Hall Pass
It was OK. It was a cute premise but it never quite got going. Owen and Applegate are the highlights.
Source Code
Pretty good. It was derivative of Deja Vu, 12 Monkeys and Groundhog Day to name a few. If you like those movies and scenery of Chicago then this is a good rental. Not much action and pace is a little slow.
Horrible Bosses
Very funny, raunchy comedy. It’s in the style of Hangover with a Jaime Fox character named after Samuel L Jackson’s favorite expression. If you can get through the language and vulgarity then it sustains story and comedy. The movie is full of botched movie references like “Throw Mama from the Train” & “Strangers on a Train”

Troll Hunter
Troll Hunter was fun. You have to take it for what it is and enjoy it. It’s in the same style as Blair Witch and Cloverfield. Trolls are real and the government agency TSS has the job to keep them in their territory or put them down with UVB light.
Blue Trip
Elise’s Book
Bad Teacher
Raunchy. It could have been a cute PG-13 but they went for the R instead. Funny moments but not enough to fill the void.
Green Lantern
It kinda sucked and then Tim Robbins showed up and made it worse. The plot and characters did not fill the scenery. At least we did not pay extra to see it in 3-D.
Robopocalypse
Fisherman’s Friend
Back at the motel I was hanging out by the pool under a nearly full moon. I was watching the other guests come into the parking lot and noticed a small gray cat skulking around. The cat was obviously people-weary but it ran toward each recently parked car or truck.… Read the rest “Fisherman’s Friend”
