We saw
Transformers: Dark of the Moon, and wow, that movie is seriously GOOD! I'm not sure why some people have negative comments or reviews on it. You won't find the meaning of life in this movie; it's nothing more than an amazingly good blow-sh*t-up action movie, with some popcorn on the side please!
I'm not really that big of a Transformers fan, but I do know an entertaining movie when I see one, and this surely hits the spot. Megan Fox isn't missed at all because if you see a movie with giant robots, tons of buildings blowing up, massive special effects, and a few jokes here and there, but all you do is watch the female lead, then you're in the wrong movie. Eye candy is nice — and don't get me wrong, she IS sizzling — but Optimus Prime getting his arm chopped off by Megatron is WAY better.

Showdown in Little Tokyo, featuring
Dolph Lundgren and
Brandon Lee, on Netflix, and we shouldn't have. I remember that back in the day, the movie was pretty good, but watching it 20 years later, it's amazingly bad. The one-liners are horrible, the acting is weak, and what the hell are they wearing!?
