Lacks a story.

An enjoyable comedy. As a lot of people have said, Tyler Labine (Sock from Reaper) is great as Dale.
(Excellent) - review by Heather
Below average movie with only a few chuckles.

A lot of "why is this happening to me" whining, a lot of fighting, and a lot of TNA, and every now and then, the odd bit of humor.
(Don't bother!) - review by Heather
Terrible... just terrible.
The only decent thing on this dvd was the preview for Tucker and Dale Vs Evil at the start.

Very little story, but visually impressive. The movie is more entertaining if you watch it with the Milla Jovovich commentary on :)

Decent story of what happened before the first Dead Space Game.

When I heard that season 8 was the final season of monk, I was worried that It was simply a matter of the series being canceled and that there would be no resolution to Trudy's death. Thankfully that is not the case. This season wraps up a lot of the loose ends and the final 2 episodes were (in my opinion) the perfect way to end this brilliant series.

Decent movie, though the curb stomp was a little too much for my taste.

Better than I expected it to be.

While this looks like a movie based on a comic book, I don't believe the comic book actually exists.
The movie itself is below average. Brian Austin Green in the lead roll feels completely wrong and Robert Carradine is terrible as Dr Zyal. The movie would be a complete disaster if It wasn't for the rest of the cast. Michael Clarke Duncan plays the perfect bad guy as usual and Jake Busey is made for the roll of the wackadoo explosives expert.
2 stars.

A very weak movie. I disliked it so much I plan on avoiding Uwe Boll Movies from now on.

A very disappointing movie. The story is slow and takes a while to go anywhere and Cuba Gooding Jr.'s Acting is terrible in parts.

Disappointing sequel to the First movie. The obvious next step after the first movie would have been that Zion etc was still part of the Matrix, but instead they went with the "lets make the matrix more like a game world" route. I prefer to pretend that Reloaded and Revolutions were never made - That's how bad they are.

Decent Space Movie, which is rare because most of them suck.

Great TV series with a lot of laughs. Can't wait for the 4th season to come out.

A decent light british comedy.

Takes an interesting idea and does nothing with it.

Still funny, but not as good as some of his Late Late Show episodes.

decent cowboy movie.

Superior to the recent Tim Burton's Alice in wonderland, but that's not saying much...

Very weak compared to other animated family movies (despicable me, ice age, kung fu panda, etc) but still a decent movie for children.

A Beautifully Made Samurai Western. Everything looks great and the narration was perfect (reminded me of the xbox 360 arcade game bastion) .
(Excellent) - review by Heather
Better than I expected it to be. I liked how the movie portrayed hell.
3.5

Your typical B grade movie, though with a lot more nudity than usual.
(Maybe) - review by Heather
A lot better than I expected it to be. The use of parallel worlds instead of time travel removed the paradox plot hole most movies of this type suffer from (Deja Vu, ticking clock, etc)
3.5 stars

Found it a little dull.
(Maybe) - review by Heather
a LOT cruder than I was expecting, but I still found it entertaining. If crude humor isn't your thing, your not going to enjoy this at all.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
A decent movie with a serious case of small world syndrome (everyone keeps running into each other).
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
A decent alien invasion action movie. I had heard nothing but bad reviews for the movie so I was pleasantly surprised. Control centers for the alien Airforce was a decent idea as far as a gimmick for humanity to win (lets face it, if you have the technology to travel between stars, your going to kick our ass - its in the resistance after that point where we co-opt your technology that we take back our planet :))
3 stars

I enjoyed this better than the first (28 days Later), though it wasn't great.
2.5 stars
If you really want to see how to do Zombies properly I suggest reading Feed by Mira Grant (now that would be a great book to turn into a zombie movie...)
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
Very little actual comedy, though Edward Norton plays the twins so well and differently that you never confuse who is who.
2.5
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
Your Average "Nutjob snaps and tries to kill the hero in creative ways" action movie.
Other than the theme music, there is no connection to the last S.W.A.T. movie.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
I'm really uncomfortable with delusional people (maybe a little jealous too) so I had a little trouble watching this.
In the end I enjoyed it, but its not a movie I would recommend to anyone.
2.5 stars
(Maybe) - review by Heather
Some REALLY poor acting, and below average special effects.
(Don't bother!) - review by Heather
Rom-Com where most of the Romance appears to take place offscreen, and the comedy isn't strong enough to carry the movie by itself. Always nice to see Kristen Bell though (I miss Veronica Mars...)
2.5 stars
(Maybe) - review by Heather
Your typical (and therefor predictable) Rom-Com.
Its nice to see Jennifer Aniston play a smart and likable character.

As long as your not expecting anything deep, its a fun movie to watch.
Louis Lombardi is perfect as the Cloned Henchmen

Very little comedy, but an interesting story.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
An interesting origin story, different from your typical Robin Hood stories. The story sadly, lacks a conclusion (changes to the story have written the common ending out)
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
The movie was both slow and predictable, though the fight scenes themselves were better than average. 2.5 stars
(Maybe) - review by Heather
An Average romantic comedy
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
a light comedy with great actors. Not enough laughs however.
(Maybe) - review by Heather
I was lucky enough to watch the first (dragon tattoo) dubbed in English (It was done quite well) instead of watching it in Swedish with subtitles. No option to do that with this DVD, but at least the subtitles are white and easier to see than the yellow of the previous movies.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
Full of unlikable characters and very few laughs
(Don't bother!) - review by Heather
A Prequel instead of a sequel. Decent, but as a prequel the story is limited by what has already happened in the future....
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
A great film adaption of the Frank Miller Sin City Comics. Each Comic was generally a story all on its own, so the movie itself is essentially a bunch of short stories loosely tied together by the city the stories are based in, and the corrupt Roark Family.
(Excellent) - review by Heather
The Plot was a little obvious but other than that, an enjoyable movie to watch.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
an interesting story, though seeing Jason Mewes (Jay from Jay and Silent Bob) play anything but a stoner always feels a little wierd. The camera was so close up during most of the film that I felt I was watching it in the wrong display mode, Other than that though, I enjoyed it.
(Maybe) - review by Heather
An average Rom-Com (just slightly more raunchy than the usual).
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
decent movie, though Forest Whitaker steals the show.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
An average action movie, ruined by its "happily ever after" ending
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
Take Expendables (Action movie full of Celebrities)
Add Comedy and a better script and you have RED.
I really enjoyed this movie.
(Excellent) - review by Heather
Below average action movie full of celeb's

I normally don't like Australian movies, so I was quite surprised by how much I liked this one. The only problem is that this feels more like a pilot for a TV series instead of a movie, and as such it feels unfinished.
(Excellent) - review by Heather
A decent movie where (from what you see on screen) Nicolas Cage plays a very sloppy assassin.
(Maybe) - review by Heather
enjoyable action movie.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
A decent action movie, though the story doesn't tie in with the previous street fighter movie.
Also acting of Chris Klein in this movie is terrible (though he isn't on screen that much so his hammy-ness doesn't harm the movie)
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
Decent Puzzler.
As long as your not expecting huge plot twists you should enjoy it :)
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
Decent action movie (seeing Rhona Mitra playing a bad ass was a plus) But I found all the contradictions off putting
(Maybe) - review by Heather
Great comedy (of the dry wit variety)
(Excellent) - review by Heather
An Average action movie. 2.5 stars
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
A nice blend of action and humor (not exactly sure why this movie is marked as an action thriller, and not an action comedy)
(Excellent) - review by Heather
Shoot Em Up is another name used for a 3rd person shooter game, and it fits this movie perfectly.
Lots of bad guys to shoot, and little to no story to get in the way of the shooting.
(Maybe) - review by Heather
in the first movie It was adrenaline, in this its electricity. The first Crank was over the top, High Voltage is so over the top it could be considered a spoof of the first.
If you can get over the ridiculous-ness of the movie (or even laugh at it) and you liked the first crank, you should also like this one. Of course if you can't get over it you will probably hate it :)
(Maybe) - review by Heather
Your Typical Ricky Gervais comedy. If you liked the Invention of Lying you will like this as other than the main gimmick (seeing ghosts in this, being the only person able to lie in invention of lieing) they are pretty much the same movie.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
For some reason I got the idea that Smokin Aces was about a magician assassin who has a contract put on his head. As soon as I found out that Jeremy Piven (the smarmy Agent from Entourage) was the Magician I knew this wasn't the action movie I thought and hoped it was. Because of this I liked it less than I otherwise would have. Still, it was a decent movie.

This movie is your typical Cult classic - and as such it contains a certain something that will make some people love it, and some people hate it. For Hudson Hawk that certain something is an over abundance of wackiness.
If you like wacky, you will probably love this, if you dont, you will hate it.

"based on true events" This movie is about a rehabilitation camp for teenagers that is all about the tough love. Average film that gets its point across without going too far.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
Slightly above average action movie.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
The "at a glance" had me expecting an action movie with car chases and gun fights. This is not the case.
This movie is about two cops recounting the events of a shooting to Internal affairs while the viewer tries to figure out which is the good guy, and which is the bad guy.
I had trouble caring who was who and found the movie to be very boring.
(Maybe) - review by Heather
There is little story to this movie, just a lot of action. However, it is proper action (none of that CGI heavy, slow motion strung up and doing flips "action")
The methods used to increase the main characters adrenaline (rocking out in the Taxi for example) bumps the movie from a below average 2 star movie up to a decent 3 stars for me.
(Worth watching) - review by Heather
The First Resident Evil Movie was a decent movie as long as you didn't expect it to be remotely like the Computer game.
With each installment of the series the story line gets worse, but the special effects budget is increased.
Resident Evil: Extinction proved that even in a zombie flick, increasing the special effects wont fix a badly written story. Resident Evil: Afterlife shoves that fact right down your throat.
