Two actors, two faces and a two sided story. I smell an Oscar nod for Gosling…I see audience rejection of the film.
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 [...]
“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 [...]
The good news about 2009 was that it wasn’t as horrendous as some previous years.
For the first time which in this reporter’s opinion seems to be a long while is a tie for first over this past 4th of July weekend. Dreamworks’ Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs ties up with the robot-clad Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen both coming in with 42.5 million each. The third installment of [...]
The Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock romantic comedy (I don’t care what you say about the genre Sandra) The Proposal topples over its competition during its opening weekend marking its territory in first place.

Why shouldn’t it? It’s directed by Harold “Egon” Ramis who’s done some decent comedy directing and is [...]
The Category is Summer Movies Answer: “Year One” The Question: Name the movie that is written and directed by Harold Ramis (of “Ghostbusters” and “Stripes” fame), co-produced by Judd Apatow (of “40 Year-old Virgin” and “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” fame), and stars Jack Black, Michael Cera, Oliver Platt, David Cross, and Hank Azaria. With talent such [...]
Need to get yourself a fix of the painfully awkwardly sweet and charming Michael Cera, or the loud and loveable Jack Black? Well your in luck, because these two guys are running out in about during the dawn of time in director and writer Harold Ramis’ latest adventure-comedy romp, Year One. When a couple of [...]
Well we decided to chunk these articles up into two portions so your eyes don’t hurt after reading through all of my recaps. I hope you are all still here with us. Make sure to check out the first one if you arrived here by some twist of internet fate! We will start back on [...]
