WOW - i got on here to see how some of the movies were before i rented them and feel like im 16 in an AOL chatroom! Everyone is dissin everybody and talking smack — anyways, THE GRAND is horrible, dont waste your time cause i did just hoping it was gonna get better at some point but it never did. You would think with the great cast it would have been somewhat alright but i would have to say it is one of the worst movies ive ever sat through. Now on the other hand - CHAOS was an awesome movie! Great all the way through! Highly suggest it if you like action/suspense movies and or movies with a twist!

The first half of “The grand” is okay. Looks like a great cast, but the last half is not very good.
“Semi-Pro” was not Ferrels finest moment, though it had its parts.
“Air that I breathe” was typical collision-course-of -coincidents thing (based on a Japanese film, I believe- can any American screenwriter please come up with something original?)

Surprised, u mentioned about americanization of eastern movies. I am also foreign movie and also see the trend of American adaptations. But, I’ve seen it
U.S. movies being adapted into a foreign films. I believe it’s a cultural thing. I say leave it as is and we can learn from the views of that culture.

“The Air I Breathe” - very nice movie.. interesting unusual plot.. Rent it! :)
Stay away from: “Grizzly Park” and “Army Of The Dead”…
“Rambo” and “Black Ops” were ok.

Abe reply on June 8th, 2008 8:38 pm:
I thought the following were great:
Kite Runner- 4 out of 4 stars
I am legend- 3 out of 4 stars
Just rented Block ops, enjoy an occasional horror flic.
P.S. redbox is the next evolution in dvd rental without the hassles that you have to endure at times at a video store.

G, why are you even on this site if not for the codes? Are you not a cheap tight a__ yourself? Why not go to Blockbuster instead and pay 4+ for a rental you cheap bast___… There’s a better chance to get the new releases and much more of a selection.

erick the rookie wookie, did u not read what i said? Dee-D-deee…
Anyways, I like this site. Its cool. I do think it needs some kind of rating system for the films to go along with the comments though…
PS I only use a code if I get one with my lunch. ;) U Lemming.

erickwookie reply on June 2nd, 2008 5:44 pm:
I read what you said. You said we were cheap “looser”s and tight asses for using codes? How else can someone interpret that? I implied that you are also cheap since there is no other rental service cheaper unless you mail very quickly with Netflix. I guess everyone who uses a code is greedy? With all other expenses rising you have to take advantage of deals when they arise. I have no guilt using paper coupons in stores as well.

Yes. p hoyt. You are correct. Red Box is so far a good thing. I love it. But I am starting to hear that it cost more in dif locations. UH, OH… I knew it….
Erick the wookie. Im sorry. My intention was not to insult you all. OK. Mabybe it was. So what ever. Anyways… I was drinking at the time. :) OK? Do you need a hug? :)

First of all who you calling cheap? you sit on your computer making stupid comments on why we are so cheap and can’t go to blockbuster but the reality is you have no life because why are you posting comments on a redbox site when you don’t even shop there and you must not drive because the high cost of gas now and days give us no choice but to budget when we can.

Wow, hmmm… I was expecting another bashing. (?) Geeze, you must be a nice person. (rare) Well, I have used a couple codes. But for the trouble, its really not worth it. And for only $1 a flick? Come on, RedBox deserves more than that. They cant be making much money right now… I’m grateful for what they offer. ONLY GREEDY ******! want everything they can get out of life from everyone for free. Thats NOT me. :) PS I’m not religious either. :)

Stego reply on June 3rd, 2008 9:21 am:
G,
You apparently have nothing better to do. Only an idiot would call others names because they get codes from this site. Note: redbox is owned by McDonald’s and CoinStar — trust me, they aren’t losing money. The boxes are placed at sites that already have infrastructure, so there is no extra cost. And they only need employees to service and change out movies, etc. That is a lot cheaper than having 3-5 kids working at a blockbuster. Get a clue before you start talking like you know how much money the two companies make. Plus, you might be not have thought about the fact that some will not return the dvd in the specified max rental time and get charged approx $27. But what do I know. Your the genius.
Stego reply on June 3rd, 2008 9:25 am:
And since I actually payed attention in school, I’ll give you a clue:
“There is no such thing as a free lunch.”
And did you ever think that redbox has a reason for giving out codes?
Stego reply on June 3rd, 2008 9:26 am:
I left you a boo boo, did you catch it?
Stego reply on June 3rd, 2008 9:31 am:
Oh, and I forgot to mention. It’s a dollar a day. So technically If i keep it approx 4 days, I have paid the blockbuster price. And I am pretty sure If I don’t return the dvd I used the code for the very next day i will get charged. Man, you have to truly be an idiot not to see the big picture.
CJ reply on June 2nd, 2008 2:43 pm:
A penny saved is a penny earned, G. Redbox would not allow the codes if they were losing money. It’s a good marketing strategy, actually. While we get one movie free, a lot of us rent another movie or two. It’s especially great if you have kids. You can get them one for free, and get one for yourself. Win, win.

G reply on June 5th, 2008 5:07 am:
Dear Raggooooooooooo, I mean Stegoo. Hmm or what ever…
With all the replies it looks like you have more time then me. ;) Wow. Get a hobby. I already know about all that stuff you smuck. Its a good thing you’re so smart, or the world would be in trouble. :) You guys missed my point entirely. I don’t care enough to argue but now you see how I find this site fun? Dee D Deeee…. :)
PS School lunches were FREE if you grew up like I did. (Welfare Momma lunch ticket qualifying! YES! :)) You must have $$$$$$ but still so greedy you need to save a buck.
I grew up poor as it gets, homeless at 19 and no family. THEN, and TODAY, I STILL STAND TALL AND NEVER BEG OR MOOCH. I NEVER EXPECT ANYTHING FROM ANYONE FOR FREE. I ALWAYS PAY PEOPLE OWED. AND IVE GIVEN MY LAST DOLLAR to someone in need,when I needed it too, TOO MANY TIMES TO COUNT.
So all you hot shots tell me how ********! smart you are. Tell me about how you cant afford a buck to watch a movie you shouldn’t even be watching if you cant afford it in the first place. That buck could go for some vitamins for your kids so they arnt sick all the time. So I don’t have to hear about how sick you are because your kids got you sick. :) whew. OK. I’m done.
Geeeezze… People these days….

ill bet you fifty dollars that your punk ass left home of your own choice so you could galavant around.I’ll bet you disrespect your mom too for being on food stamps ,your just like alot of other ungrateful twenty somethings(lets hope your not in your thirties)no common sense ,and saving money when you can is sensible ,not greedy,I guess we all now know who will never have any real money until you learn how to stop being such a wasteful consumer type,ans stop spending when you dont have to.Stand tall as a mountain ,pride will get you no where but alone.sometimes its better to be kind than right.

we need codes unlike you we need the extra money in our accounts to put gas in our car to get back and forth to work.

My husband is very appreciative of his thrifty wife ,proud that i care enough to save some of our hard earned money for other things,resourceful enough to save alot of money with codes and coupons.i rent them all the time full price but momma didn’t raise no fool to just give away my money when things can be had for free,that’s pretty much a no -brainer,and my twelve year old daughter does that duh-dee-duh thing ,ill bet your wife secretly wishes you had enough sense to know a good thing when you see it! A FOOL and his money are soon parted.hahaha lol to you and yours.Lay off the hateraide.

G reply on June 10th, 2008 1:29 am:
Kcompa. You two owe me $50. My Mother died. Let me clear this up a little for you. Cuz, you don’t get it. Oh, by the way, it’s Dee Duh Deeee… not Duh Dee Duh. I have nothing against saving money. It is a smart thing to do. But have some pride. I would not want other children making fun of my kids about having some tight a s s cheap begging coupon clipping parents. My Mom was a looser yes but she never begged, used coupons or spent the day devouring every freebie she could find. Except for being on welfare of course ha-ha. Make your last name a name to be proud of.
The kind of people I’m drunk on “Hateraid” ( I like that :)) about are the people that always want everything for free. Even when they can afford things. I’m talking about moochers and free loaders. I talking about the guy who holds a cardboard sign that says “Will Work for Food” but wont if you offer work. I’m talking about the one or more pack a day smokers and the alcoholics. I’m talking about the people that show up late to work all the time, wont do overtime, call in sick every Friday or Monday and then cry about how broke they are.
The promo codes were meant to try the system out. Not to live off of them like roaches. Free loaders are a part of why America is poor. If nobody spends money, then nobody can make money. If you don’t have money then do something about it! Is that over your head?
If you are so broke then you have no business buying a TV or a DVD player and having cable. I bet you have high speed INTERNET too. If you work your but off everyday then you deserve the breaks. But if you are one of the above mentioned then you need to shut the f u c k up and get a job or show up on time everyday to the one you have and work hard. I don’t hate all you looses. I’m one too. Thats why I can talk smack! ;)
I bet you guys share one meal at Taco bell too, huh?
NOW THIS WAS ENTERTAINMENT! :)
Now let me get back to my cup O noodles…

P reply on June 10th, 2008 11:37 am:
So I’m on this website on my lunch break looking up codes to rent a movie(FOR FREEEE!)since I’m probably one of the most greedy human beings alive. I accidentally hit the scroll button and see legal retards posting their life stories on a blog for movie codes. I’ll admit that the poor use of grammer and talk of welfare stricken homes was quite amusing but perhaps Oprah or Jerry Springer would be a better audience for you to discuss your shortcomings in life…
erickwookie reply on June 10th, 2008 12:59 pm:
Did you spell grammer like that on purpose to be funny? Poor grammar, do tell…lol Jerry, jerry, jerry! Why don’t they ever release unrated unfiltered Jerry Springer shows? No bleeps and bars on the screen so you could see and hear what’s going on.

RAMBO
WOW. Who knew he still had it in him? He might be short but he’s a big man. A Man’s man. The first Rambo was the best, back then. But I think this is Sly’s BEST for these days. He has out done himself. I don’t think he can do a better one and should quit now while his rep is good.
Strong message for the God fearing and probably one of the most graphic carnage films for not being a Horror flick. This one is well worthy of being up there with Hamburger Hill, Platoon and the rest of the likes.
I say, well done! Must see!

Does the Code MEMORIAL work at the moment or was that only good for Memorial Day?

i liked I Am Legend. it was emotional, i have not read the book so i cannot compare.
i can say the movie had my attention the whole way. a good amount of violence, but i didn’t expect anything else from those virus infected people. Will Smith did good job. i cried during the sad parts.

I WATCHED IT 25 TIMES ALREADY LOL DON’T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES MORE I’LL WATCH IT THOUGH. I’M OBSESSED WITH IT. I LOVE IT, CAN’T WAIT TILL MY B/F TO COME BACK SO I CANT WATCH IT W/HIM AGAIN.

In regards to the comment about “I Am Legend,” when I first saw the movie I thought they were zombies. Then I read the book (which is quite different from the movie, written several decades ago) and they were vampires. Now the stuff about the attraction to blood makes a lot more sense.

Okay, to be honest one of the worst films I ever saw and rented by redbox is “10 items or less” what the heck was Morgan Freeman and Penelope Cruz thinking when they decide to make this film! Anyways this film isn’t even worth a dollar, but the choice is yours if you want to see a crapy film rent “10 items or less”

May 5 2008 @ 9:42 pm
Well one of the films that I rented in redbox a while back that I thought was by far one of the best movies I had ever seen was “TRADE” this movie has all the elements that makes it a great watch! The movie has a simple plot line to follow, but it keeps you constanly on the edge! This film is rated R! It is about the harsh truth of human trafficking, violence, and drugs! Wow, this film is a five star film!
