Blog #1 Movie Time!


If you’re looking for me on a Friday, I’m probably at the movies. Sure I should be working on homework or studying for a test, but there something relaxing about going to a movie and forgetting about everything else, immersing yourself in a great story for a couple of hours.

That being said, not every movie is a winner and on some occasions I’ve found myself wishing I was studying rather than watching a horrendously awful movie. That’s when I found Film Ape, a blog that provides no nonsense, straight to the point movie reviews.

Film Ape reviews cover many aspects of movies, general storyline, cinematography, acting, and directing. Film Ape relies heavily on text, but often includes a picture of the movie at the beginning of a post and a trailer for the movie at the end. Film Ape ends each movie review by giving a grading of either, a banana peel, good banana, or gold banana, as seen below War horse snagged a gold banana. 


Film Ape goes by the same moniker as the website, there is no personal information shared and that doesn’t really affect me as the reader, though if I had to guess, based upon a general lack of romance movie reviews, Film Ape is probably a guy.

  1. Haha, Film Ape sounds like he is probably a guy for sure. I have not heard of this site before and I get most of my information off of IMDB or Wikipedia. I'm going to check it out to see what he is all about. Does he give spoilers in his reviews? I don't mind if he does, as long as he warns me whenever there is a *spoiler alert*.

  2. This sounds like an awesome site and one that I could probably have used more times than not. I personally hated war horse and couldn't get in to it. Does the person who writes go off his personal opinion or does he think about other people's interests?
