Fish Tank

March 14th, 2010

Fish Tank stars impressive silver screen neophyte Katie Jarvis as Mia, a fifteen year old with a foul mouth, delinquent attitude and a love for animals and break dancing.

A Prophet

March 7th, 2010

A Prophet s from France and stars Tahar Rahim as Malik El Djebena, a street level criminal and not even good at that judging from the physical scars he bears.

However there is an underlying power struggle between the dominant Corsicans led by César Lucia ...

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 ...
