‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians’ International Trailer

Posted: November 19, 2009 at 12:34 pm   /   Local, Movie News

Another day and another new trailer for Percy Jackson.  I’m a bit of a mythology buff, and the concept seems pretty cool. It still seems that Columbus is trying to recreate Harry Potter again after leaving the series after two films. He seems to be drawing from that series quite a bit in the look […]

‘Grown Ups’ Teaser Trailer starring Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, Kevin James, and Rob Schneider

Posted: November 17, 2009 at 2:31 pm   /   Local, Movie News

This feels like an early 90s reunion of SNL, with the exception of Kevin James. It is hard to believe that Rock and Sandler once worked together on the popular sketch show, and even harder to believe they were let go. Now, both Rock and Sandler are two of the biggest names in comedy. Spade […]

Reynolds and Faris to reunite in ‘TMI’

Posted: November 17, 2009 at 1:40 pm   /   Local, Movie News

I went through Anna Faris’ list of credit credits on IMDB, to see if there was a single role I enjoyed her in. I was surprised that there were a few that I could stand her in, but nothing really endeared me to her. Reynolds is on the other side of the fence. I like […]

‘Nine’ Feature HD Trailer

Posted: November 17, 2009 at 1:01 pm   /   Local, Movie News

I think I might be a bit of a pessimist when it comes to film going audiences. Which is a bit weird, because I tend to be overly optimistic about many things in my life. It just seems that I can tell with the American movie going audience is going to latch onto something. I […]

Coco Before Chanel

Posted: November 13, 2009 at 4:28 am   /   Local, Movie Reviews

Anne Fontaine enlists Audrey Tautou to star in this solid, if run of the mill, biopic that doesn’t do a whole lot that is interesting or different but has great performances from all three of its leads and is a quite remarkable story surrounding the rise of Coco Chanel. Starting off as a singer at […]

This is the second time Richard Curtis is directing a film, but you’d be surprised at what he has been involved with.  He has worked as writer or producer (on some both) on such films as Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill, Bridget Jones’ Diary, and Love Actually. His directorial debut was Love Actually, […]

2012

Posted: November 12, 2009 at 11:59 pm   /   Local, Movie Reviews

Roland Emmerich’s latest is a good fun premise and starts off as an entertaining little disaster movie quickly dives into head scratching plot holes and absurdity that doesn’t make sense at any turn. (Spoilers throughout, sorry they must be discussed) The plot of the film revolves around the supposed end of the world predicted in […]
