FLASH POINT
The newest Wilson Yip/Donnie Yen actioner gets its American theatrical release today….. Bake Snaker’s the first to see it…
Bourne Today, Extinct Tomorrow
It’s movies like The Bourne Ultimatum and Resident Evil: Extinction that remind me why I go to see movies like 10,000 B.C. in the theater. As much as Bourne looked great on HD-DVD and Resident Evil was wonderful in Blu-ray, I wish I saw them both in theaters. No risk, no reward. It’s great to [...]
The Most Lovable Creature Since…?
…Unfortunately, since CB4. Well, Okay – that’s not true. To be fair, the actual creature CJ7 is extremely awesome. The movie itself is the big problem here…
Top 5 Island Free-For-Alls
Wow, a movie about prisoners forced to fight to the death on an island should not be as good as The Condemned. Maybe it was because it took itself SO seriously. There’s no laughs at all – it’s essentially murder and rape, followed by someone exploding, and all of it “televised” via the internet for [...]
2 Frenchies that win my heart – Regarde Moi & Frontiere(s)
Two films, one from the Rendezvous with French Cinema Series and one from Film Comment Selects Series, both at Lincoln Center, that start off terribly and win me over half way through. Horror fans…please read this review.
No Country For Regis Philbin
I could write about the good stuff, like Jon Stewart was relaxed and pretty amusing, but that’s no fun…
The Oscars Suck
What a surprise. The quality of the opening was worse than what high school kids whip up and post on YouTube, and the fact that a black man made to look like an old Chinese man didn’t win a make-up award is very telling. Don’t get me wrong, Norbit isn’t anything special but considering the [...]
No, Actually, Please Fast-Forward.
I don’t have it in me to write how much i did not enjoy this. But…
Ex Drummer
This is a Must See!!!!! Think Train Spotting with a more sophisticated aesthetic…..
Roger’s Diary of the Dead Review
Tonight I saw a preview screening of Diary of the Dead. What follows is a review containing very mild spoilers and a strong bitter taste. This review was brought to you by Tylenol PM and two bites of a fried catfish filet that smelled and tasted like my fish tank when I’m too lazy to [...]
Terminator than Ever
Best episode yet. I’m stunned. I can’t wait for next week. I’m in love with Lena Headey. I hope this show stays at this pace. I hope we don’t find out about the girl who killed herself, I hope it’s just a weird little diversion that you can ignore, like when you’re dating a girl [...]
Underdog – Greatest Talking Dog Movie Ever!
If you haven’t seen Underdog, you haven’t lived life. I just caught this over the weekend, thanks to the beauty of Blu-ray, and am fully converted to never fearing. Maybe I’m blanking on other talking dog flicks, but who cares, Underdog was awesome.
