Posted: April 5, 2019 at 8:36 am   /   Movie Reviews

I have a confession to make. I’m a little burned out on superhero movies. Now, hear me out. It’s not that I don’t enjoy them. They’re still pretty entertaining, and more often than not, I’ll still go to a theater to see them before they come out on Blu Ray. But I no longer really […]

There’s no doubt about it – Matthew Vaughn absolutely knows how to direct a stylish and entertaining film.

Not sure how much the trailer is giving away, but it looks like James McAvoy’s cop, and Mark Strong’s criminal in Welcome to the Punch will end up working together. Looks like a great action thriller, with a bit of British flare. The script was voted as one of Britain’s best unproduced scripts in 2010. […]

If you have seen Academy Award-winning best picture The Hurt Locker, you know that Kathryn Bigelow is no stranger to slow-building tension. Somewhere between Point Break and 2008, the Oscar-winning director went from being good to great. And her streak certainly continues with Zero Dark Thirty.

Warner Brothers and DC Still Pushing On With ‘Green Lantern’ Sequel

Posted: June 26, 2011 at 11:33 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

I finally saw GREEN LANTERN a couple of days ago.  The nice thing was that I was sufficiently warned.  I read all the negative reviews.  All of the initial excitement for the film had totally went away before sitting down in the theater.  Films are always better with zero expectations.  I have certainly seen worse […]

NEW IMAGES FROM GREEN LANTERN

Posted: April 20, 2011 at 9:41 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

I had very high hopes for GREEN LANTERN.  I like Martin Campbell as a director.  Ryan Reynolds can portray a funny, action hero really well.  Blake Lively is easy on the eyes.  Mark Strong as Sinestro is perfect.  But then the trailer came out, and I have been very apprehensive since.  Yeah, the newer footage […]
