Reviews

Latest Review Additions:
  

Seven Pounds

As good as Smith has been at the plate (box office) with hit after hit, he struck out with this at bat.

Frost/Nixon

Director Ron Howard, here, is basically offering any still-embittered, fellow Baby Boomers a belated opportunity to bask in Nixon’s humiliation.


The Black Candle

A most informative DVD aimed at anyone interested in exploring the roots of Kwanzaa or explaining its meaning to young children


Milk

Sean Penn Shines in Oscar-Quality Performance as Gay Pioneer


The Dark Knight DVD

The picture itself happens to be perhaps the best screen adaptation of a comic book ever.


Cadillac Records

'Cadillac Records' l has the talent and the music that should propel audiences to come see where the heart of rock and roll started.


Man on Wire DVD

An exhilarating experience not to be missed, either its enlightening peek inside the elite mind of an extraordinary individual or its ethereal tribute to the Twin Towers.


The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian DVD

The saga inexorably builds to a familiar, cataclysmic battle royal that’s simply a marvel to behold.

Wanted DVD

Director Bekmambetov makes an unforgettable English-language debut with this relentlessly-amoral exercise in gratuitous violence.

Australia

'Australia' is a big, overlong drama that needed more substance than glossy makeup and hokey acting.

The Real Great Debaters

An overdue, posthumous tribute to some African-American role models worthy of emulation.

Transporter 3

Statham makes the most of his latest opportunity to display his fighting skills while also adding a dash of romance to his repertoire.

The Longshots DVD

A pleasant, if predictable, tale of female empowerment ideal for the under ten set.

FOUR CHRISTMASES

Witherspoon's not up to par in comparison to the long-time comedic Vaughn.

HANCOCK (DVD REVIEW)

Don’t expect to laugh and you won’t be disappointed.

MEET DAVE(DVD REVIEW)

An intelligent and frequently funny film with some profound points to make about the shallowness of the movie industry.

TWILIGHT

'Twilight' is window dressed it with rock music, wonderful cinematography and design, but little substance.

BOLT

Bolt is an enchanting animated adventure that’s fun for the whole family. Another instant kiddie classic from Disney!
