Get Him To The Greek
“Get Him To The Greek” is a spin-off, if you will, of 2008’s “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” written by and starring Jason Segel. In that movie, British comedian Russell Brand played a foul-mouthed rock n’ roller named Aldous Snow. And we loved him for the role. So director Nicholas Stoller has returned to bring us a […]
Splice
Every now and then, there comes along a movie so radical, so brilliant it creates a paradigm shift in the thought process of how a film should be made. And every now and then, there comes along a movie that nearly makes me weep for the sake of humanity. Hello, Splice. Now, I am a […]
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
I went into the theater skeptical of yet another video game movie. Not helping my skepticism was that Jake Gyllenhaal was playing the lead in an action film. To my surprise, Gyllenhaal was not the problem. In fact, I have to say the whole cast did quite well with the flimsy storyline. Prince of Persia: […]
Sex and the City 2
The sequel to Sex and the City on the silver screen excels past the first film, unfortunately that film was a big steaming pile of awfulness, and while this films first act starts off on a fairly right foot it crumbles in it’s final after laboring and dragging through the middle. The film picks up […]
MacGruber
I wasn’t too sure what to expect from MacGruber, to be honest. The skits on SNL were funny, but I couldn’t imagine how they’d turn that into a feature-length film. Additionally, I was already reeling from the news that Megan Fox, the Audrey Hepburn of our day, will no longer be in Transformers 3. Mock […]
Princess Ka’iulani

The Square
The Square is a 2008 Australian film which takes many of its cues from old film noirs of the past. Crime fills the movie based on characters most basic impulses of lust, greed, and revenge. Every single aspect of this film is indebted to the classic noir period of the 40s and 50s. Raymond Yale […]
Letters to Juliet
Note: I will be splitting this review into two separate reviews: one for women, and one for men. The review for men will immediately follow the review for women. First, I have a confession to make. I’m a guy. Now, the fact that I am, in fact, a guy does not preclude me from seeing […]
Just Wright
Whenever I need to enjoy a good fairy tale, I always know going to see any Queen Latifah movie will cure that fix. Her movies always have that sweetness gets the man in the end kind of feel, and you always end up rooting for whatever character she plays. In this film, Latifah plays Leslie […]
