Review: The Cabin in the Woods (2012)!

Action Flick Chick | April 16, 2012

Joss freakin’ Whedon is A-MAZING! He consistently produces fantastic work and is one of the best at writing strong female characters. Somewhere between Firefly and The Avengers Whedon co-wrote his first true-blue horror film, The Cabin in the Woods, with  Drew Goddard. This flick was so good if it were a hired escort, I’d empty [...]

Film Review: Ebony, Ivory, & Jade (1976)!

Action Flick Chick | January 2, 2012

Machete Maidens, a documentary on the exploitation films made in the Philippines, highlighted the film Ebony, Ivory, & Jade, so of course I had to watch it. The title is rather misleading, though. For starters, because of the type of film it is, you’d think it’s about three ladies, one of Asian decent, one of [...]

Cowboys & Aliens (2011)

Action Flick Chick | August 1, 2011

There have been Ninjas vs. Vampires, Cowboys vs. Zombies, Aliens vs. Predators, and even Monsters vs. Aliens; but, never has there been a mash up exactly like Cowboys & Aliens. This flick takes you back to the old west with primitive weapons and pairs it up the advanced technology of aliens. Throw in Indiana Jones [...]

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)! Is There More Than Meets the Eye?

Action Flick Chick | July 4, 2011

My love for the Autobots grows deeper every day; however, my love for the Transformers films has thinned with each film that comes out. The third installment, Dark of the Moon, was better than the second one, but by how much?
Shia LaBeouf reprises his role as Sam Witwicky, who’s now a college grad just trying [...]

Chicks Who Don’t Want Flowers: Hatchet II (2010)

Action Flick Chick | February 17, 2011

It’s always exciting when a movie’s title screen is bloody and is accompanied by the sounds of a chainsaw ripping through flesh and people screaming! Hatchet II’s title screen starts off that way, and the rest of the film lives up to what it presented.
Hatchet II continues right where Hatchet ended, with not a second [...]

Mini Review and Spoiler: The Final Destination (2009) a.k.a. Final Destination 4

Action Flick Chick | June 8, 2010

Spoiler alert! Don’t read if you somehow care about but don’t know what happens in this film.

The Final Destination is stupid! I mean really, really stupid. In fact, I’m a little upset at myself for deciding to watch it even though I had been warned not to. Yes, it is full of action, but it’s [...]

Iron Man 2 (2010)

Action Flick Chick | May 10, 2010

I went to see Iron Man 2 Friday. And on the way to the theater, my pals and I were discussing what Iron Man does when he’s suited up but he has to go to the bathroom, an issue that I’m sure you’ve all wondered about. Well, wonder no more, because little did we know [...]
