Date Night

Posted: April 9, 2010 at 12:01 am   /   Film, Local, Movie Reviews

“Date Night,” Starring NBC prime-time superstars Steve Carell and Tina Fey is a case of mistaken identity – not only for it’s characters, but for the audience as well. Although full of jokes, and a great comedic cast, there are times that make you wonder about some of the choices. Phil (Steve Carell) and Claire […]

“The Other Guys” Motion Poster Starring Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell

Posted: March 29, 2010 at 10:37 am   /   Local, Movie Trailers

The new motion posters are cool, but they get kind of old after the first time you watch it. They are really just really short teaser trailers. They run on an endless loop which means you either have to mute the volume or leave the page after the first time.  Oh well, still kind of […]

The Lovely Bones – Movie Review

Posted: January 15, 2010 at 8:41 pm   /   Local, Tom O'Keefe Movie Reviews

Based on the runaway bestselling novel, The Lovely Bones tells the story of Susie Salmon (Saoirse Ronan), a 14-year old girl murdered in the early ‘70s.  Susie narrates her story from beyond the grave, not as a ghost story per se, but as an ethereal onlooker; trapped between this life and the next in a […]

The Lovely Bones

Posted: January 15, 2010 at 12:01 am   /   Local, Movie Reviews

Peter Jackson’s latest adaptation is visually stunning but feels like a cliff notes version of the novel and on its own right doesn’t go deep enough into these characters relationships and feelings to connect us as emotionally as possible with the rich material. The story follows the path of Susie Salmon a 14 year old […]

Mark Wahlberg talks a possible ‘Entourage’ film

Posted: December 4, 2009 at 5:34 pm   /   Local, Movie News, Television

I’m really on the fence about this. Entourage is one of my guilty pleasures. I can’t find a reason why I like it, but I do. The storylines are a bit contrived, and the constant stream of guest stars was great at first, but some of them have been plain awful. Not to mention the […]

Date Night HD Trailer

Posted: November 11, 2009 at 6:21 pm   /   Local, Movie News

A movie that involves two people from different NBC shows who happen to be talented? Sure, sign me up. If you liked Steve Carell in Get Smart you’ll probably enjoy him in this as well. This time he actually has an age appropriate love interest who just happens to he his wife. Put Tina Fey […]

The Weather Channel Starts Airing Weather Movies

Posted: October 21, 2009 at 12:58 pm   /   Local, Movie News, Television

I guess having weather related news just wasn’t enough for The Weather Channel. Starting October 30th, the channel will start airing weather themed movies. The first of which is Wolfgang Petersen’s The Perfect Storm. I’m not really sure if this is a good move for the channel. Isn’t the main objective of a channel like […]

We Own the Night

Posted: October 14, 2007 at 10:44 am   /   Local, Movie Reviews

This cop drama is pretty much standard fare across the board story board with nothing we haven’t seen before. I think one thing that took a bit away from me on this movie was that the preview gave way too much away. But anyways, the lead, Joaquin Phoenix, does some great work here and is […]
