The End Of The Tour (Blu-ray Review)

The End of the Tour has come to Blu-ray and it still sits as one of the best films of the year. It’s a simple story, but a fine two-hander between stars Jesse Eisenberg and Jason Segal. The story is about a rushed friendship of sorts and the film continually delivers on various realizations between […]

Rio 2 (Blu-ray Review)

All I knew about the first Rio going into this was that it was the film that topped the box office the weekend Scream 4 was released.  It was a huge hit, taking almost half a billion dollars worldwide.  In order to properly review Rio 2, I had to watch Rio before this and wow…I’m […]

Don’t Look Too Closely And You’ll Find Fun In ‘Now You See Me’ (Movie Review)

Now You See Me is the kind of movie that is both a lot of fast-paced fun throughout and still annoying due to how clever it thinks it is.  I can see a large audience enjoying this movie quite a bit, as everything is moving so quickly that there is rarely a chance to stop […]

Woody Allen Meanders ‘To Rome’

It is kind of fun to reference To Rome with Love as “this year’s Woody Allen film”.  Allen seemingly works non-stop, releasing new films on a near yearly basis and has a pretty strong batting average overall that most other filmmakers would kill to have.  Especially given his creative freedom, Allen has enjoyed plenty of […]

30 Minutes or Less (Blu-ray Review)

I was a little apprehensive about going in and reviewing the Blu-ray of 30 Minutes or Less, because I never cared for the trailer or marketing materials that were released for it. It looked like a try-hard comedy film. Hey, but you gotta do what you gotta do when reviewing films, right? That’s what I […]

“30 Minutes Or Less” Will Be Delivered This November

This past summer saw the release of 30 Minutes or Less, director Ruben Fleischer’s follow up to the smash hit Zombieland.  While I can’t say that I personally loved the film (review HERE), it certainly had a lot going for it and I’m willing to give it a second shot on Blu-ray, come its release […]

Check Your Wall, I “Liked” The Social Network

An important thing to note right off the bat about this film is that it is not “Facebook: The Movie.”  This is a film, based on a novel that recounts the creation of Facebook through multiple perspectives and the legal action that followed.  I believe this film could have just as easily been about the […]

‘The Social Network’ Makes Me Want to be a Billionaire So Frickin’ Bad

Let’s start off with the obvious question.  Who out there reading this doesn’t have a Facebook account, a show of hands please?  I futilely resisted all these years, but when pressured by the marketing forces behind the studios to get one for promotion of our reviews, I reluctantly succumbed having no choice in the matter […]

Zombieland: “Gotta Enjoy the Little Things”

What started out as a pilot for a CBS horror-comedy show, turned out to become this weekend’s number one smash hit at the box office.  Shot with a $23.6 million budget and pulling in some initial weekend dough of $25 million, Zombieland is something Hollywood and audiences should take notice of.  That’s really not bad […]
