Never Been Kissed 1999
I figured that I would start a my review process with all my favorites. So, I am starting with Drew Barrymore, who has been my top favorite actress since Poison Ivy. Drew is an incredible actress and since here come back has worked hard to stay clean and release good fun movies, like Never Been Kissed.
Never Been Kissed is the perfect romantic comedy in my book. It has all the ingredients for a classic. Not only does this movie…

Wanted 2008
I have to say that I was very excited to see this movie and had been for months since I saw the trailer. My expectations were very high, and I was not disappointed.
Everyone in the movie was great. There were plot twists, action, and nudity…full of testosterone. But the one thing that I loved about it was the humor that was infused throughout the entire movie. I have not seen a action movie done this well in a very… -
Can't Buy Me Love 1987
Dude… I cry during this movie everytime I see it. Just bought it on DVD and I love it. It is fun to look back and see all the big hair on the girls which is a total 80′s thing. But no matter how dated the movie looks, the story is still the same. Geek loves the popular figures out a way to become popular and fails miserably, but ultimately gets the girl in the end and lives happily ever after. This is a total chic flick… A+ in my book.

The Aviator 2004
I really do love this movie. Not a fan of Leonardo DiCaprio, but this movie enlightened me on the world of Howard Hughes and brought me to appreciate what he accomplished in the world of aviation. The story moved smoothly through his life and did not bore you with unimportant parts. Leonard did a fantastic job with the role. It was a job well done.
UPDATE: This is the movie that has made me appreciate DiCaprio as an actor and has become one of my top 25 movies of all time. -
Exit to Eden 1994
You can not go into this movie expecting it to have anything to do with the book, becuase it is so far from it… it is basically not based on the book. Personally I loved this movie and went to the theater like 10 times to see it. Must of the times I was alone with no one else in the theater. I think Rosie O made this movie soooooo much. Without her, it would have been a bit on…

The Dark Knight 2008
It was totally awesome. Heath was awesome and our friend Zak wanted to roll around in a pile of Maggie’s dirty underwear. The storyline was good, it was fast moving. Long but you did not realize it because it was nonstop action packed fun.

Speed Racer 2008
I went into this movie expecting crap for movie/plot and was looking just for entertainment and visual stimulation and of course Susan Sarandon. But I was impressed that they actually made a decent movie. You did not need to know they cartoon and they gave you just enough back story to understand who everyone was. And Blu-Ray is the way to watch this.

Drag Me to Hell 2009
Honestly, I thought this movie was going to be just another cheesy horror movie that would have bad special effect and I would be bored half way through it. But Sam Raimi proved me wrong. I was totally impressed by how this movie kept me intrigued throughout, and that is hard to do cause I have a low attention span and I even had my laptop in front of me that I did not even touch. There was some “gross out” scenes that made me and my roomie go “OHHHHHHH” but over all, I would say this may be up on my all-fave horror flicks.

Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy 2010
Let’s face it… If you like The Nightmare series, you will like the documentary; but if you love the series (like myself), you will love this four hour tell all on the life and times of Freddy Krueger. Broken down movie by movie, each section gives detailed information about the creating, the casting, the scripts, special effects, actually just about everything you need to know and then some.
With cast and crew interviews, there was nothing off limits. No one…

Toy Story 3 2010
I wasn’t originally worried if I missed Toy Story 3 in the theaters, I am not a fan of 3D, and I really did not care that much for the first two. But we decided to go check it out and I am glad I did. We did not watch in 3D, but I don’t think we missed anything. There were not any effects that seemed to “fly out at me” that I needed the 3D for. First, save the…

Inception 2010
This was a friggin awesomely awesome movie that is beyond words. I was so utterly confused, but as it went on and on I became less confused only to find myself more confused at the end. This movie is a subject of debate between my girlfriend and I cause she could read into the movie more than I could and just when I think that I just say I enjoyed this movie a lot, she comes and tries to analyze it. Which sucks. Blah. But I have to say that this, this has to be the best movie this year.

Kick-Ass 2010
When I saw the trailer on this, I wanted to see it but I thought it was going to a lame super hero movie like Mystery Men or Watchmen (Yes, I thought Watchmen was boring), but because it was teens, I thought it might be half way decent. OMG! It was much better than I expected it to be.
The writing was fabulous, a combination of comedy and serious superhero action… the characters were amazing and everyone did a fantastic…
