Film Review: ’12 Strong’ Starring Chris Hemsworth, Michael Shannon, Michael Peña
I admit it, I’m a sucker for movies based on true events. Sure, there are usually a lot of liberties taken with the truth, with some movies distorting the truth so much they hardly resemble real life, but much of the time, we can at least draw concepts and ideas and appreciate what the characters […]
‘Man of Steel’ Review From a Superman and Comic Book Fan
I have been waiting for DC Comics and Warner Brother’s kick off to their own cinematic universe and that day is finally here. Finally, Superman is back in Man of Steel from director Zack Snyder. The film takes a completely different approach to the superhero film. The movie focuses more on the “man” rather than the “super”. It’s […]

Antje Traue May Join Michael Shannon As A Villain In MAN OF STEEL
Some people are nervous about MAN OF STEEL. I would assume that most of this hesitation is due to critics of Zak Snyder saying that he is all style and no substance. One can bolster this claim with the recent SUCKER PUNCH. I, on the other hand, am definitely interested in the project, and I’m […]
Jonah Hex
The latest, and possibly most under the radar, comic book film this summer is the adaptation of Jonah Hex and the results are a mixed bag as the films focus seems to be in a lot of wrong places. Hex is a Confederate soldier of some rank but when he turns on his regiment and […]
