Movie Review: Olympus Has Fallen
Olympus Has Fallen is this year’s Independence Day, without all of the special effects. I found the film to be very relevant given all that’s going on in North and South Korea. It’s a scary premise folks, and most likely not that far off from reality. However, I did find it very hard to believe that the White House could be taken over in just 13 minutes; one would like to think that this would be ...[Read More]

Movie Review: Dolphin Tale
Dolphin Tale made me very happy – it was really awesome. I liked the way that it made me feel both sad and happy at the same time. It was Dolphin Tale-tastic! It is a good story and moves kind of fast. The 3D effects were not very good, although they were cool in the beginning. But everything else about Dolphin Tale was really great.
