‘THE DICTATOR’ Movie Review: This film is Aladeen, but it’s a pity it wasn’t more Aladeen.

Watching The Dictator, and re-watching Borat and Bruno, makes it pretty clear that Sacha Baron Cohen’s  characters are best fitted to documentary style film and television (let’s not forget the Ali G Show).

MOVIE REVIEW: ‘GHOST RIDER: SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE’ : The Negativity Towards This Film Is Bullcrap. Nevaldine/Taylor Deliver On All Counts!

Screen shot 2012-03-18 at 3.18.39 AM

I just don’t understand the negativity towards ‘Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance.’ I don’t understand it at all. Then again; I don’t understand the vitriol people spray at directors Nevaldine/Taylor – whose (prior to Ghost Rider) films ‘Crank,’ ‘Crank 2: High Voltage’ and ‘Gamer’ were pissed on in a similar fashion. Before I get on to the body of this review, I’d like to say that I am impressed by the filmmakers and I won’t be crapping on about the duo…well I won’t too much. Read more…

Immortals

Reviewed by Jin:

If I told you Tarsem Singh; director of ‘The Cell’ is doing a Greek mythology action flick: You should know what to expect. I am here to report that the end result is exactly what you expected. And no, that is actually not a bad thing at all. Read more…

‘TWILIGHT BREAKING DAWN: PART ONE’ Movie Review: As John Lennon So Wonderfully Put It: “I’m So Tired.”

THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN-PART 1

‘Twilight: Breaking Dawn: Part One’ isn’t so much a cinematic disaster – as the previous ones are – as it is a competently made, flaccid and truly mean-spirited mess. Much like its main character Edward Cullen; this film has the capacity to inflict such hurt on people; that the effects may not be known for a long time. Read more…

‘IN TIME’ Movie Review: Smarter And More Entertaining Than Most Of The 2011 Blockbusters

‘In Time’ is not the movie that the trailers make it out to be. And by that I mean it’s not a bad movie at all. I would straight up recommend this movie. Read more…

‘REAL STEEL’ Movie Review: Giant Robots Fighting Each Other Finally Done Right!

Film Review Real Steel

Every so often a giant-robots-fighting-each-other movie comes along that is actually good. ‘Night At The Museum’ director Shawn Levy’s new film ‘Real Steel’ didn’t look like it would destroy the incredible run of piece-of-shit-giant-robot movies. Well it does. Read more…

‘FRIGHT NIGHT’ Movie Review: Don’t Believe The Crummy Trailers – This Movie Is Awesome!

fright night why so blu 8

Sometimes these media screenings are funny: Hey let’s go see ‘Fright Night’ an adult rated gory horror movie at 8am in the morning on a weekday? It’s kind of hard to get into that required mood when it’s real early and you’re on a bus before the sun has even risen. But you know; it became evident pretty quickly that ‘Fright Night’ wasn’t exactly a horror movie – it has horror elements sure, but at its heart it’s a dark comedy. A very funny, gory entertaining 90’s esque film – and I loved it! Read more…

‘THE CHANGE UP’ Movie Review: Worth seeing because of the ‘FACE OFF’ factor.

The-Change-Up

Remember that movie ‘Face Off’ directed by John Woo? The one with Nicolas Cage and John Travolta? Of course you do. ‘The Change Up’ starring Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds works because of the exact same reasons as that movie did. The only thing this new movie is missing is some slow motion Doves.
