“Dinner for Schmucks,” a remake of the 1998 French comedy Le Dîner de Con (“The Dinner Game”) comes out this Friday. From the trailer, most people know the basic plot: businessmen bring loser types to a dinner party to make fun of them. In anticipation for this film, this weeks top five will be the […]
The year was 1987, and the cinema was graced with a fantastic weekend. Two new releases came out that weekend, The Living Daylights and “The Lost Boys.” It’s easy to get excited for a new James Bond film, and I am personally a fan of Timothy Dalton as Mr. Bond. I just watched “The Lost […]

Jerry Bruckheimer has not had the most successful summer of his career. “Prince of Persia” was not the worst film I have seen so far, but it did not bring in much money either. “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” was also something of a disappointment.

I seem to be switching sides frequently on my interest for “X-Men: First Class.” I am frankly not too excited, because “X-Men: The Last Stand” and “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” were not good. I am excited because Matthew Vaughn, director of “Kick-Ass” and “Layer Cake” is helming this one. I’m not excited because they gave a […]

“Never Let Me Go” is a film that I have not heard of today. So here I give you mine and perhaps your first look at the film directed by Mark Romanek. It stars Keira Knightley, Carey Mulligan, and Andrew Garfield. A story of a woman who, as she reflects on her private school years […]
Daniel Craig is certainly keeping busy while he patiently awaits the fate of the James Bond franchise. He has two films in post-production right now that we will see later next year, Dream House and The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn. He is currently filming Favreau’s new film Cowboys and Aliens. Now […]
I never thought I would see the day where I was excited to see a movie that starred Vanessa Hudgens. But two things were evident when I finished watching this trailer: Zack Snyder, director, knows how to put together a trailer. The first theatrical trailer for 300 remains my favorite trailer of all time. The […]

Tonight the chefs try to teach bachelors with no cooking experience. Better keep the fire extinguisher close by. Pretty Little Liars (ABC Fam […]
