unbiased review comments you post for each film. We have an over abundance of media out there and it's a big waste of time trying movie after movie, only to decide 20 minutes or so into the film that it's not worth watching. This sounds interesting and a good choice for a lighthearted before bed movie.

Thanks Again!

I do a bunch of research before I pick a movie to watch. I check the IMDb score, read a few of the viewer's comments, and check the Rotten Tomatoes score. Even then, only about half of the movies are really good. The motto on my music blog is "I listen to a lot of crap, so you don't have to." My motto for my movie blog should be: "I watch a lot of mediocrity so you don't have to."

Be sure to have some Kleenex handy for this one.

So many great movies that fly under the radar. It's a shame they aren't better known.
