Headhunters (2011)
By: Henry J. Fromage (Three Beers) – There’s been an upswing in Scandinavian directors using crime thrillers as a springboard into Hollywood. The original The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo did it for Niels Arden Oplev (Dead Man Down), Easy Money did it for Daniel Espinosa (Safe House), and Contraband did the same trick for
‘Iron Man 3′ edges ‘Gatsby’s’ Great Debut
By: Matt Conway - As predicted, this week was by far one of the more interesting weekends of the box office year so far, with two intriguing movies entering the fray. What wasn’t predicted was how well one of the films would perform, and how much the other would completely bomb at the box office. Being the constant among the bunch was Iron Man 3 staying at
Peeples (2013)
By: Matt Conway (Four Beers) - Tyler Perry is just someone everyone loves to hate. At this point in his career, he has found a good deal of success financially and with audiences in his niche, with his Madea character being a staple for his success. Despite his success, most of his movies have turned out
Reese is Doing Just Fine and I’ve Already Forgotten Who Luke Evans Is
By: Henry J. Fromage – Reese Witherspoon’s been getting so much press lately somebody with a tinfoil hat on may even start whispering about her recent arrest. It seems like ever since then, she’s been landing roles left and right. First was Passengers, the sci-fi script that originally landed Jon Spaihts his Prometheus writing gig.
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) Rebuttal
By: The Cinephiliac (A Toast) - If you consider yourself a film buff or someone that is in any way passionate about film, chances are you’ve seen Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. If not, it’s probably sitting in your Netflix queue right now. Not viewing this film is like a clergyman having never read
Gambit (2012)
By: Katherine Balestrini (Four Beers) - A film pretty much doing what everyone has wanted to do at one point or another in their career, get sweet revenge on their boss. This film is exactly that, however it has the lovely Colin Firth as the poor Henry. And has the delicious Alan Rickman as his
James Franco is Cooler Than You
By: Henry J. Fromage – Well, I think it’s safe to say we won’t have to wait another eight years for another Shane Black flick, and it’s increasingly looking likely he’ll be returning to the slightly fantastical with his long-brewing project Doc Savage. Sony’s been holding onto the (self-authored) script for him even before Iron
The Spectacular Spider-Man (TV Show)
By: Kyle Daley (Two Beers) - No, you read that right. I’m not doing another review of the same show. This is a different show centered around Spider-Man. I figured if I talked about the bad, I think it only fair I mention the good. And if you haven’t seen my review of the newest Spider-Man show,
The Great Gatsby (2013)
By: B-Side (Three Beers) - The best thing in the world for a Baz Lurhmann movie to be is a beautiful little fool. The Aussie director’s particular brand of whizz-bang cinematic mayhem has livened up adaptations of the literary cannon before, and a camera whirring among the champagne and the CGI stars is actually not
MovieBoozer: LAYWER EDITION
By: Chris Sheridan - It’s MovieBoozer LAWYER EDITION!!!!! Our first story takes us straight through the asshole of Hollywood and right to the palm slapped firmly against my head, because this story is a hilariously idiotic misuse of the great American justice system. Remember how legitimately cool G.I. Joe: Retaliation was, partly because it didn’t continue those
