Captain America is an interesting superhero. He is just a scrawny kid who by the use of science is transformed into a man that has superhuman strength, reflexes, and super goodness. Or at least that’s what I picked up watching[…]

July 14 2011

I’ve only walked out on two movies in my lifetime- the first was Spike Lee’s Crooklyn, which until Tuesday night was the worst film I’d ever seen (most of) in a theater. Now I can unequivocally state that Transformers: Dark[…]

July 10 2011

Stop the presses- the most improbable news story of the year has to be that not one, but two, that’s right two extremely funny movies have been made this year starring cast members from Saturday Night Live. That show is[…]

Trooooolllllllllllll! That’s the most memorable line from one of the best movies I’ve seen all year. Troll Hunter, or Trolljegeren in the original Norweigan, is a fun flick from the first frame to the last. It uses the Blair Witch[…]

So I saw Bad Teacher, and I was pleasantly surprised. There were some fun characters, a few moments of genuine laughter, and some gratuitous T&A. That’s far more than I thought I would get from this movie, which I expected[…]

I saw X-Men: First Class tonight, and for some reason all the discussions of mutant genes and the letter X reminded me of a series of books I loved when I was a teenager. They focused on a man named[…]

Because if you do, you should tell Owen Wilson. It’s disturbing to stare at his crooked schnoz blown up to 5 feet on a movie screen for an hour and a half. This is a review (of sorts) of Midnight[…]

May 11 2011

I’m convinced that Natalie Portman either cannot read, or refuses to do so, since it seems that instead of reading scripts, she’ll take any movie she’s offered these days. If I wasn’t a Star Wars fanboy, I’d say that the[…]
