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.

What's Your Number?


Haven't had a chance to review a romantic comedy in a while and finally one did happen to pop up for viewing.  "What's Your Number?" is a rom com starring Anna Faris and Chirs Evans.  Faris plays Ally Darling, an unlucky in love gal. One who is consistently trying to change and alter herself to fit the needs and desires of the opposite sex.  Living across from her is her gigolo of a neighbor Colin Shea played by Chris Evans (a.k.a. Captain America, just had to throw that in there). Both are witnesses to each other's relationship ups and downs; and when Ally comes across an article discussing the average of the number of men that women have slept with is 10.5, she feels a little disheartened because her number is 20.


Instead of going for the next guy in hopes of finding true love she decides to try and rekindle some sort of romance with the previous twenty.  Discovering how difficult it is to locate some of these guys, she enlists the help of her neighbor.  Soon Ally finds herself on a path of loser after loser.  All of the potential suitors of her dating past are not promising whatsoever.  She is still holding out hopes for her high school boyfriend, who was "the one" that got away.  Is he really the one for her, or could love truly be just across the hall?


Cute and funny, but it is not something that you need to set the DVR for.  


I give it a 6 out of 10.


Next up is "Blue Crush 2."
