GODZILLA poster

“Godzilla” is Back ‘Stomp, Stomp, Roar!’ (Film Review)

  Stomp, Stomp, Roar! Stomp, Stomp, Roar! What more do you need from an action film that features one of the top icons in the monster world, Godzilla.  It’s not the story that you go to see with this movie, it’s the massive destruction, electrifying battles and the incredible CGI that makes it all look […]

NEIGHBORS poster

“Neighbors” Adequately Humerously Crazy (Film Review)

  Welcoming the new neighbors; or not.  If you thought you saw wild and crazy in Project X and liked the movie, then it’s time to check out the Neighbors.  It’s a silly war between a frat that’s been kicked off campus and their next door family.  Although it has its moments and will probably […]

“Railway Man” Reliving a Nightmare (Film Review)

  Taking a closer look at a true story about a prisoner of war, The Railway Man enters the indie market in the United States.  The Australian made film has all the trappings of a compelling drama, but drags and lacks compassion as an example of war crimes.

Other Woman POSTER 2

While most men […]

GABRIELLE poster

“Gabrielle” A Poignant Story of Love and Music (Foreign Film Review)

  Poignant, enlightening and romantic the movie Gabrielle tells a compelling story of a young woman challenged by her genetic disorder.  Directed with a keen sense of understanding by Louise Archambault the film works with several anxieties including rite of passage, family influence, dealing with peers, coming of age and sexuality. The acting is brilliant […]

TRANSCENDENCE poster

“Transcendence” Tampering with the Future (Film Review)

  Working on its viewers with the promise of a chilling Sci-Fi thriller, in the end Transcendence fails to deliver. While the beginning of the film does offer an intriguing view of what could happen if a research company developed independent network with enough power and information to find a cure for cancer, the movie […]
