  • Limbo (Xbox Arcade)

    Limbo Xbox 360 (Arcade) Story Rating: 2/5 Environment Rating: 5/5 Game Play Rating: Thumb Buster Review: Dark and innovative, Limbo is a very unique game. There is no dialogue, written or heard, throughout the entire game. Instead, you wake up in a dark wood and must find your way as best as you can with…

  • Back to the Future I & II

    I had not seen the Back to the future movies since I was a young child, so except for a few scenes (lightning and the DeLorean, Biff marrying Marty’s mom) I really didn’t remember much. I was pleasantly surprised when, while watching Back to the Future, I could not stop laughing. Being older now, I…

  • Toy Story 3

    Once again, Pixar has managed to amaze me (and make me cry). Somehow they have made each Toy Story be as good as, and in this case better than, the last. An enjoyable film geared more towards an adult audience simply because children, while they’ll enjoy the action, will not have yet experienced the bittersweetness…

  • How to Train Your Dragon & 9

    How to Train Your Dragon Excellent movie. It’s been a long time since I’ve read the original books, but from what I remember the movie definitely followed at least the spirit of the books. I love how natural Toothless appears: you can definitely tell that they studied animals to get his movements down (he reminded…

  • Red: Werewolf Hunter

    Not really a review, more a collection of thoughts of the film. Hobo werewolf evangelist Go Jake! Glittery hand of doom! SyFy does to SF films what Hallmark does to Drama films Someone please send out a Jurisfiction agent to fix all of the plot holes. Conclusion: Not bad for SyFy. The plot was too…

  • Mini-Movie Review: 30 Days of Night

    Haven’t done a movie review for awhile, so what the heck, have at ye. 30 Days of Night Overall I rather enjoyed this film, although I was so wound up from all the slaughtering that I trembled through most of the movie. In case you didn’t get the hint, there’s a lot of blood. Pretty…

  • Movie Backlog: 12/30/2007

    I’ve been slacking off on posting what few movies I’ve actually watched in the past couple of months. Let’s see if I can remember them all. Far too lazy to include links at this time, however. Give me a break, I’ve been up since 4 AM. :p Monster House: The CGI feels a bit primitive,…

  • Movie Night: 10/13/2007

    Virtuosity: Weird movie about a virtual serial killer program that escapes the computer via an android body. Found the programmer far more creepy than his creation, however. Pretty run of the mill cop/chase film.

  • Movie Night: 10/12/2007

    Stepford Wives: The movie is inconsistent in parts with the technology aspect, but…very, very awesome in others. Watch just to see Bette Midler and Roger Bart, although the other main actors do a good job in the film. Also interesting is the fact that Faith Hill played one of the stepford wives.

  • Movie Night (Heh): 10/07/2007

    Stargate: An interesting take on Egyptian history. A very fun movie in a “The Mummy” tradition. Aeon Flux: As long as you don’t compare it to the original anime series (which I barely remember), I think you can enjoy this movie. I think they did an excellent job with their version of a dystopian future…
