The FP – Review

The FP – Review

One look at this review and it's easy to conclude that The FP is not a movie for everyone. It takes a specific sense of humor to really enjoy this type of film, and that's in no way an insult lobbed at people who don't "get" The FP. Art Hsu stars in a film about gangs who battle playing Dance Dance Revolution. Yup. Click to read the full review...

Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence – Review

Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence – Review

Beat Takeshi! David Bowie! Japanese! World War II! What else could you want?!? Blu-ray? Criterion? We got you! It’s all thrown in a porcelain Sake bottle and shaken violently. The result is the astonishingly (for me, surprisingly affecting) World War II drama, Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence. Click for the full review...

Crank 2 – Review

Crank 2 – Review

Crank 2 expecting a similar, maybe even more mellow version of Crank 1. Its not what I got. They have really pump up the volume on this one. It starts just where Crank 1 finished and just gets better and better with every second that passes. Click for the full review...

Sucker Punch – Review

Sucker Punch – Review

Zack Snyder kicks off the Spring movie season with his latest film Sucker Punch. The magnificent action-scenes make me forget that there is something more to the film. Does he have what it takes to make another solid flick or is this just a CGI mess of a film? Click to read the full review...

Never Let Me Go – Review

Never Let Me Go – Review

It is a very well done and emotionally draining movie. The subject matter is not that far fetched and could someday happen. I think the hardest thing for me to wrap my head around was the concept that in the 80's and 90's there would be a plausible scenario where people were designated solely for organ donation.

Mao’s Last Dancer – Review

Mao’s Last Dancer – Review

Mao's last Dancer tells the true story of Chinese ballet dancer Li Cunxin who grew up in rural poverty in Mao's communist before being given the opportunity to dance in the West in the early 80s. It is a remarkable biopic that I can't help but recommend. Click for the full review...

The Green Hornet – Review

The Green Hornet – Review

The Green Hornet is an action-comedy and clever superhero satire that's about as close to a cool summer movie as you're going to get in January. Very few gave Michel Gondry and Seth Rogen's Green Hornet much of a chance. Where they right not to? Click for the full review...

The Warrior’s Way – Review

The Warrior’s Way – Review

In the past few years, we have seen resurgence in two seemingly lost film genres. One would be the classic Western. The other, the epic Kung Fu spectacle. You may have been thinking The Warriors Way endeavors to combine these two winning themes into an exciting new beast, but the outcome may surprise you. Click for the full review...

Mirrors – Review

Mirrors – Review

Kiefer Sutherland does a solid acting job in this remake of a Korean film. Mirrors is all about his character, coping with the evils behind the mirrors ruining his life. The first half is full of cheap scares and bland scriptwriting; however it does set up the rest of the plot nicely. Click to read the full review...
