    Default Need Movie Reviews

    Okay, dh and I have decided to treat ourselves to renting a movie from FIOS tonight. I'm in the mood for something scary or action filled, so here's what we've narrowed it down to:

    Shutter
    The Orphanage
    Vantage Point
    Untraceable
    One Missed Call

    Anyone see any of these or have any input? We watched the previews and they all look good!

    LOL
    I haven't seen any of those. They are probably good and scarey though since I avoid anything that looks like a slasher movie.

    Enjoy the movie night. We have a Family Video store near us and their older movies are 2/$1 and their almost new movies are $1 for 5 nights. We end up renting a lot of older movies since I will give almost anything a chance if it is only 50 cents.

    We saw Vantage Point in the theater not too long ago (a rare night out for us). I thought it was a great movie. If you are in the mood for action, this is it....

    The movie is nonstop! You know when the movie is getting ready to hit the climax and you are kinda sort of holding your breath, waiting....then you kind of sigh and just slowly come back down and then the movie's over?

    Not so with Vantage Point. I was sitting on the edge of my seat, holding my breath the. whole. time.

    We went with Untraceable. Excellent.

    I think next time we'll try Vantage Point. Jessica's description makes it sound like a movie I would love.
