Despite the fact that Daniel Radcliffe turns 18 next week, Harry Potter is only in his fifth year at Hogwarts. This wouldn’t be entirely bad if it weren’t for the fact that David Yates shows a flashback sequence every five minutes depicting Harry Potter as this eight-year-old child, but I was able to get […]

Last weekend, I went out with my girlfriend and saw “Ratatouille” at one of the newly built Marcus Theaters, the Majestic. Although I thought the gaudy, over-the-top, money pit, that is the Majestic was nothing worth writing about, “Ratatouille” on the other hand is quite the contrary.
“Ratatouille” is Pixar’s newest animated masterpiece. Remember […]

Due to working a long and tiring shift last night, I was completely fed up with our piece of shit projectors. So, I decided I’d reward myself and run Live Free or Die Hard.
I’ve been following this movie since I heard of its release and to tell you the truth, I wasn’t expecting anything […]

I ended up getting out to see Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer last night. I’ll tell you right now, don’t waste your time on this one. Everything I hated in the first one came back in full force for the sequel.

When Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl came out a few years ago, it drew a lot of attention before its release. There were posters and banners everywhere and people were just starting to really fall in love with Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp on a mass scale. I […]

I ended up going out with my girlfriend last night to see Nicholas Gage’s new action/thriller Next based off a story written by Philip K. Dick. Philip K. Dick, if you don’t already know, is the brilliant mind behind the stories such as Blade Runner, Minority Report, and A Scanner Darkly. Unfortunately, Next […]

Before I write this, I must tell you I haven’t seen Spider-Man 3 in it’s entirety. This is mostly due to the fact that Kal Penn is a jackass and his movie The Namesake showed up late, but I’ll rant about that later. Don’t worry, there won’t be any spoilers.

I want to start this little review by saying one thing. Loved it, LOVED IT!
When I heard that and Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie was coming out, I immediately thought it would be bad. That’s not because I don’t like the show, because I do. Its not because I didn’t […]

There has been much excitement about Grindhouse recently in the world of movie fanatics. Generally Quentin Tarantino has a loyal fan base, ready to see his new film at the drop of a hat and Robert Rodriguez inexplicably has such devoted fans as well. Unfortunately, this double feature by the tandem did not […]

I know this has nothing to do with an actual movie, but I wrote a little thing about the awesome television series Planet Earth. I won’t clutter this site with it, so go here to check it out.

My friend Dave Faber and I thought it would be a good idea to spend a large chunk of a Friday night on a movie double feature. Our taste in movies can easily be summed up by the disparate themes of our choices, Dead Silence, an obviously sub-par horror movie and Teenage Mutant Ninja […]

The Oscars apparently changed the award format. Instead of giving out little gold plated Ken dolls, they’re famous five words have changed to, “And the soapbox goes to…..” I just want everyone to know that if it wasn’t for Al Gore, I might not have had the will to shave today. […]

Todd Field’s Little Children is littered with exactly that, little children both literally and figuratively. In a quiet suburban community in Massachusetts children play on the slide in the playground and swim in the pool. The adults in this community are the little children that the movie is focusing on however. They […]

Notes on a Scandal is a dark and twisted story of infatuation and betrayal that delivers great acting performances. Both Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett are worthy of their Oscar nominations while Bill Nighy is very adept in his turn as the unwitting husband. Also, Richard Eyre directs the movie very well, and […]

Letters from Iwo Jima was a great movie. Definitely one of the best movies of the year, but you can’t help leaving the theatre in an incredibly somber mood. Clint Eastwood approaches this film with an objective, war is war and the effects of it are the same on both sides. […]

Oscar nominations were just released, and there weren’t many surprises in the bunch. I was happy to see that a few of the movies I really liked got nominated for some stuff (Letters From Iwo Jima, Flags of Our Fathers, Little Miss Sunshine, The Prestige, Pan’s Labyrinth). Its a little sad that The Prestige and […]

Here are my favorite 10 movies of last year. This doesn’t necessarily have them in order of what I think is a better film, just what I enjoyed more.
10. Superman Returns
I think this is on here just because I’m generally a sucker for super hero movies and especially Superman Movies. Overall […]

Pan’s Labyrinth is a great, modern fairy tale that weaves classic styles with modern sensibilities. It manages to create a story that shows real life horrors alongside imaginative, mythical horrors. One of the best scenes in the movie is when Ofelia (Ivana Baquero) must break into the lair of a hideous creature […]

Add Children of Men to the growing list of movies that I didn’t seem to like quite as much as everyone else. I don’t know why this trend is happening, whether its because I am getting tougher on movies, or other people’s tastes are just getting watered down by the quality that has […]

I haven’t seen a movie in a long, long time (Blood Diamond in the middle of December. It was ok, not great, not terrible), but I would like to write something nonetheless. So, I am going to write about a couple things from the movies’ smaller friend, the television.
The Season 2 […]
