Movie Review: The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)

A studio-mandated sequel to a weak-at-best film only made to hold onto the rights to a cash cow property, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a movie so pre-packaged and risk-averse that the only surprise it holds comes from the fact it is, against all odds, even worse than this dubious pedigree would suggest. Scotch taped…

Movie Trailer #2: The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)

In previous looks for Marvel Studio’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Electro had been getting all the attention. But in the latest (and final) trailer, Green Goblin and Rhino are making a bigger impact. It’s quite the refreshing impact too as Spidey, in several extended scenes, is locked in frantic battles with them (I was also…

Movie Trailer: The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)

The Rhino. The Green Goblin. Electro. They’re all on display in Marvel Studio’s latest superhero movie, The Amazing Spider-Man 2. They all, for one reason or another, also want to see Spider-Man destroyed.

Movie Review: Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)

But that was no…

Movie Trailer: Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)

Looks like Captain Kirk’s hubris may finally cause his undoing. I say that because it’s alluded to in the fantastic first trailer for Star Trek Into Darkness which dropped today. While plot details remain muted, this J.J. Abrams directed sequel has all the original reboot cast back aboard the Enterprise and battle stations ready. Rumor…

Movie Review: Cowboys & Aliens (2011)

Anyone who has read my review for 2010’s misfire, “Jonah Hex,” knows that I love genre-mashing. I adore it especially if it’s something being meshed with a Western. Now imagine my glee when I heard Cowboys & Aliens being announced. Then came out that Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Sam Rockwell, Olivia Wilde, and Paul Dano…

Movie Trailer #2: Cowboys & Aliens (2011)

Ride ’em cowboy! The latest trailer for Cowboys & Aliens has arrived. Based off of a successful graphic novel, the movie tells the tale of Absolution, an old West town, and their fight against invading aliens. Easier said than done (aliens have spaceships and lasers, Westerners have horses and Colt 45s), that is until a…
