Red Tails Exceeds Low Expectations

May 22nd, 2012
red-tails

Don’t judge a book by its cover. The theme runs strong through Red Tails, about the Tuskegee Airmen in World War II who faced not only hardship from the Nazis but more-than-simmering racism from within their own ranks. The common phrase can also be said about the movie itself, which, while far from being a great war movie, is a surprisingly entertaining one.

chronicle

Three Seattle teenagers develop super powers and do wonderful things with them, like scaring little girls and playing practical jokes on unsuspecting strangers, in the entertaining but far from great sci-fi action film Chronicle. Oh, and one gets corrupted by his newfound powers and takes it out on the Emerald City and all those who stand in his way.

Seattle Chronicles: Six Classic Seattle Movies

May 14th, 2012
chronicle-space-needle

As movie viewers, we are most accustomed to blockbuster movie settings like the sprawling landscapes of the Midwest or the bright city lights of New York and Los Angeles. In fact, the superhero genre has even gone a step further by giving birth to faux cities like Metropolis and Gotham City. But up in the Pacific Northwest lies beautiful but less-popular Seattle, a gem that has played host to many popular flicks.

Now on Blu-ray: Underworld Awakening Movie Review

May 8th, 2012
underworld-awakening

The last time I saw Kate Beckinsale in skintight black leather was… in my dreams… but before that, it was in Underworld: Evolution, the second film in the stylized franchise about vampires, werewolves and soft core porn. After merely a cameo appearance in the third, nearly series-slaying Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, Beckinsale, having not been in a better movie since, is back as Selene, and everything else is back to the way they were.

The Avengers Shatters Box Office Records

May 6th, 2012

Thor’s hammer, Iron Man’s steel, the Hulk’s smash, Captain America’s patriotism and Black Widow’s cleavage combined for quite a wallop over the weekend as The Avengers opened to $200.3 million at the domestic box office over the weekend, according to BoxOffice.com. That blows past the $169.2 record held by last year’s Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, and sets a whole new benchmark for what defines a blockbuster.

A $200 million opening!

Headhunters Movie Review: See It Now

April 27th, 2012
headhunters-movie

Headhunters is a pulse-pounding nonstop action thrill ride with plenty of intrigue thrown in.  The middle 45 minutes of this film is by far the most fun I’ve had at the movies all year.

It may be early in the year to be making a list like this, but we are only 1/4 of the way through 2012 and most of the previews I have seen for summer blockbusters have been lame to say the least. Lets take a look at this year’s worst movie trailers so far:

April 18th, 2012
avengers-black-widow

You probably haven’t heard, but there’s this small indie film called The Avengers debuting in a few theaters on May 4. Yeah. It’ll probably make a few million dollars if it’s lucky. Its overseas gross will be pretty paltry. Nonetheless, this entity called Marvel seems to be obsessed with marketing this movie, to the point
where they’ve released four new movie clips from the superhero film – and two new featurettes.

‘Lockout’ is Funny, but It Isn’t a Comedy

April 13th, 2012
lockout-guy-pearce

Luc Besson sat down one day and came up with an original idea: The President’s daughter is going to be taken hostage by a bunch of prisoners in a futuristic space prison. And then the President is going to send in one lone man, a crude, unlikable guy who cares about no one but himself, but who can kick some major convict ass. Lockout is "based upon an original idea by Luc Besson", but when did an original idea mean taking Escape from New York, making it stupid and changing the location to space?
