Micheal Bay is a terrific director that is brought u...more

Doesn't that sound awesome already? I thought so, seeing as how I hadn't really known what to think after watching the trailer. I guess you could say it exceeded the expect...more

One of the most terrifying movies of the last decade.A great blend of horror and suspense. "Pandorum" is one of the few best films of 2009. In my mind, the "bad" years of the movies occurred in 2008 and 2009. Although "The Dark Knight" and "Slumdog Mill...more

Panic Room never pretends to be anything more than what it is. The premise is low-key, but it's really David's unique look in tone that edges this piece towards perfection. He's a master camera stroker.Code Orange Alert #37360: The Panic Room! God must hate me. Sad, but hanging out on escalators has become more fun than hanging out with my friends. It's my fault, really. I did it to myse...more
