The Da Vinci Code book was one of those that come around every so often that make non-readers take note of and spend time doing something they normally wouldn’t…they READ. Yes, I’m one of those suckers too. While I love to read I often have this problem in life called no time. By the time I […]

Following the sadly underseen Rush and the underwhelming In The Heart of the Sea, director Ron Howard returns to his moneymaking Robert Langdon film series with Inferno, based on the novel by Dan Brown. Tom Hanks is back too, continuing to portray his boorish, know-it-all character (although the hair is kept much more in check […]

In preparation of Jurassic World, like a nerd, I spent the entire weekend cramming in the previous three films. It’s safe to say that I’ve seen the first one like a hundred times, but the latter two, I honestly had no recollection of. I also have to admit, these films aren’t really my favorites either. […]

Steven Spielberg returns to executive produce the long-awaited next installment of his groundbreaking Jurassic Park series, Jurassic World. Colin Trevorrow directs the epic action-adventure from a screenplay he wrote with Derek Connolly. Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley join the team as producers.

“Clever girl.” Well this is more exciting than I was expecting. Jurassic World is coming and while I may not have many nice things to say about the previous Jurassic Park sequels (I like 3 more than The Lost World though), I still have a continue interest in dinosaurs and the world that these films exist in.

I was very happy to see all the success that Life of Pi received during its theatrical run. It is by no means a traditional Hollywood film, which is reflected by its international acclaim being more resonant than its domestic success. With that said, the film did make a good splash box office-wise and critically, […]

Life of Pi was a film I was really happy to embrace. This is the story, based off the bestselling novel (claimed to be unfilmable for a long time), which chronicles the journey of Pi, a young boy who is stranded at sea, along with a tiger. I saw it multiple times in theaters, namely […]

Upon hearing that this year would see the release of Life of Pi, a 3D film adaptation of the bestselling, but supposedly unfilmable book by Yann Martel, I was immediately feeling the same vibe that I had from Hugo in 2011. This feeling was amplified further upon learning that it was going to be directed […]
