Excerpt: "...You’ve heard of Al Pacino, Chazz Palminteri, Dolphins quarterback Dan Marino, Tony Randall, John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, The Sopranos’ own Dominic Chianese, John Cusack and even funnyman Jackie Mason, right?

The History Channel Magazine - Melissa Minners reviews the popular history magazine.
Excerpt: "I’m a history buff. I’m absolutely fascinated by our world’s past and how it affects the way the world works today.

I was promised fascinating facts, stories and legends and The History Channel Magazine has come through with flying colors..."
Hachi: A Dog's Tale - Natasia Minners reviews the movie based on a true story about a dog's loyalty to his human.
Excerpt: "So, the other day my human comes home with a stack of videos. “Natasia,” she says, “I have a movie you’re going to love! It’s called Hachi and it’s about a cute doggie who loves his master!” A DOG?!! Why would I want to watch a movie about a dog?! And why would I want to watch a movie about any animal who is subservient to humans? Utterly absurd!

Without Evidence - Melissa Minners reviews the dramatic film based on a real life murder mystery.

Well, you know I just had to get my hands on it to check it out..."
Tyler Perry: Movies with Heart - Jon Minners reviews the movies that launched Tyler Perry into stardom.
Excerpt: "Apparently, my White Card was revoked last week. Yes, I told everyone I was going out with my buddies Katrina and Annia to see Madeas Family Reunion and everyone in the room laughed at me. Every one of them was white, obviously, and as a white man, I guess I was not allowed to watch that movie, but after Katrina lent me a copy of Tyler Perry’s first movie, A Diary of a Mad Black Woman, I was hooked into the series and I actually could not wait to see the latest film.
