There's something so cool about Christmas horror movies. Perhaps it's already a bit creepy to think about some big fat guy walking around your house when you're asleep, watching you masturbate, judging you to see if you qualify for his "Nice" list. Or maybe it's just nice to take a little break from all the Christmas cheer, stressful shopping and the constant carols...[more]...

It certainly looks like a Christmas movie, and you could call it a Christmas movie in a way due to Santa and Jack Frost. But it isn't strictly a Christmas movie. What's cool about this flick is that it applies the current dirty dozen trend and creates an Avengers team out of holiday/fairy tale icons. It suggests that these childhood legends are not only here to deal presents and Lunesta, but protection and justice as well...[more]...

Bueno, esto es un raro grado, ya que realmente no se siente como una película real. Es como una película falsa. Usted sabe que en películas como Tropic Thunder o Funny People en la que se muestran una serie de clips o trailers de películas falsas que un personaje ha estado en darnos una breve historia de su carrera? Eso es lo que esta película se siente...[more]...

I know a lot of people hate Will Ferrell. Some of my best friends hate him and I can understand why but I’m a fan. I can’t help it, the guy makes me laugh. At was skeptical of this because I’m usually not into political movies. Political satires especially, they’re just not my thing. But this isn’t the kind of political romp that you need to be familiar with CNN slang to appreciate. As long as you get the gist of how elections go, you’ll be fine...[more]...

One of the most appealing factors of this movie was how it seemed to be Burton return to his signature "fish out of water" kind of deals like Edward Scissorhands and Pee Wee's Big Adventure, throwing an oddball character into the unfamiliar settings of what we consider ordinary life. It seemed like there would be a lot of that ironic humor of Depp's vampire trying to adjust to the times. And there is some of that...[more]...

This starts off well with this John Carter guy in the 1800s, running from the law and fighting Apaches, then mysteriously transported to Mars where the alien inhabitants are raging their own civil war. Carter’s bone density and his body’s response to the planet’s gravity grant him Hulk-like powers of super strength. Throw in some intergalactic battles, some four-armed yetis, that adorable little Jabba-dog and a princess played by hot as hell Lynn Collins...[more]...

Adam Sandler is done ladies and gentlemen. DONE! I do have to give this one credit, I did find it to be a little more tolerable than most of these Happy Madison monstrosities. It does seem like it tries a little harder to get its laughs and does have a little bit more of a storyline, but I just didn’t find this movie to be all that funny at all...[more]...

The setup is just splendid. We’re introduced to our antagonists and the tragic parallel paths that eventually intersect and bring these two together to form an unlikely relationship that neither of them knew they wanted, but a relationship both realize that neither one could literally live without. The inciting incidents are daunting, the conflict is clear and we’re undoubtedly convinced that these trigger-happy villains are not fucking around...[more]...

What I love about this movie is what I love about all Wes Anderson movies. These storybook worlds he creates, full of lovable, quirky characters, considerably content with their odd behavior and communicate with each other through that distinctive brand of side-splitting dry humor. There's just something about his movies that keep a constant smile on my face the whole time I watch it, and this one was absolutely no exception...[more]...

This isn't your typical exercise in "person pretends to be someone else and forms a relationship with an opposing side that inevitably causes conflict" tales. It doesn't follow that basic formula and there are those certain predictabilities that come with the plot. You know she's going to fall in love with him. You know there will be that guilt trip when he tells her that he trusts her, and you know he'll eventually find out her true motives that will result in a sobby confession...[more]...
