Movie Review: The Ides Of March
Two actors, two faces and a two sided story. I smell an Oscar nod for Gosling…I see audience rejection of the film.
Movie Review — Restless
It’s October. A time when Ghoulies, Ghosties and Long-Legged Beasties roam the earth. But if you start seeing the ghost of a World War II Japanese kamikaze fighter pilot, you’re probably Enoch Brae, the central character of Restless. And that’s not a bad place to be. Enoch is an odd kid. If your name is Enoch [...]
Movie Review — Real Steel
“Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots” get their day on the big screen in Real Steel, a movie that transcends the one-joke premise and is instead a heartwarming, fist-pumping mechanized fairy tale of a father and son coming together amid some of the baddest technology you’ll ever wish was really available. Not to bad for a [...]
After scoring the best rating for ABC in 14 years, Castle has been renewed for a third season. The show, starring Nathan Fillion as the murder novel writer turned quasi-detective Richard Castle, preformed modestly when it was added to the lineup last spring. ABC even considered the program a bubble show before adding it to [...]
In a recent LA Times article, “Television Critic’s Notebook: Networks turn clock back to family hour” Mary Mcnamara discussed network television’s swing back towards family programming.

The chief of the four horsemen, the pale rider Death, finally galloped into town last night on Supernatural. You can be sure with the season winding down and the apocalypse on the way that Hell is surely following with him. While some other notable genre shows are taking their sweet time stirring up Armageddon, the [...]
The end is coming, and it’s drawing down on all of us with an unflinching finality. Of course, the ‘us’ I’m referring to are Lost fans and the ‘end’ is May 23rd, when the six year tour of Abram’s mysterious island finally draws to a close. With each passing week and fleeting episode, the window [...]
After a killer hiatus, filled with such fluff as — oh wait, were the Olympics real? — Chuck returns March 1st, and continues its upward trek exactly where it left off. This is a fantastic show with a great ensemble and writers who actually seem to have some ability to zoom in on specific character and [...]
Fox is pulling out all the stops for its new police action comedy Code 58 starring Bradley Whitford and Colin Hanks. A special preview of the show will air before ratings powerhouse American Idol, which is when the networks current hit Glee premiered last year.
“There are certain shows that will be sold on Apple for 99 cents,” Moonves said during the company’s earnings call on Friday.
