The Very Very Fantastic Mr. Fox

As a true lover of the world of cinematography, I find that the way a film looks can often make up for many flaws. And one of the best directors, still living, that utilizes the power of his camera so beautifully is Wes Anderson. Fantastic Mr. Fox is a story about a family of f… Continue

Oh, New Moon... Why do You Have So Many Fans?

Everyone knows about all the hype and the story. New Moon is a sequel to the movie Twilight from last year at the same time, based on a popular book series by Stephenie Meyer. When the first book came out, i read it in middle school. And I used to like it a lot. Then i grew up and realized what 'selfish bitch' meant and i stopped liking it. I feel… Continue

SAW 6

It's halloween time, so it's time for yet another SAW film. We're now on the 6th part of this series, and i know i'm not the only one who has been watching the slow decline of these films over time. I found those last two that came out almost unbearable if you try to invest any actual interest in the plot. Because it falls into that whole idea wher… Continue

Where the Wild Things Are in IMAX

We all have the desire to scape the real world sometimes. Because... plain and simple. Life is hard. But, how do you explain this to a child? Children are smart... almost too smart. But, they lack wisdom and experience at the same time. So, when a piece of work comes out that is able to explain this to them just right... It deserves to be looked at… Continue

Jennifer's Body (the movie)

The vampire trend is very obvious... In movies, books, and even events there seems to be a prominent trend towards vampires. But, it's odd in the way they have changed the best, in most cases. In our society dark creatures with evil twisted faces dripping with blood seem to lack mass appeal. Now, to satisfy our generation, they have to be more like… Continue

District 9 (the movie)

A time comes every once and a while for the movie gods to throw a sci fi work our way. We need our fix of aliens, fights with crazy weaponry, and some human government officials to hate. But, not as often, do we see all of that piled on top of an amazing storylin… Continue

500 Days of Summer (the movie)

Every once and a while, a film comes around that you have to love. No matter how stubborn you are, you complain all you want, you love it anyway. I, myself, hate romance stories. As do many others... They fall under similar story pieces and cliches. A guy meets a girl, an… Continue

Harry Potter 6: The Half Blood Prince

I haven't read the book, but I went into the film knowing what was going to happen. So, there were no surprises for me for the most part. But, I have to say that I was never bored and I had a great time watching this. As I am with all the films, I get what I expect and am always happy when i leave. The amazing special effects, the engrossing story… Continue

Bruno (the movie)

I have respect for Sacha Baron Cohen. There are many people out in the acting world that spend most of their time worrying about the way they appear to the public. But, Cohen is one person who honestly, doesn't care what others think of him. No shame at all (and that can definitely be seen in this movie). He uses his comedy effectively for the mo… Continue

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen (movie in IMAX)

The first Transformers was lackluster of a number of reasons. It fell behind in acting, story, and plot. But, it did excel in the effects and appearance of the whole thing. Michael Bay is a director, who through his own style of humor 'n such, as created his own franchise and persona through film. Many have done so in the past, but Bay is the one w… Continue

Drag Me To Hell (the movie)

I love Evil Dead 1 and 2 (mostly 2). Spiderman 3 never happened. It doesn't exist. Basically, I am a Raimi fan. This was one of the funniest movies ever! Go see it, you need to put some humor in your sad little life. :P There is a girl named Christine Brown (Ali Lohman... i think) who denies this old gypsy lady an extension on the loan for her hou… Continue

Up (movie in IMAX 3D)

There is a problem I have with film and the way people view it. It falls under the Oscars and award shows like it (mostly referring to the US). They never approach movies that are "different" from the "norm" when they pick films to nominate. Comic book movies (this was he first year, and it should have got more), most comedies, and animated movies… Continue

Year One (the movie)

There were 3 reasons I wanted to see this movie. 1. David Cross 2. Paul Rudd 3. Bill Hader I knew it was going to be bad just based on the trailer. But, I did expect a little more out of it than what I got. This one was just bad. But, I did get a free ticket. So, I'm not in too much pain at the moment. This film was about 2 caveman (Michael Cera… Continue

Monsters V. Aliens (the movie in 3D)

Dreamworks has done some pretty amazing stuff like Tropic Thunder, Shrek, and Cast Away. So, even though they have made a few mistakes in the past as well, I trust and their movies. I don't know what is more nerdy... seeing the animated movie about aliens on a date, or be… Continue
