• John Tucker Must Die

    A guy is dating 3 girls at the same time, they find out and plot to expose his womanizing ways.

    Sorry, thats it, it never goes anywhere, a few little smirks, but no real laughs, no characters, no plot.

    Great chick (teenage chicks) flick.


  • Wild Hogs

    Light fluffy entertainment, a few good chuckles, but most of the jokes are strained, and deliberately set up just to get a laugh.
    The sad part is that some of the mid-life crises that the actors try and pass off can be a little true, but its dealt with in an off handed way, so has little value or effect in the movie.

    It was a nice night out with the boys, but a Linux / Windows install fest with a few beers would have been more fun.


  • X-Men III

    Seen the fist 2? If so, then you have seen this one…..

    Same old, confused good struggles with confused bad who both together struggle with confused humans.

    Some good effects, but over all its just the same old stuff.

    Be sure and watch for the snippet after the credits and get ready for X-Men IIII


  • blog by email

    This is a test of the blog via email. I will be using this to keep family and friends informed
    while we are on the road. Its nice and easy for me, I just send an email, and it ends up here
    in my blog. I cant send pictures, but that’s not such a big deal as I can include them when I
    have web browser access (and can hook my camera to the computer to get the photos off
    it!).
    I hope that you will check back from time to time, not sure that I will keep it up todate all that
    much, but its better than nothing?

    Ben.


  • V for Vendetta

    Great movie, not for kids, its very much an adult thing.

    The acting is fantastic, it really keeps it all together, nice twists and turns in it, makes you want to watch it again so you can keep up with it better the 2nd time around.

    Also it has inspired me to do a little reading about history….thats saying something about the movie right there! “Remember, remember the 5th of November”….. of course now I have to do some reading abut Guy Falks……

    Perhaps it also apealed to me becuase of the undertones of the goverment killing its own people in order to instill fear into the country and increase their power (think the events of 911).

    Anyway, nice longish engrossing movie, worth your time.
