Movie Review: ‘Prisoners’ Starring Hugh Jackman, Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Dano
It’s hard to even fathom what it would be like to lose a child. One might argue that it would be even harder for one of your children to go missing, constantly battling with the thought of where they are and what is happening to them. No closure, just the never-ending struggle of living day […]

‘End of Watch’, Starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña, Delivers
Cop films often end up falling into one of two distinct categories. On one hand, you have the action comedy genre that tends to forgo realism for gunfights and laughs. These tended to give praise to the police officers, even if they were flawed. In the late 80’s and early 90’s, Mel Gibson and Danny […]
Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Source Code
Source Code is a fun and gripping ride that will throw some in the end but after some mulling over I think the film works in almost every capacity. The film is a sci-fi picture that presupposes that the government has created a program, called source code, which will allow them to send someone into […]
Movie Review: “Source Code” Starring Jake Gyylenhall, Michelle Monaghan, Vera Farmiga
“Source Code” is director Duncan Jones’ second feature length film, which once again really pulls the audience into it. Following the success of his 2009 debut “Moon,” Jones brings us back to earth – this time on a Chicago commuter train. But only for 8 minutes at a time, over and over again. And we […]

After the success(?) of Valentine’s Day, director Garry Marshall decided he wants to take on another holiday. This news has been known for awhile, but the man just keeps on adding more names to the growing cast list. Sarah Jessica Parker, Halle Berry, and Zac Efron on being rumored to join the fun. No real […]
Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Love and Other Drugs
Love and Other Drugs is the latest from Ed Zwick and features a couple of great lead performances in a story that does a lot of things well but has a hard time finding a narrative through line. Zwick is a history buff and likes to blend fiction with facts and this is another example […]
Love & Other Drugs
One of the reasons I quit my six-figure salaried job on Wall Street was because I could get unlimited movie passes and an even more exorbitant salary. But really, it was for the love of the movies I’d get to see. Clearly, one of the films I had in mind was Love & Other Drugs. […]
“Source Code” HD Trailer Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Monaghan, and Vera Farmiga
Duncan Jones made one of my favorite films of last year. Moon is a film that not nearly enough people have seen, and it boasts one of the greatest performances of 2009 in Sam Rockwell. Now Jones gives us our first look at his next film, Source Code. I think the trailer looks great. While it […]
