To say that I was not sold on the concept of Ant-Man when Ben first mentioned the character is an understatement. It took me months to get on board with Guardians of the Galaxy when it was announced, what with its talking raccoon and walking tree. Continue reading

The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (2015)
Sally
The Man from U.N.C.L.E. didn’t catch on with the public as strongly as I had hoped. I absolutely love this movie, with my interest instantly sparked by its stylish AF trailers. Continue reading
National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007)
Sally
After repeated viewings of National Treasure, I was willing to bite by the time this sequel was released. If I remember correctly, I even saw Book of Secrets in the theater. And this was back when I maybe went to the movies five or six times a year, so that’s really saying something. Continue reading
National Treasure (2004)
Sally
National Treasure is a movie I spent a lot of time trying to hate. I didn’t like Nicholas Cage. I didn’t like its fictionalized take on American history. I didn’t like how Indiana Jones-ish it was trying to be. Continue reading

Sally
National Lampoon’s Vacation is a comedy classic. I always remembered it being great, but it wasn’t until re-watching it this year that I really started to appreciate it. Continue reading

Sally
Deadpool is the franchise starter Ryan Reynolds deserves. After making rom-coms, mediocre comedies, and one truly terrible superhero movie, Reynolds has finally landed the role he was born to play. Even better, the movie studio gods see fit to make this an R-rated romp. Continue reading
Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014)
Sally
I never knew I needed to see Colin Firth as a dapper yet kickass spy. But now that I’ve seen Kingsman, I wonder why he’s wasting so much time making romantic comedies. Continue reading
Chef (2014)
IMDbSally
I’ve got two words for you: food porn. Chef is a great movie, but it will set your stomach rumbling almost immediately. There are entire segments where you are just watching amazing looking food be prepared. I’m drooling just thinking about the grilled cheese sandwich scene… Continue reading
Beginners (2010)
Ben
The real problem with this film is that it is instantly forgettable. There are great actors involved in Beginners, but even they couldn’t save me from feeling very let down after watching this. Continue reading
