Everyone’s a Critic: Reviews from FlixChatter Readers

I sheepishly admit that I didn't see ANY flick this long weekend. It's been a hectic weekend of getting-together with friends, as well as bidding farewell to a dear, dear friend who's moving to a different state. Needless to say, I had zero time to dash off to a theater or even to watch a …

Tintin film will be released late 2011 in 3D

DVD Pick: Maiden Heist

My friends and I saw this movie on Halloween night. Since nobody's keen on watching a horror flick, we stumbled upon this one as we're browsing the Redbox site.
