WALL-E

Best kid/family film of the year; hands down. A love story with robots and little dialogue, this film touched my heart much like "Happy Feet". The wonderfully written, basic plot and amazing animation allows for the characters to come to life. A summer must see for any age.

Meet the Spartans

It will have you cracking up from the get go with following the plot of "300" with inserts of classic TV shows to recent blockbusters. Filled to the max, this film will surely provide you with a handful of laughs and not offend those that were die hard fans of "300" either which is just what a comedy of this sort should accomplish. Must see rental.

The Incredible Hulk

Better than the first "Hulk" that came out in 2003, this one delivers all the action and story line that promises more to come. Providing a quick history of Bruce Banner shown during the opening credits and weak character development were the only slight downfalls, yet this film will hold your attention with its extensive computer graphics and big battle scenes. A great summer film must see.

Baby Mamma

Great story idea, but failed to deliver a continuous comedy. There were some laughs over the process of parenthood, yet a predictable story line made the film dull. A decent rental for a rainy day giggle.

Salted

No Reservations

This film breaks the classic chick flick standards and makes you want to test your hand in the kitchen with all the talk of delicious menus. Head chef Kate has to care for her niece Zoey after a fatal accident which ends up opening her up to new changes in life from her trouble and secluded habits. Well played roles by all actors/actresses, this film touches your heart and allows you to step back to realize the simple pleasures in life. A must see for the summer season.

The Ultimate Gift (2006)

After the death of his grandfather, Jason learns the true meaning of life through a series of gifts; its the message that makes this film worthwhile (based on a book). Staring the girl from Little Miss Sunshine you will laugh and cry while understanding more about the real purpose of life. The story line was well written, some parts were a bit drawn out, but overall the theme of the film makes the viewer think which few films can capture. A good rental and thought provoking.
