The Crazies (2010)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0455407/ THE CRAZIES delivered some fantastic scares, fun thrills and took the original to new heights! Now, don’t get me wrong – I really enjoyed the original. But, the old school pace and budget made it challenging to watch at times. This revamp of the original amps things up to 11 and grabs you right out of the gate. Minutes in, the movie takes it’s first turns for the horrid with the baseball scene shown in the … Read entire article »

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0814255/ Chris Columbus puts down the Potter books and moves to another book based film. Riding on the Potter Twilight book-movie money train, PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS managed to entertain immensely. The main difference between what I’ve seen with the Potter and Twilight franchises is no downtime lag in story and pace. This movie rolled along extremely well with fantastic roller coaster action and a fun storyline. As a mythology fan, this movie hit all the … Read entire article »

Well worth a viewing, HOUSE OF THE DEVIL does provide a fun experience for horror lovers. HOUSE is set in the 80s and has an 80s look … Read entire article »

Moon (2009)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1182345/ In today’s big budget, over the top, billion dollar bonanza movie world, it’s nice to see a smaller range movie do so well with critics and at the box office without turning to art house ideals or “mumblecore” antics. MOON stars Sam Rockwell as Sam Bell, the lone occupant of a moon based fuel mining station. Kevin Spacey voices the station’s computer. While Duncan Jones’ film almost reads as a play, it never drags and manages … Read entire article »

How to Steal a Million (1966)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060522/ This film was a delight. Now, don’t bother watching it if you don’t find films of the 60s endearing and sweet and fun – you will not enjoy this film. However, for those like me who love the films of this era, HOW TO STEAL A MILLION was a fun vacation from the hustle and bustle of some of todays cinematic efforts. A classic robbery film, MILLION doesn’t have blood, swearing or ladies running around in … Read entire article »

Well, Al Pacino and John Cazale are having one of those days in DOG DAY AFTERNOON and it’s just going to get worse. Sonny and Sal are going to rob a bank. It seems easy enough – they have guns, a plan of action, and a fool … Read entire article »

Rachel Getting Married
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1084950/ Directed by Jonathan Demme When I watched Rachel Getting Married the first time, it ran over me like water. It wasn’t that I didn’t like it, it was just a little more than I thought it was going to be and, frankly, it bummed me out a bit. I thought I was in for a comedy. Something along the lines of Father of the Bride that would have me giggling, laughing, and a little misty at … Read entire article »
