Baby on Board, a review by Rich

Baby on Board



Power couple Angela (Heather Graham) and Curtis (Jerry O'Connell) have a seemingly flawless marriage, but a surprise pregnancy could end up turning their carefully ordered world upside down in this riotous rollercoaster of a romantic comedy. Between their know-it-all best friends (John Corbett and Katie Finneran) and Angela's task-master boss (Lara Flynn Boyle), the perfect pair could end up imploding before the bundle of joy's even born.

Unoriginal, unfunny, unpleasant and unappetising.
Tired old predictable story, a cast that should have known better, and so poorly scripted it did not raise one laugh from me during the whole movie.
Avoid this, even if it soon finds its way into the bargain bins.

Transporter 3, a review by Rich

Transporter 3



The ultimate bag-man is back in Transporter 3! Jason Statham resumes his role as Frank Martin and he's still delivering for criminal masterminds. However, this time he's electronically tagged and his life depends on getting the package there on time!

This is a very disappointing film, it has fallen into the trap of churning out rubbish purely for commercial income and hoping the adrenaline will mask it's deficiencies. There are loads of amazing stunts and a multitude of action fighting scenes, but there is no depth, no storyline, suspense, plot, intrigue or acting. Co-star Natalya Rudakova is perhaps the most annoying person in the world, I had hoped she would be killed a lot sooner.
Totally unrealistic and implausible, give this a wide curve.

As I have just finished watching the third season of "The Vampire Diaries", I thought I would continue with another vampire series. This is a recent blind buy. I was rather bored with the first episode. Though it did show some promise.
