Perry Ready to Blige

Grammy award winner Mary J. Blige is ready to slide her way onto the big screen, hopping on board with Tyler Perry’s latest play-turned-film creation, I Can Do Bad All By Myself.

Philip’s Knowing Movie Review

Philip’s Knowing Movie Review

Oh, Mr. Alex Proyas, you’re making it tough to defend you as a good director. The Crow was a great little flick, Dark City (especially the director’s cut) is a pure masterpiece, and I, Robot, at the end of the day, was fun. Now comes Knowing, a film that tricks you and no, I don’t [...]

Philip’s I Love You, Man Movie Review

Philip’s I Love You, Man Movie Review

Judd Apatow is by all accounts the new Kevin Smith. For a time in the nineties, Smith had a stranglehold on the comedy world with Clerks, Chasing Amy and (to a lesser degree) Mallrats. His films may not have been high art, but it seemed like most comedies around that time tried to emulate Smith’s [...]

Duplicity Movie Review

Duplicity Movie Review

Duplicity, if anything, is fun and for the most part knows it. In fact, the best comparison that can be made is to the show “Burn Notice”. Both are hip, sleek, sexy, and entertaining thanks to solid talent and some solid writing. Unlike USA’s television show though, Duplicity tries too hard to be complicated. What [...]

Plus1’s I Love You, Man Movie Review

Plus1’s I Love You, Man Movie Review

Paul Rudd and Jason Segel are slowly becoming leading men on the big screen. Each has come out of the background as the second fiddle and found a niche in the “every guy” leading man. Last year we saw Jason Segel break out in the very funny Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Paul Rudd break out [...]

Knowing Movie Review

Knowing Movie Review

Short of it: Something Proyas has done has struck a chord and changed the action genre for the better. There are ups and downs, along with some extraordinary questions asked throughout, equaling a very solid film.
I must admit that, going into this movie, I was hoping for something different from Alex Proyas, the famed director [...]

I Love You, Man Review

I Love You, Man Review

Normally, watching a wacky actor vomit into someone’s face would make me roll my eyes and brace for another lame, predictable farce. But when it happens in I Love You, Man, a new comedy starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel, it sort of works.
Of course, the story is still predictable. Peter Klaven (Rudd) is a [...]

Sony Pictures has debuted the first full trailer for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, their newest animated movie. I must admit I read this book to my three year old almost daily. She absolutely loves it, as do I.
Columbia Pictures’ and Sony Pictures Animation’s Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs will be the most [...]
