Producer and star Will Ferrell, […]

Casa De Mi Padre Is A Decently Funny Experiment

I have got to hand it to Will Ferrell.  In recent times, it seems like some have soured on some of his antics, which can happen to a lot of comedic stars who make a lot of movies that can be generally categorized in a similar way.  I like Will Ferrell quite a bit, he […]

Everything Must Go (Blu-ray Review)

Over the past decade, Will Ferrell’s taken a spin on the same ride that Eddie Murphy, Mike Meyers, and Chevy Chase took before him:  he came out of nowhere to become an MVP on NBC’s SNL (whoa, that was a whole bunch of acronyms), appeared in a handful of smallish roles in other people’s comedies […]

‘Everything Must Go’ Has Will Ferrell Dialed Down

Will Ferrell headlining a limited release comedic drama is not the sort of film that is going to stir a ton of interest from audiences that are happy with seeing him be loud and boisterous, but that does not mean the film should be overlooked.  Ferrell is very good in a role that does not […]

‘Megamind’ Brainstorms a Blu-ray Release Date

I did not get a chance to check this one out in the theaters, but I was very interested in seeing it.  The reviews have been mixed for the most part, but I think I will give it a shot this February.  Dreamworks has just announced a February 25th Blu-ray release date for the animated […]

The Other Guys (Blu-ray Review)

Stop!  Freeze right there!  I want to play a game.  No, not like Jigsaw does in the Saw movies, but I want to play good cop, bad cop.  What?  You want to be the bad cop too?  How will that ever work out?  Well if you are talking about the Will Ferrell/Mark Wahlberg action-comedy film […]

Elf – Ultimate Collector’s Edition (Blu-ray Review)

It seems like every year we get some kind of Christmas movie and they usually all follow certain patterns which can be comforting or annoying depending on how well executed it is.  Some movies like Elf, take familiar story that comes with the usual plot-lines but somehow manages to create something new and original.

Megamind Makes it Good to Be Bad…and Blue

Megamind is the second animated feature this year (next to Despicable Me) to focus on the villain’s side of things.  It comes from Dreamworks, whose animated features tend to range from satisfying, sweet, clever types to forgettable, pop culture-heavy, jokey types.  This film falls somewhere in the middle, but on the positive side.  It features […]

‘The Other Guys’ Stumble Onto Blu-ray in Dec.

So here’s a film that really surprised me this summer.  Who knew a PG-13 rated film could ever be so funny?  I had no desire or fervor to even check this one out, but I was pleasantly surprised during my press screening of The Other Guys.  What was I surprised about?  Well quite frankly, I […]

Bringing in ‘The Other Guys’ Was a Solid Choice

Here’s a genre mix – A fanciful comedy set in the world of a gritty buddy cop film.  I say this because this movie never tries to make its world feel real, despite being filmed as if it were from the door steps of a Michael Mann cop drama.  Instead, we have a film that […]

I Want To Be Just Like ‘The Other Guys’
