Aaron, Liz and Sean try to wrap their minds around this new drama from director Danny Boyle. Starring Aaron Fink, Liz Manashil and Sean Wright. Directed by Amy Taylor. Auctioneer Simon is injured in the midst of an art heist. Unable to remember the details of his crime, Simon is forced into hypnosis. But as [...]
I love how in the dark I was about this movie. The reason I jumped at the chance to see Trance is because I love Danny Boyle’s work, as he always tackles a new genre and injects his kinetic style into it. This generally makes for a film that is quite unique, regardless of its [...]
I was kind of worried throughout the first half of the year that it wasn’t going to be a pleasant 2011 as far as theater viewings went. There were more than a few flops at the cinema by the time June came to a close with a sparse picking of films that had some ‘wow’ factor. [...]
X-Men: First Class is the official first chapter in the X-Men film universe. One could even say that the film is a reboot of sorts, but that may or may not be stretching it a bit. A very cool cast has been assembled to take on the roles of earlier character versions in this latest [...]
Adding to the list of exciting comic films that are coming out during the packed summer of 2011, we now have the latest entry in the X-Men film franchise. I find X-Men films to be among the tougher comic book properties to make into films, as it involves the use of an ensemble cast and [...]
No teasers in that title, eh? I debated back and forth in my mind, searching for some crafty heading for an article on the most recent Marvel Comics film. After wrestling with a few ideas, I said heck with it. Just call it like it is. I was amped sitting in my theater seat watching this [...]

Walt Disney Studios has just released Gnomeo & Juliet on Blu-ray 3-D, Blu-ray 2D, DVD and digital download. I was lucky enough to receive the 3-Disc Combo Pack which includes all of the options I just listed. There is also a Two Disc Blu-ray Combo pack and One Disc DVD available. The dictionary defines cute [...]
The Conspirator means well, despite only measuring up to being decent. I majored in History, I am a fan of the subject matter being presented, and I am a fan of director Robert Redford and his cast of very talented individuals. It is unfortunate that this film could not bring all of these elements together [...]
Right off the bat, I am going to say that I will be surprised with how much I have to say about this movie by the time I reach the end of this review. For whatever reason, Disney has not only decided to produce an animated comedy about lawn gnomes (which is not a bad [...]
I don’t tend to post many news items, but today saw the release of the first trailer for X-Men: First Class, the prequel/reboot of the comic book movie series. With this new trailer out, we now have footage from all three Marvel Studios superhero movies that are going to be released this summer, which also [...]
2006 was a remarkable year in cinema, easily the best of the past decade. A year of dark, meaningful films, with remarkable performances; all of which were trumped by the astounding Forest Whitaker’s Oscar winning performance as Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in Kevin MacDonald’s The Last King of Scotland. Most actors find it easy to [...]
