It’s tough to be cool rolling in a minivan, but the dads in Neighborhood Watch (retitled The Watch), for which the first teaser trailer was released today, almost manage to do it. I mean, c’mon, these guys have a tiger with fiery wings decal on the side of their ride! That logo identifies them as…
Releasing a mindless war movie under the precedent that it’s “like no other in Hollywood’s history” was not the right way to convey reverence for our troops. While Mike McCoy and Scott Waugh’s Act of Valor shows respect for the men and women in uniform overseas, it ignores the complexities of their situation. Once intended…

A second trailer for Juan Carlos Fresnadillo’s Intruders has been released by Millennium Entertainment and it’s more jarring than the first that was released in May of 2011. This one somehow links a young girl and a young boy from two separate families with a ghoulish figure. What it wants and why it has locked…
