Movie review: The Odd Life of Timothy Green
—
Grade: B+ I’ve read a few reviews about this movie calling it too sentimental too saccharine and not realistic at all. Well…that’s why I saw this movie rather than The Expendables. I didn’t want to see things get blown up in my face. I have no hankering for blood baths. I *wanted* to see humankind…

Movie review: Dredd 3D
—
Grade: B+ Finally, a movie exceeded my expectations. Dredd was much better than anticipated. Actually, it was better than that because I expected it to suck. It was genuinely enjoyable. Carl Urban is a great Dredd. I like the vision they had for the character. Nothing at all like the Stallone version. The biggest surprise…

Movie review : Bad Teacher
—
[ No Spoilers ] If you’re wondering if Bad Teacher really earned it’s R-rating then worry no longer. It did. In spades. It brought the raunchy as good as any movie I can remember seeing. This is one of those movies that’s hard to capture in the previews because the best parts are exactly the…

Movie review : Thor
—
[ No Spoilers ] You already know from the previews that Thor is a visual masterpiece. You won’t be disappointed in the FX. They did a fantastic job of building Asgard. It is epic . . . I mean EPIC. I’ll see this movie again on DVD just to see the beauty of it. If…

Movie review – Source Code
—
[ No Spoilers ] Source Code is just like a Phillip K. Dick story except that it doesn’t suck – which is often the case with movie adaptations of P.K.Dick stories. In fact as soon as the movie was over I was checking my IMDb app just to be sure. The plot is well thought…

Movie Review – Inception (No Spoilers)
[ No Spoilers for Inception ] Right down the line, from acting to directing to writing to musical score to effects, this movie is top notch. In some cases brilliant. There’s not a weak link to be found. There are very few movies that twist and turn between action and drama with Gatling gun speed…

Movie review : Brooklyn’s Finest
—
Brooklyn’s Finest Buy the soundtrack for Brooklyn’s Finest iTunes Purchase at Amazon If you’re a fan of either Don Cheadle, Richard Gere or Ethan Hawke, or just like cop movies, then you’ll love Brooklyn’s Finest. This movie is a little like Pulp Fiction without the dark humor. There are three plots and each is germane…

Movie review : Avatar
—
A word about 3D I get motion sick fairly easily. So I was a bit apprehensive going in to see this in 3D. I usually avoid 3D screens, and on the occasions that I have experienced them, it was bad. Usually, 3D movies show a few scenes here and there in 3D, but the majority…
