He has also been a producer on some of absolutely horrid remakes, i.e. The Hitcher and A Nightmare on Elm Street. So, when I heard he was […]

Movie Review: ‘G.I. Joe: Retaliation’ Starring Channing Tatum, Dwayne Johnson, Bruce Willis

Posted: March 28, 2013 at 6:18 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

I knew I was in trouble when there was 20-minutes of trailers before the film began. Sorry, G.I. Joe fans, but G.I. Joe: Retaliation is a jumbled up, 3-D mess. From the get-go, this film seemed doomed. It’s no secret that this film was due out over the summer, but due to Channing Tatum blowing […]

‘Fast and Furious 6’ Extended HD Trailer Starring Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson

Posted: February 25, 2013 at 11:51 pm   /   Local, Movie Trailers

The Fast and the Furious is a guilty pleasure for me. It’s Point Break on land instead of water, with suped up rides and high octane car chases. What isn’t there to like? The first few movies were fun, and although I didn’t get into Tokyo Drift too much, I really enjoyed Fast Five. So […]

Blu-Ray Releases of the Week – ‘John Carter,’ ‘Journey 2: The Mysterious Island,’ ‘Safe House’ and More

Posted: June 5, 2012 at 9:58 am   /   DVD News, Local

Lots of movies hitting store shelves today, and in my opinion, lots of movies that would be good rentals rather than a good addition to your at home collection.  You may disagree.  I know a couple of people headed out to pick up the first sci-fi epic on the list today, and others may just […]
