Review: Disney-Pixar’s ‘Cars 2’ Starring Owen Wilson, Larry the Cable Guy, Michael Caine

Posted: June 24, 2011 at 4:26 pm   /   Local, Tom O'Keefe Movie Reviews

As a child I was a constant source of academic disappointment to my parents; a perennial underachiever. I didn’t get bad grades, mind you. I was solid B-student. Sure, I could have gotten an “A” with a modicum of effort but if I could pull a “B” (or the occasional “C”) with little to no […]

The Grindhouse faux trailer turned feature length grind house film fits in perfectly with its predecessors, Planet Terror and Death Proof.  The film is just as over the top, gory, and ludicrous as those that aforementioned double feature and is filled with same game talent beyond […]

Wayback Wednesday – “The Lion King”

Posted: March 3, 2010 at 11:59 pm   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews
