Must See

Mr. Grubbs and I had our date night on Thursday as planned, however we passed on Valkyrie and went with Will Smith's new one 7 Pounds. It was amazing. We didn't really know what to expect since the trailers are pretty vague, but it didn't disappoint. Smith is an amazingly emotional actor so you can feel what he feels when you watch him. I don't want to give any of the plot away but if you like movies like Crash, that make you think, then you will definitely like this one. Check out the trailer below.

P.S. I still don't know why is it titled 7 Pounds...

Must See

Going on the recommendations of several friends, Mr. Grubbs and I have started watching Showtime's original series Dexter. We are almost done with the first season and we were instantly hooked. The show follows Dexter, a forensic detective in Miami who specializes in blood spatters. The hitch is that he himself is a serial killer. But don't hate him, he only kills bad people. He first has to make sure that the person is indeed evil, then he stalks them, kills them, and finishes with a burial- often in pieces- at sea. It is very dark, but I actually feel for the crazy guy. Definitely Netflix worthy- only because we don't have Showtime.
