The Grey on Netflix... I give it a 6/10. Liam Neeson was good in the lead role but his surrounding cast and, more importantly, the ending left a lot to be desired.

A MUCH BETTER man vs. animal/nature survival film was "The Edge" w/ Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin, IMO. I'd hoped "The Grey" would be a movie that was something along those lines but, unfortunately, no.

The ending was like the director didnt know how to end it.

The adventure part of the movie, the crash and survival journey were great though.

Snow White and the Huntsman

8/10

It wasn't even close to what I thought it would be. It was actually really well acted and well directed.

It did seem like that was the case, didn't it?

Best parts of the movie, keeping it above a 5/10 final grade in my book. With a solid ending, "The Grey" could have easily gotten an 8/10 from me. Sad to say, it fell short.

You should man. I thought it was going to be some cheesy love story but heard good things about it. The acting by Charlize Theron was stellar and the overall movie was very very good. Not even close to a love story. It was also a lot darker than I thought it would be.

It was a bit too gruesome for my liking.

Think Like a Man

I enjoyed this movie a lot more than I thought I would and laughed out loud several times.

Most of all, I loved the casting. 4 out of 4 stars.

I don't know what happened to the picture of Taraji P. Henson that I posted but she can't be left out.

Tokyo Gore Police.

Just could not finish it.

I like gore, I like cheesy and I like Japanese movies.

This one however was just too over the top and silly for me to finish.

However I will say that I could see this being a great movie to make a drinking game out of and be much more entertaining while drinking or drunk.

Drive - 8/10.

Best movie I've seen in a while. No frills.

There is no formula for success except an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings.
