Big Movie Blog explores the big, big world of movies by looking at films in the theaters today and blowing the dust off classics - good and bad - from over the years.

We aren’t film students or cinema historians. We are just like you: people who like good…and sometimes not so good movies.

Our goals is to have fun. Let’s settle in, watch a few movies, enjoy some popcorn, and talk.
