Zero Dark Thirty, in Search of Osama Bin Laden (Film Review)

  This step-by-step insight into how the CIA found Osama Bin Laden and then blew him away is nicely produced, directed and acted.  I found Zero Dark Thirty fascinating, intriguing and then startling, playing out like a news story happening before my eyes. Even though you know the story from the media, you will be […]

FRANKENWEENIE Electrifies on Home Video!!! (Blu-ray 3D Review)

  One of the most intriguing animated films to come out this past year, Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie puts on a great show for all ages.  The movie now on Blu-ray in a 3D 4-disc combo pack takes the fun into your living room where you can enjoy it close up.  The 3D imagery has all […]

Taking the film with a grain of salt, the audience should […]

The Hobbit, a Magnificent Start to a Jackson Trilogy (Film Review)

  Middle-earth returns to theaters with The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and it’s a welcome home to J.R.R. Tolkien’s storytelling.  I didn’t realize how much I missed Lord of the Rings on the big screen until seeing this beginning of another Peter Jackson trilogy.  If you are a ‘Rings’ lover, then it’s time to put […]
