Covalent Bonding

Jacob Sahms

I'll admit it: I was wrong. Unlike everything I expected, the Hill-Tatum combo was hilarious, exciting, and action-packed, and made me forget how lame I thought the TV show was.

The Kid With a Bike The Kid With a Bike

Darrel Manson

"I was trying to avoid satire killing off the sense of a love story really, because it's very brutal," says Simon Beaufoy. "I always get very frightened by all the screenwriting manuals in this day that tell you how to write, particularly how to write romantic comedies. I don't really understand how they do that.

If you've followed my reviews (and sometimes my husband's too) on here, you know that I have a soft spot for teen shows. They're just so cute!  

 

The thing is, I was a '90s kid and what I had was a little different. Let's take a trip down memory lane and explore, shall we? OK then, here we go!

 

Growing up, Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen were all the rage. They started out on Full House and during that time until they were around eighteen, they released straight-to-video movies.

When I'm able to make time in my busy schedule, I enjoy watching movies.  Sometimes I'll sit back and laugh at a comedy or become engrossed in a drama.  Sometimes a film will surprise me with its tone or depiction of a situation.   

 

On other occasions, a movie will disappoint me due to poor acting, inferior special effects, or a number of other reasons.

 

But you will rarely see me watch a film from the confines of a movie theater (dollar or otherwise).

 

There are a number of reasons for this...

Happy Feet 2 What Leadership Looks Like

Jacob Sahms

Now on Blu-ray. The animation is absolutely ridiculous. There's a certain humanity to the way that the penguins are represented, but the action amidst the snow and ice almost sucks us into believing that we're watching a documentary.
