Major Payne

Major Payne is Family Video's Steal of the Day....$4.99

From FV....Damon Wayans plays a near-maniacal Army Major assigned to whip a detail of dysfunctional children into shape to win a war games competition.

Wayans used to be funny, extremely over the top, odd voice, some nice gags, probably watch now and realize not as funny as you remember, egh

Who is Wrigley?


Wrigley is my girlfriend and I's 6 month old golden doodle. He is a very happy boy and currenly weighs in at 45lbs. Ryann is hoping he gets bigger, I'm pretty content. He LOVES the water, as we call him our fishdog. His pictures, quite frankly, are much cuter than mine, so you will probably see him pop up on this blog quite frequently. I have a huge passion for movies, so this will hopefully connect me with others that share my passion and we can all have fun with this. You can follow this blog on twitter as well....www.twitter.com/tweetdvd. This will let you know when there are new updates and in general what I'm observing. Well..the White Sox game is about to start...so off I go.


Yes, I'm a White Sox fan with a dog named Wrigley. Ryann, my gf, is a HUGE Cubs fan....and Wrigley sounds better than Celly....so...Wrigley it is. Can't win all the battles...so I let this one go. :)

He's Just Not That Into You

Large cast, romcom, lots of personal drama, a bit too clever, some laughs, nothing great, but an enjoyable date movie.

What we are all about...

Well…what is Wrigley’s review all about…..that’s a good question. What I hope and plan to do with this blog is to offer reviews of dvd’s. In this tough economy we don’t have to stop watching the movies we love, we just have to use different methods. With big screen tvs and surround sound speakers, we can bring the movies home with us. So what is the catch…what makes this blog different? I will give reviews in 140 characters or less! Sound familiar….yep…a movie review in a tweet format…hence the name tweetdvd….So….lets get started….
