Based on the extremely witty graphic novel by the same title, this movie seemed like a sure fire winner. Never underestimate Hollywood’s ability to screw something up. Instead of focusing on the wit from the comic book, the movie makers decide to make the entire movie non-stop action, with about a combined total of 15 …

Believe me, I am no Hugh Grant fan, but I was completely enthralled with this movie from start to finish. The story is of Will, who has no job and no life really, he just does whatever he wants and doesn’t really care about anything. That all changes when an outcast boy, Marcus, forces himself …

Never before have I seen so many bad-ass old ladies since my Grandmother (may she rest in peace) and her sisters would make trouble. The story is of Siddalee (Bullock) discovering why her mother acted the way she did growing up, and coming to a point of having a relationship with her. A heartwarming, though …

I always knew Johnny Depp was a good actor, and it seems like every new role I see him in just drives the point home even more. This time, Depp takes what would otherwise be a mediocre film and makes it unforgettable. The story is of a young girl who steals a pirate necklace from …

This is one of the thinnest plots I’ve ever seen that still was able to entertain. The only reason I even give this movie two marks is because it is pretty entertaining, but there is not much else. The story is of a nice old woman who takes the children of the villages’ teeth that …

I celebrated July 4th recently the best way I could, by watching a bunch of stuff blow up. And I tell ya, if you’re looking for explosions, look no further. They must destroy 30 full city blocks before the plot even enters the equation. When I first saw the previews for this latest movie in …

t’s movies like this that make you wonder “What on earth happened to Gabriel Byrne?” Why he’s in this movie, the world may never know. A group of ship salvagers get lured out to a ship that a pilot spots when flying over the arctic one day. The ship holds the corpses of a whole …

A movie about two men who form an odd friendship when both the objects of their affection are in comas. Benigno (who’s in the picture below) is madly in love with a girl, although she doesn’t know it, and Marco is in love with a female matador who slips into a coma after being violently …

Based on the true story of Frida Kahlo (or “Sex Kitten” as I like to call her), the movie journeys with Frida through a painful injury she goes through at a young age and a subsequent terrible marriage with Diego Rivera, the angst of which she gets out by painting very inventive works, and her …

A surprisingly poignant and touching story about a guy who gets so frustrated with his life that he takes it out on God, who in turn lets him have all his powers to see how he can manage. When I first saw previews for this movie (before The Two Towers, in fact), I couldn’t help …
