Kids Review Wall-E

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

I’ve only read really good reviews about the Pixar movie, Wall-E. The local paper where I live gave it 5 stars and my fellow average dude said, “it’s really really good”, a review that will surely make it on the DVD cover. Now you can’t beat that right. Well it is a children’s movie so what do all the kids seeing it think. PIxar is known for throwing in many jokes meant for the parent that often get overlooked by the core audience, the children.

The fellas over at CollegeHumor.com got the 411 on just what the kids thought of this new Pixar flick:

Review - Wii Fit

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

The Nintendo Wii has been one of the biggest successes in video game history. I have no statistical data with which to back that statement, but take my word for it. Damn near everyone I know owns a Wii, including my mom. Even now, a year and a half after its launch, you’re lucky if you find one available to buy without checking eBay.

Nintendo has repeated this success with Wii Fit, a new game/peripheral bundle that gets you up off the couch and into various yoga poses, strength training exercises, and balance games. Wii Fit is pretty much as hard to find as the Wii itself, so obviously there’s a ton of hype surrounding it. Can this thing possibly live up to such expectations? Let me tell you, it absolutely does.

Review - Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

Smash Bros. Brawl TitleAnyone who owned a Nintendo 64 or a Nintendo Gamecube has probably heard of Super Smash Bros. It’s a series of fighting games that pits a bunch of famous Nintendo characters against each other in fierce battles to the death. For a Nintendo fan, there’s nothing cooler than playing as Mario and being able to beat the crap out of Princess Peach.

Nintendo recently released the third game in the series called Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Despite a few shortcomings, I completely recommend this game for any Nintendo fan who owns a Wii. (more…)

Review - Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock

Monday, February 25th, 2008

Guitar Hero 3 CoverI’ve spent the past two days with my ass glued to my couch rockin’ out with the likes of Pat Benetar, Metallica, and Poison. While it sounds like a stoner’s daydream, I’ve actually been playing Guitar Hero 3 on my XBox 360. After beating the game on its Medium difficulty and suffering a wicked hand cramp as a result, I feel like I’ve experienced enough to recommend it to anyone with a video game console and a desire to have fun.

Review - Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Thursday, February 7th, 2008

Call of Duty 4 TitleI’m the kind of guy that loves the idea of starting a new, epic game, especially when said game gets really high reviews all around. Unfortunately, I’m also the kind of guy that quickly gets caught up in other things (namely, life), forgets what I had been doing in said game, and then quits playing it due to frustration at having no idea what’s going on. Call of Duty 4 was different, for better or worse. It’s a white-knuckle action shooter that’s pretty short overall, but it’s definitely worth the cost of admission. (more…)

Review - I Am Legend

Friday, December 28th, 2007

I Am LegendIt’s rare that a movie can completely surprise me nowadays. Trailers usually give so much of a movie away that by the time you’ve finally watched it, you feel like you had already seen it once before. That was not the case for me when I saw I Am Legend. I went into it completely unaware of the plot and I think it helped me enjoy the movie a lot more than if I knew exactly what to expect. (more…)

Review - Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story

Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

Walk HardIt’s the holiday season. The Christmas spirit is in the air. The Oscar movie season has begun. Sadly, none of those things apply to our latest comedy by Judd Apatow, Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. You may be asking, “Who the hell is Judd Apatow?” He’s the man who brought us Anchorman, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up, and Superbad.

Ahhh yes, that guy. (more…)
