This is pretty much a Fatal Attraction ripoff. Instead of a stellar cast led by Michael Douglas, Glenn Close and Anne Archer we have Idris Elba, Ali Larter and Beyonce Knowles. Don’t get me wrong on this, since I believe that these actors did an admirable job with what they were given. The trouble is [...]
Let’s get this out of the way first. Yes, I did enjoy this movie. I found it funny, entertaining and heartwarming. You seem surprised! I know that this has been done a half dozen times or more where an adult is given the chance to relive their youth. The fact here is that it has [...]
Big business, sleazy politicians, murder and corruption are the things we read about every day in the newspapers. This is also the story line of State of Play. Congressman Stephen Collins (Ben Affleck) is the chair of the committee overseeing defense spending and he has an aide who is his lead investigator. In addition to her job she [...]
Rules are meant to be broken or so they say. I broke one of my cardinal rules and went to see an animated movie! Be banned to hell thou foul smelling demon! Well, you see it was in 3-D and I happen to be addicted to the pop out of the screen action especially when it is [...]
The best part of this movie for me was the setting. It was filmed in New Orleans and did a great job of showcasing the city’s attributes. If you are a native of ”New Awlins” or a frequent visitor you will enjoy the many scenes that will afford you memories of this beautiful town. I am talking [...]
This is another one of those high school road movies where the two buddies hit the road to find sex and escape danger on the home front. This time out our boys are searching for Playboy Magazine’s Miss March. How did we get to this point, perhaps I should explain. Eugene Bell and Cindi Whithall are [...]
You know it is said that the older you get the quicker time passes. I was reminded of that today when I went to see Race to Witch Mountain. You see, I took my daughters to see the original Escape to Witch Mountain in 1975, thats 34 years ago! Phew! This family film does not [...]
This is a big movie that should be seen on a bigscreen! I was lucky enough to view it at the local IMAX with full digital sound and clarity. What a visiual adventure that was. The story and characters were new to me so I could not compare the film adaptation to the book. It [...]
Oh my gosh, where to start? This story is adapted from the video game Street Fighter. It should have stayed a video game in my opinion. The dialogue is lame and the actors deliver it in much the same fashion. The martial arts action is well choreographed and decently presented by the cast but the [...]
Shawn and Nick are high school football stars who are typically girl crazy as well as just a bit on the loony side. In short, they are normal teenager males! Football season in just around the corner and training camp is staring them in the face. They overhear a cheerleader talking about cheer camp and decide that they should skip [...]
