I Am Slave (2010)

I Am Slave (2010)

When you see the title and see the sad but beautiful black woman on the poster your first inclination will be to write it off as the African American cotton experience retold on a modern set. This is not the case though folks as it is modern day London and the masters aren’t white rednecks from the south, they are brown (Arabic?) aristocrats and the slave...

A Serbian Film (2010)

A Serbian Film (2010)

A Serbian Film felt like Srdjan Spasojevic pulled up an Excel sheet one day, and sat around with a bunch of perverts to come up with all of the most deviant sexual taboos that they could fit into a movie and then drafted a story over it. I was not appalled, I was only slightly disgusted and I was never shocked, I was watching and waiting for the movie to truly...

X-Men: First Class

X-Men: First Class

Forget that other trilogy (with the exception of the fabulous second one) X-Men: First Class has placed itself as the de facto live action translation of the comic book series that we all know of. The writing will blow you away, the characters are true to form, and the production value is splendid especially the frame for frame comparisons of Magneto’s...

Fast Five (2011)

Fast Five (2011)

An excellent job by Vin Diesel and company on this action packed return to form for Fast and Furious series. If you thought that the series was over think again, this reboot has brought back the excitement of the original. Jordana Brewster is slim, tan and absolutely delicious. Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson are JACKED! These two titans clashing took all of the...

I Am Number Four

I Am Number Four

I Am Number Four is an odd choice to make Box Office. The production value, score and special effects seemed more geared towards NBC, FOX or TNT television and the High School in a small town backdrop never seems to do well in major releases. There has always been a problem with the Sci-Fi genre releasing a bunch of turds after every successful nugget. Well...

Sucker Punch

Sucker Punch

Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch was Alice in Wonderland on a landscape of CGI goodness. Judging from the trailers I always us assume that this would be another visual masterpiece similar to that of 300, Sin City, and the other graphic novels turned movies from the past. Emily Browning stars as Baby Doll our Alice in this tale of mental illness delusions and...
