This film about an anti-superhero has been getting poor reviews. The general concentrate is that the film falls apart in the second half. I would agree that the second half opens up some plot holes. However, I would say that I was able to overlook them and I found Hancock to be a decent film….
I didn’t really decided to see Wanted until just a few weeks ago and I was really expecting more than what I got. The first five minutes showed some Marix-like action scenes that made me excited, but with the exception of the climax, it was a fairly standard action film. I’d say that I probably…
When I was a kid, I remember watching (and liking) reruns of the Get Smart TV show. However, I don’t remember that much other than the basics, such as the shoe phone (I would probably say most of my memories of Don Adams was as the voice of Inspector Gadget). I would say that my…
This Canadian film was, obviously, the stand out film at last year’s Toronto Film Festival, in which it sold out in record time. As such, despite its profane title, I decided that I had to see the film to see what all the fuss was about. The film is a sex comedy with a very…
It’s a bit of a risk rebooting a franchise in only it’s second film, but since they retained a few of the plot elements from Ang Lee’s 2003 original, it wasn’t that noticeable. One thing about this film that it was hard for me not to talk about was recognizing the Toronto locals the film…
On August 6, 1999, a film about a child psychiatrist trying to help a child that sees ghosts, called The Sixth Sense, was released, directed by a relatively unknown Indian/American filmmaker from Philadelphia named M. Night Shyamalan. The film was a huge hit and it stayed at the top of the box office for 5…
Adam Sandler‘s comedies have always been hit or miss. However, for the last few years, he has been doing some different types of rolls, which did not really fit his character. Some of the magic came back last with with I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry and it’s back in full force with this…
Since I was away during the weekend, I quickly went to go see this film today. I would have to say that was definitely a very suspenseful film. It was also chilling that this is more realistic film (probably to support its, slightly exaggerated, tag that the film was “inspired by true events”). I also…
It’s a day late, but here’s my thoughts on the new Indiana Jones film, which I saw last night. I should probably start off by saying that it is not a perfect Indiana Jones film. In fact, I would probably rank it third in the series (after Last Crusade and Raiders of the Lost Ark)….
Last Wednesday when I looked back at The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, I worried that I did not know if I would enjoy this film, since I wasn’t that familiar with the rest of The Chronicles of Narnia. However, it turned out that I enjoyed the film just fine. It helped that this…
