92: ‘The Age of Adeline’ Starring Blake Lively, Michiel Huisman, Harrison Ford
As we wait for Avengers: Age of Ultron we must first be subjected to once last Spring chick-flick – The Age of Adeline. Blake Lively stars as the titular Adaline. (Calm down, pervs. “Titular” means “in the title”.) Adeline is a woman who can’t age. The poor creature is 107 but trapped in the body […]
This Week on Blu-Ray and DVD (August 14, 2012)
The Raid: Redemption I have been waiting for this flick to come out for what seems forever. I was unable to catch it in theaters, but my brother has not stopped raving about it since he saw it. The film currently sits at an 84% fresh rating on RottenTomatoes with some critics citing that it […]
Movie Review: Oliver Stone’s ‘Savages’ Starring Taylor Kitsch, Aaron Johnson, Blake Lively
Oliver Stone returns to his roots, with subject matter somewhat reminiscent of Scarface and Natural Born Killers. But Savages is unique enough to stand on its own, not fitting perfectly into one genre or the other.

This is an origin story for the DC Comics property and all of the classic tropes will be found here. A talented, […]
Movie Review: “Green Lantern” Starring Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively (Gossip Girl)
I have to admit that growing up, Green Lantern was not my favorite superhero. I tend to lean more towards the Marvel universe, with Batman almost evening things out on the DC side. So I wasn’t quite sure of what to expect of a “Green Lantern” movie starring Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively. But I […]

NEW IMAGES FROM GREEN LANTERN
I had very high hopes for GREEN LANTERN. I like Martin Campbell as a director. Ryan Reynolds can portray a funny, action hero really well. Blake Lively is easy on the eyes. Mark Strong as Sinestro is perfect. But then the trailer came out, and I have been very apprehensive since. Yeah, the newer footage […]
The Hidden Gem – “Green Lantern: First Flight”
“The Hidden Gem” is all about my personal favorite films. And while some of the films I discuss may not be hidden to most movie fans, they are hidden to a majority of my friends and people that I have talked to. So I want to discuss them for three reasons: 1. Tell you why […]
