Piranha 3-D (2010) – Boobs vs. Boom

Action Flick Chick | August 31, 2010

Being a heterosexual female, the breast has limited appeal to me. Now, I can definitely appreciate its aesthetic qualities and certainly applaud a well-timed flash of the boobage, but after a few minutes I get tired of the boobies and want to see some boomies! There is a very precise ratio of boobs/bombs that should [...]

Action Rom Coms – with Giveaway: Lionsgate DVD Killers (Katherine Heigl, Ashton Kutcher)

Action Flick Chick | August 29, 2010

Can a romantic comedy be an action movie too? I’m not just talking about a humorous film that has both action and romance in it. The Action Flick Chick has never reviewed any romantic comedy, much less an action rom com. What is  an action rom com anyway? One random participant in our discussion on that particular subject [...]

Predators (2010)

Action Flick Chick | July 18, 2010

Predators is one spine-rippingly fun movie! Eight people are dropped from airplanes onto a foreign planet. None of them remember anything about how they got there but realize that the one thing most of them have in common is their expertise in killing.

Action Flick Chick | April 12, 2010

The movies that I watch must have one of two things in them: action or horror. Anything else is just a bonus, and add those two things together in one film and it’s gold. I will be attending Texas Frightmare Festival this year because, well, it has “fright” in the title and Survival of the [...]

Llama Mama | March 28, 2010

Not so long ago in a twitpic not too far away, Nathan Hamill introduced the first of several Star Wars/Action Flick Chick mash-ups. When @ActionChick commented on a different pic he’d put together (see “J2-H2″) featuring a droid-headed Jabba the Hut and Princess Leia in her famous “brass bikini,” Nathan turned around and created her the image that fulfilled many [...]
