Seriously Kidding: Dark Thoughts and Tater Tots: A Venom Review
2018 may finally be the year that a superhero film takes home the Oscar for Best Picture. After multiple commercial flops, like Infinity War and Black Panther, Venom finally gets the formula right. Venom cuts out what has been hindering the genre: gripping plots, heart wrenching backstories, memorable soundtracks, likeable characters, good action sequences and […]
Movie review: “Here Comes the Boom”
Here Comes the Boom” will be booming at the box office. Between the comedy, fight scenes, and Kevin James’s ability to win over the audience, it won’t even feel like 105 minutes passed by.
Not perfect, but close enough
If you’re a “Glee” fan or you loved “Bring It On,” you’ll probably get a kick out of this snarky comedy full of pop music hits.
Crazy movie fads: The vampire edition
This year, there will be at least three films involving vampires. The first, “Underworld Awakening,” premiered in late January. “Dark Shadows,” starring a vampiric Johnny Depp, hits theatres on May 11 and, possibly the most unique film of the three, “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter” will premiere this summer.
Happy Hunger Games
After watching this movie, I can happily tell you guys, this movie isn’t just for girls. There is a slight love triangle, two hot guys and a heroine (girl power!), but the movie is also about children killing other children. The movie didn’t tone down the violence. We saw children from 11 districts turn into killing machines to become the lone survivor. So, guys and gals this movie is for both of you and may the odds be ever in your favor.
Score some comedy on “21 Jump Street”
There is no fathomable reason for you to miss this movie. “21 Jump Street” stars Jonah Hill as Morton Schmidt and Channing Tatum as Greg Jenko. Together, this unlikely duo take on the biggest challenge of their lives for a second time. High school. Warning: Inappropriate hilarity ensues.
Join the party with “Project X”
Hands down, if you miss this movie, you’ve lost an exciting vicarious experience that may not change your life, but it will give you a hell of a lot of incentive to do so. “Project X” is every innate party animal’s wet dream. The entire premise of the story is about three misfits who, while on the hunt for some co-ed lovin’, throw the most epic birthday party to ever hit suburban Pasadena, Calif.
Movie Review: War Horse
After the “Marley and Me” incident, I thought I’d learned my lesson from animal movies, which was: stay the hell away from them. I’ve never really considered myself a person who would curl up into a ball on the floor and whimper, “It’s just a movie, it’s just a movie,” because of an animal. Evidently, I was wrong.
“Ghost Rider 2”: I just never learn
Story-wise? Quite possibly the worst excuse for a movie-adaptation of a Marvel superhero I’ve ever seen (and I saw “Thor”). Effects-wise? Not bad because I possess a Y-chromosome and am easily amused by dancing flames and motorcycles that are on fire.
