Despicable Me
Despicable Me is a bland effort around an interesting idea that barely salvages itself from travesty with a pretty decent finale. The film follows Gru, a villain of the world who hasn’t had a note worthy diabolical scheme in some time. Added to this he has been recently upstaged by a young and upcoming villain, […]
Roger Qbert Reviews “MacGruber”
Saturday Night Live’s contribution to cinema is a spotty one. After the goldmine of the first Wayne’s World, Lorne Michaels seemingly began rushing every character that ever appeared twice into pre-production. (It’s long been rumored that Mike Myers, after seeing how much money Wayne’s World made, deliberately kept Austin Powers to himself since creating him […]
MacGruber
I wasn’t too sure what to expect from MacGruber, to be honest. The skits on SNL were funny, but I couldn’t imagine how they’d turn that into a feature-length film. Additionally, I was already reeling from the news that Megan Fox, the Audrey Hepburn of our day, will no longer be in Transformers 3. Mock […]

New “MacGruber” Red Band Trailer
Up until this point I had been pleasantly surprised at the promotional items that had come out for MacGruber. The trailers have been top notch, but this one looks like a silly trailer that they used to put before VHS tapes when I was a kid. Which in all honesty, might have been what they […]
SNL’s ‘MacGruber’ Film – Red Band Trailer
When I first heard there was going to be a MacGruber movie based off of the semi-popular Will Forte SNL skit, I was in shock. How were they going to take a one gag joke, and make it into an entire movie? Then I started to think that it had worked for Wayne’s World, why […]

Extract
The latest from Mike Judge is a big improvement over his last film, Idiocracy, but doesn’t approach the status of his most famous film, Office Space. Judge turns the limelight this time on the boss instead of the worker, and while funny we find out the working man is much funnier. Extract takes us into […]
