Keefer Madness Presents: Top 5 Shark Movies Besides Jaws

1. Deep Blue Sea (1999)
Spoiler alert: the Samuel L. Jackson death might be the biggest cinematic surprise of all-time. 

2. Open Water (2003)
Real good movie about a couple that is scuba diving and gets stranded out in the ocean.  It's scary as hell because it's realistic.

3. Raging Sharks (2005)
Alien space crafts drop red crystals in the water that the sharks eat, it makes them go nuts.

4. Sharknado (2013)
SyFy classic.  Anytime you chainsaw out of a shark you're doing something right.

5. Shark! (1969)
Burt Reynolds was in this forgotten gem.  They used real sharks making this movie and a stuntman was attacked and killed.  Crazy.

New Orleans Pelicans Uniforms

The New Orleans Pelicans released their new uniforms yesterday.  I'm already partial to the name as my high school was also the Pelicans, so I'm as pro-Pelicans as it gets.  Plus it allows Charlotte to go back to the Hornets in a few years so it's win-win.

The logo came out awhile back and it was pretty solid.  Jerseys are ok, not awful.  Check out the whole kit and caboodle below...

Rich Reviews: The Wolverine

The Wolverine is a solid comic book movie. It's not Dark Knight, Iron Man, or even X-men, but it's also not a Spider-Man 3 or Ghost Rider. Hugh Jackson is back for the 5th time in this role (I guess 6th if you count his cameo in X-Men: First Class). He's good. The story and action is far better in this one compared to the last stand alone Wolverine movie (X-Men Origins: Wolverine).

This is more in the vain of a Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America, Thor... where you isolate on just the one super hero, with the villain not being a major comic character (like a Joker or Green Goblin). The Wolverine still holds up, solid action throughout and actually some continuity to the previous X-Men films.

It's over 2 hours long but doesn't feel like that, and for the first time you get the impression that Wolverine, the character, can carry a movie. He's always been "part of the X-Men' but clearly he is just as popular and intriguing as any other super hero.

I'll give it a 7.5/10.  (But I'm a sucker for comic book movies.)
