Unstoppable

Posted: November 12, 2010 at 4:20 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

Tony Scott’s second film in a row revolving around trains and starring Denzel Washington, “Unstoppable,” is based on a true story unlike the last. In May of 2001, an unmanned train left Stanley Yard in Walbridge, Ohio and traveled 66 miles while a rescue attempt was planned and executed. Fortunately, for both Scott and Washington, […]

Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Unstoppable

Posted: November 12, 2010 at 12:01 am   /   Another Take From Zac, Local

Tony Scott’s latest, Unstoppable, is a straight forward suspense action thriller that fails to ever live up to the intensity it hopes to create. The plot is simple; a runaway, unmanned, train is barreling through Pennsylvania carrying explosive materials.  It must be stopped before it hits an elevated turn in the middle of a highly […]

The Book of Eli – Movie Review

Posted: January 15, 2010 at 8:38 pm   /   Local, Tom O'Keefe Movie Reviews

Denzel Washington’s latest film The Book of Eli provides me with yet another opportunity to use the phrase “post-apocalyptic”.  (It seems like recently I’ve used it so frequently I’d be well served to give the phrase its own shortcut key.)  It’s been thirty years since “the flash”, presumably a nuclear war of some kind though […]

Taking of Pelham 1 2 3

Posted: June 12, 2009 at 12:01 am   /   Local, Movie Reviews

Tony Scott’s latest with frequent collaborator Denzel Washington is a mediocre affair that is poorly written and can’t even muster much style out of Scott either. Walter Garber is introduced to us as an everyday transit authority civil servant that mans and maintains the New York City subway traffic so that it flows with ease […]
