The Way Way Back is the definition of a summer movie. The film was great in its execution and shared quite a few similarities to a film that came out not long ago, Kings of Summer. The film focuses on the very fragile and socially complex world of being a young teenager living amidst the […]
Movie Review: ‘Turbo’ Starring Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Michael Peña, Samuel L. Jackson
The first thing you connect with garden snails is usually not speed. So when a movie comes out about a snail who dreams of winning the Indianapolis 500 (yes, the human race car version) it’s pretty intriguing. The fine folks at DreamWorks who brought us Shrek, Antz and How to Train Your Dragon continue to […]
Review: ‘Grown Ups 2’ Starring Adam Sandler and Friends is One of 2013’s Worst Movies
The opening joke of Grown Ups 2 (not opening scene mind you but opening joke) features a deer pissing in Adam Sandler‘s face. I envy that deer. The original Grown Ups reunited Sandler with many of his SNL cohorts including Chris Rock, David Spade, Rob Schneider, Colin Quinn, and Tim Meadows. Kevin James (though not […]
Movie Review: ‘Grown Ups 2’ Starring Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, Kevin James
The first Grown Ups hit theaters some three years ago, and as is the trend is in Hollywood, sequels have become something of an inevitability. Some sequels can stand up on their own merits, while others do absolutely nothing to progress a franchise, but rather bring about negative stigma to it’s name. In the genre of […]

Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Bridesmaids
Bridesmaids is a sweet, honest, kind of sad but often hilarious look at friendship and marriage on the female side of things, led wonderfully by the always great Kristen Wigg. The friendship between Annie and Lillian has been for as long as they can remember and when the later is in line to get married […]
Movie Review: “Bridesmaids” Starring Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, and Rose Byrne
Like any self-respecting pop culture fanatic I have a constant list of predictions on who are set to be big stars. I had been saying for years that Zach Galfianakis would break out, and finally after The Hangover he achieved A-List status that has turned into a cornucopia of roles for the actor. There has […]
