Need for Speed Movie Poster

January 2, 2014 by Samantha Leave a Comment

DreamWorks Pictures’ “Need for Speed” marks an exciting return to the great car culture films of the 1960s and ’70s, when the authenticity of the world brought a new level of intensity to the action on-screen. Tapping into what makes the American myth of the open road so appealing, the story chronicles a near-impossible cross-country journey for our heroes — one that begins as a mission for revenge, but proves to be one of redemption. Based on the most successful racing video game franchise ever with over 140 million copies sold, “Need for Speed” captures the freedom and excitement of the game in a real-world setting, while bringing to life the passion for the road that has made our love of cars so timeless.

Million Dollar Arm Trailer

December 30, 2013 by Samantha 1 Comment

In a last ditch effort to save his career as a sports agent, JB Bernstein (Jon Hamm) concocts a scheme to find baseball’s next great pitching ace. Hoping to find a young cricket pitcher he can turninto a Major League Baseball star, JB travels to India to produce a realityshow competition called “Million Dollar Arm.” With the help of a cantankerous but eagle-eyed retired baseball scout (Alan Arkin) he discovers Dinesh (played by Madhur Mittal from “Slumdog Millionaire”) and Rinku (played by Suraj Sharma from “Life of Pi”), two 18 year old boys who have no idea about playing baseball, yet have a knack for throwing a fastball. Hoping to sign them to major league contracts and make a quick buck, JB brings the boys home toAmerica to train. While the Americans are definitely out of their element in India — the boys, who have never left their rural villages — are equally challenged when they come to the States. As the boys learn the finer points of baseball — JB, with the help of his charming friend Brenda (Lake Bell) — learns valuable life lessons about teamwork, commitment and what it means to be a family.

Duck Dynasty Season 1-3 Collector’s Set

December 18, 2013 by Danielle 1 Comment

Disclosure: The Duck Dynasty Seasons 1-3: Collector’s Set was provided to me for my family in order to facilitate my review. All opinions are my own and honest. I am disclosing this in accordance to FTC Guidelines. Please see “Disclose” tab for more information.

Everywhere you look there are Duck Dynasty products. They have floor mats, blankets, plants, lunch boxes, etc. This show has definitely sweeped the nation. My husband and I have enjoyed watching this one since their second season. Somehow we didn’t know it existed the first season (I blame becoming parents:) ). This Holiday Season they have released the Seasons 1-3 Collector’s Set.

About the Duck Dynasty Collector’s Set:

With these down-home millionaires from Louisiana, there’s always somebody up to something that you can rest assured somebody else isn’t going to like. See what happens when Willie hosts his own radio show, but makes the mistake of bringing Uncle Si on the air with him. You can also watch how his employee retreat fails to build trust among the Duck Commander team. Catch Jase’s plans to prevent Missy from finding out he’s lost his second, newly replaced wedding ring. But the Robertsons never back down from a challenge, always taking on new adventures. Whether it’s a family cooking, fishing, or football competition; a blind leap into winemaking; a spontaneous road trip in the RV; or their run-ins with critters of all kinds, this clan makes the most of their funny business.

Lone Ranger Movie Review

December 18, 2013 by Samantha Leave a Comment

The Lone Ranger has recently been released on Blu-ray combo pack and we are going to be taking a look at this loved and not loved movie. But first some ground rules, throw out your idea of who the Lone Ranger is from radio and TV yester-year. Here is the background which is needed, Lone Ranger is a western. Think cowboys and bad guys locking horns for peace and justice. The Lone Ranger and Tonto being the good guys and Butch Cavendish and his gang the bad guys.

When released in theaters there were quite a few negative reviews about The Lone Ranger, most of which I feel were because of the updates to the story and characters. One of which was to cast Johnny Depp as Tonto. I feel there needed to be a change to the characters and story. People don’t want to see the same song and dance they could have seen decades ago. The audience wants to see something new and fresh and there is nothing newer or fresher then Johnny Depp in war paint and a huge headdress. With big action and some silliness The Lone Ranger might even become one of your surprising favorites. The biggest of action scenes at the end of the movie which is to say the very least epic and masterfully done. The movie is a great action movie which will keep everyone interested. It is rated PG-13 for mainly action and violence so maybe not the best pick for a little one movie.
