Movie Addicts Anonymous!

So Eric and I are HUGE movie buffs!

There are times when either Eric or I just pick out some horrible movies that we either turn off half-way through or we suffered through it and look at each other wondering why we sat through the whole thing. But there are times we pick out movies that we really enjoy and watch countless times and tell everyone about!
Two movies that we recently rented were just that...Amazing!
We had rented a movie called "RED" and another movie called "DeVil".

"RED" is about a man (Bruce Willis) who is retired CIA who ends up getting a"hit" put on him. Come to find out he was listed as "R.E.D." which is "Retired: Extremely Dangerous". He finds his old CIA team and they all reunite to solve on last case! This movie is VERY funny and kind of goes along the lines of Old vs. Young and New. The younger CIA agents might be tough...but with years comes wisdom! There are some big named actors and actresses in this movie. A must buy!

"DeVil", well needless to say I was VERY sceptical and not really interested to watch. I am a fan of scary movies but when it comes to satanic or demons, or paranormal activity, I am not into that. That stuff is TOO scary for me. As we sat down to watch this movie I had this prejudgement that it was just going to be another scary movie. To my surprise it talks about how the devil walks amoung us on this earth, ruling until his day is done. As the movie progresses it gets better and better. Yes, there are some scary parts, but in the end the Devil DOES NOT win! The power of forgiveness is the ultimate theme to this movie! This movie will leave you with a heavy heart. A must see!

As we continue to watch more movies I am sure we will share with all, for movies are a great way to have a family night!

FYI, one movie that we watched that was absolutely terrible was Splice! It's a sci-fi movie and it just goes too far into the "weird/just plain wrong" category!

  1. I have yet to watch Splice. I totally wanted to see it until a friend of mine told me about the "alien sex scenes." Yuck! I'm SO glad I was warned!
