Movie Review: The Watch (2012)

I have never claimed to be a screenwriter (nor would I even try to), but it seems to me that if The Watch had just been about a group of goofy, inept, over-the-top neighborhood watchmen, then it could have been a much tighter, coherent and interesting endeavor. Under the eye of director Akiva Schaffer (“Hot…

Movie Trailer #2: Total Recall (2012)

The second trailer for the upcoming remake of Total Recall has come online. It rehashes what we already know — Quaid (Farrell), a man who has a lingering feeling there is something more to his life, goes to a memory-implanting service and finds that it is actually the life he has been leading that has…

Movie Trailer: Looper (2012)

Looper, the new sci-fi thriller starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Bruce Willis is going to be a interesting one. In the future, time travel exists and is illegal, which leaves it open for abuse by the bad guys. Gordon-Levitt is one of these bad guys. He is a hitman in the past, who is hired by…

Movie Trailer: Dredd (2012)

I’m no fan of the abundance of remakes, reboots or re-imaginings plaguing Hollywood these days. That is until word that “Judge Dredd” was finally getting the makeover it deserved with Dredd.

Movie Trailer #2: Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)

Back in January we covered the teaser trailer for Resident Evil: Retribution and today we’re covering its first full theatrical trailer. Other than some Matrix-y mind games being played on our heroine, Alice, this installment (number five I think) plays out in the same fashion as its predecessors. Alice fights back against the Umbrella Corporation…

Movie Review: Prometheus (2012)

Director Ridley Scott returns to his “Alien” roots with Prometheus, a lavish prequel, well done in its visuals and aesthetics, yet somewhat soulless as a whole. And while the plot brings the story of rogue — almost invincible — entities wiping out various interstellar crews full circle, one wonders what the point of the entire…

Movie Review: Men in Black III (2012)

What I loved about 1997’s “Men in Black” was it embraced its own corniness. The aliens were over-the-top and blew up like Jello molds; the sets had a distinct comic book feel to them; and the story balanced workplace comedy with fantastical backdrops. The style worked, propelling the film to financial and critical greatness. But…
