Fracas Noir || Susanne Waldau - te Brake I swear to tell the truth as I know it…

I can’t wait unti May 27th….the release date of Sex and the City II!! As a self-proclaimed SATC gal, this date is holy to me. In the meantime, to get a well needed fix of my fav serie, I am doing a re-run of the episodes and the last movie with Victoria.
Victoria is in fact [...]

Why is it that men can’t be relied upon to find a good movie? Reinout had already selected a film for us to see, and it was no idea to protest, so I went along with it….Lost City Raiders. It was one of the worst movies I’ve seen since… well a few months back when [...]

I was expecting an interesting show like CSI or Cold Case.  Instead I found myself watching a Steven Segal Movie – some Mercenary for Justice that scored 4.1 on IMDB. I should be grateful I know, it could [...]
