Dark Shadows- New Release

This is the first picture from Burton that I may hate, or at least strongly dislike.

Sleepless Night- New Release

While the high adrenaline action puffs its chest out plenty, Jardin is able to take a very elementary plot and layer intelligence that makes for compelling dynamite.

The Avengers- New Release

Whedon’s impressively concentrated effort of direction and dialogue is never wasted with the sick talent of actors who convey a magnanimous amount of pathos even while wearing tights and body suits.\

Think Like a Man- New Release

“Think Like a Man” is a pretty funny relationship flick when it’s not a feature length infomercial.

God Bless America- New Release

Goldthwait is able to convey his (and my) anger over the state of humanity, but even more than that drill in an overwhelming mood of exhaustion.

Cabin in the Woods- New Release

“Cabin in the Woods” is a film unlike anything you’ve seen before.  A must-see deconstruction meta-masterpiece that uses the often used foils of the horror genre and flips it on it’s bloody back.

Lockout- New Release

Stealing from the Die Hards and Escape From New Yorks as it does, “Lockout”, is a major fail, as dizzying action sequences bore and silly one-liners did not turn this reviewer’s frown upside down.

American Reunion- New Release

...familiarity counts for a lot, but it’s just too bad that in “America Reunion”, strong laughs or anything original for that matter wasn’t accomplished.

The Hunter- New Release

Twists are revealed, but never with the emotional punch sought out for.  Little is delivered in emotional satisfaction.

Wrath of the Titans- New Release

In the barrage of lightning bolts and fireballs there isn’t an actual drop of emotion earned.  Where any enjoyment is in “Wrath of the Titans” is all Greek to me.

Jeff, Who Lives at Home- New Release

Each of these sad characters know life is passing them by and there are no better directors to tell the plight of the “man child” than the Duplass Brothers.

Day 27- A MOVIE I WISH I'D SEEN IN THE THEATERS

As a big time lover of horror films I wish I could have seen the scariest film of all time.  That being 1973's "The Exorcist".  There was mass hysteria when this hit the movie theaters. Multiple people were witnessed vomiting among passing out, and I would have liked to be apart of that awe.

...with a budge of $250 Million you shouldn’t get mediocrity, you should get the moon and the stars and a better film that uses Mars.

Facebook 30 Day Movie Challenge- DAY 26

Day 26- A MOVIE I LOVE THAT EVERYONE ELSE HATES

"What is love, baby don't hurt me, don't hurt, no more."  I'll tell you what love is, it's my love for the SNL sketch turned into the feature length movie, "A Night at the Roxbury."  Back in 1998 Chris Kattan got top billing over Will Ferrell in the widely hated film that only got 11% at Rotten Tomatoes.  I don't care.  A whole film about the two head boppers tanked also at the box office but I still laugh every time it's on.  I won't apologize.

Facebook 30 Day Movie Challenge- DAY 25

Day 25- THE MOST HILARIOUS MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN

Day 8 of the movie challenge was the film you've seen countless times.  That answer, "Dumb and Dumber", might be the most hilarious movie but to pick another hilarious film for different sake I'll go with 1964's "Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb."  Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece stars the brilliant Peter Sellers. Definitely one of the favorite films I've ever seen.
