I will admit that when I first saw trailers for this film that I had no intention of ever forcing myself to sit through it. Not only am I not a fan of war films in general, the Civil War in particular has never been of much interest to me, I prefe...

I really don't know what I feel about this film because it isn't one of those movies you can enjoy and be entertained, it is more of a thought provoking piece. So, since I cannot write a normal review I just wanted to jot down some thoughts. ...

No spoilers! I know it is rare but yay NO SPOILERS, I hope! When I started watching this film I was lying out on my couch, comfy and relaxed, just wanting to have a good time after hearing such good things about the film. I hadn't actually read...

Note: This is a review of the superior theatrical cut, not the unnecessary director’s cut. This shall be a somewhat less complicated review than I usually write because this film is the perfect example of not only a science fiction film but al...

Firstly, this is based on the extended edition because there is no doubt it is far superior to the theatrical release. In lieu of the normal review I give you two lists... What I appreciate about Aliens: 1. Passion without sex – This...

Review: Prometheus (2012) This review is HIGHLY SPOILER RIDDEN! BEWARE! WALK AWAY IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE COVERED IS SPOILERY GOO! Where does one start when faced with nothing but pure disappointment? There is nothing more aggravating th...

I have never really "loved" this movie, I mean I always appreciated that it was a good film, well crafted and well executed, but I never really wanted to watch it over and over. In total I have seen it three times, about five years apart for each ...

Obviously there are going to be pieces which were left out, it is nearly impossible to create a page by page reenactment on-screen, just look at Twilight and its attempts to do so, didn’t end well did it? 5 Things I Didn’t Care For: 1...

What Did Work, Why I Liked The Adventures of Tintin 1. Perhaps one of the most beautiful pieces of film ever rendered, every single scene was visually stunning. I would say that the camera work was amazing, except it was animated, so do ...

I think I may stick to this kind of review, it is easier for me to give you my thoughts in list form. What Worked, What Made it Good: 1. Tom Hardy – From his perfectly sculpted body, to the tattoos which add a bit of bad boy, to thos...

Not in the mood to write a long review, so here you go :) Things I liked about John Carter of Mars 1. All around fun and entertaining movie, I was hooting and woohooing throughout the entire thing and that is all I really ask for from movies l...

I went into this film expecting to be bored, for some reason I had the feeling it was going to be a revamp of the "Solaris" story (which literally put me to sleep). I have never been a real fan of pure science fiction and especially those that had...

When I started watching this movie I was intending to write a full review, unfortunately I then finished the movie and never wanted to revisit it in full detail. So, in lieu of a review I give you my thoughts on the film in list form, they should...

Okay, so I am doing something a little different for this review because I cannot honestly spend another minute thinking about it. I am going to give you my running commentary while I was attempting to make it through the little under 90 minute c...

It took me over two years to finally see this movie, normally I steer clear of European films, I have no real reason why I just don’t watch a lot of foreign films. I thought about watching the Americanized version first but decided that was the ea...

This review will be short and to the point: This film is a ridiculous, boring waste of time, and if it wasn’t for Timothy Olyphant I would have stopped it within the first fifteen minutes. Although this was released as a horror film it really fits...

Not much to say about this one, it is hard for me to dissect a film like this, one that doesn’t take itself too seriously. I love the Scream franchise because it is both a classic slasher flick and an homage to the old school horror films. At firs...

I love fairy tales, at one point I wanted to base my Master’s thesis on the subject, so when I heard they were making a creepy retelling of “Little Red Riding Hood” I was stoked! When I learned that Catherine Hardwicke was the director my enthusia...

Mildly spoilery, kind of hard not to be with this kind of movie. When I popped this DVD in I wasn’t expecting much, I definitely was not expecting 17 minutes of commercials and previews before the main menu even showed up! I could not skip past...

Back in May, in my first Trailer Park entry, I noted my gut reaction to the first trailer of Fright Night: "This makes me want to cry. It is like they are purposefully screwing with my childhood. The original Fright Night is one of my all-time ...

To be honest, the only reason I really wanted to see Rango when it was in theaters was because of Johnny Depp. Well, that and the way the film was created, by having Depp, and I think some of the other actors, do their dialogue in action, not behi...

Much like Thor, when I first saw the trailer for Captain America I wasn't really impressed. Or I guess I should say I was conflicted and concerned, not only was it going to be a comic book movie but a historical comic book movie. If they did it ri...

I have said before that I have two films by which I compare all other comic book movies: Iron Man and The Dark Knight. Iron Man is the best example of a comic book movie that blends whit, humor and action into a well written and well made film. Th...

I put this movie in my Netflix Instant Viewing Queue several months ago, only because my brother wanted to see it because it is a video game movie and he has a bit of an obsession. I had no intention of ever sitting down to see it, even though I d...

This is a film that I fully intended to see in the theaters but budgeting and scheduling never really worked out. I had no knowledge of the comics or the franchise, however I discovered that a guy I went to high-school with played an evil ex so I ...

A few weeks ago I received "The Runaways" from Netflix and I let that little red envelope sit there for almost a month. Why? I really do not know, perhaps I didn't want to be let down, I didn't want to be disappointed because I am a huge fan of Jo...

First off, I have to admit to being a big Disney nerd. If ABC family is playing Aladdin or some other Disney film I will sit down and watch it, even though I own most of them. I grew up loving the classic princess stories and didn’t think I would ...

The Other Guys, another Netflix DVD that has been collecting dust for about a month, is a movie I rented for some random reason I don’t even remember. It had something to do with some of the ads which had made me chuckle, also I actually enjoy som...

I was quite surprised by this one, in a positive way. My brother and mother saw this while my other brother, my father and I saw Inception, so of course I didn’t listen to what they said about it because come on I was too awed by Inception. But I ...

I really do not get why this movie was so big and reviewed as one of the best comedies ever. Really? Was I seeing the same movie? I tend not to see movies like this in the theaters because I don’t want to spend my money on something that doesn’t n...

I feel a bit bad for comic book movies like Thor and the others that are coming out this summer because everyone is going to compare them to either The Dark Knight or Iron Man. Those two films defined what a great comic book movie could and should...

The movie itself is fun and made me smile which is pretty much all I ask for from this franchise. If you have low expectations, as I did because come on it is the fourth in the series how could I expect greatness, then you will enjoy the movie eve...
