Killer Elite (2011–116 mins) Jason Statham, Clive Owen and Robert De Niro I am a HUGE fan of all three of these action giants in this spy triller. I have been saying for a while now that Statham is an actor who is really coming into his own as a vehicle for action movies as […]

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 (2011–117 mins) Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner  Twilight is a pretty polarizing franchise. On one hand you have the teeny-bopper girls, and love struck women who faun over the guys in the movie and the doomed from the start love story. Then you also get the […]

The Help (2011– 146 mins) Emma Stone, Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer Skeeter Phelan (Stone) is fresh out of college and wanting to show the world what she can do. She’s got aspirations of being a bigtime writer back in her small town world. However, the world doesn’t exactly work like that, and she finds […]

The Guard (2011– 96 mins) Brendan Gleeson, Don Cheadle and Mark Strong Brendan Gleeson has a knack of playing a smart ass character, sometimes bordering on down right assish, but making them generally like able. This Indy role is perhaps one of my favorites of his by far. He plays Sgt. Boyle, a small town […]

Moneyball (2011- 133 mins) Brad Pitt, Robin Wright and Jonah Hill  I am a huge baseball fan and I am also a pretty big believer in the whole “saber-metrics” craze that Bill James wrote about, which Billy Beane brought to the bigs in the late 90’s early 00’s. So naturally I was wanting to see […]

Last week I posted the top and bottom lists of my viewing of Red Box movies in 2011. Today I want to hit on a few of the honorable mentions from last year. These are movies that are real good to watch but for whatever reason I felt they were just not top 10. However, […]

So you have seen my bottom 11 movies of last year so naturally it’s time for my top 11 or really my favorite 11 movies of 2011. This one will make me a bit happier inside rather then the pure hatred I had even listing the bad movies. A few quick notes on the best […]

Well, 2011 grinded to a screeching halt on me in an epidemic of busy-ness in the real world. I wasn’t able to get up about 10 reviews I wanted to, and my own commentary on the Penny Arcade vs Ocean Media fiasco will have to be saved for another time, or swept under the rug […]

Hanna (2011–111mins) Saoirse Ronan, Cate Blanchett and Eric Bana   Erik (Bana) and his daughter Hanna (Ronan), have been living in ultimate seclusion during the girl’s whole life. The ex CIA operative has been training the girl for the entirely to be an assassin, and a damn good one at that. Her whole life has […]

Hesher (2010– 106 mins) Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Devin Brochu and Natalie Portman  There have always been stories in film involving the mysterious stranger who comes out of nowhere to help some main characters to solve some trouble and then fade into the blackness or walk off into the sunset when it’s all done. Whether it’s a […]
