Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny

Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny is the long awaited cinematic love letter to fans of the D. For those not in the know, Tenacious D is the musical/comedy brain child of Jack Black and Kyle Gass. Formed in the mid 90's and appearing on the grossly underrated Mr. Show as well as their own HBO series... [More]

Casino Royale

It's been four years since the last 007 installment and things have certainly changed a great deal since then. Ian Flemming's creation has been given a major overhaul, and the results are (if you'll forgive me) Smashing! As I'm sure you know the franchise has been given a fresh new face in the perso...

Night of the Living Dead 3D

Night of the Living Dead 3-D opens just in time for...Thanksgiving? What the hell! Why didn't this open Halloween weekend? It hardly matters. Even if it would have opened Halloween weekend, it still wouldn't have made any money. This is actually the second remake of the George A. Romero classic... [More]

Stranger Than Fiction

Stranger Than Fiction is a wonderful, whimsical, surprisingly romantic tale that delves into the mind of a novelist and the soul of her latest book's main character. There are many things to admire about this charming movie, but perhaps the biggest surprise surrounding it is the involvement of a per... [More]

In this second sequel to Tim Allen's holiday blockbuster from 1994, Santa (Tim Allen) goes toe to toe with a jealous Jack Frost (Martin Short). It seems Frost is dismayed because he has yet to receive his own holiday, so with a heart full of deceipt and contempt, he plots to steal Santa's job by mea... [More]

The Devil and Daniel Johnston

I mentioned to Adam that I'd watched The Devil and Daniel Johnston and he asked me if it was as good as New York Doll, and I honestly couldn't believe he'd asked that. New York Doll is far more than just a documentary, it's literally the chronicling of a Miracle and proof of God's existence, it's ve... [More]

Keeping Mum

Keeping Mum is a fun little film, with spot on performances by Maggie Smith, Rowan Atkinson and Kristen Scott Thomas and well why not . . . Patrick Swayze. The quaint charm and tongue-in-cheek foul play might have been a really effective film if not for clumsy direction and heavy-handed screenwritin... [More]

Running With Scissors

It almost invariably turns out badly when one of your favorite books gets turned into a movie. For example one of my favorite books of all time The Shipping News got the full treatment, Kevin Spacey, Cate Blanchett, Julianne Moore and it was the most dreadful experiences I've ever had in a theater....

The Fountain

A friend's father died in a hit-and-run accident as he went to pick up a newspaper while his family waited for him to return to celebrate his 80th birthday. The candles were lit. As far as I am concerned, how auspicious! To die on your birthday is to complete a perfect circle! I'm sure this guarante... [More]

Saw III

Saw III brings the series full circle. Or does it? I'll never tell. At least not in this review. I will say that this latest entry in the gorefest franchise is graphic, and if you're a fan of blood and guts, you won't be disappointed. Is it as strong as the likes of Hostel and The Descent? I'd say n... [More]

The Grudge 2

The Grudge (based on the Asian cinematic sensation Ju-On) made so much money, that a sequel was inevitable. Since I wasn't a fan of the first, I was positively dreading the follow-up. Having said that, as silly and incoherent as The Grudge 2 is, I actually enjoyed it more than the first. As the... [More]

Flags of our Fathers

Flags of Our Fathers is the latest effort from the iconic Clint Eastwood. Following back to back career highlights (Mystic River and Million Dollar Baby), Mr. Eastwood has decided to tackle World War II, and while his effort doesn't pack the same emotional or visceral wallop of Steven Spielberg's ma...

Fast Food Nation

I have not read Eric Schlosser's 2001 best seller "Fast Food Nation" about the meat industry since my life-long diet consists of no meat, fish, fowl, fruits, or vegetables. Director Richard Linklater must have looked at the marketing numbers: Everyone eats fast food. It has a built-in, interested-in... [More]

Catch a Fire

In two weeks I leave for my fourth – and certainly not last – visit to Africa. I will tour Botswana, Zimbabwe (U.S. State Department Travel Warning, issued a year ago, is still in effect), Namibia (birthplace of Shilol Jolie-Pitt), and South Africa. I will be able to assess the dire situation in Zim... [More]

The Prestige

The Prestige is a beautifully shot tale of magic and what it takes to become a master of deception. And like the art form itself, this film is chalk full of sleight of hand trickery that will have you pondering what you've just seen long after you've left the movie theater. What's more, this flick e... [More]
