Bridesmaids – Movie Review
Look out boys, the baddest bridesmaids are in town and they’re nursing a lot of grudges!  It’s payback time in Kristen Wiig’s stunningly funny snapshot of a pre- wedding party gone wild.  It’s almost unbelievable that a film about women as coarse, foul mouthed, potty focused and raucous as this has been made.  ... more

MacGruber – Blu-ray Review
Another Saturday Night Live character makes the leap to the big screen… and comes up short.  I’m sure fans of the MacGyver clone will find hilarity but I only found myself thinking how if I had a raw egg, paper clip, and AA battery that I might find a way out of viewing the film.   ... more
