TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY Review
"Hasta la vista, baby." Terminator 2: Judgment Day was one of the more revolutionary films made at the time, seeing as CGI wasn't used as often as it is nowadays. In fact, I'm pretty sure this and Jurassic Park were one of the early films that showcased a lot of groundbreaking visual effects work. As for the film itself? Well, I personally loved it back when I first saw it and still love it to this day. Not only is it a great continuation of what James Cameron did on the firs

THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING Review
"All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you." The Lord of the Rings trilogy has been an influential set of films within the modern blockbusters.

And realizing that it's been 25 years since this action flick came out, I figured it was time to give my thoughts on it.

NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN Review
Despite not being the biggest Coen brothers fan, there's something about No Country For Old Men that just clicks for me. Whether it'd be the terrific ensemble, the detailed writing, or the quiet but subdued pacing, it's a film that's always been on my mind for quite some time. The film follows Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin), who stumbles upon a botched up drug deal and takes a briefcase that holds $2 million in cash. He discovers he's being followed by a merciless killer by the
