I currently live in Redlands, CA.  Born and raised in southern California.  Writing has become one of my passions, along with movies.  Currently, I am working on my first novel, geared for young adults.  I graduated from California State University, San Bernardino in 2008 with a B.A. in Human Development, Child Development.  I am an advocate for children and animals.  Becoming a vegetarian was one of the most important decisions I have ever made, doing it not for health reasons but instead for moral and ethical reasons.

Movies, what can I say, I love them. It doesn't matter the genre, I will sit down and watch all the movies as they come out and yes, I have an opinion. You can of course read the critics reviews, but for me, why not watch and see for yourself?  Personally, I would love to become a full time movie critic, but I'd rather watch and review them out of enjoyment.  Movie critics have become too "critical" and have become slightly uptight in their opinions, analyzing every little scene, trying to find what may be construed negatively.  My blog is for the average person who needs help on choosing between two films or on deciding what might be a good Friday night movie to enjoy.  I hope you find what you are looking for here.  Enjoy ;)
