Movie Reviews

Welcome to the movie reviews! I’ll warn you, I don’t get to the theatre often, so it’s not like this is going to be very current. But hey, a lot of people I know don’t get to the theatre that often, so this’ll still be helpful! Let me explain my system. I like to eat licorice nibs when I go to the movies, so I use my patented Nib system. 1 nib means it sucks, 4 means it rocks! (And there are those rare, super-duper gems that warrant 5 nibs). So, let the reviewing begin!
