My Thoughts:

Felt like watching some comedy today. Going into this one I wasn't expecting much of anything. The trailer looked like it could go either way. While I have seen better baseball comedies before.... I found I still enjoyed this one quite a bit. Sure it gets a little silly at times. But I found myself laughing at it more then once. They went a bit over the top with the nerds and geeks thing. Over-all it is a fun watch... I can easily see myself watching it again sometime.

My Thoughts:

I am a big fan of the TV series 21 Jump Street... It is a show I watched every week with my family when I was a teen. And there really wasn't many shows that the family would watch together. So needles to say the series holds a special place in my heart.  So going into this movie... I wasn't expecting much out of it. Matter of fact... I was expecting to hate it. Just going by past experience of other movies based on TV series.

I was surprised when I found that I enjoyed this movie. Maybe it is because I had such low expectations. But one thing that definitely helped... they didn't just remake the series with the same characters... it is more like a continuation of the series. Where they are re-opening the Jump Street program. It was cool to see Holly Robinson Peete with a cameo appearance as her 21 Jump Street character... Officer Judy Hoffs. Other old Jump Street characters that made an appearance is Tom Hansen and Doug Penhall... now partners at the DEA. They were under cover and in disguises... but I am almost positive it wasn't Johnny Depp and Peter DeLuise reprising their roles. Whoever they were... they were not credited in the credits.

Anyway... found it to be a fun movie. It has a few laughs in it. I can easily see myself watching it again. I am surprised to say that I definitely recommend this one.

Going by IMDB seems I was wrong... and that it indeed was Johnny Depp and Peter DeLuise that made the cameos as their characters in 21 Jump Street. It claims that Richard Greico also reprises his role as Booker... but if so I missed him.

My Thoughts:

I am always happy when I see a new animated superhero movie released. While I enjoyed this one... it isn't one that will rank up there with my favorites. The storyline is good... but not thrilling. I really can't put my finger on it... but there is something about the animation that didn't impress me as much as they usually do. It seems something was just off about it. This isn't a good sign... but the highlight of this film for me was the fact that Lois Lane was voiced by Pauley Perrette who plays my favorite character on NCIS. But even with all this said, I didn't hate this film. I guess I would say just slightly disappointed in it.

My Thoughts:

Felt like a natural disaster movie this morning. This is in a 4 movie set (2 of which is about 3hrs long) that cost me about $5.00.... which means it is about $1.25 per movie. So at that price I really can't complain too much. Supernova is an almost 3hr TV movie that originally aired on the Hallmark Channel. Not that this is a bad movie... I did enjoy it for what it is. It is just that there was a lot of slow parts. Not surprising with a 3hr movie.... but there is plenty here that could have been taken out to make a more exciting story. I did like the one side storyline that they had going... where we learn earlier on one of the scientist's wife was brutally attacked... the attacker now in jail... but swearing to get revenge. This attacker escapes and comes after the wife and their daughter. The main storyline... while interesting... definitely could have been better. I think it could have had a better conclusion as well as shortened some. But it isn't bad for a lazy day of TV watching... just don't expect too much from it.

My Thoughts:
Well, let me just start of by saying HOLY SMOKES! It is an Norwegian horror movie. With some big names in the leads. Wich was nice to see, they did a great job IMHO. But the movie itself was kinda weird, and a very different movie. You gotta keep paying attention trough out the whole movie, or you will miss something vital. A movie with a lot of twists that i never saw coming. (And even though i like different movies, this was a bit too weird for me) It was a interesting story, and the actors did a good job i think. But how the movie played out, and how the whole thing ended. I have more quastions then answers really. Didnt get much of it. But for the scandies out there, if you think the trailer looked interesting, and you like a bit weird or out there movies. Check it out.

My Thoughts:
I loved alot about this movie, and how they made the booklet edition. Loved the booklet, just awesome imo! I like how they have done that with few of their movies. Nice touch. And for the movie, i've heard alot of great things about it. And first of all, the picture quality and the sound quality was just great. Great job getting it over to the blu-ray. And the movie itself was great too, a different kind of mobster\gangster movie i would say. A movie that i really enjoyed from the start to the finish, love how they did things with it. And the actors did a great job in the movie too! And i actually loved how they ended the movie. Just great. All in all, a movie everyone should watch!
And if your in to HD\Blu-Ray, you should watch in HD. A masterpiece.

My Thoughts:
Finally i got around to watch this one, was a movie i was looking forward to watch. Was cool to see RR and DW play against each other. A very good movie i think, a typical movie about politics and CIA etc. The movie reminded me alot about the Jason Bourne series. But the movie had my attention trough out the whole thing. Wich is always a good thing. And i think both RR and DW did a good job in the movie. The story though isnt something original, something that have been shown alot before. But a good movie, that i would recommand, and that kept me entertaint trough out.

My Thoughts:
Well, its not much to say about Rambo really, that hasnt been said before. Everyone have seen and heard about Rambo! But it was yeeears ago since i last watched the Rambo series. And i enjoyed this one very well. It was cool to see the transfer to Blu-Ray, i think they did a good job with it tho. The sound and picture qualtiy was ok. Wasnt the best transfer i've seen, but atleast not the worst. I was kinda suprised. And for the movie itself, i enjoyed it a great deal. Didnt remember much of it (witch was a good thing) And allright story behind it. And it had me glued to the tv.
A movie that  people who are in to HD\BR should rewatch in HD. I'm looking forward to getting around to watch the rest of the series. Highly recommanded on Blu-Ray!

Calling all knuckleheads! From the fiercely funny Farrelly Brothers (There's Something About Mary) comes this contemporary take on the world's most beloved classic comedy trio... The Three Stooges!

Left on the doorstep of a nun-conventional orphanage as toddlers, Moe, Larry, and Curly grow up eye-poking, face-slapping and head-clunking their way into adulthood. Now the bumbling trio — pure of heart, but dim of wit — find themselves on a madcap mission to save their childhood home from foreclosure. Can the Stooges survive the modern world, raise the money, and ultimately save the day? Why soitenly!

My Thoughts:
Sat down to watch with wife and kids, not knowing what to expect.  With almost non-existent plot line, and plenty of stick, I laughed almost from beginning to end. Sean Hayes, Will Sasso and  Chris Diamantopoulos  really pull it off.  If and when you watch this movie, sit back and enjoy the humor and the movie for what it is.....funny. (my wife, who usually doesn't enjoy these types of movies thought it was funny)

My Thoughts:
I just watched this last night, before i went to bed. So did have any time to write a review yesterday.
But for me Varg Veum is prolly my favourite Norwegian filmseries by all times. And this one didnt dissapoint either, even the story was something that have been used before. But it was nice to see some of the big actors in Norway in this movie. Did a good job imo. And the filmseries is going to an end, i think this is one of the last movies in the series. So for me this a job very well done. (the filmseries is maby from the novels by Gunnar Staalesen) Just a perfect filmseries for the Norwegians out there!

My Thoughts:
This movie i rememberd i've seen before. But along time ago (and not on blu-ray) so they did a great job on this one aswell, to transfer it over to blu-ray. I saw a big difference anyways. When it comes to the movie itself i liked this one too. A bit different story this time around, not the "usual" Rambo plot\storyline IMO. But it worked. It still had me glued to the tv trough out the movie. A movie i would recommand aswell as the other Rambo movies. Now i just got the last one to watch, hopefully tomorrow perheps. That one i havent seen yet, so i'm real interested to see what they do with that one. And for you guys that are thinking about if you should get the Rambo series on blu-ray. I think you absolutely should! But thats me So far the three movies i've seen is very good! And i could watch them again, no problem! :D

My Thoughts:
Well, i got a few things to say about this movie. First of all i was very interested to see how they pulled it off, since it was about 20 years since the last Rambo movie was made. And ofc Rambo is alot older, and you can see that on him. He isnt the Rambo he once was. It was a good movie, dont get me wrong, but for me the movie was a bit slow at times, and i didnt have the "Rambo feeling" about the movie everywhere. And the plot\story was interesting aswell. But they could have done a bit more i think. But still a good movie. I checked on IMDB, and from the looks of it, it might be a Rambo 5! I dont know what i think about that tho. But this one was good after all this year after all. And its kinda a must watch if you have first the 3 first Rambo movies.

Plot:
Frank (Bruce Willis) is retired, bored and lonely living off his government pension in a nondescript suburb in an equally nondescript house. The only joy in Frank's life are his calls to the government pension processing center when he gets to talk to his case worker Sarah (Mary-Louis Parker). Sarah is as bored and lonely as Frank and marks her conversations with the unknown Frank and her spy novels as the only things fun in her life. When something in Frank's past forces Frank back into his old line of work and puts an unwitting Sarah in the middle of the intrigue, Frank and Sarah begin a journey into Franks past and the people he used to work with. Like Frank they are all RED ... Retired Extremely Dangerous.

My Thoughts:
Hm, i dont know what to say about this one really. I really had my highs up on this one. But for me it was a bit weird movie, a good mix between comedy and action. And it was nice to see 'all' those big names together, and the story was ok aswell. But with those names in the movie, i think they could have done alot better. But all in all, an ok movie. But i thought they would do alot more with it.

My Rating:
3/6
