About: Thank you to Frank and staff at FranksReelReviews.com for all the great work! We watch a lot of movies. Way more than we like to admit. On this site, we'll provide you with an unbiased (OK....maybe sometimes we have an ulterior motive) critique of the movie along with some plot discussion, talent commentary and message forums chock full of comments, observations and trivial tidbits. You'll also notice that we have a unique method of rating movies as well. We have no studio affiliations, so we won't praise a movie if it sucked and we won't rip a movie just because everyone else liked it. Sure, we have our preferences and our biases, but we promise to keep an open mind and rate a film on its own merits.See Author's Posts (22)
