My Thoughts:
So i've wanted to start on the Hitchcock boxset now for awhile. And there is a few great movies in this blurayset that i've both seen and not seen. (A.Hitchcock is\was one of my favourites) So i started with a movie that i havent seen before, but heard alot of great things about. I liked what they did with the movie, a bit different story, but it had me glued to the screen from start to finish. And even tho it didnt happen' much in the movie, they managed somehow to both keep the suspence trough out, and you (me) didnt know what would happen. Great mix between suspence and drama, and well played by the cast. And since i havent seen it before now on blu. I cant say anything about the DVD format or anything. But i really liked the bluray, great picture quality and sound quality for its age. Once again a masterpiece from Hitchcock IMO. Another movie i recommand you guys to check out. Just a few minor things they could have done a bit better, but all in all a great movie IMO.

My Thoughts:
So, before i write about the movie, i just want to say something. 'So i guess, that was that huh?' I know the movie have "won" or shall we say "gotten" a few razzies etc, because how bad it was etc. And i'll admit that the movie isnt the best written movie, or Oscar worthy acting all the time. But for some reason i actually enjoy the 'Twilight Saga' its an ok 2 hours spent IMO. The story was how i thought it would be, and the story was allright too IMO, it kinda fit right in there. And i actually liked what they did with it, the sound was good, the picture quality wasnt too bad either. And i have to admit that (even tho i know many dont) i kinda got a crush on Kristen Stewart   
And that helps a bit too. For you twilightfans out there, this is ofc a must have. (if you havent seen it alllready) and for you guys that are sceptical about 'Twilight' and havent seen any of them yet. Give'em a try You might enjoy some of them.

My Thoughts:
Well, that was the last movie in the 3D offer i got a while back. And to be honest, i didnt expect too much from this movie, didnt hear much about it etc. But i got finally around to check it out today. Was real interested to check out both the movie and the 3D efect, compared to the 2 other movies. And i have to start of by saying that i see what they was trying to do, both with the story in the movie. And with the script. And with the 3D efects (depts, popouts) BUT however. (for me personally) I couldnt go much more wrong. The story was 'a bit typical' the lines was akward at times, and it didnt feel 'right' some of the things were a bit too rushed. And there wasnt ONE moment i actually 'LOL'D' in the movie. There was a few places it made me smile, but thats about it. (unfortunatly) To make it work for me, they would have done alot of things different. Starting with the story and the manus. And for the 3D side of things. To be complete honest with you guys, that wasnt that many of them. A few ok depts shot, a few popouts. But thats about it. For me, unfortunatly this is a movie that i will forget quite soon. A movie that really dissapointed me. A movie that i wouldnt recommand you guys to check out. Skip it. There is alot better out there IMO.

My Thoughts:
This is a film that was given to me a few years ago in a box full of free DVDs. It is pretty good for a low-budget horror... though I definitely seen better. There wasn't any really familiar names to me in this one. Usually I know at least one or two of the cast members... but not this time. Over-all I would say it is worth the time put in to watch it... just don't expect too much.

My Thoughts:
Going in to this one, i didnt expect too much really. I heard alot of great things about it. But didnt much many trailers etc. And i have to say that it was worth it. The movie was a great movie, with a solid performance by the leads. And the story caught me, i was glued to the tv. (And since its based on a true story) its not much you can do i guess. And the fact that the movie is based on a true story and from MM is just a big plus IMO. And it was nice to see Emma Watson aswell, even though her role wasnt that big. This movie was just a strong movie from the start to finish, a solid performance by Michelle Williams, and those behind the scenes\camera's did a good job aswell. But speaking of that, the sound quailty of this blu wasnt the best i've seen. They could have done a bit better there. And just a few small things they could have done better. But all in all, a great movie, that i recommand you guys to check out. IMO its worth the 99minutes of your time.

My Thoughts:
Well, that was fun! I didnt know what to expect about this one really. Since the original cast wasnt in it. The movie starts of in a cool way, a 'tribute' or what i shall call it to the original Bourne movies. The movie got a good and strong story, that keeps me glued to the tv, you didnt know what would happen here and there. There was alot of good actionscenes wich you need to have in a Bourne movie. They have been able to mix both the suspence and action trough out the movie. I was wondering what would happen' next. And i liked Jeremy Renner in this one. I think he did a solid job. Just a solid performance from him and Rachel Weisz. And i really liked the sound and picture quality in this aswell. All in all, a real good actionflick. But there was a few minor details they could have done a bit better IMO, and that they didnt have some of the orignial cast members in this one was a bit negative aswell for me. Atleast i hoped we would see Matt Damon (not only in pictures) but a great movie, with a great story. And if you have watched the 3 Bourne movies before this one. I highly recommand to check this one out! You wont regret it imo!

My Thoughts:
Well, to be honest.. I'm actually lost for words. I remember watching the first movie, and i thought that wasnt good enough either. But since i found the Pirahna 2 on cheap cheap sale, i thought i give it a shot. And wow, what a shiitake mushroomty movie (sorry to be blunt) but wow. The story, the visual efects. The acting, wow. And what about David Hasselhoff? Is he 'that' broke, that he would do almost whatever to get some money? Well, i'm sorry to say it. but this mix between "horror, pornwannabe and comedy" it didnt work for me at all. And if they would make a movie number 3, i wouldnt watch it. Well, for me.. Skip it.
