Review: Disney-Pixar’s ‘Cars 2’ Starring Owen Wilson, Larry the Cable Guy, Michael Caine
As a child I was a constant source of academic disappointment to my parents; a perennial underachiever. I didn’t get bad grades, mind you. I was solid B-student. Sure, I could have gotten an “A” with a modicum of effort but if I could pull a “B” (or the occasional “C”) with little to no […]
Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Cars 2
Cars 2 is fun, funny, fast paced, and an exciting spy movie that improves upon the original Cars and has fun with the genre its playing in; while turning in some quality set pieces that a lot of action movies wish they had. The original Cars has grown on me every time I’ve seen it […]
Movie Review — Pixar’s CARS 2 Starring Owen Wilson, Michael Caine, and Larry the Cable Guy
Pixar has created a lot of outstanding films. The TOY STORY trilogy, THE INCREDIBLES, and RATATOUILLE are absolute classics for me. Other Pixar films I have not loved as much. I personally felt that A BUG’S LIFE, MONSTERS INC, and FINDING NEMO were a little too kid friendly. Nothing wrong with it, but I just […]

Movie Review: MIDNIGHT IN PARIS Starring Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams, Marion Cotillard
Woody Allen’s latest film, MIDNIGHT IN PARIS, is a love letter to the famous home of the Eiffel Tower. The opening five minutes shows the beauty of the city with amazing shots of the city’s art, architecture, and people. While watching this opening montage, I questioned whether the rest of the film would be as […]
Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Hall Pass
The latest from the Farrelly Brothers has a bit of an identity crisis, it doesn’t know if it wants to be crude (which rarely works here) or sweet (which does kind of work) and it never finds the right balance. A Hall Pass is a week off from marriage with no consequences for any and […]
Movie Review: HALL PASS Starring Owen Wilson, Jason Sudeikis, Jenna Fischer, Christina Applegate
I was curious about HALL PASS. I’m not sure how else to put it. The trailer looked okay. The premise definitely showed promise. But I am not a huge Owen Wilson supporter, and the Farrelly brothers haven’t done anything good since 1998 with THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY. I left the film having mixed feelings on […]

Another Take By Zac: Film Review: How Do You Know
How Do You Know provides a couple sporadic laughs but is more or less an abysmal failure of a movie at every turn. The story revolves around Lisa, an aging Olympic softball star, who gets cut from Team USA and finds herself trying to figure her life out. Her life happens to run into a […]
