This is the End – movie review
—
Grade: A This is the End is, simply put, the funniest movie I’ve seen in at least the past 10 years. I’m pretty sure there wasn’t a span of 3 minutes, at any point in the movie, where the entire audience didn’t laugh. It’s hard to criticize the acting because everyone plays themselves. Elements of…

Movie Review – World War Z
—
This movie is packed with fast-paced action, and violence that will have you on the edge of your seat. Brad Pitt makes an excellent mental and physical warrior, trying to save his family and the world from the zombie apocalypse. I screamed (out loud!) throughout the entire movie. Be sure to see it in 3D.…

Movie Review – Man of Steel
—
Man of Steel is a fast-paced visual feast that is supported by great actors. Even when the premise feels a bit flimsy, the actors convincingly sell the story to the audience. Much of the film is told in flashbacks, when Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) is a boy/teen, giving the audience a window into how difficult…

After Earth – movie review
—
Grade: F [ A few spoilers but nothing you don’t learn in the first 3 minutes of the movie’s narration. ] I would like to say that After Earth is a movie worth watching. I’m a huge fan of Will Smith and believe him to be one of the most talented all-round actors in Hollywood,…

Star Trek Into Darkness – movie review [ no spoilers ]

Grade: A Let me start by going over the things that I DIDN’T love…Okay, now that we have that out of the way. I’m not kidding. Based on one viewing there’s nothing about this movie I didn’t love. Visuals – Yes, by all means you MUST SEE IN IMAX 3D. I usually avoid 3D movies…

The Great Gatsby – movie review
—
Grade: C+ Let me start of by saying I haven’t read the book. I know, I know, it’s required reading for practically every high school student. I must have been sick that day. It’s difficult to give this move a single overall grade because some aspects were pretty good while others were…not so much. Lets…

Iron Man 3 – movie review
—
Grade: B- There is a lot to like about Iron Man 3, but, speaking for myself, not a lot to love. Where it falls short is that there’s never a moment where I feel that Iron Man won’t survive and save the day. Of course they’re not going to kill of Iron Man in a…

Movie Review – The Place Beyond the Pines
—
This movie is interesting because of its non-traditional structure. It interconnects the story of two flawed men, and examines how their actions affect their sons. Ryan Gosling gives a sparse, electric performance. It’s so good, in fact, that I almost wish the story had stayed focused on Luke. But this story, like life, moves forward,…

G.I. Joe: Retaliation – movie review
—
Grade: D- If you’re a big G.I. Joe fan and you know all the characters and their relationships to each other then you might like this movie. But I’m not a G.I. Joe fan and I don’t know anything about the universe so a large portion of the movie was confusing to me. It was…
