Glitz, glamor, gross, guns, and gratuitous nudity, violence, drugs and sex, that’s the sum of the new film Spring Breakers in theaters this weekend.

Identity Thief, a Wacky Comedy (Film Review)
February 7th, 2013 John Delia The comedy road tripper Identity Thief enters this weekend’s film choices on a good note. Although it’s not the best relationship film, I found it entertaining especially if you like the dead pan comedy of Jason Bateman and the wild and wackiness of Melissa McCarthy.

Missing the chemistry of the Stallone of yesteryear, the master of the choreographed fight has become too repetitive accepting too many of the same roles lately. […]
