Does exactly what it says on the.... Title
This is an easy 23min watch. It's funny and entertaining and it just gets better. Love all the characters for their flaws rather than in spite of them. After the first season finished, I wasn't sure where they would take it, but never disappointed to have it back on my screen. It's light-hearted, easy watching and entertaining and doesn't claim to be anything else. If you expect to much from it, I doubt you'll enjoy it. Take it for what it is, a quick fix of laughter to brighten your day. Highly recommended for filling the time between getting home from work and starting dinner. Enjoy!

Spiders, so many spiders.
Contains spoilers, click to show
If your afarid of spiders dont watch this film. If you want to kill spiders that you should watch this film.
After a nature photographer dies on assignment in Venezuela, a poisonous spider hitches a ride in his coffin to his hometown in rural California, where arachnophobe Dr. Ross Jennings has just moved in with his wife, Molly, and young son. As town residents start turning up dead, Jennings begins to suspect spiders, and must face his fears as he and no-nonsense exterminator Delbert McClintock fight to stop a deadly infestation.
Both jeff daniels and john goodman are great in this film. This film is very underrated and i think more people should see it.

Excellent
Wasn't sure what to expect from this one but it turned out to be REALLY good. I won't give too much away but if you're into any kind of movies that have people with special abilities you'll enjoy this story. Think "Firestarter" on steroids.The acting was well done and the cinematography and effects were too. The story itself, while a little bit slow paced at first gradually grows more intense and powerful. The little girl was excellent in her role. By the end I was on the edge of my seat(even though it was a little predictable). And, although it kind of left it open for a sequel, I'm not holding that against Hollywood in this one, cause Id watch it. REALLY worth a watch.

I really loved this movie. It is the perfect coming-of-age romantic comedy. The cast was great - Jane Lynch, Alexa PenaVega, Evan Peters, Sean Faris, Steve Carell. It was a great cast. It didn't feel like the girls were trying too hard or the boys, for that matter. I think that the culture in adolescents and teens has changed so much since 2004, with social media, iPhones, and the pressure that feels way heavier than it was then. I think this is the movie to watch when you just want to watch kids being kids if that makes sense.
Overall, I really liked this film. I definitely think I'll be coming back to it and I definitely recommend it.

A proper horrible horror film
So my kids are now getting to the age where I was when I really started to get into horror films and my eldest wanted to see something properly good. She has watched the It's, and Grudge's and Saw's but wanted something that she would properly remember.
I chose this as I have always loved it and she (and I) wasnt disappointed. It's the only film that she has watched so far that she says she'll never watch again as she found it "horrible and disgusting " but she really enjoyed it. Very tense and the acting from the whole cast is totally spot on.
Nearly 40 years old and still outstanding.
Watch it if you haven't already

Great Western can watch over and over !!!
I had opportunity to watch this film recently. I am really impressed of how the storytelling, music, and cinematography all complement each other. I have enjoyed other classic westerns that star John Wayne. But Clint Eastwood does a great job as the central character in this western as does the supporting cast. The thing I love the most about the film is the fact is does not focus too much on dialogue. Instead the character's facial expressions combined with great music compositions tells the audience what is going on. If you enjoy movies I encourage you to check out this film you will not be disappointed.

what the actual heck
I don't understand the point of this film. I know that so many films don't have to have takeaways or anything you're supposed to learn and that's fine. But I genuinely don't understand why this film was made and why it freaks so many people out. On top of the plot just sucking in general, Melanie and Mitch are just weird. Mitch's mom gives me the same vibes Uncle Charlie and niece Charly had in Shadow of a Doubt. So many of his films give me incestuous vibes and this one was no different. I also hate his savior complex.
Thank god this was the last Hitchcock film I had to watch. I will probably never watch a Hitchcock film again. Good riddance.

Galaxy Quest, the second viewing, this is the voyage of my movie watching. I explored Amazon, to seek out new movies, and I boldly went where I've already been before. I remember watching this when it first came out. I didn't remember liking it all that much then to be honest, but glad I gave it another watch this morning because I really enjoyed it this time around. I think being older and having been to several conventions now I got the humor more than I did when I was younger. Definitely recommend giving Galaxy Quest another watch if it's been awhile for you too or if you've never seen it. To infinity and beyond, oh wait, wrong Tim Allen space captain movie.
