Yochanan reviewed the Asian Art museum exhibit as good and worth the price of admission & reviewed the new Percy Jackson film as awesome and worth seeing

Ric reviewed 'World's End' as very good & the soundtrack rocked [he'd bought it already] & thought the movie was worth full price, Adrienne followed and say it was worth matinee & Mo liked the character growth but thought it was a little paced, but a helluva lot of fun; then Ric reviewed the Newsroom as an enjoyable TV show

Mo reviewed the UK season finale of 'Being Human' as ambiguous and worth watching

JC reviewed 'Kickass 2' as they'll go see it again - worth full price & reviewed 'True Blood' as full of cliff-hangers & recommended
