An unlucky meter reader enrolls in a confidence-building class so he can win the love of the girl of his dreams. The class turns out to be something quite different when it becomes clear to the young man that his professor has his sights set on the same girl. - IMDB
The main character is Jon Heder from Napoleon Dynamite so you know its going to be silly. With Billy Bob Thorton as the trainer in the confidence-building classes. The acting fit well for a comedy with a little bit of a twisted ending, like all movies they had a twist at the end, which I can't tell you, even with a comedy. There were a few slapstick funny moments, and a good cameo from Ben Stiller.
Overall the movie had me laughing from beginning to end, so I have to give it a good score.
8.5/10
Rated PG-13 for language, crude and sexual content, and some violence.

Sublime [2007]
Admitted to Mt. Abaddon Hospital for a routine procedure, George Grieves discovers that his condition is much more serious and complicated than originally expected; and as his own fears begin to manifest around him, he learns that Mt. Abaddon is not a place where people come to get better... it is a place where people come to die. - IMDB
Most people thought of this as a horror but I would classify this movie as a psychological thriller, with a different ending. Which got revealed a little to early for my taste which enabled me to predict the ending a little sooner than I think the movie should have allowed. The movie over all was very anti climatic and I would only recommend this movie if you are a die hard make you think thriller move.
6.5/10
Rated R for disturbing violent content, language and sexuality.

Back to XP....
That is right I am back to XP. I thought that I had gotten rid of the BSOD by unistalling my ATI drivers but it was not the case. After a long period of testing I was unable to find the source of the BSOD, so without much hesitation at all I will be switching back to XP SP2. It has to be the best operating system that I have ever used, it is fast easy to use and generally has no errors once you have things installed correctly and do not mess around with too many things.
It is a good thing that I have a second hard-drive or else I would be royally screwed with all of this installing and reinstalling of Windows. Expect to see me gaming again tomorrow afternoon if I finish up the yard-work quickly. I have been craving driving a virtual car for the last four days.

Harsh Times [2005]
Jim Davis is an ex-Army Ranger who finds himself slipping back into his old life of petty crime after a job offer from the LAPD evaporates. His best friend is pressured by his girlfriend Sylvia to find a job, but Jim is more interested in hanging out and making cash from small heists, while trying to get a law enforcement job so he can marry his Mexican girlfriend. - IMDB
I have to say that the story was really well done, it is close to what I expected from the description. Not as much action as I expected but a good storyline that draws you in, and makes you want to find out what happens in the end.
Acting was a well done and very believable, and the the Mexico location was very beautiful in my opinion.
I recommend this movie to anyone that enjoys an action drama.
8.5/10

I have gone through some of my movies and I am going to watch the ones that I have not seen yet. Most of them are movies that my dad has got and I didn't notice till now. On the list for movies to review are:
Sublime
Harsh Times
Night in the Museum
School for Scoundrels
This will be the first time that I have done written movie reviews and I hope that you are not disappointed with them.
I will be making sure that they are not just off the top of my head by keeping track of them with Google Documents which is plugged into my BlogSpot account. That way the information is direct and I do not forget anything important.
