I can safely say this much – TWILIGHT IS NO HARRY POTTER!! And I’m still mad we don’t get Harry Potter until this summer. The movie is a little weird but if you’re a fan of vampire stories it’s probably worth seeing. I haven’t read the Twilight books yet and I can definitely tell you [...]

Movie Review: Quantum of Solace

November 21, 2008 By admin

If you’re hoping for the Pierce Brosnan droll-humor-type Bond you’ll not find it in this movie but if you’re a fan of fighting, shooting, fast cars/boats/planes and gripping the edge of your seat for most of the movie, you should enjoy this flick a lot.
