guidance and peace in his own life and I hope that I can offer friendship to him always.

For my friends who smoke, please let them quit before it's too late.

I'd like to ask forgiveness for my enemies and for my own sins.

I pray for the world and our country.

I really wish people would stop living such selfish lives and could actually give back to the people in need.

Your will be done Lord.
Amen

Stuff for May 21, 2009

I had all the intentions in the world of writing another 5 or so movie reviews tonight but I don't really have the energy. It's been a bad day/week/month/year/decade (ok not really but it was a bad day).

Anyway, I hope to be back on board tomorrow.

About the Movie:
A movie about the inside of a hollywood producer's life. Lots of big names in this movie and lots of hollywood drama!

Review:
I really wish I was a big time producer in Hollywood sometimes. Then again, sometimes I don't. I honestly just want to make movies but I want to avoid all the drama and money bullstuff that people have to deal with all the time. People's egos get in the way too often and this film is a good example of how this works. Good movie and I couldn't tell you how accurate it is to real life. I'd like to think they got it close.

HDR 145 (What would Jesus buy?)

What would Jesus buy?

About the Movie:
C&P from the website, best description i could find:
a serious docu-comedy about the commercialization of Christmas. Bill Talen (aka Reverend Billy) was a lost idealist who hitchhiked to New York City only to find that Times Square was becoming a mall. Spurred on by the loss of his neighborhood and inspired by the sidewalk preachers around him, Bill bought a collar to match his white caterer's jacket, bleached his hair and became the Reverend Billy of the Church of Stop Shopping. Since 1999, Reverend Billy has gone from being a lone preacher with a portable pulpit preaching on subways, to the leader of a congregation and a movement whose numbers are well into the thousands.

Through retail interventions, corporate exorcisms, and some good old-fashioned preaching, Reverend Billy reminds us that we have lost the true meaning of Christmas. What Would Jesus Buy? is a journey into the heart of America – from exorcising the demons at the Wal-Mart headquarters to taking over the center stage at the Mall of America and then ultimately heading to the Promised Land … Disneyland.

Will we be led like Sheeple to the Christmas slaughter, or will we find a new way to give a gift this Christmas? What Would Jesus Buy? may just be the divine intervention we’ve all been searching for.

Review:
So, I agree 100% with this movie! 100%! I've said it before and I'll say it now, what kind of world would be live in if people spent 1/2 of what they do on Alcohol, fast food and extras. Just half. Not 80% but just took 50% of every penny they spent going out and doing whatever and just sent to people in more need. I think it'd be a lot better actually. That's pretty sad. We are a long way from what Jesus wants from us and I don't see the tide turning. I pray I'm wrong. Great movie. Very funny. Only knock on it at all was it didn't have subtitles. That demotes it a half.

Review:
Like seriously, these movies rock. Jason Statham at his finest and his best type of role... a super Bad@$$!! Anyway, it's the same type of plot as always in a transporter movie. Somebody is stupid and tries to pull a fast one on Mr. Transporter dude and he kicks butt. Roll Credits. I want to run over someone in a car now!

The Happening

About the Movie:
M. Night. Shamwow made a movie and this one is rated R! for Really suspenseful b/c that's the movies he makes you know. This one is about a strange "happening" that is killing people. Creepy stuff.

Review:
I like it. I thought it was good. Not really that suspense-filled or anything like that but still a good movie. It makes you think and I like thinking when I'm not vegging out to MTV or sports. I heard some bad things about this movie when it came out but I would definitely have to disagree with them and give this one a thumbs up or something not bad. Very entertaining.

Review:
Pretty much the same type of movie as the 1st one except with a blast from the past plot line that allows the lion to find his actual family. Pretty funny and cute. Nothing special. If you need a movie to watch and enjoyed the 1st one. Rent this one. Hated the 1st one, then don't see this one.

Review:
Good cartoon/animated flick as usual. The action and humor was good and the story was the usual cheesy stuff. I really liked the hamster (b/c everyone did apparently) but the 2ndary characters were interesting and the plot didn't drag very often. Good movie for kids and most people esp animal lovers. Lots of laughs from me too.

Review:
I guess the book had to be better or something because the only thing good about this movie was Kristin Stewart is decently hot. Besides that, it was lame, gay and stupid. Did i mention it was lame? It was really bad lame. Like when the vampire guy was in sunlight? OMG that was totally super gay and I don't even mean to offend gay people by saying that either. It was just terrible. I would read the book but I don't think I want to have to watch the sequel but then again I probably will for comic value.

Review:
Yeah, So basically here's another 007 movie and it's about the same as the others. I think they've made like 20 or more of these movies now so that's cool but they are all pretty much the same now. James is BA and he's gotta rescue some chick or at least bang a chick or two and then the world is safe again. I think they are fun movies and always have some cool stuff to see for gadgets and stuff. Nothing special though. Just a good James Bond movie.
