Movie Review: ‘Pain & Gain’ Starring Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson, Anthony Mackie

Posted: April 25, 2013 at 10:54 pm   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

Michael Bay has been responsible for a number of less than stellar films over the years. Some of them were downright stinkers, i.e. Transformers: Dark of the Moon. He has also been a producer on some of absolutely horrid remakes, i.e. The Hitcher and A Nightmare on Elm Street. So, when I heard he was […]

After watching Wrestlemania 29 last night, one would figure that the WWE would have put on a better show. I’m not saying the WrestleMania 29 was bad, but it wasn’t incredible either. Thinking back to the pay-per-view, I’m left with a glass half empty feeling. One of the main problems for me was the crowd. The crowd […]

If one were to see me at my day job, it would be hard to imagine that I eat, breathe and sleep professional wrestling. Ever since I was a little boy at age 6, my grandfather would take me to the old Arena to see Hulk Hogan. The Hulkster was the end all, be all […]

Lots of movies hitting store shelves today, and in my opinion, lots of movies that would be good rentals rather than a good addition to your at home collection.  You may disagree.  I know a couple of people headed out to pick up the first sci-fi epic on the list today, and others may just […]
