Movie Review – 2 Guns
—
2 Guns blew me away. The movie was so well done that I couldn’t possibly fit all of the great moments into this review. Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg were perfect. The chemistry these two have is incredible. They brought their characters to life in such a way that it was actual movie magic. We’ve…

Movie Review – Turbo – Faster & Funnier Than a Snail’s Pace
Turbo was a charming little movie about dreams and perseverance. There was lots of laughter from the children in the audience, and more than a few chuckles from the parents. The characters were cute and interesting. Samuel Jackson, as the voice of Whiplash, and Paul Giamatti, as the brother Chet, were outstanding. The plot was…

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…

Movie Review – Smurfs 2
—
Smurfs 2 was super cute. I think it was better than the first one by a long shot. This one kept me entertained the whole time. Don’t tell my boss, but I fell asleep during the first one. The thing that made this one better is all the lines that will totally go over kids…

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,…

Movie Review – Oblivion
—
This film will certainly be enjoyed by die hard sci-fi lovers for its beautiful visuals — it’s particularly wonderful if you see it in IMAX. The dystopian story of an Earth post-alien invasion starts off a little slow, but is intriguing. There’s a genius scene in a swimming pool. Half-way through the movie though, the…

Movie Review – The Lords of Salem
—
The Lords of Salem, written and directed by Rob Zombie, definitely made it to my top 5 list along with Devils Rejects. However, this movie, with Zombie’s morbidly delicious way of thinking, is not going to be for the general public. It was visually assaulting. Rob Zombie imagined the witches as Manson-esque hippies, and very…

Movie Review – Pain & Gain
—
As I’m sure you know, Pain & Gain is based on a true story that took place in Miami, FL in the 90s. Michael Bay took an unfortunately comical event and made a pretty decent movie out of it. Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne Johnson were the perfect people for their roles. They’re both serious exercise-aholics,…
