Silver Linings Playbook is a film by writer/director David O. Russell (Three Kings, The Fighter), which is much better than one would believe it to be. From the outside, it looks like a story of good-looking people with problems, who may inevitably end up together. In lesser hands, this material could seem trite, but the [...]

Tarantino XX contains eight films chosen by Tarantino to illustrate the first 20 years of his career, featuring the films that helped define his early success, including Reservoir Dogs, True Romance, Pulp [...]
Robert De Niro seems to be letting Nic Cage take all the credit for taking on any role that comes his way. Maybe it is because Nic Cage has more energy in him (that’s why he’s the Rage Cage), while De Niro’s lesser projects seem to involve him sleepwalking through random supporting roles. Freelancers finds [...]
The late 90′s have caught up to me again, yo! Cop Land was to be the ensemble drama to end the decade. You had Sylvester Stallone, Ray Liotta, Harvey Keitel, and Robert De Niro headlining the film, but you also had Stallone not playing an “ordinary” character. Up until that point he was known as [...]
Based on a shocking true story, Killer Elite is a gritty battle between guns-for-hire that has been hailed as “one of the best action thrillers of the year!” by Richard Roeper, ReelzChannel. Pitting two of the world’s most elite operatives against the cunning leader of a secret military society, Killer Elite stars Jason Statham (The Transporter, Death [...]
It is sometimes fun to write about the various adventures of Jason Statham, but other times it can present a challenge. Being perhaps the only pure modern action star of today, when Jason Statham makes a fun action movie, it is worth getting excited about and easy to go into detail about his latest wild [...]
My boy is all over the place nowadays! You see, I discovered him. Yep. That’s right. I discovered Bradley Cooper. I remember telling my wife when we used to watch Alias that Bradley Cooper was going to be a big star one day. She didn’t believe me. I’m always right. Remember that. LOL. Anyway, here’s [...]
Limitless is based around the notion of a myth and a “what if” question. The myth involves the idea that people only use about 10% of their brains. This film asks the question – what if you could take a pill that would open up the rest of your mind. What follows is a story [...]
Ben Stiller and Robert DeNiro reteam on Blu-ray with the hilarious cast of the beloved Meet The Parents and Meet The Fockers in the #1 comedy blockbuster, Little Fockers, April 5th.

Oh yes, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment is finally bringing Taxi Driver to the Blu-ray format this April! Taxi Driver is considered one of the best character studies and even one of the best films of all time. What will truly separate this release from all the others that have come before is that SPHE has [...]
The genesis of what many people consider Martin Scorsese’s finest achievement happened thanks to Robert De Niro. De Niro had read Jake La Motta’s autobiography while he was filming The Godfather Part II and he was convinced that it would make a compelling movie and began to try to convince director Martin Scorsese to direct [...]
Four years ago we caught a glimpse of a fake trailer that would forever change the world of exploitation cinema for years to come. Machete! Originally used as a trailer to open Robert Rodriguez’s Planet Terror, fan reaction was enormous and the world wanted a full feature based on this mythical killing machine. Robert Rodriguez [...]
I don’t know why I wanted to see Little Fockers more, for my love of the first two films or that the lovely Jessica Alba would be partaking in the newest entry of Meet The Parents? However, I will say this. I have become less and less enchanted with Mrs. Alba every time she opens [...]
I was just about to call it a night when all the sudden an angel fell from heaven onto my desktop. Well actually it fell onto my Android phone, but desktop sounds better. Anyway, yes that angel was Jessica Alba’s…oops…I mean Robert Rodriguez’s Machete “official” Blu-ray announcement. And guess what ladies and gentlemen…we also have [...]
Stone is a meandering drama that makes sure to preach its themes pretty loud and clear, but also features very good performances from its stars. It deals with characters suffering from their own flaws and also looks to add some twists on atonement and what makes someone a sinner. Then you have the element of [...]
Now here’s an offer you can’t refuse. How about bringing home two great Universal comedies on Blu-ray, Meet The Parents and Meet The Fockers, just in time for the holiday season and scoring free movie cash to see the third film in the series, Little Fockers, which will be released theatrically on December 22nd? Sounds [...]
Let me start by saying Danny Trejo is awesome. The fact that we are living in a time where he is headlining a movie is great. Trejo has gone from boxing in San Quentin to becoming incredibly prolific, appearing in well over 100 films. He has served mainly as a memorable, tough Mexican in roles [...]
“They f****d with the wrong Mexican!” You ain’t never lied! Chopped straight from the pages of Robert Rodriguez’s Planet Terror comes the tale of the man, the myth, the MACHETE! Featuring an all-star cast that include: Danny Trejo, Robert DeNiro, Jessica Alba, Jeff Fahey, Michelle Rodriguez, Don Johnson, Lindsay Lohan, Steven Seagal, and Cheech Marin, [...]
Unlike the film’s trailer, I am not going to mislead you with the heading of this article. Everybody’s Fine starring Robert De Niro, Drew Barrymore and Kate Beckinsale, comes out in theaters this Friday. Thank goodness I am here to save your wallets so your ten-dollar bills do not commit suicide at the box office. [...]
