A Million Laughs in the West: MacFarlane Hits the Bullseye

27 May 2014 by Jess

A Million Laughs in the West: MacFarlane Hits the Bullseye

The trailers have been hilarious, we all loved Ted and Family Guy, and Seth MacFarlane is a modern day renaissance man, so it wasn’t hard to believe that this was going to be good. But I’ll admit, I had my reservations. This is MacFarlane’s first major turn in front of the camera as an actor, […]

My Compliments to the Chef: Favreau’s New Film Cooked to Order

My Compliments to the Chef: Favreau’s New Film Cooked to Order

Honestly, this was the most fun I’ve had at the movies this year. I am saying this even after I wrote two reviews on Captain America, not because it was better, but because I had a smile on my face almost the entire way through. I loved Cap 2 and totally nerded out the entire […]

Laugh with the Sinners: Get to Know The Wolf of Wall Street

14 May 2014 by Jess

Laugh with the Sinners: Get to Know The Wolf of Wall Street

This was a big movie when it came out. It was sexy, funny, terrifying, and unbelievable in many ways. It’s story about a middle class young man who finds out how to be rich and does just about anything and everything to stay that way. But out of all the guff I’d heard prior to […]

Parenthood, Rogen-ized: Do You Like Your Neighbors?

10 May 2014 by Jess

Parenthood, Rogen-ized: Do You Like <em>Your</em> Neighbors?

The previews for this movie have been pretty hardcore, and if you’ve watched the red band trailers, you know it promises to be not only raunchy but filthy. The film does not disappoint. In a good way. Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne star as the couple with a new baby and a new house who […]

Review: Hit and Run

8 April 2014 by Jess

Review: Hit and Run

I follow Dax Shepard on Twitter, so I knew about this movie when it came out, but I never got around to seeing it. I just found it on Netflix recently, and I was in a binging mood so I watched it. I’d heard it was good, and now I get why! First of all, […]

Book Your Stay at The Grand Budapest Hotel: Anderson Makes It Well Worth Your While

7 April 2014 by Jess

Book Your Stay at The Grand Budapest Hotel: Anderson Makes It Well Worth Your While

I’ve been putting off writing about this film because I was afraid I wasn’t going to be able to do it justice. I’m still afraid of that, but I figured I better just jump in and run with it or I’ll procrastinate forever. First off, if you’ve seen pretty much any of Wes Anderson’s films, […]

Review: Bad Words

Review: Bad Words

I haven’t covered him much on the blog, but I’ve been a big fan of Jason Bateman for a very long time – even before I got hooked on Arrested Development. He’s adorable and wickedly funny, but this, his feature film directorial debut, was prime comedy brilliance. The plot The story centers on Bateman’s character, […]

Review: Veronica Mars

18 March 2014 by Jess

Review: Veronica Mars

Confessions first: I have never seen a single episode of the original Veronica Mars series. But I love Kristen Bell, and the premise seemed like something I would have watched had I known about it when it was on – plus I loved the idea of a Kickstarter campaign for a movie for a series […]

Review: Butter

12 March 2014 by Jess

Review: Butter

This was one of those random indie finds on Netflix that actually turned out to be a fun one. The story centers on a butter sculpture contest. Laura (Jennifer Garner) is married to Bob, a master butter sculpture artist, which has brought their family lots of prestige and fanfare in their smalltown community. Laura doesn’t […]

Review: For a Good Time, Call…

Review: For a Good Time, Call…

I have a feeling that because of some of the subject matter, this one flew way under the radar. So unfortunate, because it was hilarious. The press and social media and everybody and their mother, it seemed, made such a big deal over Bridesmaids and yet a movie like this hardly makes a peep. The […]

About the Blog

This is a place to share my love and excessive fandom of film, actors, and television. I gush a lot, and I complain a lot, usually not simultaneously.

I share recaps and my take on the latest television episodes, any movies I've seen recently, and a little promotion here and there for shows or films that I feel deserve a little more attention than they're getting.

So, kick back, settle in, switch on, tune in, or whatever you have to do and join in on the love for all things that move on-screen.
