Cedar Rapids

Insurance agent Tim Lippe(Ed Helms) who's never left his small hometown and never fully experienced life is suddenly giving the task of being the representative for his company, at the annual insurance convention. Grossly naive to his surrounding and meeting new people like Bree(Alia Shawkat) a local prostitute he befriends, soon Tim meets his roommates Ronald Wilkes(Isiah Whitlock Jr.) and Dean Ziegler(John C. Reilly) who will show him the ropes, and push him beyond his limits. Tim is a man who plays by the rules, but these rules will gets tossed out fast.

Directed by Miguel Arteta, this dark comedy is seriously funny. Ed Helm has a lovable character and he and the whole cast will have you laughing non stop. This is a must see movie.

I give this movie 4 Stars.

Kim Kardashian: Dreaming The Dream

Kim Kardashian, the reality star has a new dream, to become a recording artist and this is another accomplishment that Kim can officially can check off. Produced by The-Dream who has worked with famous artist like Beyonce, Rihanna and Usher, to mention a few in the music industry, as a producer/songwriter. This award winning producer has the ability and experience to spot talent and The-Dream saw something special in Kim.

After hearing just one of her single, Jam(Turn it Up)" I concluded that Kim has a really good voice, something that surprised me and no doubt the general public will be too. Unlike her frenemy Paris Hilton who can not sing, Kim truly does have a lovely voice. I do see a future for Kim in the music business if she stays in the company of the right producers and songwriters, just like Jennifer Lopez did with Diddy making her a billboard hit artist, so can Kim. So when this single come out, everyone will be shocked at her abilities, but never underestimate the power of Kim Kardashian.

A full review will be posted once the whole album is done.

Drive Angry

Milton(Nicolas Cage) has broken out of hell with one thought on his mind, revenge. Milton want to redeem his granddaughter, after his daughter is viciously murder by cult leader Jonah King(Billy Burke). He's joined by Piper(Amber Heard) a sexy young waitress who Milton helpe's after she walked in on her boyfriend with another woman. Now, the two of them are on the road in hot pursue of Jonah. But worse, an mysterious killer known only as "The Accountant"(William Fichtner) has been sent to earth by the "Devil" to collect Milton and bring him back. Milton must use his anger to push beyond all human limits to find Jonah and save his only connection to his daughter and stay ahead of the accountant.

This film is a cheap imitation of gridhouse but in 3D. Nicolas Cage performance is laughable and robotic, once being consider a good actor he has fallen far from his performance in "ConAir" and "National Treasure". The true standout of the film are; William Fichtner and Amber Heard. In the past William Fichtner has appear in supporting role character, this movie prove he can be leading man material, and as for Amber Heard she someone to watch out for she a star on the rise.

I give this movie 2 1/2 Stars.

This Sci-Fi action thriller is directed by D.J.Caruso who best known for(Eagle Eye and Disturbia), and we can add another hit to his resume. I am number four will be a hit, with the action, storyline, characters, aliens, and the special effects this movie is unbelievable, leaving it open for a sequel, absolutely.

I give this movie 4 Stars.

How Do You Know

After Lisa(Reese Witherspoon) has made her athletic career her main focus a priority for 27 years, she doesn't know what to do when she is cut from the U.S.A Women Softball League. Staggering towards a normal life, that she's never had before, outside of sports. So, on the day she is cut from the team, she decided to go out on a blind date with George(Paul Rudd) a sweet businessman who's being investigated by the government. With complications like that for both, how can't it not be magic? Soon after Lisa starts dating Matty(Owen Wilson) a major league baseball player and known ladies man. Meanwhile, George's father Charles(Jack Nicholson) is working with his son so they both won't go to prison. Before Lisa's relationship with Matty started, she and George share a very special date that George can't forget. Now Lisa finds herself in the middle of a love triangle, with a businessman friend and her current baseball player boyfriend.

Director James Brooks is best known for his hits, "Terms of Endearment", "As good as It Get", and " The Simpson's". He has an eye for good comedy and this one is no doubt another hit for this award winning director. Reese Witherspoon and Jack Nicholson are always wonderful, but leave it to comedy pros Paul Rudd and Owen Wilson to steal the show. This is a must see.

I give this movie 4 Stars.
