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 [...]
There are certain films that can ultimately be forgiven of their faults provided they supply something else in lieu. The Crank films are a perfect example of that as is pretty much every slasher film ever made. Be it gratuitous action, some gross out comedy, or special effects one can easily forgive terrible writing and [...]
Stealing is wrong, and it’s a lesson that should be taught to one at a young age. With so many movie websites nowadays, most of us follow a code of ethics to link to the site with the source material. What we don’t do is take another sites content and claim it as our own. [...]
Happy times all right! Who doesn’t get fuzzy with the overly used up plot device of inevitable world destruction by some random natural disaster? If you don’t, then Ronald Emmerich did not hear you one bit thanks to the creation of his latest disaster piece (possibly in more ways than one) 2012. Starring the likes [...]
Year One wants it’s audience to believe it’s Agent Sands at the end of Once Upon A Time In Mexico. The film blindly fires it’s comedy at us, hoping things will hit us and evoke mountains of laughter. Why shouldn’t it? It’s directed by Harold “Egon” Ramis who’s done some decent comedy directing and is [...]
PHILIP BARRETT: Give Tony Scott credit, he’s improved over his career. He went from being his generation’s Michael Bay (see: Top Gun, Days of Thunder) to developing his own style and being a legitimately good filmmaker (see: Man on Fire, Enemy of the State.) One could say he learned a thing or two from brother [...]
Angels & Demons is like watching Juno. Like that overrated mess from 2007, Ron Howard’s latest film wants to be more than it really is. No one told it that at the end of the day it’s just Indiana Jones with some Bourne sprinkled in. The script tries to mask it’s many shortcomings in religious [...]

Here is a little tidbit about the movie itself. Ben (Will Smith) is an IRS agent who sets out on an extraordinary journey to make amends for [...]
