Movie-Holic

The Amityville Horror is one of those timeless horror classics that if you saw it when it was first released in 1979, you still remember the nightmares. I know I do. I thought I was all grown up at nine years old and ready for my first foray into the world of horror movies. I [...]

There are movies that are good, and then there are those that cause an involuntary emotional response. I categorize those types of movies as absolutely “must see”. Marley and Me is one of those movies. I must admit that I wasn’t really that interested in it. I passed on it as the theaters and waited [...]

Role Models is not exactly bad, but it’s not exactly good either. Caught at a crossroads between raunchy and acceptable, Role Models tries to deliver and make you laugh. The story is ok as far a slacker comedy goes. Two guys, Danny and Wheeler (played by Paul Rudd and Sean William Scott), work as a [...]

Punisher: War Zone is a much different movie than what I thought it was going to be. I thought it was going to be another foray into comic book to movie wasteland where other movies like Daredevil, Ghost Rider, and Fantastic Four have made their home. As mentioned in my post about watching this movie, [...]

Tonight I’m going to be checking out the new Punisher: War Zone movie on DVD. I just got my copy and am hopefully going to enjoy a good movie. I did not in any way enjoy the first Punisher movie, which is why I didn’t run out to the theater to check this one out. [...]

There are those movies that you fall in love with right from the opening scene. Then there are those that you want to poke your eyes out so that you are never subjected to that kind of torture again. Body of Lies is neither one. As stated in my earlier post about what I’m watching, [...]

Staying true to what has made Jason Statham a household name, Transporter 3 is an amazing thrill ride with adrenaline inducing martial arts and car chases. Really, is there anything else you want from a Statham movie? The simple plot is that Statham reprises his role as Frank Martin and puts the driving gloves on [...]

Tonight I’m going to watch a movie I’ve been wanting to see, but just never got around to it. Death Race stars one of my favorite actors at the moment in Jason Statham. The Transporter movies are just a fun thrill ride and his role in Crank is just bad ass. The simple plot of [...]

Quarantine is the first movie in a long time that, well… jumped me. I wasn’t expecting it, as it takes quite a bit for a movie to either gross me out or get me to jump, but Quarantine did just that. It kept me on the edge of my seat for pretty much all of [...]
