David Fincher's "The Social Network" is a great film based on the creation of facebook by Mark Zuckerberg. Great screenplay by Aaron Sorkin and great soundtrack. Film includes memorable performances from Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, Rooney Mara, Armie Hammer, Justin Timberlake and Rashida Jones. Highly recommended!

Ugh! I was waiting for this game to be released for so long. I picked it up on day one. After an hour or two of gameplay, I realized that this game was a huge stinker! No matter whether you guess the person is lying or not seems to make almost no difference. Boring. There is nothing to do in this beautiful open-world. You cannot use your gun unless as part of a mission. You cannot interact with any characters.
What a waste!

Tim Burton's best film since "Ed Wood" shows the director at the top of his game. Beautiful photography combined with great characters and music make for a fantastic film. Johnny Depp, Helena Bonhm Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen are perfectly cast in this violent tale of revenge! Highly recommended!

"Trainspotting" is a dizzying, hypnotic masterpiece of cinema. Director Danny Boyle is able to captivate audiences while showing the characters doing despicable things. Incredible soundtrack and visually phenomenal. Next to "Sunshine", this is Boyle's best! Ewan McGregor is also amazing.

This set contains all thirteen episodes from the fourth season of AMC's Emmy-winning drama Breaking Bad, starring Bryan Cranston as a chemistry teacher turned meth dealer.
Season 4 is probably the best season yet. The writing, characters and twists make this one of the best shows ever created. I cannot praise this show enough. There is more going on in one episode than most films can muster in 2 hours.
Dying to find out the fate of Walter White!

One of my favorite television series! Writing, acting and characters are superb! William H. Macy is incredible as Frank Gallagher. Emmy Rossum is a goddess!
Love it!

SynopsisFor Max Payne, the tragedies that took his loved ones years ago are wounds that refuse to heal. No longer a cop, close to washed up and addicted to pain killers, Max takes a job in São Paulo, Brazil, protecting the family of wealthy real estate mogul Rodrigo Branco, in an effort to finally escape his troubled past. But as events spiral out of his control, Max Payne finds himself alone on the streets of an unfamiliar city, desperately searching for the truth and fighting for a way out. Featuring cutting-edge shooting mechanics for precision gunplay, advanced new Bullet Time and Shootdodge effects, full integration of Natural Motion's Euphoria Character Behavior system for lifelike movement and a dark and twisted story, Max Payne 3 is a seamless, highly detailed, cinematic experience from Rockstar Games. In addition to an expansive single-player campaign, Max Payne 3 will also be the first entry in the series to introduce a thorough and engrossing multiplayer experience.
