Cop Out

February 28th, 2010

Cop Out shouldn’t be as likeable a formulaic cop action film as it is but when you add Bruce Willis’ Die Hardness to Tracy Morgan’s read-the-phone-book-and-be-funny delivery, a multitude of sins are covered up. Willis is the bad cop Jimmy Monroe (although not as bad as he would have you believe) while Morgan is Paul Hodges the goofy one whose want to be badder is almost as great as his parano ...

The Crazies

February 28th, 2010

The Crazies is a remake of a squirmy 1973 George A. Romero movie which this time around adds the capable acting chops of Timothy Olyphant to the mix. He’s David Dutton the sheriff of a sleepy Midwest farming town where the pace is a little mind numbing – but that is not what severely numbs the minds of townsfolk in a geometric progression. Something is turning the villagers into murderous zom ...

Defendor

February 21st, 2010

Defendor has Woody Harrelson again playing an off kilter, borderline certifiable character that is under arrest and ordered into psychiatric evaluation with Dr. Park (Sometimes Vancouverite Sandra Oh) because he vandalized a dry cleaner. Their session reveals that this is just one of an array of acts that he performs as a self imposed crime fighter. By day he’s Arthur Poppington a constructi ...

The Wolfman

February 14th, 2010

The Wolfman is not an homage to Bob Smith, the universally known DJ from the mid 20th century who also adopted the last name Jack. It is an homage of sorts though to an iconic horror figure from roughly that same era. Benicio Del Toro is Lawrence Talbot who in 1891 is summoned home to the English country estate of his estranged father Sir John Talbot (Anthony Hopkins) by Gwen Conliffe (Emily ...

Love and Savagery

February 14th, 2010

Love and Savagery is a starkly beautiful Canadian production filmed on the coast of Ireland. Michael (Allan Hawco) is a part time Newfoundland poet who in 1969 exchanged one rock for another, heading to Ireland to follow his passion. With this in mind it should come as no surprise that he’s a geologist but his passion for all things igneous is usurped when he loses his heart to Cathleen (Sara ...
