4 stars - January 30, 2012
Rarely does a sequal live up to the original. I really enjoyed The Descent and was very skeptical of watching the sequel. The main character has to re-visit the cave that she barely survived. After she gets into the cave, she must try to survive all over again while finding the friend she thought she killed in the first movie. Sort of a humanoid creature-feature. I would probably watch them back to back if I were to watch them again.

Train
4 stars - January 30, 2012
Train was one of those movies that you kind of know what's going to happen throughout the whole thing. Thora Birch's acting was pretty good though. This movie seems like it tried to hop on the Hostel train, no pun intended. American athletes in college are in Europe and take a train to reach their next destination, however, they obviously don't make it there. I would watch this one again.

Death of a Ghost Hunter
2 stars - January 27, 2012
Death of a Ghost Hunter is a B-level movie at best. It's supposed to represent a documentary about, well the death of a ghost hunter. There is no big names in this film. The acting was okay, some was decent, others were terrible. The story line was interesting, but if you follow any of the ghost hunting shows on tv, you get the gist of what this movie is about. I happened to think it was okay because the main character doesn't survive. It goes against the grain just a tad, but I wouldn't waste my time with this one again.

The Expendables
5 stars - January 6, 2012
What can I say about The Expendables? It was FREAKING AWESOME! I'm a child of the 80's so I grew up watching almost all of the actors. It was action packed as well as a little romantic as well. Dolph Lundgren takes a walk on the "other side" in this movie but is brought back to the good guys at the end. One thing I loved about this movie was that Gary Daniels was in it. Most of you probably won't know who that is but about 14 years ago, I rented his movies over and over and over again. Hot Brit!
I loved the action and explosions, the humor and the story line was pretty good. I can't really see how they could've made this one better.
All of the actors did a great job and I can't wait for the next one!

Working on a lot of reviews!
I have about 50+ reviews I'm working on. I went through my rental history to see what I have watched this year. I have them all started but just need to sit down and crank them out. So keep coming back if you are interested!
