Confessions Of A Shopaholic

This movie is breezy, light and fluffy much like the main character, Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher). Unfortunately for Rebecca, the movie has a lot of money to back it up (produced by Jerry Bruckheimer) while our heroine is up to her ears in credit card debt as a result of her “can’t say no” shopping [...]

There are a whole lot of things to love about this movie and an equal number of things to hate. The acting and humor are exemplary, especially in the case of Clint Eastwood who seems to have his growl and squinty eyed look down to a science. On the other end of the spectrum is the racial [...]

Bedtime Stories

Are you looking for a movie to bring the kids to? Or maybe you just want to see a comedy that will make you laugh. This movie could be the solution to either of the above scenarios. Of course you might say that Adam Sandler movies are “rude and crude” and not suitable for the younger set. In the [...]
