Sicario 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 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.

Boulevard will end up being known as the last dramatic movie that Robin Williams (Good Will Hunting, Dead Poets Society) filmed before he passed away. Really, that is too bad because while not every Robin Williams film is a highly-lauded classic, it is undeniable that he was a talented actor with an impressive range and a flair for providing a pleasantly over-the-top performance and Boulevard squanders that potential. Instead, this film uses a powerful and dynamic actor to tell a boring story with boring scenery and mostly boring performances that says nothing new or interesting about its topic. If you are looking for a nice film to round out the memory of Robin Williams, Boulevard is the wrong road to travel. Continue reading ‘Boulevard (Blu-ray Review)’

Ever since I saw the trailer for The Walk in IMAX at a screen of Mad Max: Fury Road I have been enthralled about seeing it. The weird thing though is I hate heights. However, I’m oddly drawn to that vertigo feeling seeing a film such as The Walk on a large IMAX screen can induce. Is that weird? I think so, but then again I am weird so maybe it only makes sense. Anyway, the time has finally come to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt walk that green screen stretch between at the time in 1974 the very real Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. What say you? You ready to take that death defying plunge in IMAX with me this week? Don’t worry. I assure you Joseph Gordon-Levitt will be just fine. It’s just a movie, and remember, he’s Robin (aka The Boy Wonder) after all. Come on. Put your tightrope walking shoes on and following me in.
