What makes the best action movie? Is it balls-to-the-wall chaos? Meditative stories with bursts of adrenaline? A smart, twisting plot? The answer, as evidenced by this list that represents the best action movies of 2012, is clear: there is no single formula to making a great action movie.

Heavily hyped and surrounded by deafening buzz, Les Misérables serves as Tom Hooper’s follow up to the Oscar-winning drama The King’s Speech and as this year’s sole mainstream musical. It is considered a heavyweight in the Best Picture category… but it doesn’t deserve it. Well done, beautifully acted and at times explosive, Les Misérables left me wanting more. Not more of the movie, but a more emotional connection.

Anticipation can be a bitch. Expectations can lead to disappointment. Hype can be a killer. Christopher Nolan’s epic conclusion to his Dark Knight trilogy has to deal with all three nuisances, and he flicks them aside like villain Bane does Batman, the entire Gotham police force and everyone else who makes the mistake of crossing his path.

One more week. One more week until The Dark Knight Rises makes its epic debut. Until July 20, however, you’re going to have to settle for an onslaught of marketing from Warner Bros., as indicated by the release of 10 more movie stills from the highly anticipated action film.

If you haven’t watched it a dozen times by now, watch it again, because it’s epic, amazing and everything in between.

Just when you thought the new Amazing Spider-Man movie poster was the coolest comic book news this weekend, Warner Brothers unleashes an awesome new movie poster for its tentpole 2012 superhero movie The Dark Knight Rises.

There are few things more touching than the classic romantic tale where a man meets a woman, and that man is a Viagra salesperson.

Anne Hathaway nearly earned herself an Oscar for her stunning performance in Rachel Getting Married, but she also starred in another 2008 movie, the little-known Passengers. A thriller about a young psychologist who is assigned to deal with the survivors of a jet liner crash only to find that the survivors not only have conflicting stories about the events but that they are apparently being hunted by the government, Passengers had potential… But there’s a reason why no one has heard of this movie.
Passengers barely received a theatrical release and almost no promotion; the trailers were downright terrible. Still, the movie has a strong cast including Hathaway, Patrick Wilson and a few others, so it was worth a chance – though I only watched it because Sony sent me the DVD to review. Unfortunately, Passengers is exactly what I suspected; a forgettable, dull thriller.
