Reviews

ThiefHott Too much of everything
Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen
Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
