2007 SUMMER MOVIE PREVIEW
Click here to see what's ahead this summer.

The 2007 Summer Movie Preview gets started early in May with the release of "Spider-man 3", the third film of the franchise. All of the main principals are back with Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, and James Franco. Of course, there are new villains in the game with the Sandman (Thomas Haden Church) and Venom (Topher Grace), but rest assured that Spiderman will save the day in the end. There are a number of sequels coming out that pretty much end with the number 3. Johnny Depp returns for the third film in Pirates of the Carribean: At World’s End, Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker return in "Rush Hour 3" For independent film goers, there’s the Sundance favorite "Once" and "Waitress", directed by the late Adrienne Shelly. It will be battle for Box Office Supremacy between "Transformer" and "Pirates" and Spidey and Harry Potter. Who will come out on top?

Reviews

Latest Review Additions:
  
DEJA VU (in Film)
Aptly titled, since this edge of your seat thriller feels like a roller coaster ride.


In The Land of Women (in Film)
While Adam Brody presents some charm to this light hearted film, there are one too many stories thrown into the mix that makes the film convoluted and contrived.


HOT FUZZ (in Film)
"Hot Fuzz" is what you expect from a good satire, a lot of laughs, smart writing, and a cast talented enough to deliver the goods.


FRACTURE (in Film)
"Fracture" has all the elements needed for a great film, but only delivers with the performances. It could have been a much better film if the time had been taken to shore up the story.
GOODBYE MOMO( A Dios Momo) (in Film)
It's a film that a family can laugh and bond with a little belief in magic.
The Last King of Scotland DVD (in Film)
Recommended for the opportunity to witness Whitaker at his very best, eventually winning the Best Actor Oscar for his performance as Idi Amin.

Freedom Writers DVD (in Film)
A timely testimonial to the human potential to triumph over any obstacle via a combination of courage and perseverance.

Smokin' Aces DVD (in Film)
Smokin’ Aces is certainly visually-captivating from start to finish. Just don’t expect its storyline to be any more sophisticated than the typical gangsta’ rap video.

PERFECT STRANGER (in Film)
Perfect Stranger, which star Oscar winner Halle Berry, the set up is so pretentious and absurd that you can answer the riddle to this film is solved when you eliminate the obvious.

DISTURBIA(in Film)
Filled with romance, intense, and intrigue, director Caruso has updated a clichéd story into a modern pleasing thriller.

ARE WE DONE YET? (in Film)
Ice Cube forgot to add the comedy that worked in the first film instead of relying on elements from other films.
