In this fast-paced courtroom drama noir remake of the 1956 film, Peter Hyams (End of Days) recruits Michael Douglas, Jesse Metcalf and Amber Tamblyn to star in a crime triangle where young, pulitzer-thirsty investigative reporter C.J. Nicholas (Metcalf) falsely implicates himself in a murder of a young street hooker to bring down a corrupt district [...]

“It’s ten o’clock at night. The dull dudes on the planet are sitting in their slippers and sipping their Sherries. But the people who love to rock and to roll are ready to ride the rocking rollercoaster once more.
“You are listening to Radio Rock, and I am The Count, and I’m counting you in as [...]

Oi, I just watched Zombieland and I’m pleased to say I didn’t spend any money on it as I would have felt it wasted on the talented actors who made a boring zombie flick. Making zombie movies is like being in a punk band: unless you’re cross-genre, there’s nothing you are going to [...]

You Better Hold On Tight, Spidermonkey
Arguably the best line in the movie, “You better hold on tight, spidermonkey,” says Edward as he climbs up the bark of a redwood with Bella on his back. And as they continue on through the forest, jumping, flying, arriving at high mast to overlook a scene of enormous, mountainous [...]

Dr. Henry Carter, a disillusioned celebrity psychiatrist in Los Angelos who’s wife recently died, is lost in a downward metaphysical spiral — and smoking boatloads of marijuana. Waitaminute, this almost sounds like the recipe for a Seth Rogan flick, but it’s instead quite a somber film from up-and-coming director Jonas Pate with the cross-story feel [...]

If Mel Gibson didn’t have an edge of darkness in him, he wouldn’t be perfect such a role as this. A detective who’s lost his activist daughter by way of corporate espionage shotgun blast right at his front door when she comes to visit (I didn’t give this away, it was in the trailer). [...]

Paranormal Activity, the super-low-budget film that’s actually been lying around for two years, gets a high rise in profits and it has The Blair Witch Project to thank.  And when I say “super-low-budget”, I’m mean embarrassingly low.  Blair Witch was around $20,000, but Paranormal Activity managed to record over that figure with $15,000, which results [...]

SPOILERS WITHIN..
From the makers of Terminator 3 comes a film portraying a somewhat believable future where the average human being interacts with the rest of the world behind the veil of robot clones.  A concept resembling that of today’s internet identities, the chilling similarity to the growing trend of spending hours on end behind the [...]

Just before Batman Begins, Christian Bale produced and starred in Harsh Times, an excerpt from the end of a life of a soldier whose experience as in the occupation of Iraq has overthrown his initial Los Angelos thug lifestyle and sends him into the throes of a bloody American persona. With Freddy Rodriguez partnered, the [...]

The censorship in America is sad. I just watched this for the third or fourth time, but through Netflix, and there’s music and video editing that replaced what i found to be the crucial point of the movie. Originally, after the first viewing, i was more than psychologically entertained, i was shocked and felt a [...]
