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 [...]
He’s battled the Joker, the Penguin, and The Riddler, but there’s lately been one elusive villain Bruce Wayne hasn’t been able to fight; piracy. Shortly afterThe Dark Knight, WB’s last installment of the Batman franchise, was released in 2008, the internet was swarming with hand-held cam versions of the movie. Now it looks like the long shadow [...]
There are movies out there that rely heavily on the weight and power of it’s leads. The director only needs to do a serviceable job while the actor (or actress) powers the screen with her talent. As much as I love To Kill A Mockingbird, it’s a prime example of a film being completely carried [...]
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 [...]
Have you seen Iron Man yet? If not what are you waiting for? Go out and see it this weekend. Prior to the May 2nd debut there was talk all over the Internet that Hillary Swank would have a cameo part in the movie along with the now known Samuel Jackson as Nick Fury scene. [...]
Well you wont get to be Tony Stark per se or even Robert Downey Jr but you will live like they would for a day. The guys over at MTV and VH1 are throwing a sweepstakes that includes: First class air transportation to Los Angeles, CA 3 nights stay at the Beverly Hills Hotel A [...]
MARVEL COMICS DOES IT AGAIN!!!…another comic book turned into a great motion picture and this year’s mega-blockbuster. Director John Favreau captured the essence that is the Iron Man comic book and brought it to life in a fun way that will have the whole family cheering. His choice of actors was superior as each person [...]
I was sitting in a theater awaiting a screening to start when I saw my first glimpse of “Tropic Thunder”. The trailer started up as any war movie would and then turned into a Ben Still marathon. Have I told you all how much I dislike Ben Stiller? The audience was laughing their heads off [...]
Ben Stiller‘s newest film Tropic Thunder has gotten a lost of press lately in part to Robert Downey Jr playing a black man. Yes you heard me correctly. The black guy in the photo above is RDjr! While a stunt like this is meant to bring about publicity, its not at all surprising from the [...]
