Starring:  Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis, and Seth MacFarlane
Director:  Seth MacFarlane
Rated:  R - Runtime:  106 minutes
Genre:  Comedy | Fantasy
This is gonna be short and sweet!  I thought the movie was great!  From start to finish the storyline keeps you interested and laughing.  If you don’t walk away from this one with a huge smile on your face you need to go out buy a Teddy Bear, and wish every night that he will come to life, don’t wait do it right away!  You’re gonna love this little guy and the antics that he gets into during the film.  That’s a promise from the good hands person at your local Teddybear store!!!!  So many great one liners in the movie as well, “regardless of how famous you are, whether you’re ......, eventually nobody give a shit”
My Rating: 4 Mugs of Guinness - aka; 4 Stars for those being too young to enjoy the Irish Ale.

MADEA’S WITNESS PROTECTION (Jun 29, 2012)

Starring:  Tyler Perry, Eugene Levy, and Denise Richards
Director:  Tyler Perry
Rated:  PG-13 - Runtime:  114 minutes
Genre:  Comedy
Not sure how many more of the Madea movies Tyler Perry is going to be able to make before it wears thin.  The actors/actresses in the movie leave something to be desired, it just simply put didn’t make me say Wow, this movie has really outdone the others in the same format.  Basically put, it’s the same old stuff just put in a different atmosphere!!  You know what to expect before entering the theater, so if your up to it go see it but don’t be disappointed when you walk away with that same feeling.

MAGIC MIKE (Jun 29, 2012)

Director:  Steven Soderbergh
Rated:  R - Runtime:  110 minutes
Genre:  Comedy | Drama
Ok ladies, you will love this one!  I have spoken to several women leaving the movie theater after the showing and all I got from each of them were screams and howls as if they had just left the real thing.  For the guys out there, you might want to think about taking your girl to see the movie, but don’t expect to walk away from it with the same reaction that your girlfriend or wife has.  As unfortunate as it may be,  I have to rate this as I saw it....  Sorry ladies
From my viewing I have to say the movie didn’t do that much for me but here again this is from a guys point of view.  I think the movie had a lacking of a great story line and a crumby ending so.... Not more than middle of the road!

YOUR SISTER’S SISTER (Released in Ireland, Jun 29, 2012)

Starring:  Mark Duplass, Emily Blunt, and Rosemarie DeWitt
Director:  Lynn Shelton
Rated:  R - Runtime:  90 minutes
Genre:  Comedy | Drama
This film is a sleeper for sure.  Being released at film festivals around the world from Sep, 2011 thru Jul, 2012 and really not to much mention of it anywhere.  
I took the time to see this and wasn’t disappointed whatsoever!  In short it begins with a group of people gathering together to toast the 1 year anniversary of the death of Jack’s (Mark Duplass) brother Tom.  From there it proceeds to Iris (Emily Blunt), Tom’s ex-girlfriend offering Jack a place to go and clear his head of his brothers death.  Jack finds Iris’s sister Hanna (Rosemarie DeWitt) at the family cabin where no one was suppose to be, and a drunken encounter with her leads to a story that is one that you will like.  It should have had better promoting, having great storyline and an excellent ending!!
My Rating: 3 1/2 Mugs of Guinness - aka; 3 1/2 Stars for those being too young to enjoy the Irish Ale.
