No Strings Attached (2011– 108 mins) A. Kutcher, N. Portman “No Strings Attached” is a straightforward and simple rom-com from fabled comedic director/producer Ivan Reitman. It’s been quite a while since he directed anything decent but I am glad to say he’s back on track with this one. What we have here are two people […]

Blue Valentine (2010– 112 mins) Michelle Williams, Ryan Gosling Blue Valentine is a polarizing movie. Most people either LOVE it or HATE it. Some people started the hate b/c of the explicit sex scenes in the movie. Myself? I hate it for the missing story points which lead to large plot holes and more questions […]

Casino Jack (2010– 108 mins) K. Spacey, B. Pepper, J. Lovitz Casino Jack is the high rise and low crash and burn story of  Jack Abramoff, a (former) hot shot government lobbyist. Jack is one of the quick talkers who works all the angles. He’s got his hands in everyone’s pocket playing the congress game. […]

Little Fockers (2010– 98 mins) B. Stiller, R. Dr Niro In “Meet The Parents” all Gaylord (Greg) Focker wants to do is win over the parents of his future wife and to be loved by all. There are multiple misunderstandings leading to tons of embarassment humor and non trust by Jack Burns until he realizes […]

The Green Hornet (2011–119 mins) S. Rogen, J. Chou, C. Diaz Before I get into the plot and my thoughts on The Green Hornet I want to remind the world of something… This The Green Hornet, NOT Batman, NOT Superman, and NOT Ironman. It’s not a story that is meant to be a blockbuster or […]

Skyline (2010–94 mins) E. Balfour, Scottie Thompson It’s no big secret that I am a fan of Sci-Fi and Fantasy movies, games, and TV, so when I go to watch new ones in these genres I tend to give them a notch up immediately before even starting to watch. I hadn’t heard much about Skyline […]

Today as the Stanley Cup playoffs start to get to the nitty gritty, being down to the final four, I will finish the end of season grading for the Carolina Hurricanes forwards. This includes the new stud on the block Jeff Skinner, and the captain himself Eric Staal. But why wait let’s hop right in! […]

Before I post the video of Mikael Granlund’s amazing goal at the world tournament I want to pass along some devastating news. This evening I saw the story about Derek Boogaard found dead in his home, at this time no mention of the cause of his death. He may have been a goon and he […]

Winter’s Bone (2010– 100 mins)  J. Lawrence, J. Hawkes As has been the theme over the last couple of weeks, I have again grabbed ANOTHER best picture nominee to watch this past weekend. It seems like a never ending affair but that’s what happens when they nominate TEN movies for the big award. This time […]

Ok so that’s only slightly an eggageration. Yes, it’s only 3 or 4 LONG weeks away, but my God Green Lantern is going to kick ass. Here’s another trailer for it. A bunch of it is the same and yet, a bunch of it is new. June 17th can’t get here soon enough!
