(Nathan M Rose) 4/7/2011 4:16 PM EDT Back in 1981, an eclectic movie, entitled Arthur, was unleashed on the unsuspecting public, starting Dudley Moore, Liza Minnelli, and John Gielgud.

(Nathan M Rose) 3/11/2011 8:13 AM EDT Every couple of years, the stars align and two large Hollywood studios end up releasing similar films within a year. In the past, it has been volcanos -- 2010-2011 has brought us alien invasions. The first one out of the gate, Skyline, was an attempt to make a glossy high-end invasion film...it failed.

(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) 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 |

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 |
