MOVIE TITLE: AWAKE

"Jesica Alba, Hayden Christenson, and Terrence Howard star in first-time director/screenwriter Joby Harold's nerve-jangling psychological thriller about a man who experiences the frighteningly common surgical phenomenon known as "anesthetic awareness," in which those laid out on the operating table remain acutely aware of what is going on around them despite remaining completely paralyzed and unable to cry out for help."

Awake was not as good as I was expecting it to be. There were parts that were quite boring for me, including what seemed like 15 minutes were the main guy talks to himself. The main thing about this movie entertaining for me was it having Jessica Alba in it. Although there were quite a few boring parts in this movie for me, I still give it a 7 out of 10 because it did have a twist.

MOVIE TITLE: YOU GOT SERVED

Directed by Chris Stokes, You got served is based around two friends David (Omarion Grandberry), Elgin (Marques Houston), and their crew of break dancers. Everything goes good, doing battles at the local spot where groups go to battle with dance. Mr. Rad (Steve Harvey) is the host of the local battle spot, he keeps things in order between groups.

Things go well until this new crew comes to town lead by Wade (Christopher Jones) and challenges their crew with a bet of $5000.00. The challenge comes earlier than expected so Elgin does what he has to to get the money they need. Now and then David and Elgin do jobs for this one guy dropping money off places, one night when Elgin and David are supposed to do a run David is out with Elgin's sister Liyah (Jennifer Freeman) and Elgin gets held up. After that Elgin blames David and things get heated and the crew splits up.

Elgin is in trouble as he only has a few weeks to get the money back that was jacked from him. There is a big contest coming up with a grand prize of $50,000 with the best crews from all over showing up. When all things come down to it the only way they can win is if Elgin and David put the past behind them and team up once again. When things get tight at the contest they receive a surprise when Oscar shows up, he's just what they needed to be put over the edge.

You got served has a great soundtrack as well from popular Hip Hop songs to a remix of the Fur Elise classical, who ever thought put a beat to Fur Elise was thinking outside the box! This is a mix of drama and comedy, I give it a 9 out of 10.

MOVIE TITLE: THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY

“Filled with endless laughs and unbelievable sight gags, this “cheerfully crude and way over the line” (Los Angeles Times) romantic comedy is a “gut-busting blast” (USA Today). Still suffering from a high school crush on Mary (Cameron Diaz), the nerdy, angst-driven Ted (Ben Stiller) tracks her down thirteen years later with the help of sleazy private investigator Pat Healy (Matt Dillon). But after one look at Mary, Healy decides he wants her for himself and soon the two men are engaged in an outrageous all-out battle for Mary’s affections.”

This is a pretty funny romantic comedy; a high school crush lasts 13 years so he hires a guy recommended by a friend to find his high school crush. They both want her which makes it funny as they fight for a girl everyone seems to be wanting! I give this movie a 7 out of 10, would be hire but throughout the movie there are these two guys who sing and they annoyed me, but I loved the ending!

MOVIE TITLE: THE STONED AGE

"Crank it up and get into the groove with two radically hellacious buds, Joe and Hubbs. It's the grooy 70's and music and parting are king! The dudes are out crusin' one night in the Blue Torpedo (a blue Volkswagon) when they eyeball Tack (a dude), who tells them where to find some burlacious (hot) babes. They jam and meet Lanie and her friend Jill. Lanie turns out to be more than Joe and Hubbs ever imagined - TALL, BLONDE, AND BEAUTIFUL! The buds think they're stylin' (looking cool) until Tack shows up. He leads everybody to a wild party where the girls are abundant and the dudes are party kings. Everything and everyone come loose as the guys hit the party and go for it. For Joe and Hubbs it's the night of their lives with the girls of their dreams. No one doubts this is one unbelievably rad (incredible) night. CHECK IT OUT!"

This is a low budget movie that's supposed to take place in the 1970s era, however, you can clearly see cars from the 80s and 90s in the flim. The movie it's self was touch and go, some parts was ok while other parts just wasn't very good. This movie is based on under age drinking and a couple of buddies who keep tryin to get into some girls pants, one is the pushy type while the other friend just wants to take it slow. I give this movie a 7 out of 10 because while some parts was not appealing to me, I would watch it again sometime. This movie also has some nudity in it.

MOVIE TITLE: PRIVATE RESORT

Chasing women for the weekend at a luxurious Miami resort, teen buddies Ben and Jack (Rob Morrow and Johnny Depp) get more than they bargained for after crossing paths with a crafty criminal. Throwing their hormone-driven plans off kilter, the two friends run afoul of a cross-dressing jewel thief (Hector Elizondo) and find themselves under scrutiny from a prying hotel detective. George Bowers directs the racy high jinks of this 1985 sex romp.

Johnny Depp stars in this 1985 comedy, I had never seen it before last night but I am glad I came across it searching the instant Netflix movies. This movie was packed with comedy, girls in bikini's (and out of them), and it seemed like every few minutes somebody was hurt or in trouble. I enjoyed this movie, I give it a 8 out of 10! Oh and for all the women that just love Johnny Depp not long into the movie he's butt naked...I could have done without that myself though.

MOVIE TITLE: THE OTHER SIDE

I thought the other side was a pretty good movie, one of the better movies I have seen lately based on people coming back from the dead (not zombified). In this strangely action packed movie the story base is that a young man is killed (this happens fast, I looked at my plate then back up and he was in another realm), then some others in this realm take him with them as they have found a exit from hell (AKA the pit), and then they have reapers after them to bring them back.

As if being chased by hell bound reapers wasn't bad enough, he comes back to find his girlfriend who was supposed to meet him the night he died is now missing! I give this movie a 9 out of 10 and would diffidently watch it again. As it has gory violence it's not one for children, then again what movie with hell bound reapers chasing down those who have escaped is for kids?

MOVIE TITLE: THE DARJEELING LIMITED

When I put in the Darjeeling limited the other night I didn't realize that there was a short clip (part 1) before the actual movie (part 2). Part 1 didn't make much since to me and threw me off at first. After the 2nd part started it wasn't so bad, still a bit weird.

It had it's funny parts, a couple nudity parts an the story base wasn't all that good, I would give this movie a 5 or 6 out of 10. Not much else to say on this movie. Next review: Sunshine!
