I think Green Lantern is the first film to acknowledge just how silly it is that just because a superhero has a tiny mask on, no one they know will ever be able to recognize them. Uh oh, I can’t recognize my child I’ve [...]

This was also the time when movies were filmed by using Super 8 cartridges (a roll of 8mm wide film,) instead of the all digital route. Hmmm, sounds like a lot more work. I think I [...]

X-Men: First Class is no exception. So go ahead and get out that box of pencils or line up your mugs, but I’ll tell you [...]

I hate it! Why should I have to pay 2 or more extra dollars for a pair of glasses that I have 50 pairs of at home? Even if the extra money is not for the glasses, even [...]

I usually don’t fawn over the handsome men in films (unless it’s 300 or Jason Statham), but holy pepperoni pizza Hemsworth is an attractive, ripped dude. Good work! Marvel Studios has started the summer off [...]

Don’t get confused by its label of ‘action comedy horror’ film, because it ain’t action,  and it’s not all that much of a comedy horror. It’s mostly a paint-by-the-numbers detective story. Dylan Dog (Brandon Routh) is a private investigator of [...]

And I was right, it looked great, but it was not a great movie. Set in the 1950s, Baby Doll (Emily Browning) is sent to a mental institution by her stepfather after her mother dies. There she is scheduled to have a lobotomy [...]

Starring Wesley Snipes as CIA Agent Marcus, this film keeps the action steady throughout the film. Marcus infiltrates an arms dealer operation and becomes the head [...]

He’s all slim and looking good in his little green pimp suit. Good job, Rogen! The Green Hornet is based on the tv show with the same name. Britt Reid (Seth Rogen) comes up with the idea [...]

So [...]

It looked amazing and the 3D was great. The Grid is meant to be seen in 3D, man, and in 3D, it shall be seen! If you haven’t seen the first Tron, the sequel might be a little confusing plot [...]

Think about it. One guy decides to jump out of the train’s cab and then can’t get back in, making several cities in danger. Ooopsie! I’m sorry? Thankfully, Frank Barnes (Denzel Washington) and newbie Will Colson (Chris Pine) are on [...]
