Movie Review: Bad Times at The El Royale starring Jeff Bridges, Cynthia Erivo, Jon Hamm

Posted: October 11, 2018 at 6:23 pm   /   Movie Reviews, Reviews

I really wanted to like this film. In fact, walking out of Bad Times at The El Royale, I was downright angry I didn’t like the film. Sure, there was some good in the film, but overall, writer/director Drew Goddard’s follow-up to the wonderfully-terrifying The Cabin in the Woods is an extreme letdown. One good […]

Film Review: ‘Only the Brave’ Starring Josh Brolin, Miles Teller, Jeff Bridges

Posted: October 20, 2017 at 9:15 am   /   Movie Reviews

Maybe it’s because they don’t fight a physical enemy, but for some reason, movies about firefighters tend to be pretty scarce. Sure, there was Ladder 49, the old classic The Towering Inferno, and of course, Backdraft, perhaps the most highly-regarded firefighter movie of all-time. When they announced that a film was being produced based on […]

New ‘RIPD’ Trailer Starring Ryan Reynolds, Jeff Bridges (Adapted From the Dark Horse Comic Book)

Posted: April 18, 2013 at 8:45 pm   /   Local, Movie Trailers

At first glance you might think that R.I.P.D., which stands for the “Rest in Peace Department,” looks like a Men in Black knockoff. It is easy to see how you would jump to the conclusion after watching the trailer for the Dark Horse Comic Book adaptation. Sure, the main characters are a team comprised of […]

True Grit

Posted: December 22, 2010 at 8:36 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

“True Grit” is the stuff that remakes are made of. Based on the beloved 1969 western starring John Wayne, Joel and Ethan Coen have taken a great story and made a film that surpasses even the original. 14-year-old Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld) is on a mission to track down the man who killed her father […]

Posted: December 22, 2010 at 12:01 am   /   Another Take From Zac, Local

The latest from the Coen Bros., True Grit, is their least odd and most straightforward film to date but there is still plenty of weirdness, laughs, and amazing performances that we expect from these guys in this great film. The film is not a remake of the 1969 John Wayne film of the same name […]

“Tron: Legacy” Movie Review: Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde

Posted: December 17, 2010 at 8:29 am   /   Local, Tom O'Keefe Movie Reviews

Let’s cut right to the chase, shall we? Tron: Legacy is a worthy successor to the original Tron. Unfortunately, the original Tron was a complete snooze-fest that would have been a footnote in the annals of Disney history, were it not for its interesting visuals and the fact that it was one of the earliest […]
