Review: Little Fockers
Little Fockers greatly improves over the abysmal second act of this trilogy, but while I was consistently chuckling along the way, the film lacks any innovation with little we haven’t seen before in the genre; or series. Greg and Pam Focker have had a set of twins and they are close to celebrating their latest birthday which means the Focker/Byrnes families →
Review: Machete
I found Jan Brewer’s beheaded bodies, they are in...Machete! The Grindhouse faux trailer turned feature length grind house film fits in perfectly with its predecessors, Planet Terror and Death Proof.

Back in Mexico Machete was the one man on the police force that would make grown man weep if they heard he was coming for them. He →

Now Playing Review – Valentine's Day
I still stand behind the fact that I am not a fan of this day, but Valentine’s Day has at least warmed my heart enough to be capable of acknowledging it as an acceptable holiday. But just this once. In a nutshell, Valentine’s Day takes a group of characters that tie together in simple ways and depicts the relationships in →
Review: Valentine's Day
Valentine’s Day is a bunch of good actors, looking pretty, and doing decent work in paint by numbers plot and unimaginative entry into the rom-com genre; whose formula has been done much better in a few films still fresh in the memory. Now, this film is bound to bring in the bank for a number of reasons; lots of big name →
