Regardless of my many drunken friends incessantly urging me to see this movie "The Human Centipede", the name alone always compelled me to stay away. However, when amongst the same mindset as my friends, and in an environment where there were several other first time watchers, I was suckered into it. Suffice to say, it was a terrible movie, as the name implied. Absolutely grotesque and awful in the worst imaginable ways. Disgusting and revolting are understatements for this travesty of a film. Why I stayed for the entire thing? Your guess is as good as mine. I do not recommend this movie unless you want to fully disturb your girlfriend to the point where she questions your taste in cinema so much that she doubts the relationship you have, or something equally terrible. This is an atrocity, just like the name implies. Don't watch it, I did and it was a mistake.

I have always been a fan of gangster flicks, however I have almost never been a fan of TV series'. That is, until I came across this gem. The Sopranos easily took the cake for the best TV series I have ever seen and probably ever will see (with the close contender being The Wire). I have never been so overjoyed to watch a seemingly overweight man trudge through the many perils of bi-family life while maintaining a harsh demeanor and cruel drive for success. The only bad part of this show is the end. Not the end, but the fact that it did end. I only wish there was more of it to watch. This show is an excellent Mafia portrayal and one of the best I have ever seen. The Sopranos set the TV show bar so high for me that I do not think that any show will ever surpass how I feel about the Sopranos. I do not recommend this show to my friends, I demand they watch it! This is TV series enlightenment.

This movie, Schindler's List, is hands-down without a doubt one of the greatest films I have ever had the pleasure of viewing. Regardless of how much praise I include in my review, I should still think it deserves more. Few movies are actually able to pull tears out of my stubborn eyes, and the two that come right to mind are this one, and It's a Wonderful Life. Schindler's List is a grim portrayal of events in the Holocaust, while at the same time actually bringing light to some of the humanity still there. I was embarrassed when I actually started clapping in that classroom where I first watched this movie. I'd recommend it to anybody and it remains in my top selection of movies. Outstanding.
