Review: ‘Hysteria’
Starring Hugh Dancy (currently appearing in the wonderful Venus in Fur on Broadway) and Maggie Gyllenhaal, Hysteria is based on the true story of Mortimer Granville and how he came to invent the world’s first electric vibrator.
Review: ‘Men in Black 3’
The good news is that the sequel we’ve all been waiting for (we have, right?), Men in Black 3, doesn’t suck.
Review: ‘Dark Shadows’ Tim Burton & Johnny Depp’s Gothic Miss-terpiece
I’m over the Tim Burton/Johnny Depp Goth Period. Like way over it.
Review: ‘The Raven.’ Nevermore. Please, Nevermore
The Raven, James McTeigue’s fictionalized account of the last days of Edgar Allen Poe’s life, is a complete snooze-fest.
SXSW Review: ’21 Jump Street’
I’m happy to say that the new version of Jump Street doesn’t suck, in fact, it’s hilarious and that’s thanks to – go figure – Channing Tatum.
SXSW Review: ‘God Bless America’
God Bless America is Writer/director Goldthwait at his potential best.
SXSW Review: ‘Safety Not Guaranteed’ But a Great Time Is Promised
Safety Not Guaranteed is a charming, funny, heartfelt and romantic film that is, as of this writing, my hands-down favorite film of the year.
Review: ‘Chronicle’ This!
This film is right up my alley. Since I was a kid, I’ve dreamed of something like this happening to me so I was totally looking forward to this. But, sadly that didn’t happen.
Review: ‘The Woman in Black’
If you’ve been looking for an old-school ghost story, well then this weekend, you’re in luck.
Review: Steven Soderbergh’s ‘Haywire’ is Gut-Punchingly Good
Carano stands literally head-to-toe with any of her counterparts and is equally deadly, if not more so.
Review: ‘Red Tails’ – It Took George Lucas 23 Years To Make This?
George Lucas, recently went on The Daily Show and told host John Stewart that it took 23 years for Red Tails, the story of the Tuskegee Airmen, to get to the big screen.
Review: ‘J. Edgar’
I wanted to like J. Edgar so much… no, I wanted to love it but all I got was a boring history lesson.
Review: Craig Brewer’s ‘Footloose’
Aw crap, another remake. But guess what? With some terrific performances, you can’t go wrong in watching this.
Review: ‘Moneyball’
Brad Pitt might not want to make plans Oscar weekend because I’m betting that he’ll be one of the 5 guys named for Best Actor.
Review: ‘Drive’ is almost the perfect ride
Funny, violent, beautiful and quiet. It’s almost perfect.
Review: ‘Contagion’ Wash Your Hands. Now!
You know, before I begin telling you how much I liked this film about an infectious disease that takes over the globe in a matter of weeks, I have to warn you that you will need to purchase hand sanitizer before you enter the theater.
Review: ‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’
Rise of the Planet of the Apes is not only the best movie of the summer, it’s one of the best movies of the year. As of this writing, it’s definitely in my list of top five films.
Review: “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2”
The film starts right where the first part left off: Voldemort (I’m allowed to say his name out loud now, right?) has the Elder Wand as Harry grieves by the seaside grave of the Dobby the Elf. From the opening credits to the end, the film doesn’t let up.
