I just watched Abbott & Costello in Little Giant. In this one Costello plays a country hick that gets a job selling vacuum cleaners. This one is pretty good... but far from the best Abbott & Costello film I have seen. It has a few good laughs in it... but not so much that I could recommend this one all that strongly. I would say average at best.

My Thoughts:
I picked this one up at the library today. I have always liked the old Herbie movies... and ths one is no different. Sure it isn't something that will go down in cinema history... but it is a whole lot of fun. And lets face it... sometimes that is all you need from a film. I think my favorite scene of the movie has to be Herbie in the demolition derby. This is one film I hope to add to my collection before too long.

My Thoughts:
Just finished watching this one. It is another one I recently got from the library. I enjoyed every minute of it... definitely worth the time put in to watch it.Though I didn't find it nearly as scary as people has told me it was. Sure there was a couple decent jump scenes... but that is about it. I am looking forward to adding this one to my collection before too long.

My most watched movie ever, I'm sure I've seen it over 150 times, it was something I always had on in he background back in High School on VHS.  I just watched it again with my daughters, and they both loved it as well.

My Thoughts:
This is another one I borrowed from the library. The first thing I did was watch the trailer for the film. Going by the trailer... I must admit I was a little concerned if I would like this one or not. But it didn't take long at all for me to get into the story. Before I knew it I was enjoying it quite a bit. Now compared to the other X-Men films... I must say this one is probably my least favorite. But don't take that wrong... this one is still well worth the time put in to watch it. I just prefer the others a little more. But this is one I hope to add to my collection before too long.

Title: Lovelace

Stars:
Amanda Seyfried
Peter Sarsgaard
Sharon Stone (1958)
Robert Patrick (1958)
Juno Temple
Chris Noth

Plot:
In 1972, before the internet, before the explosion of the adult film industry, Deep Throat was a phenomenon and introduced the world to an unknown and unlikely star: Linda Lovelace (Amanda Seyfried; Les Miserables). Escaping a strict religious family, Linda discovered freedom and the high life when she fell for and married charismatic hustler Chuck Traynor (Peter Sarsgaard; TV's The Killing). As "Linda Lovelace" she became an international sensation - a charming girl-next-door with some 'impressive skills'. Fully inhabiting her new identity, Linda became an enthusiastic spokesperson for sexual freedom and uninhibited hedonism. Six years later she presented another, utterly contradictory, narrative to the world - and herself, as the survivor of a far darker story.

The all-star cast includes: Emmy Award winner Hank Azaria (The Simpsons), BAFTA winner Juno Temple (The Dark Knight Rises), Adam Brody (Seeking a Friend for the End of the World), Academy Award nominees James Franco (127 Hours), Golden Globe nominee Chris Noth (Sex & The City), Emmy Winner Bobby Cannavale (TV's Nurse Jackie), Wes Bentley (The Hunger Games), Robert Patrick (Gangster Squad), Debi Mazar (Collateral), Eric Roberts (The Expendables), Academy Award nominee Sharon Stone (Basic Instinct) and Academy Award nominee Chloë Sevigny (Boys Don't Cry).

My Thoughts:
Well, first of i have to say that i have never seen 'Deep Throat' and i never will. But i heard the stories and when this movie was going to be made (With Linsey Lohan at first) i wanted to check it out, to see what it was all about. Its a strong movie, and a sad movie to watch. And get a good look behind the scenes what the sorry excuse of a husband forced her to do. And Amanda Seyfried did a good job as Linda Lovelace IMHO. Recommanded to check out.

My Thoughts:
So, finally after ages in my unwatched pile i watched it! And being a fan of the game of 'pool' made the movie even better for me. Great B&W movie about how a Hustler is trying to Hustle his way to big bucks trough playing pool. And we get some great moments in the movie. Some ups and some downs. And we got some good acting aswell. If you enjoy a good movie or just enjoy a B&W movie, this is highly recommanded!

My Thoughts:
I picked this one up used at a convenience store a couple months ago. I picked it up cheap.. less then a dollar. Other then the Olsen Twins... this one also has Jared Padalecki (Supernatural). To be honest with you... when I picked this one up I really wasn't expecting too much from it. Then when I watched the trailer I saw some potential... but still didn't expect too much. After watching it I can say it had it's moments... but for the most part I have to say below average. Kinda the Olsen Twin's answer to Ferris Bueller's Day Off. As little as I paid for it (less then $1)... I really can't complain. But it isn't one I could recommend. Best I would say is if you are bored one day and can see this one for free.... well then there is worse things you can watch. But there is also plenty of better things that could be watched as well.
