Review: Haywire

5 March 2014 by Jess

This movie was a lot of fun. I had never seen Gina Carano before this (though I’ve seen her since in Fast and Furious 6), but she proved that she’s one to watch in the years to come. She can do badass, and actually serve up a great performance. Carano plays Mallory Kane, a former […]

Review: Man on a Ledge

19 February 2014 by Jess

We all know how much I love Sam Worthington, but it’s not without good reason! The man is a rock star. And even though this movie does have a few cliches in it, plot-wise, it was still a fun ride. Nick Cassidy (Worthington) has just escaped from prison, doing time for a high-profile robbery he […]

Review: Closed Circuit

3 September 2013 by Jess

I had higher expectations for this movie, and unfortunately, it fell a little flat. Don’t stop reading yet, it did have its merits!

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 my take on the latest movies I’ve seen (some new, some new to me, and some classics that are worth a rewatch), 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.
