AVP-R is that classic case of what happens when you let fans direct a film. Maybe the pressure to make a bloodier, scarier, and more action-packed follow-up to the original movie got to be too much for the directing Strause Brothers. Maybe it’s the writer’s fault (I hear that when in [...]

When the Taliban outlawed kite-flying in Afghanistan, like everybody else I thought: “Gee, that’s cold.” But this movie forced me to face the fact that the Afghan people had turned kite-flying into a vicious blood-sport. Basically the idea is to wrap your string around the opponent’s string and metaphorically rip his [...]

I guess for what would be to add holiday cheers and gross outs, Johnny Knoxville and the boys give us Jackass Number 2.5 for free online until the end of the year. Very generous of them to give the fans a free nugget and the move also gives viewers a chance to [...]

In this romantic-comedy, Toni Collette and Cameron Diaz star as two sisters that are in the midst of changing their lives via shoes, mostly Collette’s. From dads, to mothers to friends, the amount of personalities in this film is amazing and relatable and you will enjoy this movie. “In Her Shoes” [...]

There isn’t enough Cabernet Sauvignon to make me watch this again. Please why Nicolas Cage? No more please! Your monotone voice and the beady eyes, they haunt me at night, or is that my cat? “National Treasure” starts with a history lesson with a grandfather and grandson. Ok [...]

I don’t get what all the religious leaders are all worked up about with this movie. The same thing happened when HARRY POTTER came out. I guess getting kids to read nowadays isn’t cool, since movies like this and CHRONICLES OF NARNIA have sparked not only an interest in the flicks, [...]

This film delivers in the new category of vacuous, misrepresentative works of pseudo-non-fiction. Sometime documentary director and one-time narrative director George Hickenlooper’s (this is his actual name) look at “Factory Girl” Edie Sedgwick is notable for how superficial and banal he can make the work of an artistic genius appear.

What do you get when you combine a skittish Serbian, with a clean cut American construction designer? A movie that doesn’t deserve color even if they had it back then! Irena Dubrovna meets Oliver Reed in a zoo where no one has heard of natural habitats. The animals pace back [...]
