A little over three weeks ago the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) announced the nominations for the 83rd Academy Awards. Ten movies were chosen to represent the best motion picture of the year category. Being the movie aficionado that I am, I have seen all ten of these films.

Movie Review at Cinebarre: Robin Hood May 20th, 2010 Posted by Hunter Wilson

I checked out Robin Hood the day it came out at Cinebarre and of course, I had my fill of great food and an entire pitcher of beer. It was great. I love the mix of eating and watching a movie at a reasonable price.

Overall, I will agree with Screen Rant when they say the movie was done well but doesn't tell the story you want to see.

Final Destination 3D: Movie Review September 25th, 2009 Posted by Hunter Wilson

Can you defeat death? Can you escape your fate? In this the fourth installment of the Final Destination franchise, these questions are once again posed to a group of unsuspecting college kids and those around them. Taking a page from the reality of the race track accident which killed fans in the stands several years ago, a scenario which before that accident would seem preposterous, the main characters of the film are carefree as they enjoy the thrill of potentially seeing a car race, which one character notes is only good if there is a wait for it….car crash. Although this is a bit over the top for foreshadowing, Final Destination fans know that this too shall pass and move on to some graphic death scenes, and in this respect, this movie does not disappoint.

Jennifer's Body: Movie Review September 25th, 2009 Posted by Hunter Wilson

Yes, I know what you are thinking! No way could this be good. Too many cliches and teenage debauchery have to have dragged this down. Honestly, it was much tamer than would be expected and most everything was left to the imagination, which is key in creating real horror, as honestly who really needs to see a leg being crushed in an escalator, a la Final Destination 3D.
