When I first heard about this film I must admit I didn't expect much. I mean how can you beat The Color Purple? But this movie was one of the best films of the year! A real eye opener to how slaves were treated during that time and the sympathizers that helped them. A dark part of our history that every history class should show their students.

American Horror Story: Asylum [4 Discs]
The second season of creator Ryan Murphy's American Horror Story takes place inside of a bleak mental institution called Briarcliff. Patients tend to disappear physically, emotionally, or both once inside this last stop for the criminally insane (and in many instances, criminally unlucky), for in addition to the sadistic ministrations of administrator Sister Jude and the threat of a serial killer known as "Bloody Face", lurks an otherworldly evil that may be the cruelest force of all.
I love the Captain America movies, but this movie beats them all. Great story and a great beginning to getting all the super heroes together. Can't wait for the second one to come out. Make sure to watch Marvel's Agents of Shield to tie in the stories in between the movies.
This was a great re-installment of Robocop. Same premise , new storyline. It was a refreshing new look at the franchise. New actors pulled it off with ease and the characters were more humanized and less cartoony compared to the original.

Noah [2 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] [2014]
While this movie is supposed to follow the Bible story of Noah, it is clear that it was greatly embellished with imagination and untruths. Although I wouldn't be showing this at Bible school for children to learn, it is an entertaining story in this form. If you can get by the fact that this story is fiction with resemblances of the true Bible story you can enjoy this movie.

47 Ronin [2 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] [2013]
I expected this movie to be a little better than it was. But don't think it wasn't good, it was. I just expected this movie to be better for Keanu Reeves as a comeback movie as he has been away from films for a little while. There was plenty of action and the CGI was decent.

Wolfenstein: The New Order - Xbox 360
Have you ever asked yourself what our world would be like if history had unfolded differently? Have you ever wondered what would happen if one link in the chain of events was reversed? What if, for example, the Nazis had won World War II? The answer is that the face of this planet would be forever changed, irrevocably damaged. The year is 1960 and the worst has happened. The Nazis turned the tide of World War II in their favor with a new, mysterious brand of advanced weaponry that, along with unrelenting force and intimidation, brought even the most powerful nations to their knees. Who among this conquered planet has the courage to stand up to the merciless regime? What man has the guts and the skills to save the world from the grip of this iron fist? You are B.J. Blazkowicz, American war hero, and you are the only man capable of rewriting history. Only you can save us all.Launch the most daring counter-offensive in history in Wolfenstein: The New Order, a game that puts you up against oversize Nazi robots, hulking Super Soldiers and elite shock troops in intense first-person combat. Break into hidden research facilities and heavily guarded weapons stashes to find out where the Nazi's advanced technology came from, and level the playing field by upgrading your own tools of destruction with what you find. From mountaintop car chases to underwater exploration, Wolfenstein: The New Order cultivates an unbelievably exhilarating adventure with high-octane action and an immersive game narrative, created by a group of seasoned developers at MachineGames and rendered in stunning detail with the id Tech 5 engine. So if you think you have the heart and the daring of a hero, go up against this terrifying Nazi regime and restore history to its rightful place.
Greatly anticipated this game as I have played all the Wolfenstein from its inception on day one for the PC. OK, here I go as no one else has reported about the very long installation. First off, I initially could not install this game for a few days as I did not have the required 8 GB on my hard drive. I have a Halo edition Xbox 360 with a 12 GB hard drive, half of which was full from the installation of Grand Theft Auto 5. Even after deleting some files there was still not enough room. So after a couple frustrating days more of wait, I had to purchase a 32 GB Flash drive from Radio Shack for $20. So what I saved in Rewards at Best Buy went into Flash memory. Good thing it offset the cost! So be prepared to have the required memory to play this game! I strongly feel that if these software companies want to require so much storage space they should include the flash drive. Either that or be able to run the game from the 4 cd's that come in the packaging much like LA Noire. No one should have to choose between or sacrifice saved games on the hard drive. My second issue with the game was the extremely long installation. From what I read on the NET installations took an average of 40 minutes! Wow! that is the longest time I ever would have had for a game. I don't know if it was because I was installing to a flash drive or not but my installation took an almost exact 2 hours! That is ridicules! I sat with bated breath watching the progress bar install the game as many posters on the net said it hung up and stopped at 48%. I was so glad when it surpassed that and kept going. So be prepared to set it and forget it for some time. Maybe loading to the hard drive if you have the space will be faster. Load times are tolerable of 30-40 seconds. The game itself is amazing and I have yet to scratch the surface. Enemies are smart and Challenging. New weapons are intuitive and amazing. Puzzles so far aren't terribly hard and entertaining. Graphics are superb despite the 360 getting close to the end of its life with the new game systems out. And the story-line is right where it should be in the saga. There is no multiplayer for online play which may turn some people away. It is and always has been a single player style game. I would highly recommend this game to any FPS game player as this is the genre at its finest. I feel it looks even better than Battlefield 4 or COD Ghosts. And they were great games too! This is a must have FPS to have in your game library!
