John Carter

I really liked John Carter but I believe I was one in 100 people who saw the film in theaters.  I was hoping for the sequel but it looks like that won't happen with the failure at the box office.
I'm still giving the movie a RAD and you should see it.

Dark Shadows

I can finally forgive Tim Burton for that skid mark, Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter.  Dark Shadows didn't do all that great in theaters but it is seriously funny and a lot of fun.  If you have a sense of humor, you like Tim Burton & Johnny Depp films, you like Vampires, Witches, Ghosts and Werewolves you'll like this movie.
Dark Shadows is RAD!

Looper

I am a huge fan of Rian Johnson. Brick is one of my top 10 best films for life.  Rian reunites with JGL and makes his Sci-Fi masterpiece.  Looper is a fantastic film. The cast is perfect and the little boy, Pierce Gagnon is amazing.
This movie is RAD and you need to see it!

Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter

What was this piece of crap? I read the book, which was very entertaining, informative and bad ass.
I just want to ask the filmmakers, "why would you make a movie about a book knowing  the fans of the book would come to the movie and they would probably be the only ones that would come to your movie and have the only thing the book and movie have in common be the title?" "Why?"  "Seriously!"  This was the worst adaptation for the screen I have ever seen in my life. I have no idea how this script got through the executives in charge. The screen writers created new characters and story lines that aren't in the book and took everything that was great about Abraham Lincoln the Vampire Hunter and shat it down the toilet.
Thanks jerks for ruining a kick ass book by making it in to your pitiful idea of a movie!
I guess you can rent it. I think it's in RedBox but I'm not going to recommend it. It is SAD.
READ the book. It's great and it works!
Shame on you Tim Burton!

The Hunger Games

I have read all three of the books and I will see all of the movies. I think they will possibly produce four more but who knows.
I was certainly disappointed by some casting choices and it might have showcased the violence a bit more but the movie overall was RAD.
Definitely rent it. It is out on RedBox. If anything it is more time with Jennifer Lawrence, who is a talented actress.
