300 was one of those films where I truly didn’t realize how amazing it was with only one viewing under my proverbial belt.  Admittedly so it took a couple for me to declare it epic, but fast forward 13 years and here we are.  One of the greatest historical fantasy films is making its 4K […]

Welcome Back To The Cartoonishly Grim World Of ‘Sin City’ (Movie Review)

In 2005 I fell in love with Sin City.  While the worst thing that film may have given since us was the directional ambitions of the graphic novel’s creator Frank Miller (see don’t see: The Spirit), it had plenty else to offer.  Director Robert Rodriguez delivered an ambitious and visually stunning adaptation of a few books from the […]

7 Years Later, Witness ‘300’ Rise Again (Movie Review)

300 is not a film many would have watched in its original release and thought it could use a sequel.  Back in March of 2007, director Zack Snyder impressed audiences with his stylized cinematic vision of Frank Miller’s graphic novel, which was a fictionalized retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae.  300 was fairly straightforward, but […]
