What kind of Blog is this?

I decided to combine two activities, getting in shape on the elliptical machine (hence the title of the blog) and watching movies on my tablet device. What a perfect world! I am a really big fan of the movies and love all genres. You will see discussions on Sci-Fi, Horror, Historical, Romance, Comedy, Drama, Classics, and so on. Watching a movie instantly makes the hour spent working out simply fly by! I have decided to watch movies that I am interested in and then discuss how I enjoyed the movie. Hard to really call it a review seeing that most of the movies have already been released nationally. I will rate each on a scale of 1 to 10 (ten being the best). Most of the movies that I discuss will be movies that appear on Cable TV. So if you were hesitant about watching a particular movie, you can utilize my commentary before you sit down and watch.

Quarantine 2: Terminal


The first version of this movie was a unique spin on the Zombie genre, with the residents of an apartment complex contracting a rabies like virus turning them into the creature that   dines on the flesh of the living. In part two, the backdrop moves from the apartment complex to the small plane and subsequent airplane terminal.  Jenny (Mercedes Mashon) is your heroine, a plucky flight attendant who is not living up to her daddy's expectations and becoming a pilot just like him.  She is working the red eye with her best buddy.  The number of passengers is limited because of the late flight, but includes a young kid, a young female war veteran, a European couple, an uptight couple, an elderly couple, a cute guy and the overweight pain in the rear.  Your typical flight, except they are unknowingly exposed to a virus that takes them over one at a time, slowly but surely.


Not as good as the first, but not a total time waster.


I give it a 5 out of 10.


Next up is "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps."
