I am a fan of actor Ralph Fiennes. I enjoy stories involving Greek tragedies. And I tend to like films that reappropriate the works of Shakespeare in interesting ways. I found the concept of having Ralph Fiennes star in his directorial debut of the Shakespeare tragedy Coriolanus, which has been set in modern times, despite [...]
When I first heard the title and saw a poster for Machine Gun Preacher, I certainly got the wrong impression. In the wake of films like Machete and Hobo with a Shotgun, I was definitely caught off guard by the very “grindhouse” nature of the film’s title. Machine Gun Preacher is actually a fairly intense [...]
Let the following statements exist purely to serve as my disclaimer. I went into the press screening of How to Train Your Dragon this past Saturday morning with zero expectations. I had never heard of the children’s book before and I knew nothing about the plot other than what my fellow reviewer, Gregg Senko, told [...]
It was only recently in February when I saw an oversized poster for an upcoming animated film called How To Train Your Dragon. I really wasn’t over-enthused or anxious to see it, but anything with a dragon is intriguing enough for me so I did have at least a little bit of anticipation in looking [...]
I just came home from a Wednesday night preview screening of The Bounty Hunter. One word quickly comes to mind. Cliché. The Jennifer Aniston/Gerard Butler romantic comedy, and I’ll use those two words loosely, is about as dull and predictable as they get. I felt my mind going gad during most of the screening. It’s [...]
Okay, so Boba Fett wasn’t actually comedic as the intent of this film is, but he was cool and that’s something the film The Bounty Hunter is not. Starring Gerard Butler and Jennifer Aniston, audiences get to discover that Gerard Butler can be in a crappy film. Call it bad direction, call it bad acting, [...]
Let’s cut straight to the chase here. I realize that I am probably going to lose credibility points amongst the masses for having nothing but good things to say about this Blu-ray release, but today I became something I never thought I would ever be…a “gamer.” Yes, that’s right, today I fell in love with [...]
2009 was an interesting year for films. By mid-summer, I was wondering if I was going to be able to fill out this list. Hasbro made a splash with two of its most successful lines appearing in theaters. Sandra Bullock had two films surface this year. Vampires seemed to be at the turn of every [...]
Now here is a movie I know little about except for the fact that I anxiously want to see it. Every time I had an opportunity to see this film during its theatrical run my chances were nixed. I even had press screening passes to this one and I was unable to use them. However, it seems [...]
Gamer is another movie that totally slipped past my radar, this year, during its theatrical run. If only I had more time in life to accomplish everything I want to. I bet we all say that at one point or another. Anyway, enough excuses! My time to see Gamer in glorious High-Definition will be here [...]
What a twisted film. I loved it. There is no sense in hiding my feelings for Law Abiding Citizen starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler. I really can’t remember that last time I’d been to the theater two days in a row, but after the draining monotony of Amelia yesterday, I needed some cinematic Listerine [...]
Gerald Butler and Jamie Foxx go head to head in a cat and mouse tale of domestic terrorism in Law Abiding Citizen. The initial trailer that I saw for this movie had me rooting for Clyde Shelton (Gerald Butler’s character). He’s the guy that manages to survive a home invasion that brutally ends the lives [...]
We finally got some pertinent Blu-ray news to report on. Yeah! New Line Home Entertainment has announced a November 24th release date for the romantic comedy Four Christmases. The Blu-ray release will see a 1080P VC-1 video presentation and a 5.1 Dolby TrueHD audio surround track. Nothing like a good Christmas comedy to put you [...]
