When is okay to kill your marketing team?
When can you hunt down and assassinate the entire department?
When can you get the greenlight to build a time machine and dispatch killing machines from the future to stalk and murder each and every one of them?
If you’re McG or anyone who worked on the production of… Continue
We all (fans and critics) loved Batman Begins, but some hated Christian Bale's "Batman Voice." With the explosive release of The Dark Knight, folks asked again. What's with the voice?
Christian Bale portrays Bruce Wayne and his aggressive vigilante alter-ego Batman in the two… Continue

The Taking of Pelham 123
I’ll just say it: I am really not that bothered about remakes. Everyone keeps throwing this big hoop-la about how remakes “destroy” the original films and how it’s “the death of Hollywood”. Advice to the people who do… Continue
Now I know that Public Enemies has been out for quite a while on your side of the globe, but here in Holland we just had the opening night yesterday(lame huh), and I thought I'd share some of my thoughts with you guys. Maybe not that interesting after all the Comic-Con madness, but hey maybe there are some other Dutchies here on the site who might like to hear about the movie.
What really struck me after watching the film is that while it's not really bad (most of it is technically pretty convi… Continue

Public Enemies tells the story of the life of John Dillinger and his brief but well known fame as a bank robber. It is an almost 2 hour and a half movie but its length doesn't make it tiresome, in fact it is a very interesting drama full of action that will catch you from the very first minute and will keep you on the edge of your seat. the story is very interesting and the plot very well developed. The movie is perfectly set in the 1930's with an excellent costume design from that age. The cast… Continue

Been a while since I've posted any reviews, let alone any reviews that were actual films. Well, let me make it clear that the D-Man is back in business!
Anyway, for my glorious comeback into the world of movie reviews, I've chosen to review Public Enemies. The film is directed by Michael Mann, and stars Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. The film is about the criminal career of notorious bank robber and public enemy #1. John Dillinger (Depp) and the efforts of FBI agent Melvin Purvis (Bale) to bri… Continue

SPOILER ALERT:
The Machinist is a bad knock-off of Fight Club and American Psycho, and I'm not just saying that because Christian Bale is in it. What's great about the multiple personality "slash" psycho scenario is that when it's done well, it'll blow peoples' minds. There's no solid plot to go along with the movie, so all it is is a guessing game as to when to expect the next twist, which is really cool, when you have a fucking plot. I found myself getting really bored wit… Continue

He robbed banks, he walked into police stations just for the hell of it, and he escaped prison like it was an everyday thing. John Dillinger was one of those guys. In an era where criminality was at an all time high, a man like Dillinger robbed banks with ease. But it wasn't just fo… Continue
Before you wet yourself thinking that this is a review for the new Terminator movie, it's not. It's the mandatory game tie-in that accompanies any summer movie that had a budget of more than $12. For those of you looking for a kick-ass game that seamlessly blends in with the movie...leave now, you'll only find disappointment here.
Supposedly the game was in development by the g… Continue
He launches another very poorly constructed review of McG's latest film, which I did like. I don't think it's great, it's definitely flawed, but it's good. Anyway, check this out on YouTube and read some of the ridiculous comments his supporters leave. This guy attracts some retarded fans.
First off, he is scarcely making a review here. He's just saying: "I was right, the movie sucks, here are the one sentence review summaries from Rotten Tomatoes, you all who liked it are id… Continue

Keaton is NOT a better Batman, and it's well past time to get over the horseshit about the "bat-voice." That complaint got old 4 years ago, but I'll get to it… Continue
In preparation for Terminator Salvation I've had myself a Bale-a-thon. These are my top 5 favorite roles by Christian Bale. Some may be quite obvious, but for those of you who haven't seen all of them, here are the ones I most strongly recommend.
5. Bruce Wayne/Batman - In Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, Christian Bale plays millionaire Bruce Wayne, who is Gotham City's masked vigialante by night. But everybody knows that. These might be your favorite Christian Bale movies, but let's admit t… Continue
Before I get into my review, I decided that if I ever do a review that it will be structured in a way where I explain what I 'would have liked to have seen.' Whether I will come up with a catchier phrase later on is unknown.
These reviews, consequently, will always be spoiler heavy.

It is the year 2018 and John Connor is leading a small battalion of resistance fi… Continue

Something that's been bothering me in the field of entertainment for quite some time now's that anything that doesn't debut in theaters or television is never given any shot at award recognition. So much fantastic effort is out there, waiting to be praised, but unfortunately has a tendency be overlooked because of their brief running time of ten minutes or less. But when you think about it, your web videos and full-length feature films have alot in common. In fact, I was stunned how eligible man… Continue
I remember about this time last year. One of my friends said to me, “hey, I hear they’re making a new Terminator?” I was so shocked and excited until he said this, “McG is going to direct it.” Then all I thought was, “you talking about the same McG that made the Charlie’s Angels movies?” I’ll admit I had no faith in this movie after that until that is I heard Batman was going to play John Connor. Sorry I mean Christian Bale a.k.a. Batman. Knowing this, plus this awesome trailer was enough… Continue
