The Hurt Locker

Talk about a heart wrenching, gut busting, suspenseful movie! This one is all that and more. I have to tell you that I was on the edge of my seat the entire time and wished that I had a pill for my queasy stomach. I don’t recall a more tense film for the viewer to sit through [...]

Bruno

My, oh my! Sacha Baron Cohen has done it again. If you thought he alienated people with Borat, just you wait! This time out he is an unapologetic gay man out to make a name for himself in the world of show business. It isn’t so much that he is gay as the fact that [...]

Whatever Works

As we are all aware by now, this script was written by Woody Allen some thirty years ago and was to have starred Zero Mostel. Mostel’s death put an end to Allen’s plans and the project was shelved. Until now! Larry David (Curb Your Enthusiasm) steps in as the lonely and grouchy New Yorker, Boris Yelnikoff. [...]

Land Of The Lost

First of all, Will Ferrell is Will Ferrell and you get what you pay for! By that I mean that all of his characters are portrayed in an identical fashion by this one dimensional actor. I am not saying that he isn’t funny. Quite the contrary, he does have his moments. It’s just that you [...]

Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian

I have to admit that I have mixed feelings about this sequel. On the one hand I have a distinct feeling of deja vu since the two films have the same subject and plot with a few differences. The slapping monkeys are back and still slapping as well a Rexie that giant bag of bones [...]

Terminator Salvation

You have just got to love the Terminator movies! Even though they seem to offer “more of the same” they are all entertaining and action packed. This one is no different and if you have enjoyed the preceding movies you should have fun here also. Did I mention action? This movie is jam packed with all [...]

Star Trek

All is well in Fatwayne’s universe – Star Trek is back! And boy, it’s back in a big way! I saw it today in the IMAX format and was totally blown away! I did, however, leave the theater with a slight headache – man was it loud! I have been a fan of Star Trek since [...]
