Disappointed
27 November 2013
When I saw another James Franco - Danny Mcbride collaboration was in store I almost wet the bet with excitement! The problem is, when I watch a movie I expect to be entertained. This movie didn't get close to entertaining me so that's where the low rating comes from. Sorry, but this movie was slow, boring, and borderline irritating. If you want an exciting movie featuring Franco and Mcbride check out Pineapple Express. S***, if we're lucky we'll get a Pineapple Express 2. Kind of like they teased us with in This Is The End. I will forever low James Franco. And I will forever love Danny Mcbride. But this movie just didn't get it done for me.

The Violent Movie Showdown
12 April 2013
Movies can invoke a vast array of emotions within a person. Anger, rage, love, joy, laughter, inspiration. When it comes to violence, we can most often agree that it is not the answer or the solution. But, when it comes to movies, violence is often times there with a purpose or for a reason; and while I myself don't agree with violence in the real world I can admit that in the realm of movies it seems to speak with purpose as the director's truest intentions.

Now, I have worked at multiple movie stores and watched well over a thousand movies, and when it comes to violent movies I have personally found a top two that battle it out for the top two violent movies ever made: Braveheart and Django Unchained Now, be a good lad/lass, rent or download these two movies, and draw your own personal opinion on the best of the top two violent movies these eyes have ever seen Sincerely, Jonathan Miles Berkland

Eastbound & Down (2009–2013)
10/10
Best series on the air?
12 April 2013
When I think of the absolute best shows ever put on air, I think of names like:

The X Files The Big Bang Theory Californication Eastbound & Down

(Yes David d. - we know - you get cast in great roles and pull it off damn well)

If you don't want to get hooked on following a show, look elsewhere, cuz this is a great f****** show - and this is coming from a guy who writes comedy for funny or die - so yes, I have superb tastes already! Now go pop some popcorn, write "Anchorman 2" on your list of upcoming movies to keep an eye open for, and grab season 1 on this fine piece of programing and EnjoI

Top 100 All-Time
24 August 2012
I've worked at blockbuster. I've worked a Hollywood video. I've seen thousands of movies.

This breaks the top 100 all time for me.

Apparently my review wasn't long enough.....hm.....

The acting was great, the main character was zany, the chemistry and relationship of the two (evan rachel wood and michael douglass) was sensational throughout, and the movie just felt.....i don't know....unconventional. Something new, something fresh, something that I hadn't been seen done before - not like this.

I wonder if Michael Douglass hit that......

Better than its rating
1 July 2012
I went to rent this from DirecTV.com and its overall score was 2/5 stars. I almost didn't rent it because of the poor review, and then remembered how the Denzel Washington starring John Q fared so poorly at its initial release in terms of how it was reviewed by critics and how it ended up being a tremendously inspiring movie.

We went ahead and rented "WRATH" and within 20 minutes we all agreed it was already faring better than a 2/5 type of movie.

The enemies were visually perfection-like, the action was continuous, and there were some "spoilers" i don't want to name but the climax has some team-ups that just make the movie epic and memorable.

If you liked "CLASH" I think "WRATH" can pass your expectations
