This one's for you, Ann! … [Read more...]
Going the Distance
By Tiffany Tweedie Opened September 3, 2010 | Runtime: 1 hr. 49 min. Rated R for sexual content including dialogue, language throughout, some drug use and brief nudity Sorry, girls. I know I said I'd review George Clooney's newest movie, The American. But... I.Just.Can't.Do.It! I don't care for George, I think he's a terrible actor and I can not bring myself to fork over … [Read more...]

PG-13 for brief strong language, some sexual references and male rear nudity Sorry everyone for the delay in getting this review out! Especially since I saw it opening night! (movie reviewer fail!)

The Other Guys
By Tiffany Opened August 6, 2010 | Runtime: 1 hr. 47 min. PG-13 for crude and sexual content, violence, some drug material and language You know all those high-octane, walk on the wild side, crazy, rogue cop buddy movies. Well, this isn't one of them.

PG-13 for sequences of crude and sexual content, some partial nudity and language and sexual content Steve Carell and Paul Rudd, together again (they were both in The 40 Year Old Virgin and Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.)

Inception
By Tiffany Tweedie Opened July 16, 2010 | Runtime: 2 hr. 22 min. PG-13 for sequences of violence and sequences of action This is yet another movie where Leonardo DiCaprio runs around looking confused and constipated. Ok ok, I'm being a bit harsh here.

Feelings like, woot! free movie and press? me? and Ramona? really? is there not a Johnny Depp flick that needs reviewing? But if you know me, you know that woot! free movie won and, hello, I have an 11-year-old … [Read more...]

PG rude humor and mild action When I saw the first trailer for this movie over a year ago, it was a scene with an insanely obnoxious (and all too typical) American tourist family in Egypt and a giant inflatable pyramid. And I remember thinking What.The.Heck?! It didn't really make any sense. Then finally around … [Read more...]
