I’m a sucker for a love story, regardless of how ridiculous and unbelievable it is. The Prince of Denmark decides to escape the royal family by traveling to Wisconsin (yes, Wisconsin) to attend college. He falls in love with a pre-med student and proposes marriage. Following the Cinderella-like story, Paige (played by Julia Stiles) travels […]

This turned out to be a surprisingly decent movie. Maggie Gyllenhaal plays Sherry, a woman recently released from serving a three-year prison sentence. As she tries to return to her old life, she realizes it’s hard to get by without the support of others. Gyllenhaal does a good job of showing the desperation of trying […]

I had many preconceptions before watching this movie, and my low rating reflects that. First, I read “The Other Boleyn Girl” and “The Queen’s Fool“, both of which are about Anne Boleyn and her daughter, Elizabeth, respectively.

Not my typical movie genre, but I thought this movie was decent. If the ending was a bit more positive, I would’ve even probably given it a 3/5. If the main character wasn’t played by Jason Statham, I don’t think I would’ve like the movie at all. For some reason, Statham does a good job […]
