Scott Pilgrim Vs The World (2010—112 mins) M. Cera, M.E. Winstead    Let’s rewind about a year ago from today. The movie hype machine was in full swing. EVERYONE was on fire about how good the movie adaptation of the popular comic about Scott Pilgrim would be. We never heard the end of it on many […]

The Kids Are All Right (2010— 106 mins) J. Moore, A. Bening, M. Ruffalo  The Kid’s Are All Right the dramedy with Moore, and Bening is  not to be confused with Everybody’s Fine the amazingly depressing drama with Robert De Niro. The only thing they really have in common is they are billed as comedic type […]

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (2010–109 mins) N. Cage, J. Baruchel, A. Molina    Disney has gone and made a live action movie based on the beloved short with mickey and the dancing brooms,mops and other chaos. The story is basic fantasy fare. Cage plays one of Merlin’s 3 apprentice sorcerers Blathazar. In the past he was […]

Splice (2009– 104mins) A. Brody, S. Polley   When Splice first hit the theaters last year it was more built up as a monster-ish horror movie. What it really is is a sci-fi drama which becomes slightly horror-ish at the end. It starts off well enough. Clive (Brody) and Elsa (Polley) are state of the […]

A Christmas Carol (2009—98mins) Jim Carey    Last year Disney put out another updated version of Dickens’ classic story using the same technology that was used on The Polar Express. Also when it was in the theater it was in 3-d. When watching it you can see how great the animation is and when watching […]

Eat Pray Love (2010—133mins) Julia Roberts Eat Pray Love is a chick flick based on a book which is supposedly based on true events. While I guess I can believe most of it, when people write a book about themselves (or tell stories too) some things get changed or embellished, and when that book is […]

The Expendables (2010– 103 mins) Stallone, Statham, Li, E. Roberts    Ahh finally a kick ass shoot em up with no strain on the brain. The Expendables are a unit of special forces types for hire who go where the gov’t can’t be seen going and does some of the dirty jobs. It’s a basic […]

Sex and the City 2 (2010- 146 mins) Tonight not only did I have to sit thru Sex and the City 1! (it was on USA or something) I had to also watch Sex and the City 2 –> AKA the longest damn movie ever made. Initially and for about an hour, I was just […]

Eclipse (2010–124mins) K. Stewart, R. Pattinson, T. Lautner   The third movie in the Twilight series gives us much more of the same. Epic love triangles/whining, and epic struggles to keep the peace. The peace at first that needs keeping is between the Vampires, and the were-wolves. Then all of the peace is threatened by […]

2:22 (2008—104mins) Mick Rossi, Robert Miano, Aaron Gallagher    This lesser known indy is a heist flick about a crew of criminals who pull a New Years Eve job which doesn’t entirely go as planned. When things start to go downhill fast allegiances and trust will be put to the test. I tend to gravitate […]
