Captain America: The Review

Eh. Kinda slow paced, plot is kinda thin, action is so so, weapons and vehicles are rather unbelievable for 1943, and the ending was a slight downer. Not a bad movie, per se, but not worth, at best, an afternoon matinee for the 2D version. The 3D was kinda boring. The character development was sparse. […]

X-Men Origins: First Class – The Review

Very simply put, this was a fun, fun movie, which did a great job in setting up the beginning of the X-Men, who Charles Xavier was, how Eric Lansherr becomes Magneto, what’s the deal with their friendship (and antagonism), as well as including some of the original characters, such as Mystique and Hank McCoy/Beast. Now, […]

Reviews! Fast 5 And Pirates 4

I’m going to start with Fast 5, which I went to see about a week and a half ago, forgot to publish. I’ll make it easy: one hell of a fun movie. Action, drama, more action, cars going really fast, great character development, all that you’ve come to expect with the Fast movies with Vin […]

Battle: Los Angeles – The Review

Been quite some time since I had a review up, mostly because there hasn’t been anything I have been interested in since RED. Went to see Battle: Los Angeles this afternoon, and I will give it a solid B+. Was there a lot of dialogue? Nope. Was the dialogue super awesome? Nope. Was the story […]

Wed Awesome! A Star Wars Media Room

A break from the norm, and some Star Wars Awesome The force is strong with this couple. Two computer programmers who claim to not be crazy Star Wars fanatics built a home theater modeled after Darth Vader’s destroyer vessel in The Empire Strikes Back. Kim Howett, 41, and her husband, Jim, 43, said they have […]

Washington Post Destroys “Fair Game” Weeks After It Tanks

You remember the movie “Fair Game”, right? No? Well, I guess it was kinda hard to miss, since it was released November 5th, and immediately tanked. Worldwide, it has made a whopping $12 million, with a production cost of $22 million. That earns it a big #FAIL tag. Yet, almost a month later, the Washington […]

Skyline – The Review

Having a tough time with this one. I liked it, but…….the story was rather flat, as was the emotion. It was entertaining, but, perhaps not so much that it is worth seeing in a movie theater. Might have been better off as SyFy channel Saturday night movie (albeit better than their standard fare). Many reviews […]

Tuesday Funny: So, How’s That Joe Wilson/Valerie Plame Movie Doing?

The answer would be: beyond dismal. This bit of fanciful fluff, which attempts to paint Valerie Wilson as just a normal mom before 9am, to some sort of international spy flying around the world putting out fires, being involved in firefights, like James Bond, during the day, opened Friday, November 5th, and, pulled in a […]

RED – The Movie Review

Yes, I headed out to the 1:20pm showing of RED this afternoon, and, was impressed. To make it simple, I’ll give it a solid B. For those expecting all action, like so many Bruce Willis movies, nope, sorry. There were some times which were a little slow, perhaps a bit awkward. Yet, as the movie […]

Piranha 3D – The Review!

It has been quite some time since I reviewed a film, hasn’t it? Quite frankly, it’s been awhile since I bothered going to the movies, since, most of the films this year have sucked. Last one I saw in the theater was Nightmare On Elm Street. Well, let me tell you about Piranha 3D – […]
