The Hurt Locker Review

I think its ridiculous that to see a great movie like The Hurt Locker you have to check every movie theater in a 50 mile area and hope you find one theater thats playing, while crap like G-Force a movie about secret government operative hamsters is showing on every screen every hour. Its not fair.
Besides that I can honestly say that The Hurt Locker is probably the best movie that I have seen all summer, I can honestly say that it held my attention the entire time. Being that is about a team of US bomb technicians it really makes things suspenseful in a disarm a bomb-race against the clock kinda way. Jeremy Renner plays the rebel bomb tech well as well as the other cast, its all very believable I would imagine in real life it probably play out the same way. If you can find it playing near you its defiantly worth checking out

5 of the Greatest One Hit Wonders of the 90's

90's pop music always makes me laugh when you look back at it now. Thats why I decided to remind everyone in their 20s how stupid some of the music we listened to was back then .

Chumbawamba "Tubthumping"
I really despise this song for not making any sense. I dont care how popular they are in England its still dumb but everyone had that CD.

Chumbawamba - New Music - More Music Videos

Len " Steal My Sunshine"
Again it makes little since and the girl and guy in this music video are brother and sister....creepy.

OMC " How Bizzare"
You should know that "OMC" stands for One-Time Millionaires club.


Savage Garden "Cherry Cola"
I dont really know what to say about this one other than its catchy and you all know it.


Jimmy Ray "Are You Jimmy Ray ?"
The music video is almost as funny as the name implies

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

I'm normally not a big fan of the midnight showings of new movies but I have seen 2 already in this month ,Transformers 2 and now the newest Harry Potter. Of course I didnt learn my lesson from Transformers about getting there before an hour before showtime so I got stuck at the very bottom...again.
Just to note this review isnt coming from someone who is a very big Potter fan or has seen all the movies in the series ( I haven't seen the first one) but I found out that it takes you about 15 minutes into anyone of the movies to make sense of it all because most of the other stories from the ones before dont really matter anyways. What annoys me the most about the movie is that when it starts going somewhere I like it changes and forgets what is was trying to establish. Is it a action movie..kinda, is it a love story...kinda, or maybe a kids movie.....this one not as much. Obviously the kids are a little older and with that the story goes a little darker which is good for the series but it just kinda dances around the true nature of what it really is about. The dark lord Voldemort is supposed to fight the chosen one Harry Potter in some kinda bad ass wizard battle royal or something. At least thats what I get from 12 hours worth of Harry Potter movie that I have seen . Its not like my review is going to stop anyone from going to see it that hasn't already and I dont want to stop you because your probably going to like it anyways. But for a non-Potter movie goer its probably not going to be worth sitting 3 feet in front of the screen in a crowded theater at midnight. I can say the only reason why I can still remember seeing this movie is because I am reminded everytime my neck starts hurting from staring straight up for 3 hours straight.

5 Movies That Holdup to Repeat Viewing

Everyone has those handful of movies that they immediately turn to when you dont have anything new to watch.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off
This is a John Hughes classic of a high school senior skipping class. The way he breaks the fourth wall makes the movie light hearted and always fun to watch.

Naploean Dynomite
I want a Uncle Rico spin-off


Any Transporter movie
My theory on movies that get watched over and over again is that they are never to serious or long. Transporter movies for the most part make no sense and are over in about 90 minutes so it satisfies both categories.


Office Space
A comedy classic. Probably the only thing that I can think of with Ron Livingston in it besides Band of Brothers.

Mean Girls
Maybe because I used to like Lindsay Lohan alot or maybe because its the only good Lindsay Lohan movie or maybe both.

Bruno

Bruno falls into that category of "you really like it or you really hate it". Just like his other movie "Borat", Sacha Baren Cohen creates controversy in the real world as a fictional character that he creates. As the gay Austrian Bruno, Cohen gets into some really crazy situations like a hunting trip in Alabama,a swingers party, and an African American talk show where he shows of his new African American baby named O.J. that he traded for an Ipod. Probably the best part is when he lures then Presidential Candidate Ron Paul into his hotel room and starts to undress and dance for him.
Bottom line is that it really pushes the boundries to the extreme of acceptable content of an R rated movie just like Borat. Its so extreme that it WILL offend some people as did many people in my theater. Go see it if you like Borat, you wont be disappointed.If you haven't and you still want to go see if consider yourself warned.

MadWorld

I think I am currently playing the most violent video game ever made. In fact its only second to horror porn movies in terms of amount of blood splattered. The 13 year old in me is digging it though. I will say that in terms of visuals its alot closer to art them some people would think. To bad the style is ripped from Sin City. Its cool anyways to rip through Varrigan City beating the crap out of people in funny ways for extra points. I really love the visual style but I wish the Wii's graphics were a bit sharper because sometimes it seems a little bit blurry and it would look that much more awesome in HD. The main hero "Jack" has some of the best one liners, as he finds a gang that is about to kill a doctor they ask Jack who he is and his reply "A fan of public health reform".
