The Feature:

“I have now seen Up three times and I could watch it many times over.”


The whole DVD is very fulfilling.Really, find something bad about this DVD. That is a challenge.*The following is a review of the DVD only. Yes, I am still behind on the times and I do not have a Blu-Ray player. Don't worry about it. There are a lot of CGI films out ...

The Feature:

“The Proposal is a movie that has incredibly stupid scenarios, but it at least focuses on a woman with self confidence who is uncomfortable with her arrangement just as any normal female would be.”


The film is an above-average, pleasant romantic comedy.Like any romantic comedy, it is still predictable and conventional.Sandra Bullock is an actress who has a niche and sticks to it. In her case, it seems she is not afraid to stick to romantic comedies. Why not, rig...

“It is a wonder to me that the same person who wrote Swingers could write a movie like Couples Retreat. This is a film that does not even come close to understanding relationships.”


It is hard to believe that it has been over ten years since the release of Swingers. It seems like only yesterday when fresh-faced Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn were bantering back and forth about the trials and tribulations of being young and single men in Los Angeles. To this day I can still say ...

“It is simply a good movie with greatness trapped inside of it just screaming to come ou”


There are strong extras along with equally strong performances from the leads.The film's script never quite hits a satisfying climax.I can't help but snicker when I think of Robert Downey Jr's turn in Tropic Thunder. His character has a monologue that he delivers to B...

“If it were not for Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, then we would not have Pixar or the CGI guinea pig film G-Force (actually that is probably grounds for hating Snow White).”


Just about the whole packaged deal.I don't have a Blu-Ray player. But hey, that's my fault.Perhaps this has a lot to do with being married to a woman who strongly feels this way, but I feel there's quite a bit wrong with Disney's princess obsession. What started in th...

The Feature:

“It is simply so uneventful that one forgets they even watched it.”


Two words: John GoodmanTwo more words: everything elseRemember the days when it seemed like indie films were on the surface about nothing, but deep down inside really about something? I've been on this tirade before many times, but it seems as though "indie filmmakers...

The Feature:

“Ron Howard goes the Oliver Stone route with this sharp, political thriller that uses dialogue as daggers.”


The film is an undeniably solid piece of work from Ron Howard.It's hard to say what exactly is "bad". If I have to come up with something, then I will say it was not the best picture I saw in 2008.Ron Howard is a filmmaker that I admire and respect, which is why I hat...

The Feature:

“This is the kind of movie that left me smiling when the closing credits rolled.”


The film itself is underrated and genuinely funny.The extras are rather empty.There are a lot of things I have done in my life that have left me with everlasting memories. One of those things is not the high school prom. I can recollect that nothing went wrong and tha...
