May Catch-up
Seven Days to Noon-1950
Solid British Thriller about a scientist who's a little pissy about the British working on an atomic bomb so he decides to steal it and threaten to blow up London if they don't stop. It moves at a good clip and never really slows down and has some really great performances.
Final Grade: B+
Red Dawn-1984
Having seen this twice before, I knew what to expect but man, I love it more each time I see it. It's got a perfect 80s vibe with the cast and violence that they never really do anymore which kinda sucks.
Final Grade: A
12 Rounds-2009
The second John Cena-starring vehicle from the WWE, it's actually a little better than The Marine. Mostly because of Aidan Gillen as the bad guy who fucking rules and you wish he would just kill Cena throughout the entire movie. Some nice set-pieces, too
Final Grade: C+
The Beast of Bray Road-2008
One of the many cheap-o "SyFy" movies you see on weekends, this one about a goofy looking werewolf just tearing the shit out of terrible actors. Mostly enjoyed it due to some really nice gore.
Final Grade: B-
The Girl with the Pearl Earring-2003
Boring costume drama with Scarlett Johansson and a bunch of British actors, it's not good
Final Grade: F
Four Christmases-2008
I'm a sucker for Christmas movies, no matter how bad and this one is no exception. Really loved the supporting cast.
Final Grade: B-
Blackballed: The Bobby Dukes Story-2004
Dull Mockumentary about a banned painballer trying to get back into the game, I usually love Rob Corddry but this one just didn't do anything for me.
Final Grade: D
Neon City-1991
Ripoff of about a hundred other movies, bunch of people traveling through a wasteland while avoiding crazy people and other shit. It has Michael Ironside and he's pretty much worth giving this movie a watch alone along with some odd scenes and a little of the ol' violence.
Final Grade: B-
Before and After-1996
An almost great film about a family dealing with a son accused of murdering a teenage girl, main reason it doesn't quite get there is because Edward Furlong fucking sucks along with the other kid actor playing his sister.
Final Grade: C+
Hell's Angels '69-1969
I think I'm gonna stick with Biker movies only starring Jack Nicholson or Bruce Dern
Final Grade: F
Nim's Island-2008
Average kid's film, only watched it because...well, I just felt like it pretty much.
Final grade: C
Collateral Damage-2002
A pissed-off Arnold killing the fuck out of a bunch of Colombians, it's a lot of fun.
Final Grade: B
New Moon-2009
Uh, yeah, fuck this movie. I swear everyone in this movie is a depressed little bitch.

Howdy
I don't know why I'm doing this since no one will probably ever read this.
If you ARE reading this, this will pretty much be random not-so-good reviews of all the movies I see, I might do other stuff like lists and shit but odds are I'll get bored with it all in a week and forget it.
