Since an early age, I have been fascinated by movies. I remember my mother taking me to see Jaws in 1975 and feeling terrified.  My knee hit hard into the seats as the shark attacked, and I did not want to swim at the beach anymore (cliché, I know). But from that moment, I was hooked. To escape for a few hours and go on a whimsical, fantastic voyage. To be so intensely transfixed by a movie that you forget who is around you.  To shout at the characters on screen as if they can hear you. Your heart is pounding because of the actions as if they were happening to you.

I was then and now am just your average moviegoer. I just wanted to escape for a couple of hours and become captivated by film.  What about a review for that person? Being around the film industry from the exhibition side for many years, I got to talk to many people, from customers to employees. There is truly a movie for everyone. However, when it comes to the opinions of others who offer expert assessments, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."  People do not necessarily need an expert's opinion; the layman's point of view often works best.  So I wanted to write reviews on common themes, reviews for an average movie Moe like me.
