Forgetting Sarah Marshall Was Actually Funny!

Monday, November 3, 2008

Hi all… Forgetting Sarah Marshall was released to theaters on April 18, 2008, and just came to DVD at the end of September, so I’m just a little late reviewing this one. Yes, I’m probably late to this party of finally figuring out that this movie was actually funny, but hey… at least I showed [...]

Movie Review: Charlie Wilson’s War (2007)

Hey there… Had a chance to watch Charlie Wilson’s War last night. I avoided it at the theater when it was released because I wrongly assumed it was “just another Iraq or war-themed movie.” Boy was I wrong. Charlie Wilson’s War is based on a book of the same name written by George Crile, documenting the involvement [...]

Hey all… If you’re in the mood for mindless entertainment, today is a good day. I had a chance to see Death Race today. If you don’t know the history of this movie, then let me fill you in a little… in 1975, Roger Corman produced Death Race 2000, which starred David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone [...]

Hey all… Do you ever go to a movie after actually getting bitten by the hype and wonder why the heck you were there? I had a chance to go see Tropic Thunder this week. After the advertising blitz and initial reviews, I was expecting to laugh my backside off. Hoping to, actually. Did that happen? Not [...]

Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden - Find it August 26th!

Hey all… In 2004, Morgan Spurlock “Super Sized” us (against our will, I might add) and showed what a steady diet of McDonald’s can do for your girlish figure (not to mention your health). It took me days (weeks? months?) before I was able to shake those images and consume another Quarter Pounder with Cheese. However, in [...]

Hi all… If your favorite scene of a movie involves a group of CGI Yeti kicking a field goal with a Chinese soldier for the ball… something’s wrong. First… Luke Ford as Alex O’Connell? How in the heck could Rick (Brendan Fraser, whom I like) and Evie O’Connell have a son in College? Huh? Next… Maria Bello as [...]

Stargate: Continuum is Smart Sci-fi? What gives??

Hey all… It’s no secret that I’m a science fiction and fantasy guy. Have been since I was first introduced to Robert Heinlein and JRR Tolkien many many moons ago… So it shouldn’t be too shocking that I’m a fan of the Stargate series. From the original movie with James Spader and Kurt Russell in 1994 [...]

Hey there… First of all, I just have to say that this movie wasn’t as bad as I was led to believe. Sure it’s over the top in places and a bunch of baloney as far as historical facts go… But it wasn’t THAT bad… Come on! Roland Emmerich delivers a frivolous romp through Hollywood history for [...]
