Long Shots


Ice Cube stars in this movie about the first girl to play on the Pop Warner football team who in turn gives a rundown town some hope for the future. A cute family movie.

Religulous



Bill Maher decides to question various religious beliefs in this documentary film where he travels the globe questioning what some believe to be absolute truth. Whether you agree with him or not it is an interesting film to watch.

Australia


Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman team up in this film about Australia during the 1930's. Kidman plays an uptight lady who travels to Australia to make sure some cattle make it to market. In order to succeed she needs the help of the Drover (Jackman). This was not a good movie and if it wasn't for a couple of huge actors it would have been really painful to watch.

Hellboy 2


Hellboy is back in this sequel about the demon/man secretly working for the government to fight other non-human evils. This time he comes up against an evil Elf trying to cause havoc. The same lovable characters return in this second Hellboy. I enjoy these movies...they are funny and action-packed at the same time. If you like the first you will like the second.

Role Models


After being dumped by his girlfriend Danny (Paul Rudd) goes a little crazy at a power-drink presentation and ends up getting himself and his co-worker Wheeler (Sean William Scott) in trouble with the law. Instead of serving time they are sentenced to working at a mentoring organization where they both get paired with troubled boys. A little crude but very funny movie. The parts were perfectly cast.

Marley & Me


Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson star in this fun comedy/drama about "the world's worst dog". Trying to postpone his wife from wanting to have a baby John Grogan decides to get her a puppy not realizing that she is about to pick Marley who proceeds to cause an amazing amount of trouble for one dog. This movie is funny and sad but overall just a great movie.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop


Kevin James is Paul Blart, mall security officer who lives with his mom and desperately wants to get the girl and become a real cop. When his love interest and shopping mall is taken hostage by bad guys it is up to Paul to save the day. Kevin James is always fun to watch and this movie is no exception. A clean family movie.
