My Thoughts:
Interesting.. I really dont know what to say about this movie. It was a movie that i bought because a friend recommanded it to me. Its not a bad movie at all. A bit different movie tho. A movie that had its moment. A few good scare moments here and there. A good story, and some ok grapich pictures with some blood and bones. (Could have done more on that part. Since its a horror movie) The acting was ok. Have seen better, but seen worse too. I really liked the idea of the movie. So i wasnt dissapointed by it, but i feel that they could have done some more, to make it even better if you got me. But still a movie that you should check out.

Graceful tracking shots, rich colors, startling images: bravura traits that make Kubrick a filmmaker for the ages are here to keep everyone's eyes wide open.

My Thoughts:
So, that was interesting. And a bit different than i thought it would be. Its a movie that i've heard a bit about. Both negative and positive, but never seen it before. The movie had my attention trough out the whole movie. A good and strong story to it aswell. And alot of naked Nicole Kidman aswell. A movie that had some good and important moments. And a strong performance by both Tom and Nicole (and i am not  a fan of Mr.Cruise) Its a very good movie, with a bit of running time. But a movie that i would highly recommand if you are not easly offend. A movie i would watch again on a later time. Of all i've seen Nicole Kidman in, this is one of my favourite parts of her. Really strong! And i just have to say something about the music in the movie too. I really like how they pulled it off. Good and strong movie!

My Thoughts:
So, i've been a huge fan of Mr.Eastwood's work both behind and in front of the camera since i started to be interested in movies. And lets just face it, he is a legend and a icon in the movie business. Not many out there (IMO) that can compare themself to him. And he has made a lot of great movies. (Gran Torino, Western movies.) But i have actually never seen any of his Dirty Harry work. And i have heard alot about it ofc, but i didnt want to expect anything really. Just wanted to enjoy the ride. And what a ride it was! Really liked the story in this one, both actionpacked and very suspencefull at the same time. With a very good Clint Eastwood in the lead as 'Dirty Harry' I really love what they did with the story, and not just "pang pang, he's dead" Good moments trough out the movie, and i really liked some of the lines he had aswell! "You feeling lucky, punk?" And i loved the ways and turns he did, to catch a badguy.  For me,  this up there, with some of his best work to date. This is ofc highly recommanded, for those who havent checked them out yet! (But i guess most of you have) Just an amazing movie, and i'm looking forward to the 2nd.

My Thoughts:
Well, this was an interesting movie. A movie that wasnt quite what i expected it to be. But an enjoyble action movie, with a good and interesting story. With a good cast, that worked well together IMO. And with a few good lines, and had some really good moments too. But not quite the movie i thought Tarantino would make. And i just have to say one thing about Robert De Niro's character in this one. He's looks reminds alot about his look from 'Cape Fear' very much alike. But there was a few things i didnt like that much tho, the movie was a bit slow at times for me. And the movie was a bit too long IMO, they could make just as good as a movie in about 2hours running time. But despite that. A good movie, that i recommand you to check out.

My Thoughts:

Last night Brittany wanted to watch a blu-ray with me. So we picked this one. We both enjoyed this one quite a bit. I really liked the time travel aspect in this story... as it gave us a good look at a young Agent K. There is also plenty of laughs in this one as well. I was sorry to see that Rip Torn did not return for the third movie. I liked him in the first two... and while Emma Thompson was fine as the new head of MIB... I preferred Rip Ton's character. I definitely recommend this one.. especially if you liked the first two.

My Thoughts:
Well, this was difficult one to rate for me actually. After reading a few reviews, i didnt have my expactions up high for this one. I did enjoy the first one tho. So i was just looking forward to this one, to see how they did it all. The movie was a good action movie, with a good mix of suspence in it. But to look at this as a follow up, there was a few things i didnt like at all. The story was good tho, i enjoyed that one. And the action scenes was also good. But they went a little too Jason Bourne wannabe in this one. Didnt quite fit all the time with rest of the story. And some of the scenes seemed rushed, and out of place. Keeping all that in mind. Still a good enjoyble actionflick. A movie that you have to see if you enjoyd the first 'Taken' Even though it had its flaws, i would watch it again.

My Thoughts:
I had kinda high hopes for this one, after watching the trailer and when i saw the cast in the movie. The movie with a great story btw, started of great. And it was happening alot of stuff, and the movie was allright. But then, at the 30minute mark, something happend. The movie was real slow, nothing much really happend, it moved along a bit too slow. And after 35minutes, you kinda know how the movie will end. A movie with a great cast, a great story. But thats about it. It was a cool movie about to the 30 minute mark. And then something just happens. This was a movie i had high expactions for, but a movie that dissapointed me really. This is a movie i cant recommand you to watch actually.

Well, that was a cool Sci-Fi movie actually. A cool story, wich had me glued to the tv, trough out the movie. I like it when they go to outer space. I liked the idea, but i think they could have done just a littlebit more. A allright cast aswell. With some funny lines inbetween that made me laugh. All in all, for me, a good Sci-Fi movie, that i enjoyed. A movie that i recommand you to see, if you find it for a cheap penny.

Didnt know what to expect really, other then what people have told me, and the trailer. The movie had a funny story with the talking teddybear. And the movie had me laugh out a loud a few times. And i enjoyed the idea behind it. But at some places they just dropped the ball IMO. I think both Mark and Mila Kunis did a ok job. But i feel that they could have done a bit more maby. For the comedy part of it they did a good job IMO. But there was a few things that they did, wich i didnt like at all. Wich drag the movie down unfortunatly. And its a movie that small kids shouldnt watch IMO. A good comedy for adults, that i would recommand you guys to check out for a cheap penny.

My Thoughts:
Well, this was interesting. I've heard alot about this one, mostly bad things about it. I really enjoyed the first\original Death Race movie with Jason Statham. This one i didnt have too much or any expactions for. The movie started of in a good way. With some good scenes. And from there, it had my interest. For the movie and the action in it, its a great movie, with alot of good scenes, some 'good' racing, some fighting etc. For me, this was actually a good action movie. BUT, since this is supposed to be a follow up, or a second movie in this 'franchise' There was a few things i think they should have done a bit better. The story for one, (its a good and entertaing story, but a bit too simular to the first movie) could have done a bit more, to make their 'own' kinda. And the actors in this one. Not as good as the first one. And i have to say the way the movie ended. Really?! Was that the best they could do? Well, for me a enjoyble actionflick. And a good follow up, not a great follow up. But an ok one. And with how things ended. I'm interested to see how the 3rd movie will be.  For me, i recommand you guys to atleast check this one out, if you enjoyed the first Death Race.

My Thoughts:
As i've said before, Fast and The Furious is one of my biggest guilty pleasures 
And after the 'Death Race 2' i got in the mood for some car chases, and its been a while since i've seen this one. And since Fast 6 will be out in the theaters in awhile, so why not? This one, i really enjoy. It has a great and fun story, with a few bumps here and there. And some good driving. And a cast that works good together aswell. I think they do their parts good in this one. Its not much to say about the Fast And The Furious movies really. But it had a deal of action in this one, some high speed chases, and some racing. And a story that wasnt boring, or solved before 30 minutes trough the movie. A great movie, with some real good scenes. A movie that i ofc i will be watching again some time! For me, this franchise is ofc highly recommanded! All of the movies, expect the 3rd one!

My Thoughts:
Ah, i guess you can call this movie a guilty pleasure aswell. I just love this movie, i dont know how many times i've watched it really on dvd and tv. But never watched it on blu actually. So finally got around to check the blu version out. A few things about the movie, the story is just great. The action is off the chart (?) And its always good to see the oldschool Nic Cage. Both him and Angelina Jolie did a great job in this one. And i just have to say that the music people did a great job. Just fit right perfect to the whole thing. Ah, just perfect. And to compare the blu version to the dvd version. The blu is actually a good upgrage, the sound is just really great in this one. As is the picture quality. This is ofc a movie i cant recommand highly enough!

My Thoughts:

This is the first movie from the region 2 set that was recently given to me. This set contains all 4 movies plus a 5th extras disc. It has been a good couple years since I watched this movie... so I am glad I had a reason to watch it again. I forgot how much I enjoyed it. Angus Scrimm did a good job being the Tall Man. I found him to be pretty creepy. But another that I found to be on the creepy side here was the psychic woman and her granddaughter that Mike went to go see early on in the movie. The way they worked off each other I felt was very cool. And of course I liked the signature of the Phantasm movies... the flying ball... "The Orb of Evil" as I just seen it called in the Phantasm III trailer. I really enjoyed every minute of re-watching this movie. Whether you never had the opportunity to see this movie... or it has been many years since you seen it. This is one I would highly recommend.

I am now looking forward to checking out the rest of the set. I have seen part 2 before... years ago as well. But to be honest I don't believe I ever seen the last two movies in this film series. Hopefully they don't go downhill too much!

My Thoughts:

This is the very first Marilyn Monroe movie I ever seen. This one was recommended to my by a friend. Over-all I found it to be a fun watch. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Marilyn Monroe was definitely a beautiful woman. Though I must admit the way she talked will take a little getting used to. The way she does her voice... like she was trying to make every word of every sentence sound sexy. It just seemed a little strange. But this one is a fun comedy... well worth checking out. Now I am looking forward to watching the other movie I have with her in it... Some Like It Hot.

My Thoughts:

My brother and I just finished watching the only other Marilyn Monroe movie that I own. Another great comedy. One that I enjoyed just as much as the previous movie... probably even enjoyed it a bit more. There is some good laughs in this one.  But more then a great comedy... it is an all around great movie. I would recommend it t anyone. So if you haven't done so yet... check this one out!
