Beowulf = Beoskip


Such possibilities such sorrow. I vaguely remember reading the story of Beowulf in 9th grade but I didn't remember it being quite so violent. It started out interesting until I saw the monster Grendel biting off heads and tearing apart bodies. Beowulf is the last of the heroes and goes to stop the monster Grendel for money and fame. Grendel is killed and his mother (Angelina Jolie) takes revenge. Beowulf makes a deal with her and becomes king. Beowulf has more troubles later as an old King when his deal with Gredel's mother is broken. He must fight a dragon more deadly than any monster he has faced before. Good story but I still say skip it unless you want to catch up on your mythology. However, the special effects were amazing and the dragon at the end was really well done.

88 Minutes


This is a movie I was very interested in seeing. I love the whole concept to race against time. Death vs life, Murder vs law. From what I've read and heard this is a disappointment. It's regular Al being Al. (Big and loud!) Don't get me wrong, I love big and loud Al so there is still hope for this for me. Tick Tock!

The Iron Man


Iron Man looks to be an awesome comic book made to movie. Iron Man is a human super hero much like Batman. With millions of dollars to use for the good vs evil cause, Tony Stark is one tough SOB. I am very excited to see this movie and will write about it soon. It comes out in early May.
