If I have learned anything from all the years of loving superheroes, I know this: it is pretty stupid to even consider emulating your favorite caped crusader. Well, good thing there are certain individuals who ignore their brain’s hazard signs, because it sure makes for a fun and highly entertaining movie. In Kick-Ass (sorry mom), […]
Read more "Now Playing Review – Kick-Ass"If Date Night were a blind date between you and another person (as opposed to what, I don’t know) then I would say that the date is going pretty well. Sure there are times when some traits are revealed that you aren’t really sure if you want to stick around for, and sometimes they make […]
Read more "Now Playing Review – Date Night"The Losers is a fun, funny, throwback action film that never lets up and features great work by the solid ensemble cast that is obviously having a blast and brings us in on all the fun. The Losers is a band of CIA operatives that get hung out to dry on a black op gone […]
Read more "Review: The Losers"Kick-Ass is a lot of fun and does a nice job at poking fun at the comic book conventions but I can’t help but wonder if this film would have been better off being called Hit Girl. Kick-Ass is a wannabe super-hero that doesn’t really have any super powers; he is more of a really […]
Read more "Review: Kick-Ass"This new version of Death at a Funeral changes little from its British forbearer while still delivering the big laughs and hitting all the big notes it just drags a bit at times and rarely finds a consistent stride.

Read more "Review: Death at a Funeral"Date Night works by pairing two comedy greats together, letting them do what they do best, fills the supporting cast with some great actors, and doesn’t drag at all over its crisp runtime. The premise is easy to grasp by simply watching a trailer or TV spot, a suburban couple, the Fosters, goes into the […]
Read more "Review: Date Night"Floria Sigismondi’s The Runaways is a dark, messed up, and insane dive into the depravity and pitfalls of fame destruction of age film that yields three very good performances from, Michael Shannon, Kristen Stewart, and Dakota Fanning. Before the sex, drugs, and rock n’ roll the members of The Runaways were just young girls that […]
Read more "Review: The Runaways"The Time Traveler’s Wife may be about a man who uncontrollably jumps around within a certain span of time, but at its basic level it is a love story. A love story that unfortunately takes a rocky start with its depiction on screen in concern to dialog and pacing, but eventually it finds itself and […]
Read more "Rental Review – The Time Traveler’s Wife"Clash of the Titans starts with a narration explaining how the stories of the Greek gods have been written in the stars for all to see. Well, as pretty as those twinkling night-lights are they don’t really do justice to the action sequences of the myths, which is where this film steps in. Like with […]
Read more "Now Playing Review – Clash of the Titans"The Hurt Locker may be a beautifully shot film, but it is far from the perfection I was expecting after all the hype it has been drenched in, especially post Oscars. To sum it up, I think the best way to describe the movie is to compare it to the subject matter of the film, […]
