Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy celebrates it’s 20th anniversary this year. It’s quite hard to believe considering how fresh and ever-referenced it is now. We even have a sequel that somehow managed to continue the good times almost ten years after the original. Now, realistically, today, this movie could not be made the same. […]

Where to begin with this film. There are great actors, solid performances, and an engaging based on a true story storyline… Yet why does it seem like a complete and utter mess? Why does the film seem discombobulated, half baked and partially made? Story points open, yet don’t close out…. Welcome to a “Royal Mess” […]

When last we left, it was the wonderful Minions-centric prequel to Despicable Me that was torturing my soul. As someone who is indifferent but doesn’t mind this series, that movie was flat out awful. No defending there. But, they’re back, but in more proper form with the third film in the Despicable Me franchise. A […]

Magicians, or Illusionists, have sort of become a dying breed in modern times. In the 80s and 90s they were a pretty big deal. There were television specials, tours and merchandising. Growing up, one of my favorite celebrities was David Copperfield. I taped his television specials and went and saw him when his tour came […]

The closing night film for the 2013 Newport Beach Film Festival is a real audience pleaser. The Way Way Back is a fairly standard coming-of-age story about an introverted boy opening up to others thanks to good-natured people he befriends, away from his family. The film is not breaking any new ground nor is it […]

This has been a great year for animated movies and Despicable Me continues that tradition with it’s unusual character of Gru who is voiced brilliantly by Steve Carrell and who seems to be a blend of Dr. Evil, Looney Tunes, and the Addams Family. Aided by a multitude of not so bright yellow minions, Gru […]
