Review: Haywire
Steven Soderbergh enters the action genre with Haywire, starring former American Gladiator and MMA fighter Gina Carano. As you might expect when you have an MMA fighter for your star, the fights are great, but what about the rest of the movie?
Review: Contraband
Mark Wahlberg stars as a master smuggler in Contraband but he should have smuggled a sense of fun and a script that wasn’t completely full of heist movie cliches.
Review: Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol
Sending out 2011 with a bang, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol is, arguably, the best entry in the series with great action and a fantastic cast led by a, still awesome, Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt.
Review: Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
Robert Downey Jr. is back on another case as Sherlock Holmes and if you liked the first movie, you’ll probably enjoy this sequel, as it as everything that was great about the first movie, just more of it.
Review: Immortals
Coming from the producers of 300, can Immortals live up to that film’s gory, stylish, slow motion heavy action or is it more in line with something like the mediocre Clash of the Titans remake?
Review: In Time
In Time has an interesting premise (you only age until 25 and then have to work to earn more time) but can that translate to an interesting movie?
Review: The Thing (2011)
The 1982 John Carpenter movie The Thing is a beloved horror classic. Can the recently released prequel possibly live up to it’s predecessor?
Review: Real Steel
Delivering summer fun in the middle of October is (*terrible pun alert*) a knockout with fantastic special effects and the ever charming Hugh Jackman in the lead.
Review: Area 51
Area 51, released on DVD last week, is a collaboration between After Dark Films and SyFy channel and is probably the most competent SyFy original movie to date.
Review: Killer Elite
Being the third Jason Statham out this year, Killer Elite begs the question, “Is there such a thing as too much Statham?”
