Rambo IV (Review – B+)

Friday, 2008 January 25 James O'Neill1758Leave a Comment on Rambo IV (Review – B+)

Rambo IV is not for the squeamish or the faint of heart with it’s ‘Saving Private Ryan‘ level of gore and blood bringing to the forefront the horrors and atrocities committed in the senseless and inhumane ethnic cleansing in Burma. Perhaps after this movie you will question whether humanitarian efforts there are even worth it […]

’27 Dresses’ (Review – C+)

Thursday, 2008 January 24 James O'Neill1543Leave a Comment on ’27 Dresses’ (Review – C+)

We went to see the movie ‘27 Dresses‘ last night. *sigh* =) It was a standard fare chick flick whose plot is standard for chick flicks. The actresses – Hawt! The acting was good, nothing overly inspiring but good. ‘P.S. I Love You’ was a far better movie and much more powerful and evocative. If […]

"The Golden Compass" (Review – B+)

Friday, 2008 January 11 James O'Neill15971 Comment on "The Golden Compass" (Review – B+)

My wife and I went to see ‘The Golden Compass‘ last night even though we were told to wait to rent it. This movie is in the stylistic vein as Narnia and is about as tense. A good movie for older children. It was a high fantasy movie with a little lesson about truth and […]

Aliens vs. Predator: Requim (Review – B)

Saturday, 2008 January 5 James O'Neill1732Leave a Comment on Aliens vs. Predator: Requim (Review – B)

To put this a little in perspective I watched the first three Aliens movies this week and I think I was sitting a few rows too close to the front. I had heard a little bit about the plot online – specifically that it breaks from canon a little bit. Aliens vs Predator: Requiem was […]

The FedEx Experience

Wednesday, 2008 January 2Friday, 2018 July 20 James O'Neill1850Leave a Comment on The FedEx Experience

So, I mentioned earlier that the Royal Holiday people in Hyatt in Cancun told us that we should take the Royal Holiday welcome package back to the US since we had to send it back to their home office in Miami. I sent the materials back through our local Mailboxes Etc… (who were really great) […]

‘P.S. I Love You’ (Review – A)

Friday, 2007 December 21 James O'Neill16112 Comments on ‘P.S. I Love You’ (Review – A)

Some will say I lack a spine. Some will say that I am whipped. Some would even venture to say that I am gay or not a man. I will say in the face of all of this, order that I really love my wife and I do watch these chick flicks for her, because […]

Reivew of Canon Powershot SX100 IS

Tuesday, 2007 December 11Monday, 2019 November 18 James O'Neill1585Leave a Comment on Reivew of Canon Powershot SX100 IS

Basic Review We bought a Canon Powershot SX100 IS prior to our trip to Cancun along with some Energizer rechargeable batteries and a 2 GB memory card. We used this camera extensively through the trip and it performed well for us. I had it set to take pictures at 1600×1200 resolution and I did not […]

Movie Catch-up

Wednesday, 2006 December 13Friday, 2018 July 20 James O'Neill1777Leave a Comment on Movie Catch-up

I have seen a few movies lately and I am going to catch you up on my thoughts of them. The Departed The Departed was tense, bloody, and fun. This a guy movie with enough violence to whet your testosterone laden palette, a great plot and script. The acting was excellent and I really loved […]

Rent Fallout

Saturday, 2005 November 26Friday, 2018 July 20 James O'Neill2259Leave a Comment on Rent Fallout

Rent was playing locally and my wife and I went to see it. I was soo excited… giddy even. Some of the small scenes like the answering machines were spoken instead of sung and there were a few scenes like that, but it worked well. Scenes were added to songs to help give context to […]
