GI Joe: The Line Between Stupid and Genius is So Thin

Like every kid, back in the 80’s I had all of them. From Destro to Jinx, Cobra Commander to Sgt Slaughter. I had a hovercraft, a base, and many HISS Tanks, though never the Holy Grail of an aircraft carrier. With the amazing kung-fu grips and life like weapons I could have shocked and awed many a miniature plastic republics. Every afternoon I watched the cartoon sometimes with the figurines as welcome co-viewers. Plastic and cartoonish is how I remember that world, and now with Steven Sommers’ new film “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” my attitude hasn’t changed. This clunky two hours is painfully unsubtle, sophomoric, sanitized, and against all of my better judgments, pretty fun.

If you could go back to high school and do things differently – would you? Well that is exactly the chance that Mike O’Donnell (played by Zac Efron) has been given. Ever since his decision to give up his dreams of getting a basketball scholarship in lieu of his girlfriend’s pregnancy – O’Donnell has been asking ‘what if’ virtually every day.

Funny People Review: Is Lonely the New Funny

August 5, 2009
Few films delve into the strange world of stand-up comedy. It is a tightly knit group of witty, damaged emotion machines that claw away at each other just for one more laugh like addicts needing a fix… but in a funny way. It is an art form that is often overlooked, and rarely examined. The examination is what makes Judd Apatow’s hilarious, but uneven “Funny People” worth the overlong running time, though its often serious tone might be a turn off for those expecting Apatow’s third film to be more like his first two.
The Ugly Truth Review: Good Morning Heartache

Apparently the Battle of the Sexes is still raging. I guess. Men and women definitely still don’t understand each other, and usually that leads to problems, battles, blood, and mayhem. It’s more than a battle, it is a war. However by the end of the dull romantic comedy The Ugly Truth it was hard to tell who was winning, or why the fight was started in the first place.

Most people enjoyed 2004’s remake of Dawn of the Dead. Director Zack Snyder returned two years later, with the big screen adaptation of the graphic novel 300, and blew peoples’ minds. When it was time to bring the best selling Watchmen series to Hollywood, Snyder was the first one to get the call.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Review: Almost There
DoubtingSalmon
July 20, 2009
Imagine if Raiders of the Lost Ark just stopped after the Nazi’s took Marion off of Katanga’s boat. Or if Star Wars quit right after Han Solo took his reward and split. Both movies were super fun up until that point, but without the opening of the Ark or the assault on the Death Star, they would be sorely lacking. That is the feeling that persists as the final credits roll on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. A diverting film which serves as more of a second act to a larger narrative this is a movie of promises made rather than promises kept.

Review: 500 Days Of Summer
FanBolt
July 15, 2009
While most movie-goers were lining up for the new Harry Potter flick, I was able to catch 500 Days Of Summer, a movie that claims to not be a love story. Though whenever a film is prefaced with that – chances are it probably will be. But don’t worry girls, guys will love this one.
500 Days revolves around love struck Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and the girl of his dreams, Summer (Zooey Deschanel). In just 500 days, Tom goes from meeting Summer, to falling for her, to convincing himself that he doesn’t love her, to being with her, to…. Well, I can’t tell you that.
