Brooklyn's Finest

We watched Brooklyn's Finest last night, mostly because there was nothing better in Blockbuster. Turns out, its not a completely bad movie. Don Cheadle, Richard Gere, Ethan Hawke, and Wesley Snipes star in the action packed, New York situated, good cop/bad cop movie.


It definitely keeps you on the edge of your seat, not only because of the possibility of a drive-by in every scene, but also because its almost annoyingly complicated. There is some good acting and a lot of potential, but not alot on delivery. It's entertaining and if you're looking for something to rent, sure check it out. Just keep your expectations low and you'll probably think its ok. Although if something else strikes your fancy at Blockbuster, don't linger too long on Brooklyn's Finest.

The Other Guys

So, its been awhile for the blog. But, I'm going to try to get back to it. So start checking back!

I saw The Other Guys a few weeks ago, and though most people will probably have seen it if they were going to by now, I thought I'd review it. The Other Guys is basically exactly what the previews showed it to be. Another Will Ferrell comedy, with the excellent straight-man Mark Wahlberg. It's funny, but as with most Will Ferrell movies, its better to have low expectations. Not a bad matinee, but at this point if you haven't seen it, just rent it.
