85: ‘CHAPPiE’ Starring Sharlto Copley, Hugh Jackman, Sigourney Weaver
This week Neill Blomkamp returns with RoboCopy… Ummm… I mean Chappie. A movie that our legal department requires us to inform you resembles RoboCop in no way whatsoever (wink, wink, nudge, nudge). So please ignore all of the cops who are robots, and the Peter Weller sound-alike voice work, and that giant evil robot which […]
Movie Review: ‘Chappie’ Starring Sharlto Copley, Dev Patel, Hugh Jackman
Chappie is the latest film by science fiction director, Neill Blomkamp. Blomkamp has been responsible for some the most modern, contemporary sci-fi films to date.

Movie Review: ‘Maleficent’ Starring Angelina Jolie, Elle Fanning
Perspective is a powerful tool. Oftentimes marred by a person’s opinion or emotions, differing perspectives can be deleterious. The inability to maintain the same interpretation of events or words can pit former allies against each other and bring down powerful entities.

Movie Review: ‘Elysium’ Starring Matt Damon, Sharlto Copley, Jodie Foster
Unless you’re South African or were a huge fan of Nike’s Crab commercial, there was probably a pretty good chance that before 2009, you’d never heard of Neill Blomkamp. Hell, I still had to Google his name to make sure I spelled it right. After the release of District 9 though, one of the biggest sleeper hits […]

Jodie Foster, Matt Damon, Sharlto Copley to Star in Neill Blomkamp’s Next Film “Elysium”
Would a studio pick up the follow up film from the director who made District 9? A film from the director who took a mere $30 million and made a film that took in over $115 world wide. A film that would be a follow up to District 9 which was loved by critics and audiences […]

New “A-Team” HD Trailer Featuring Bradley Cooper and Liam Neeson
Alright! This is the trailer I’ve been waiting for. After a “OK” teaser trailer was released, (watch it here) I was a little disappointed. Although, this newest trailer looks awesome. Plenty of action, plenty of humor, and a little shirtless Bradley Cooper for the ladies. Do I think the film will be over the top? […]
