Welcome to The Movie Tree

Hello and welcome to The Movie Tree. Like most people, I am a big fan of movies. I, however, take movie watching to the extreme. In 2012 I watched 242 'new' movies (Yes, I track how many I watch). When I say new movies, I mean new to me. This number does not include the movies I watched for a second, or however many, time. You might be wondering how I was able to watch 242 'new' movies in 365 days. Well, I tend to watch movies in segments. I'll watch a little during lunch, a little more while working out, then finish it up during my early morning shift of feeding our baby boy. It's probably not the way the director intended me to watch it, but it allows me to watch more movies! I also have a wife that enjoys watching movies as well.

I am also big on rating movies. Usually I rate movies on sites such as IMBD and Film Affinity, but I will share those here as well. I rate movies based on a 1-10 scale ( you can see my translation of the scale on the Rating Tree). I'm not big on writing lengthy reviews, but I will from time to time. You will also see Top 10 lists, weekly recaps of the movies I watched, and my reactions to upcoming films and movie news. Feel free to agree or disagree with any post- I welcome the discussion. Enjoy!

Weekly Recap: July 7- July 13, 2013

A recap of the movies I watched for the first time this past week. 

Featured:

Identity Thief (2013)- 5/10

Melissa McCarthy steals Jason Bateman's identity- has to be funny right? Turns out, not as much as I expected. Sure, there were some funny moments (most were in the trailers), but not enough to put it over the top. It appears that McCarthy is funniest in smaller doses; still loved her in Bridesmaids.






The Rest:

2-headed Shark Attack (2012)- 2/10- A movie so bad I couldn't stop watching. You find a lot of those on SyFy. 


Movies watched this week: 2
Movies watched in 2013: 102
