My friends and I were going to Chinook Centre. We, being fat, lazy, and drunk off summer, decided that we were going to watch a movie instead of actually exploring the rest of the mall. Since we’re all highly mature individuals, we chose to watch Madagascar 3. Like a boss. I really loved it. Well,…
In People Like Us, the storyline revolves around a struggling business man, Sam (Chris Pine), who was forced to fly to Los Angeles when his estranged father passed away. Requested to fulfill his father’s final will, Sam was obligated to deliver $150,000 to a sister, Frankie (Elizabeth Banks), whom he was never informed of. Due…

On April 27, I attended a teen-only event at the Calgary Public Library (thanks for hosting it CPL). I honestly had no idea what to expect and I was sure in for a surprise.
Starring Sam Worthington and Elizabeth Banks, Man On A Ledge is simply an overexaggerated heist thriller with a different twist, in my opinion. The story is about an escaped con/ex-cop, Nick Cassidy (Worthington) who is framed by millionaire businessman, David Englander (Ed Harris), since he framed him stealing his $40 million diamond for which he…
It was a movie that I even felt generally positive about upon leaving the theatre. However, despite the fact that I did enjoy the movie, I’d say that the Hunger Games was ultimately a disappointment simply because it could have been much much better.
Lately, I feel like there hasn’t been really good witty or humorous entertainment flying around. Sure, Community started up again and Sherlock’s a great time killer; but I feel like there hasn’t been anything up to par with Hot Fuzz, Shawn of the Dead or Date Night (all excellent movies which I highly recommend). So…
To be honest, with all this fuss around The Hunger Games trilogy, I really thought the movie would turn out to be one of those fan-girl craze subjects again.
If you have not already done so, please read my review of The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay books. When I heard that the Hunger Games movie was PG 13, I was quite disappointed; I could not comprehend how the movie with an age rating under 18A could be anything other than horrible. But…
At the beginning, I honestly felt like Tintin was one of the least perceptive person ever. His dog, who is totally adorable, seems to discover 85% of stuff that moves the story along. Hm. And not only that, but Tintin deals a lot of property damage in the places he’s at. Although he is running from the ‘bad guys’, he still destroys almost half of an entire city.
The other day I saw the new movie, New Years Eve. It reminded me that New Years is coming up so fast and I haven’t even started to think about my resolutions. Welcoming in the new year provides us with a time to reflect on our actions and choices of the past year. For some…
It’s an amazing book, so it has to be an amazing movie, right? How excited are you?
In the past few months, two of my close friends have been diagnosed with different types of cancer at the age of 17. I had always thought that it was something that would never affect people that I knew because up until a few years ago I hadn’t known anyone who had life-changing news or…
If you want a good laugh, then Jack and Jill starring Adam Sandler is right for you. However, if you are looking for a movie that has depth and meaning to it, then you might want to spend your $12 elsewhere.
