Joy Ride 3: Road Kill

(Michelle Koesten) 7/7/2014 9:06 AM EDT
Ah, what can I say other than I just watched another really terrible movie! This one was just bad, bad, bad--- well, unless you're are a teenager into the horror genre. The original, which I haven't seen, or should say don't remember seeing, came out in 2001 and starred well known actors Steve Zahn, Paul Walker, and Leelee Sobieski. It was wr... Read More

Earth To Echo

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 7/2/2014 12:10 AM EDT
What happens when you cross an alien with "The Blair witch project" film style and the latest social media? You get this generation's version of "ET: The Extraterrestrial" –"Earth to Echo". Earth to echo is set up as video blog ("fount footage") narrated by Tuck played by actor, ... Read More

The Grand Budapest Hotel

(Sean Ferguson) 6/30/2014 3:41 PM EDT
Looking for a wacky place to stay for the evening? If you're looking for romance it could be found at the Regent Beverly Wilshire (Pretty Woman), or are you looking for something more edgier? The Hotel Mon Signor (Four Rooms) may have some vacancy's, I know theres always room at the Bates Motel, but I wouldn't advise staying there! The O... Read More

Winter's Tale

(Sean Ferguson) 6/24/2014 3:48 PM EDT
Once Upon A Time… That is the way these stories start. It doesn't matter how old you are. Whether you are in love or not, male or female, we have all come to appreciate a good fairytale at some point in our lives. Each generation has one that they hold on to from their youth or perspective. But the rarest of them all is a live romantic ... Read More

300: Rise Of An Empire

(Marco Chacon) 6/20/2014 11:04 AM EDT
In 2006, Zach Snyder showed us that even if he wasn't necessarily a genius innovator in terms of narratives (he does some of his best work with other people's properties), he was an innovative film-maker in terms of technique. His adaptation of Frank Miller's super-stylized (every page is a splash-page) 300--the story of the Greek battl... Read More

Non-Stop

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 6/13/2014 11:03 AM EDT
Liam Neeson (Taken, A Million Ways To Die In The West) plays Federal air Marshal William Marks in the Blu-ray release of Non-Stop, an action thriller that will keep you guessing for most of the hour and forty five minute running time. While the film feeds into our fears in a post 9/11 world, for Agent Marks, it's just another day at the offic... Read More

Alexander, The Ultimate Cut (10th Anniversary Edition)

Historically, most of us are familiar with the name Alexander the Great. Having succeeded his father to the throne at age twenty, he fought battles for power and control from his Greek kingdom of Macedonia throughout Persia, Egypt and Asia, creating one of the largest empires in ancient times.One of the latest movies about him, made by ...

22 Jump Street

(Nathan M Rose) 6/12/2014 10:40 AM EDT
The boys are back in school for another round of parody comedic action fun in 22 Jump Street, starring Jonah Hill (Superbad, Wolf on Wall Street) and Channing Tatum (G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, Haywire). The first film, 21 Jump Street, based on the 80s television show of the same name, was a smash success by taking a serious drama show and making ... Read More

Robocop

(Marco Chacon) 6/9/2014 4:20 PM EDT
Remakes of classic science fiction movies are usually more hit than miss because good science fiction manages a timelessness that doesn't demand a remake. Yes, special effects have come a long way—but leaving out the added stuff, did the refresh of Star Wars really help it? I don't think so. The original took us to a galaxy far, far away... Read More
