‘Micmacs’ Review: A Poetic Cinematic Circus

In the world of cinema no filmmaker’s work is as instantly recognizable than that of Jean-Pierre Jeunet. His first feature, Delicatessen, which he co-directed with illustrator Marc Caro almost twenty years ago, is still a visual masterpiece that took pieces of Terry Gilliam, Tim Burton, and a sense of twisted fairy tale whimsy and wrapped them up into something entirely unique. His latest work is , Micmacs à Tire-Larigot, (just Micmacs over here) a piece of poetry masquerading as cinema, accomplishes the same heights, but he peppers a little politics into each stanza.

MacGruber Review: Best SNL Comedy Since Wayne’s World

‘Saturday Night Live’ has been responsible for more of than its fair share of terrible sketch spin off movies (The Ladies Man… Superstar), so I’m happy to report that with ‘MacGruber’, they finally got it right.

‘Robin Hood’ Review: A Prequel to a Legend

Ridley Scott is one of the biggest guns running in Hollywood these days, and has been for the last thirty-five years. Some of his biggest successes, such as Alien..

DVD Review: Edge of Darkness

Sixty year old director Martin Campbell is no stranger to being the master behind action films. He’s made a couple “Zorro” movies, not to mention two “Bond” films as well. Back in 1985, he also directed a TX series that lasted six episodes, with a familiar title, “Edge of Darkness.” It must not have been too gravy, considering its short life span. Next up, Campbell is the man in charge of directing one of the next big comic book hero films, “The Green Lantern.” It’s expected to hit theaters June 17, 2011.

‘Mother and Child’ Review: A Lover of Women, Maybe…

The three lead characters of Rodrigo García’s, Mother and Child, played by Naomi Watts, Kerry Washington, and Annette Bening, have some something rarely seen in females on screen – depth. In an industry dominated by men, the heroine’s arc is usually relegated to a supporting character. As Washington said in an interview with this site, in reference to the typical female roles in film, “[women] usually get to hold the hand of the people going through the massive transformation.”

DVD Review: It’s Complicated

Nancy Meyers has made quite a large contribution to romantic comedies in her twenty year career. She’s the brilliant mind behind hits like “Father of the Bride,” “What Women Want” “Something’s Gotta’ Give,” and “The Holiday.” Her ability to touch peoples hearts, as well as gauge sense of humor, of a wide variety of ages, makes her someone very unique. She knows how to make a product that sells, and her films sell very well. Meyer’s films carry an average ranking of 6.5 out of 10 from her viewers feedback. Her projects are often more popular for people age thirty and older.

Interview: Michael Caine from ‘Harry Brown’

Early this week I got to sit down at a round table interview with Sir Michael Caine to discuss his new film ‘Harry Brown’ where he had a lot to say about being in a gang, the state of the English class system, communist theaters, and Hollywood in general. Read it with an awesome cockney accent and it will be somewhat reminiscent of how cool it really was.

Harry Brown Review: Dirty Harry For The False Teeth Set

The vengeance film is back with a vengeance. So is Michael Caine. In his first starring role since 2007’s “Sleuth” Caine plays the title role in “Harry Brown,” a simple film that centers around an ex-marine who sets out to do what the police can’t do, kill nihilistic teenage thugs. Caine’s work in the film casts a shadow over the whole picture as his acting chops tower over the story telling, proving him to be at the top of his game fifty-four years into his career.

The Human Centipede Review: 100% Medically Accurate

What is the state of the horror genre? It must be down in the dumps if the atrocity that is Torture Porn breaks box office records. However with the latest Saw outing bombing like Fat Man or Little Boy maybe that bizarre fetish of the movie going public has run its course. But what then? What comes next? What is more disturbing, more shocking than Torture Porn? The answer, sorrowfully and gleefully at the same time, is the brazenly crazy The Human Centipede (First Sequence).

DVD Review: Avatar

If you’ve seen a couple movies in your life, you at least know who James Cameron is. The Hollywood directing tycoon that brought you Terminator, Aliens, True Lies, and Titanic. His films have earned a couple billion dollars. That doesn’t happen making average films. Cameron will direct these big budget films up until the day he goes to his grave. Don’t count on him to hang up his talent anytime soon.

Interview: Dan Hahn from Disney’s ‘Oceans’

We had the pleasure of speaking with Dan Hahn, the executive producer of Disneynature’s new film Oceans. He spoke with us about the filmmaking process, how the movie has changed his views on the environment, and future Disneynature projects in the works.
