The Unborn trailer

The Unborn trailer

David Goyer’s new movie, The Unborn has gotten its first trailer that you can check out below. In all due honesty, this looks like something I may skip. Not that it looks bad at all, its freaky as s%*t to be honest. This is the type of movie, at least for me, that would stick [...]

Nights In Rodanthe Movie Review

Nights In Rodanthe Movie Review

I must admit that by the end of the second act of Nights In Rodanthe, the sappy romantic inside of me was almost won over by the film.  Almost. But about a minute into the third act, the professional film critic in me took over, immediately recognizing the film’s overly sappy final 20 minutes as [...]

Appaloosa Movie Review

Appaloosa Movie Review

It seems the genre of the Western is slowly being brought back to life.  Last year saw the release of the remake of 3:10 to Yuma, and now we have Appaloosa, another great addition to the ranks of those horse-ridin’ and gun-slingin’ movie heroes.  “Yuma” had two great stars headlining it, and the same goes [...]

Flash of Genius Movie Review

Flash of Genius Movie Review

I remember reading once, maybe in a textbook, about American ingenuity. I’m pretty sure American-made school textbooks are always going to be pumped full of nationalism. I guess it was a romanticist idea that a guy would come home after work, put his kids to bed, and invent for America in his basement.
Dr. Robert Kearns [...]

Religulous Movie Review

Religulous Movie Review

Religulous?  For starters, it rhymes with incredulous.  As in “Bill Maher can’t help being incredulous in the face of anything he deems supernatural,” or “Bill Maher is incredulous that anyone could think differently than he does” – you get the idea.  On the surface, the 100 plus minute mockumentary is a humorous exposé of the [...]

Blindness Movie Review

Blindness Movie Review

Adapted from the José Saramago novel and directed by Fernando Meirelles, Blindness,  depicts the events of a sudden epidemic of blindness that sweeps across an unnamed city. Mark Ruffalo, Julianne Moore and Danny Glover star in this film adaptation.  While one would think everything would go black, it actually goes white. The White Sickness as [...]

Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist

Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist

If you like slice-of-life teen movies, you’ll enjoy Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist. While not breaking any new ground, it delivers solid performances with a few chuckles, a few ‘eww gross’ moments, and your typical boy/girl love story. It also has a backdrop of a boy/boy relationship that was done very well – [...]

Iron Man DVD Review

Iron Man DVD Review

2008 may very well be remembered as “the year of the superhero”.  This is the year that gave us the immaculate “The Dark Knight”, the crowd-pleasing “Incredible Hulk” (although it did everything BUT please me), and of course the surprisingly strong “Iron Man” starring Robert Downey Jr.  The latter has just been released on DVD [...]

Quantum of Solace music video hurts my ears

Quantum of Solace music video hurts my ears

Is it me or is this song absolutely horrible? Jack and Alecia sound like cats clawing at each other. I believe I heard a few words in between the shouting match. The beat itself I like but the vocals I could do without. Check out the song below for the upcoming Bond film, Quantum of [...]
