Piranha 3D – Review

Alexandre Aja’s re-imagining of Piranha is finally here and it’s here in glorious 3D… well maybe not so much glorious. Touting some pretty big names, Piranha 3D has been making some waves since its sudden removal from the Comic Con venue this year, piquing my curiosity as to how bad (read good) it realy could

The Expendables – Review

Well we all knew it was bound to happen sooner or later. A gathering of heroes, past and present. In fact, a lot of the action heroes we grew up with together for the first time in one balls out action flic. This was to be the event culminating from decades of action films… or

Scott Pilgrim Versus The World – Review

Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead) has outdone himself! Scott Pilgrim is a film that defines a generation, blending the best elements of video games, music and kung fu… but there’s so much more. Scott Pilgrim is easily one of the best films to come along in the last decade! Scott Pilgrim’s life is so

The Other Guys – Review

From the mind that brought us Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Talladega Nights, and Step Brothers, writer/director Adam McKay takes on the buddy cop genre. This guy just loves Will Ferrell! The Other Guys is a fun distraction, and has a lot of funny moments, but in the end it just comes up short.

Dinner For Schmucks – Review

Directed by Jay Roach (Austin Powers, Meet The Parents), Dinner For Schmucks is a comedy based on a French play The Dinner Game (Le diner de cons). Starring comedic heavy hitters Steve Carell, Paul Rudd, and Zach Galifianakis, Schmucks should have, and could have been much funnier than it actually was. Tim (Paul Rudd) is

Despicable Me – Review

Caught this at a late night showing a week ago and enjoyed it very much, although I’m not sure if the film was as fun as having the entire theater to ourselves. My buddies were worse than a couple of 5 year olds… in a good way though. There was no one to disturb, so

Salt – Review

Who is Salt? Who the hell cares! Actually Salt’s been getting some mediocre to good reviews from fans and press alike. I went in expecting a strong story strung together by tense action scenes, what I got was silly action scenes strung together by a weak and ridiculous story that just falls apart in its

Inception – Review

From the mind of director Cristopher Nolan comes what can easily be classified as the year’s best film… before the year is even over. Both written and directed by Nolan, Inception is a multi layered masterpiece that will have you thinking hours after you’ve left the theatre. In fact very few films in recent memory

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice – Review

The reviews for The Sorcerer’s Apprentice have been pretty bad so far. Fortunately, I haven’t been putting too much stock into the critical masses of late. Someone makes a comment and every critic and wannabe carries that opinion to a repetitive, mind numbing peak. The Sorcerer’s Apprentice is easily on par with most of Jon

Predators – Review

Those who know me know I’ve been waiting for this with nervous anticipation for quite a while. Not a huge fan of Nimrod Antal’s previous work, I was worried that he would mess it up. Over the months though, interview after interview, Robert Rodriguez seemed to have a lot more input than Antal. If Rodriguez

The Last Airbender – Review

I took in The Last Airbender on Thursday and really had to give it a few days to sink in. My first impressions walking out of the theatre were… that was pretty damn good. Keep in mind though, I haven’t seen the cartoons… at least not all of them. The critics over the last few

Twilight Saga: Eclipse – Review

Yup, this was a first for me, seeing a new Twilight film in the theatre… and on opening weekend! After watching the first two just a bit ago, I realized that in order to appreciate these films you have to except the target audience. These movies are not being made for my tastes, so it’s

Knight and Day – Review

I really don't think this is the Cruise career ending disaster a lot of the critics are panning it out to be. It may not be a great film, but I've sat through a lot worse.

Jonah Hex – Review

A true example of a film I see so you don’t have to! Every few years a sacrificial lamb is thrown to the dogs. Some of our fondest comic book memories are given piss poor treatments… a level that sits well below efforts like Fantastic Four, The Punisher, Daredevil, and Ghost Rider. I’m talkin’ Cat

The A-Team (2010) – Review

Three words are important and will reflect your ability to fully enjoy this film…. Suspension Of Disbelief! “A group of Iraq War veterans looks to clear their name with the U.S. military, who suspect the four men of committing a crime for which they were framed.” Anybody who knows the 80s, knows The A-team! It
