A dark movie about hope. Star powered, intense subject matter. Beautifully written and acted brilliantly. Welcome to the Rileys stars James Gandolfini, Melissa Leo and Kristen Stewart in a star-crossed, painful and tragic story of love and healing.
It's time to strap in, put on your 3D glasses, and overt your eyes because Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Bam Margera and the gang are back to turn your stomachs and make you pee your pants laughing.
It's been four years since Jackass 2 and the real question is with a bigger budget does this group of misfits still have what it takes? The answer is yes.
Looking for an exciting action film, with a bit of comedy thrown in, featuring a bunch of Hollywood vets who are clearly having a blast? Think I'm a couple months behind and talking about The Expendables? Well, you'd be wrong.
With the recent outbreak of vampire movies in the last couple years, it's always nice when a film comes along with an inspiring take on the genre. Let Me In is that film, but, because it's a remake of a Swedish film, it can't take all the credit.
Those with a relative knowledge of Canadian cinema may very well be familiar with Pete and Joey, the two protagonists from Don Shebib's 1970 film Goin' Down the Road, a piece that one could argue was essential marking a move for Canadian films from the proliferation of National Film Board documentaries to fiction features.
Review: Ladies & Gentlemen... The Rolling Stones (1973)
Posted by: Mike Walkey • September 24, 2010 @ 3:47pm
Like many, I discovered the Rolling Stones as a young adolescent. The energy, the power, the sexual angst. I identified with it all and it shaped the man I am now.
I was 15. But this was not 1964.
It was 1994.
You know summer is officially over when the B movies hit the big screen to bridge the gap between blockbusters and award season. It may be early for the October horror movie season, but here come buckets of blood anyways with Robert Rodriguez's Machete. However, instead of just good old fashion movie magic corn syrup blood, it looks like tomato paste.
I know what you're thinking. This guy is giving a movie with man-eating fish as its main characters a 4 out of 5 star rating, and therefore must be an idiot and/or he doesn't know what he is talking about?
Well you're wrong, because this film is so GD entertaining it might just be the most fun you'll have at the movies all year.
With a mediocre summer for movies almost over, I was looking for one last film with a good cast. Having a good cast can make a film better than its script, and it can also save a movie from poor material (ie. The Expendables). The Takers falls into the latter category, with a cast of mainly up-and-coming or younger actors.
Going into The Switch I was expecting a funny comedy with a few serious moments to keep the movie grounded. Instead, to my surprise, it was the other way around, being mostly a genuinely serious film.
