Zim's Max-Freeze Continuous Spray Review



You might recall me reviewing Zim's Max Freeze earlier this year. Well, now the same company has a Continuous Spray out to buy.

The spray formula can help give pain relief to your muscle and joints. It is greaseless and has a vanishing scent.

The ingredients include:

Organic Ilex
Aloe & Arnica
Vitamin E
Tea Tree Oil

Probably one of the biggest complaints of muscle & joint pain gels and creams is that even if you wash your hands after applying the gel/cream to your skin, it doesn't exactly get it off your hands. Now you don't ever have to worry about it again as you can just spray the Max-Freeze on your muscles and joint.

Review:

While TMNT fans are patiently waiting for the final episodes of the third season to air on Nickelodeon, they grab their hands on the newest DVD release, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Return To NYC!, which features seven action-packed episodes (Vision Quest, Return to New York, Serpent Hunt, The Pig and the Rhino, Battle for New York - Part 1, Battle for New York - Part 2, Casey Jones vs. the Underworld) from the current season. Special Features includes Mutation of a Scene for each episode.

Season Three started with the Turtles along with their human pals Casey Jones and April O'Neil, taking shelter at April's family farm as the Kraang and Shredder take over New York City. "Vision Quest" finds Leonardo leading the turtles into the forest, so they can be one with nature. They quickly receive a message from a spiritual manifestation of Splinter, which leads them on a journey to overcome their weaknesses.


The Turtles, April and Casey head back to New York City, which is overrun by Kraangdroids and Foot Clan, to search for Splinter. Thanks to amnesia, Splinter has lost his humanity and the turtles must somehow convince him to snap back to his normal self in "Return to New York."


Now reunited with Splinter, the turtles go in search of his daughter, Karai in "Serpent Hunt," whom is now a serpent mutant, but they must deal with a handful of Kraangdroids as well as two humans, Zeck and Sternko, who work for Shredder.

My Answer: 


   I've never been involved in a book club. If I every am, it would probably be best to meet at someone's home for the club as a restaurant would be too noisy and a library is a little too quite.

Echoes Of War centers on a Confederate veteran Wade (played by James Badge Dale) returning home to the post-Civil War Texas to visit his brother-in-law Seamus Riley (played by Ethan Embry), his niece Abigail (played by Maika Monroe) and nephew (played by Owen Teague), only to learn that the family is still grieving the death of his sister and that they are barely making it on selling animal pelts.

The neighboring Randolph McCluskey (played by William Forsythe) has had his own share of grief with the death of his son, which is drove his wife Doris (played by Beth Broderick) crazy. Plus, he lost most of his cattle during the war.

Blu-ray Review: Maggie


 

Maggie
Director: Henry Hobson
Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Abigail Breslin, Joely Richardson
Studio: LionsGate Home Entertainment
Release Date: July 7, 2015
Retail: $12.99
ASIN: B00XI057UM
Running Time: 95 minutes
Rating: PG-13
Buy Link: Amazon

Arriving on Blu-ray this coming Tuesday, July 7, 2015 is the post-apocalyptic drama film Maggie. Directed by Henry Hobson, the film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger (Terminator Genysis), Abigail Breslin (Zombieland) and Joely Richardson (Nip/Tuck). Special Features include: Director's Commentary, "Making Maggie" Featurette, Deleted Scenes, Cast/Crew Interviews and a Trailer Gallery.

In a role that is a complete opposite of his action-flicks, Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Wade, a father who retrieves his daughter Maggie (played by Abigail Breslin) from a hospital in the city. Maggie has been infected with the Necroambulist virus that slowly turns people into flesh-eating zombies. Against the doctor's orders, Wade takes Maggie back home to their farmhouse. Fearing they'll be infected too, he sends Maggie's step-siblings, Bobby and Molly (played by Aidan and Carsen Flowers) to live with their aunt while Maggie spends her last days at home with him and her stepmother Caroline (played by Joely Richardson).

Abigail Breslin ("Maggie") and Arnold Schwarzenegger ("Wade") star in Lionsgate Home Entertainment's MAGGIE.

While Maggie tries to live a normal life by reconnecting with her friends, the virus is slowly getting stronger and she knows eventually it'll take over her. Wade loves his daughter, but he doesn't want her to suffer. He has two choices - let her take the government cocktail, which is a painful death or take matters into his own hands and help end her suffering.
