22639Last Movie You WatchedPaul Blart: Mall Cop 2<br><br>Funny and thrilling. There's just a couple of problems: <br><br>1: It didn't have that Die Hard feel the other one had. 2: Why the heck did this take place in a hotel instead of a mall?!<br><br>3 stars.<br><br><br>Mr MagicAug 02, 2015View

226362015 Summertime thread.Where I lived a lot of people would send their kids to summer school for "baby sitting". The kid didn't really need to go. But if the parents knew they were somewhere for a few hours a day and got a free lunch they would send them. <br>pikachuloverAug 02, 2015View

22629Last Movie You WatchedLock Up (1989)<div><br></div><div>9/10 Really great prison movie. I hated the dirtbag warden(Donald Sutherland), the guards(except for the two good ones played by&nbsp;John Amos and&nbsp;William Allen Young) and the warden's convict lackeys. And it's so good when&nbsp;Sylvester Stallone gets his revenge on them and makes the warden admit to everything. Great music score by bill conti. And i just miss movies like this. I don't get the same feeling from most newer movies that i get from stuff like this and from this time.</div>Jrs1991Aug 02, 2015View
