Fairly predictable ending and fairly suspenseful. Still not a bad watch if you can stream it or redbox doesn’t have much to offer. … Read More »

Moneyball (2011)
The assumption is that it’s a boring baseball movie but it’s hardly boring. I could see why it was nominated for best picture but there just no way, it had all the ingredients I could think of for a best picture movie but it is definitely missing something. … Read More »

Chronicle (2012)
The plan was to wait for the DVD to be released but at the time it’s competition in the theatre was non existant; that said I’m glad we did see it, it ended up being a fairly good movie. Without giving anything away it’s not a shaky cam for too long, and it ends up the camera is a fantastic character in the movie.

Kindle Touch
The kindle has been around for a long time and I’d imagine that they’d have a refined UI, it’s not the case with the Kindle Touch. There are times when navigating around gets very frustrating, at very least the touch interface makes it easier but it’s still frustrating none the less.
Since the Kindle is for reading…it’s does an excellent job, however it gets very awkward to hold with a single hand because you need to touch the screen to flip the page.
The one major complaint is how it allows for chapter navigation by swiping up or down, it’s too easy to do this accidentally and the result is … Read More »
