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

Tom O’Keefe Reviews ‘The Hunger Games’ Starring Jennifer Lawrence, Woody Harrelson, Josh Hutcherson
Every year in the country of Panem, The Hunger Games are held. Panem is a dystopian state that arose from the ruins of what was once North America. Consisting of 12 Districts, each region is required by law to send two “Tributes,” a randomly selected boy and girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen, […]
Movie Review: ‘The Hunger Games’ Starring Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth
When I first heard about the furor over a book franchise called “The Hunger Games,” I cringed. Young teenagers and women fawning over a fantasy/science fiction book series? I immediately thought of “Twilight” and the horror that that series has wrought on the self-confidence of men everywhere not named Robert Pattinson or Taylor Lautner. I was […]
Movie Review: ‘Journey 2: The Mysterious Island’ Starring Dwayne Johnson, Josh Hutcherson, Vanessa Hudgens
Journey 2: The Mysterious Island takes place a few years after Journey to the Center of the Earth, and gives us an incredible trip into the world of Jules Verne.

Another Take By Zac: Film Review: The Kids Are All Right
The Kids Are All Right is a unique and funny dramedy that is driven by its excellent acting on all fronts. Following a pair of siblings born from the same sperm donor but were each birthed by their separate moms, we pick up just after the oldest, Joni, has turned 18 and can legally request […]
“Spider-Man” Reboot: Andrew Garfield vs. Josh Hutcherson
I have mixed feelings about a full on reboot of the Spider-Man franchise. I like to see a different take on the characters with new actors and everything, but I was willing to give Sam Raimi one more shot after the abysmal “Spider-Man 3.” Plus, I liked Tobey Maguire in the role. But as we […]
The Kids Are All Right
Every year has them, the “indie” hit that is all the buzz. Most likely your friend with thick rimmed glasses and stylish clothing from Urban Outfitters will tell you what you are missing out on. Slowly this film will seep into common pop culture, and transcend above normal indie fare. Last summer we had both […]
