Limacher Low Down: I saw the previews for Cedar Rapids and thought it would be the quirky, independent comedy that I tend to really enjoy; I wasn’t let down by this at all! Though it may seem from the print ads and commercials that this is Ed Helms next step into the leading man role, it was John C. Reilly who provided most of the comedy and once again shows how funny he is. I … [Read more...] about Cedar Rapids
Drive Angry 3D!
Limacher Low Down: Drive Angry 3D is a pull no punches, thrill ride that apparently was SHOT in 3D!

Barney’s Version
Limacher Low Down: I gained GREAT interest about seeing this movie after Paul Giamatti won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in Comedy or Musical. I must say there were some humorous lines and moments in the movie, but this was far from a Comedy. . . or Musical for that matter. The movie does a great job at taking the look of a unique man and telling his story through his eyes … [Read more...] about Barney’s Version
