So I own a lot of movies that revolve around baseball. It is my favourite sport, by some margin. This was one of the few I did not own, it was a recent addition from Sally’s collection. My favourite part about this movie is that they changed the ending after the Red Sox won the world series in 2004. Continue reading

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

So this is where our Lord of the Rings reviews get a little weird. As you have no doubt have noticed, we have not reviewed the final film of The Hobbit series, The Battle of the Five Armies. This is due to the fact that it has not yet been released on DVD, but honestly I don’t care if I ever see it. Continue reading
The Fifth Element (1997)
IMDb
Ben
I have to admit, I have never really loved this film like so many others do. Which is really surprising considering my general love for most things sci-fi. For whatever reason, when it was first released, The Fifth Element just didn’t appeal to me like I expected it too. Continue reading
Forrest Gump (1994)
IMDb
Ben
I had not seen Forrest Gump in a long time and had forgotten what a good film it is. There are so many quotable moments in this movie. From ‘life is like a box of chocolates’ to ‘stupid is as stupid does’, there are a number of iconic quotes from this film. Continue reading
The Fugitive (1993)

Harrison Ford didn’t kill his wife, and Tommy Lee Jones doesn’t care. For the longest time that was all I knew about The Fugitive. Like, did you know this was based on a TV show? Continue reading

Ask any woman between the ages of 27 and 35 to sing “Part of Your World” from The Little Mermaid, and I guarantee she will know every single lyric of that song. Continue reading
From Dusk till Dawn (1996)

Before we watched From Dusk till Dawn Ben asked me if I had ever seen it before. When I answered no, he laughed and replied, “This is a really weird movie.” He was not wrong. Continue reading
Freaky Friday (2003)
IMDb
Sally
I know that Freaky Friday was aimed at Lindsay Lohan’s peer group, but let’s be real– this movie is all about Jamie Lee Curtis. Even before Lohan went off the deep end and it became tough to watch her movies I always thought this was Curtis’ film. Continue reading
42 (2013)
IMDb
Sally
I’m not a baseball fan. It was never a sport that my parents watched much when I was growing up (something that’s changed since the Red Sox started doing well), and while I enjoy attending games, it’s not an activity I want to do often. So when Ben and I visited the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum a couple years ago I figured this would be a stop just for him, the way the Mark Twain House was a stop just for me. Continue reading
The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005)
IMDb
Sally
This is one of my favorite comedies of all time. It’s full of crude humor, but underneath that is a sweet, heartfelt story that actually treats the subject matter with respect. The 40-Year-Old Virgin is still funny nearly a decade later thanks to the great performance of Steve Carell. Continue reading
