Everyone Wants ‘A Faster Horse’ (Movie Review)

A Faster HorseIf A Faster Horse proves nothing else than the fact that we all have our own “Mustang” story, then the documentary film is already a winner in my book.  For me, I suppose my father had a little something to do with my infatuation and affectionate love for the legendary pony car.  You see, my dad had a little makeshift shrine in our basement devoted to his 1964 1/2 red convertible that included pictures of it, the original window sticker and whatnot.  One of his most famed tales is how he almost walked away from that new vehicle deal over a hundred dollar disagreement with the salesman.  Now between you and me, one-hundred dollars seems like chump change today, but back then that would be like saying you owe me seven-hundred and fifty-two dollars.  Come to think of it that is still chump change.  Alright, my dad’s just cheap.  There I said it!  However, he taught me the value of money and how to manage it so there’s always a silver lining.  I suppose that since my room was decorated with posters like the Cobra branded logo on my bedroom door and the models I crafted were all Ford Mustangs had a little something to do with my obsession over the muscle car too.  I remember this one model fondly.  It was a black 1980 Cobra Mustang that had that infamous, large Cobra logo on the hood.  I loved that car!

San Andreas (Blu-ray Review)

San AndreasIt wouldn’t be another calendar year at the movies without the obligatory disaster film, would it?  No way!  This time out we have the heavyweight Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson leading the pack.  And while the film’s initial trailers, with the exception of the slow, melodic take on “California Dreamin,” didn’t do much to whet my appetite for this one I was just hoping for at least some senseless fun.  Is that too much to ask?  I thought to myself before my first go around with this Blu-ray title theatrically that if I could leave with a few giggles had, then it would all be worth it.  Plus, I owe my girlfriend big time for dragging her out of the house against her will assuring her both Tomorrowland and Jupiter Ascending this year wouldn’t be that bad.  Both were pure dog duty.  And here we are.  San Andreas is coming out on Blu-ray October 13th!  Let’s chat about that and also all the chaos, mayhem, destruction and FX down below.

Ryan Adams – 1989 (Album Review)

Ryan Adams - 1989So this album is something of a rarity these days.  It’s a musician from one genre actually acknowledging the artistic merit of someone with a completely different style.  Most often when a cover album is made the tendency is to alter the original concept to such an extent that the core message and feeling that the lyrics are trying to convey, is almost completely lost.  What Ryan has done is not only recreate the songs in a his own image, but he’s also maintained the core values that Taylor Swift initially set forth to express.

Cross The Border To Check Out ‘Sicario’ (Movie Review)

SicarioSicario is one of those titles that when the press screening invite hit my inbox I immediately fist pumped the air and screamed “oh hell yeah.”  There was just something about the theatrical trailer (in particular that hallway of dead bodies behind the walls), never mind my love for Villeneuve’s Prisoners, that instantly sucked me in and had me believing without a shadow of a doubt that I was really going to love this one.  Does that even make any sense?  It does to me, but I digress.  So while the rumor mill has Lionsgate already eagerly working on a sequel to Sicario, let’s not put the cart in front of the horses.  We still need to tackle one very important subject here first and foremost.  What’s that your wondering?  Well, the movie review of the first Sicario of course.  So here we go… Continue reading ‘Cross The Border To Check Out ‘Sicario’ (Movie Review)’

‘The Martian’ Cultivates A Rich Extraplanetary Film Experience (Movie Review)

The MartianThe Martian is one of those rare moments where I went into the movie knowing full well what was going to happen.  No, I’m not clairvoyant.  I read the book written by Andy Weir.  However, what makes the headlines even more interesting besides me reading a book is the fact that Andy’s novel was first self published in 2011.  It wasn’t until 2014 that the world really knew of Andy’s work here when Crown Publishing purchased the rights.  How do you like those apples?  Pretty damn impressive, huh?  You know it!  And you also know sooner or later with Mars One in the mainstream headlines everything is going to be about Mars so you better just get used to it now.  However, what’s not to love with Ridley Scott in the director’s chair here?  Oh yeah baby!  So sit back and blast off with me as I take you to Mars and back below with The Martian.
