February 4th, 2010 — Comedy
IMDB: Yes Man
Basic Plot: After a motivational seminar, a pessimistic banker decides to say yes to every suggestion.
Outburst: For the record, I can’t stand Jim Carrey movies. I haven’t like one since Mask. So when this popped on the television I was surprised to find myself running late for an appointment because my attention had been strangely drawn to the screen. It’s a compellingly good story and it is authentically funny, as well.
/DVD (3 of 3 stars) — A laugh factory and great movie. Does anyone know if that’s was Jim Carrey’s behind or a stunt butt? This blogger wants to know.

December 12th, 2009 — Comedy, Martial Arts
IMDB: The Forbidden Kingdom
Basic Plot: Scrawny kid who watches too many kung-fu movies is magically transported to another realm in which he must return a mystical staff to the Monkey God.
Outburst: I’ve seen more logical plots on pornos. This is just a thinly veiled attempt to string together intense martial arts scenes between Jet Li and Jackie Chan, with some hot fighting Asian girls thrown into the mix. It’s pretty awesome.
/CULT (2 of 3 stars) — If you love comedic kung-fu movies, you’ll find this movie a fun classic.

IMDB: The Preacher’s Wife
Basic Plot: Dramady about an angel sent to help a troubled preacher. His presence, however, seems to cause more problems than it solves.
Outburst: Nothing like a feel good Christmas movie to get you into the holiday spirit.
(2 of 3 stars) — This is not a family movie so much as a story for ladies who watch romances.

August 2nd, 2009 — Comedy, Musical, Romantic
IMDB: Mamma Mia!
Basic Plot: Bride-to-be tries to discover her father’s identity by inviting the three potential candidates to her wedding. It’s a musical featuring hit songs by ABBA, does it really need a plot?
Outburst: For the standard moviegoer, it will be cute and tolerable, but really — what significant other dragged you to see this? Now if you love musicals or are a groupie for ABBA – this might be the greatest experience since your first orgasm. See this in as large a venue as possible; the energy and laughter of the crowd will keep you soaring (and singing) along.
/CULT (2 of 3 stars) — Exquisite fun for musical and ABBA fans, pretty good otherwise.
