A Pefect Getaway (Unrated Director’s Cut) (2009)

Posted December 23rd, 2009 by Admin | No Comments

“A Perfect Getaway” is a mystery/suspense thriller that doesn’t keep up the mystery or suspense. Obviously the filmmakers were trying to throw twists and turns in the story to keep the audience guessing. However, the filmmakers forgot to make us care enough. The actors aren’t developed enough for the audience, we don’t [...]

District 9 (2009)

Posted December 23rd, 2009 by Admin | No Comments

I love science fiction films, but this film was just not up my alley. As with “Inglourious Basterds,” “District 9” gets docked several points for the shear graphic violence. How many times must I say it? “Films don’t need this graphic violence. It is completely gratuitous.” And that’s another thing. [...]

“Extract” comes from Mike Judge, the creator of “Office Space.” So, one might have high hopes for this comedic film. Alas, those hopes are not dashed but certainly cut. This film isn’t even in the same league as “Office Space.” Still, “Extract” offers some laughs, but not much else.
Jason Bateman stars [...]

Neill Blomkamp’s directorial debut even makes us glad the Halo movie got canned, and that’s saying a lot. [...]

CES is fast approaching and that means that in the next few weeks, we’re going to be seeing a lot of press releases bragging about milestones that were reached by the major players in the video and audio markets.

Inglourious Basterds (2009)

Posted December 22nd, 2009 by Admin | No Comments

Okay, I am just going to come right out and say it. “How and the heck is this movie getting five star ratings all around?” It is just preposterous. There is simply no way that this film will ever become a classic. This is no “Casablanca.” This film is lucky [...]
