Review of No Room for Rockstars – The Vans Warped Tour

If you don’t know what Warped Tour is, let me explain. The summer-long tour is a showcase of the alternative music scene, including acts that make you mosh, and others that can mellow you out. That’s why I love it so much. In the day when the 200 band tour come to my hometown, I […]

Film Review: Mirror, Mirror

Tarsem is back with an update of the Snow White fairy tale and the results are a cute and fresh story that blazes an original and interesting path out of the classic story.

Film Review: Wrath of the Titans

2010’s Clash of the Titans may not be the best film by far, but for a blockbuster with quite the action and visual effects filled center, it is a movie I honestly don’t get sick of watching when I just want to get lost in something. With this base and quite the exciting trailer, Wrath […]

Film Review: The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games is among the year’s most anticipated films, but I have to say I thought it was mostly awful from start to finish.

Film Review: The Hunger Games

A child crawls out of the forest, looking for help that will never come. Instead he is skewered and beaten to death. Because he didn’t have the conch. Yep, that’s how Lord of the Flies worked. Ok, so maybe not, but this was still a rather gruesome thing to read even as a high schooler. […]

HST… Film Review: John Carter

Lauren: Before Pandora became more than the name of a box thanks to a little film called Avatar, before Star Wars became a space opera deserving of more than just cultish, nerd admiration (I’ll include Episodes 1-3 for Zac), there was a man named John Carter who found himself fighting for the inhabitants of Mars. […]

Film Review: Act of Valor

Act of Valor starts with a brief video intro from the directors explaining that in order to create something so authentic to an actual military experience, both in and out of combat, real Navy Seals were brought in to play the main characters. An interesting choice for sure, ends up quickly polarizing the action and […]

The Best of 2011: A Year in Film

I thought 2011 was a quite a good year for film as there were a ton of great movies to see these past few months. From the art house to the big budget fare you could find a lot of options no matter what your interests as the line between the two seems to be […]

HST… Film Review: This Means War

Zac: This Means War is the latest film from director McG, whose previous efforts I have had a lot of fun with. The Charlie’s Angels film and Terminator Salvation are at their worst fun action films and that is what I hoped for here. Sadly, I was ultimately disappointed with the end product, even with […]

Film Review: 21 Jump Street

If you don’t know what 21 Jump Street is before seeing this movie, then welcome to my club. I knew that it was a show back in the 80’s, but I was too young to know what it was. Luckily for me (and for the three of you who are with me), they decided to […]
