Now before I begin I would like to say {Read More}
MIB 3 in RealD 3D Review
May 25, 2012 By 1 Comment
Let me start off by telling you I have watched both Men in Black and MIB2 and going into this experience I didn’t have high hopes for the threequel due to what little the trailers for it did to reveal any sort of story worth watching. I was honestly feeling like they only made another MIB movie to milk whatever money the film could bring. But I blame bad marketing for my initial impressions because after watching the film I {Read More}

If you see one movie this Holiday Season, see this one. Yes, I realize I’m a little behind on seeing this since it’s been out since Thanksgiving….but I just have to say – it was wonderful! I’ve never seen a movie with Jake Gyllenhaal or Anne Hathaway in it that I did not like, but I have to say they were both just so on their game in this movie. Their characters were so raw, charming even. The dialogue was {Read More}

Saturday nights around here are “Date Nights” if you will. Though we did not have a babysitter, this Saturday was no exception. We got some Chinese takeout and watched a movie (as Jackson climbed all over us). It was Funny People with Seth Rogan and Adam Sandler. I’ve got to tell you…this movie was SO much more than I thought it would be. Judd Apatow always surprises me with the direction in his movies, because even though they have some {Read More}

the fabulous episode of American Experience I watched last night! First off if you don’t know about this show, look into it! It is so great! Now, I admit I’m a nerd and love to watch documentaries and historical accounts of things, but seriously, I think most anyone could find an episode of this they love! I watched A Midwife’s Tale last night, and it was just amazing! It was done like a movie, but based on a personal diary {Read More}
