Deception


Ewan McGregor plays Jonathan McQuarry a timid auditor who when one day he meets up with a good looking, savvy lawyer (Hugh Jackman) finds his whole life turned upside down. When they accidentally switch cell phones he finds himself in the middle of a high powered sex club. Of course with the title Deception you know not all is as it seems. I really didn't like McGregor in this role, but I didn't fall asleep...

Sex and the City


All four girls are back in this movie which catches the viewer up on what has been happening since the HBO show ended. People who loved the show will enjoy seeing the movie and finding out what all their leading ladies are up to.

Iron Man


When genius weapons building billionaire Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) gets held hostage by an evil terrorist organization the only way to escape is by building a "superhero" suit. Once he gets home he gives up weapons building and goes to work perfecting his new invention so that he can use it to fight crime.

Mamma's Boy


Jon Heder and Diane Keaton star in this comedy about a man who will just not grow up. Jeffrey still lives at home with his mom and thinks his life is great until one day when his mom gets a new boyfriend (Jeff Daniels). He quickly learns he can either grow up or cope, because things will never be the same. I thought this movie was kind of boring for such a great cast.

27 Dresses



Katherine Heigl stars in this romantic comedy about a girl who is so wrapped up in everyone else's relationships that she isn't living her own life. When her beautiful sister comes into town and instantly goes after her secret "love" her perfect life starts to fall apart. Kind of a corny movie, but since I am a fan of Heigl I still enjoyed it.

The Lazarus Project


Out on parole Ben (Paul Walker) has a good life going until one day when he unfairly loses his job and feels like he has no choice but to resort back to a life of crime. After being caught in a theft gone bad he is sentenced to the death penalty. The day he is to die by lethal injection something strange happens, he wakes up to find himself the maintenance man at a psychiatric hospital. Of course not all is as it seems and he has to figure out what is truth or is he just crazy. I thought this was a really good movie, and not just because I am a huge fan of Paul Walker.

Death Race


Set a little in the future when prison's become a profit business "death races" are formed. Inmates are chosen to race to the death for the Internet viewing pleasure of the world and the financial pleasure of the prison warden. Jason Statham is hand picked and wrongly accused to go to prison for his driving ability and participate in this deadly contest. If you like your movies violent and you like Jason Staham you will love this one.
