This evening I went to a screening of “World War Z,” sponsored by B96 and Paramount pictures. My expectations for the event itself were not high, but I was definitely intrigued with the film from what I’d seen in the trailers. Well, I dare say my expectations were exceeded thrice fold on both accounts. The […]
I’m not a big 3D film person. In fact, I utterly detest it. Including “Jurassic Park” (and excluding virtual theme rides), I’ve only seen “Hugo” and “Avatar” in 3D. I didn’t feel it was necessary for “Hugo,” and felt like I was in one of those video games at the arcade where you wear one […]
Damn, this film was all kinds of messed up. “River’s Edge” is a film about a high school student by the name of John, who strangles his girlfriend Jamie todeath. He disrobes her, (and maybe even more than that), and then proceeds to show off her lifeless body down by the river to his friends–maybe […]
“What can the audience expect to see? A great film; a great story.” Jeremy Irons, you tell no lies. Tonight I saw “Beautiful Creatures.” It was… Well, it was shockingly good. I had no desire to see that film, but the song “Seven Devils” in the previews conned me into it. But it was really […]
I honestly was not expecting to like this movie. I thought the concept seemed lame, given the trailers, and that Hollywood was doing this necrophilia push. But… I liked it. I liked it a lot. It’s a new take on a popular genre, while putting a spin on Romeo and Juliet, the technicalities of vampirism, […]
I just watched “Stand By Me” for the first time ever a few days ago. I liked the film, but the ending just…well at first I thought it sucked. Gordie/the Writer talks about how his friend Chris, who looked out for him and was wanting a way out of the life he was in and […]
Quentin Tarantino fanatic that I am, of course I saw this on Christmas Day upon its release. I’ve been hearing the buzz about this film for about a year and a half–read the screenplay and saw Tarantino and most of the cast at this year’s San Diego Comic Con: And finally, the day came today. […]
So, there are a slew of Christmas films, but I’m going to share with you the best films to watch for the holidays. “Scrooged” is a classic, in my opinion. A modernized spin on an old classic with Bill Murray. I seriously doubt the awesomeness of this adaptation can be recreated (properly). It’s not only […]
