(Nathan M Rose) 3/10/2011 11:11 AM EDT Back in 2008, an indie film director, Catherine Hardwicke, made a big splash in Hollywood with the first film in the Twilight saga. Although not liked by all, her perception of showing teenage angst and true love rocketed the film to stardom and has now become part of Hollywood lore. She tries to strike lightning twice this spring... Read More |
 
(Nathan M Rose) 3/3/2011 10:36 AM EDT Pirates of the Caribbean's director, Gore Verbinski (The Ring), has re-teamed with Johnny Depp (Alice in Wonderland, From Hell), and some other of his pirate gang this year to bring audiences around the world, Rango. Rango is a very strange tale of a lizard (Depp), who after spending a very unusual life in a fish tank, ends up in the Moha... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 2/25/2011 7:57 AM EDT The first I heard of Drive Angry, I was attending Comic Con 2010. The premise seemed likely enough to be a decent film -- Milton (Nicolas Cage; The Rock, Con-Air) breaks out of hell to save his granddaughter and to avenge the death of his daughter. Fast forward eight months to February 25, 2011 -- Drive Angry is released to an audience... Read More |

(Nathan M Rose) 2/10/2011 5:53 PM EDT This timeless classic Romeo and Juliet has been told time and time again in various forms throughout the ages; however, on February 11, 2011, Touchstone pictures tells the story in a new creative fashion, with garden gnomes! The story behind Gnomeo and Juliet is quite simple – Gnomeo and Juliet are in forbidden love, and are trying to ... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 1/27/2011 1:23 PM EDT During the 1980's and1990's, there were two names synonymous with action -- Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone. However, the 21st century arrived, and a new action start needed to fill the shoes left by these two action giants. For a few years, it was a bit of a toss up; but the winner has clearly been names, Jason Statham. &... Read More |

(Nathan M Rose) 1/5/2011 4:07 PM EDT Back in 2007 a movie called Grindhouse hit the theaters. It was directed by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino, and styled in such a way to bring back that nostalgia feeling of the exploitation drive-in classics from the 1970's. In between the films, the filmmakers inserted fake trailers. Such was the case for a B-movie trailer,... Read More |
 
(Nathan M Rose) 12/10/2010 9:50 AM EDT Lets get things straight first...if you are going into the Tourist thinking it is going to be a wild ride like a Jason Bourne film, then you will be sorely disappointed. The Tourist, directed and written by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck, tells the story of Frank Taylor (Johnny Depp), an American tourist, who crosses paths with a stranger ... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 11/9/2010 12:04 PM EDT Rachel McAdams first caught my attention with her performance in the films, Mean Girls, and Red Eye. She shows so much heart in her performances, and that quality continues to shine through in her latest film, "Morning Glory".However, Rachel McAdams, who plays Becky Fuller, isn't alone in creating a fun, lighthearted film. The cast also i... Read More |
