Review + Giveaway Poll – The Ruby Circle (Bloodlines #6) by Richelle Mead

So someone’s been bad. Want to take a wild guess? You guessed right! It’s me! I’m pretty terrible actually.  I was totally sure that I reviewed this book.  That’s why I’m finally posting this review now.  It’s only one of my favorite (if not my all time favorite) YA series!!  I apologize to my fellow Sydrian fans.  I guess I delayed it because I was really hoping this book would…

Jurassic World – The Best Sequel Thus Far!

Last year was a pretty good year to be Chris Pratt. He really shot to the Hollywood A-list fast and into America’s hearts thanks to the successes of The Lego Movie and Guardians of the Galaxy.   He’s become so beloved that adding him to the revered Jurassic Park franchise has been generally welcome. I still remember the original film when I was a kid. It’s one of my favorite movies…

Spy – Funniest Movie of the Year!

Admittedly I am typically not a Melissa McCarthy fan. Sometimes I find her funny, but most of the time she’s too over the top. Her films were beginning to become predictable as well. She always has to team up with another star as if she can’t hold her own.. So I got accustomed to expecting that from her, but sometimes trying something over and over again will eventually strike the…

Insidious 3 Review

It’s difficult to scare me when it comes to horror films.  There’s a very short list of them that I consider well done and most of those are over 20 years old and include zombies (Thank you, George A. Romero).  That said, I thought the first Insidious was creepy enough. I actually don’t even recall seeing the second one but this one seemed promising. Summary: After teen Quinn Brenner (played…

San Andreas

It’s a good year to be Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson! Though to be honest, I feel like I’ve been saying that for a few years in a row. On the heels of the big budget, massively successful juggernaut that was Furious 7 (still the highest grossing film of the year right now), this offers up yet another expensive action excursion of a different persuasion. It’s one we’ve all see before,…

Tomorrowland

Upon seeing the trailer I had no idea what this would be about. I’ve never been to a Disneyworld or Disneyland theme park (yes, tragic) so I didn’t even know it was named after that section of the park until one of the attorneys I work for filled me in while we were chatting about it. Even still, the Disney name alone sold me on giving this one a shot–and…

Mad Max – A Mad Good Time!!

I’d been looking forward to this one. I’m a Tom Hardy fan and most of the time he signs on for some pretty good stuff! Though he’s survived this dystopian society on his own, Mad Max (played by Tom Hardy) is captured.  Taken prisoner by a bunch that is about as uncivilized as it gets, he manages to escape their clutches through a massive car chase. He reluctantly teams up…

Avengers: Age of Ultron Review

In a year absolutely packed with Blockbusters, the king of them all is undoubtedly Avengers 2. Furious 7 has already cracked the billion-dollar barrier in record time (17 days) and we aren’t even halfway through the year yet. Avengers 2 will undoubtedly join it and set a new record in the process. I’ll give it 14-15 days considering it has the 3D markup going for it. Speaking of which, the…
