Review: The House Bunny
Chick 1 says:
I rented this to watch with a friend, thinking we might find a guilty pleasure movie. I hadn’t really thought this would be very good but Anna Faris grew on me in the ads.
The Basics: A sweet but vapid Playboy Bunny gets thrown out of the Playboy mansion, the only home she’s ever known. Through dumb luck (pun intended), she gets a job as a house mother at a sorority house populated by lovable losers whose charter is about to be taken away. Hilarity ensues, supposedly.

Review: Eagle Eye
Chick 2 says:
Combine I, Robot with the Matrix and you’ve got Eagle Eye. Jerry Shaw (Shia LaBeouf) and Rachel Holloman (Michelle Monaghan) are swept up in the world of national secret intelligence and forced to carry out the orders of a mysterious female voice on every cellular and mobile device around them. Of course, they soon uncover a plot that threatens national security. I wonder if they thwart it? Read the rest of this entry »

Review: Star Trek
Chick 1 says:
Star Trek, it’s not just for geeks anymore. Well, actually, that’s a little difficult for me to say since I am a geek. But, Oh My Gosh!
What I Liked: Pretty much everything! I was initially drawn to this movie by the cast and they did not disappoint. Read the rest of this entry »

I Can’t Wait: It’s Summer!!!! Part 1
Chick 1 says
:
I wanted to post this a week ago so I could kick off the summer. I know summer is supposed to start Memorial Day weekend or, if you’re a stickler, June 21st, but I’m talking about the summer according to Hollywood. This may not be quite as big a movie summer as last year but there’s still some great stuff on the way. For this post, let’s just take a look at May. Read the rest of this entry »

Randomness: The Hunt for Gollum
Chick 1 says:
I have a confession to make. I’ve hidden this secret from most of my friends for several years now. I hope you’ll still respect me once you know.
I read fan fiction.
If you don’t know what fan fiction is you’re probably not an ubergeek. Read the rest of this entry »

Review: Transformers
Chick 2 says:
Put in some slow motion, a lot of light flares, and a circular dolly track shot and Michael Bay thinks you’ve got a movie. Add some performance footage of a rock band and I admit it would make a good music video. Maybe Bay should stick to that. Read the rest of this entry »

Review: The Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
Chick 1 says:
Expectations have a lot to do with how much I (and most people) enjoy a movie. If your expectations are too high, it’s hard for a movie to live up to them. On the other hand, if your expectations are low, the movie may benefit from that. Such was the case with Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. Read the rest of this entry »

Review: X-Men Origins Wolverine
Chick 2 says:
Or, How I Became Wolverine. Or, What the X-Men Did Before Charles Xavier. Or, … You get the point. I suppose if I were a 25-year-old male who had grown up reading about the spandex clad Wolverine this movie would have thrilled me. As it is, it was a slightly disappointing opening to the summer movie season. Read the rest of this entry »
