Spoil-Free Review: Snowpiercer
So I finally saw Snowpiercer, a week after its limited US release date and a year after its Korean release. You can blame this bullshit on the Weinstein Company’s attempt to cut 20 minutes of the film (having seen this movie I’m not exactly sure what 20 minutes they tried to remove but I’ve been […]
Your Summer Movie Roundup (2 Months Late)
The summer movie preview 2014 edition has arrived–now sit down, contain your excitement you’re a grown ass person. Here it is, everything you need to know about the important movies coming out (some that have already come out) this summer. It’s two and a half months late because why the fuck not right? We’re already […]
Spoil-Free Review: Edge of Tomorrow
What is there to say about Edge of Tomorrow that you haven’t already heard? Not much to be honest. The praise has been pretty loud across the board. Most likely, no doubt, because the hype for this movie—or lack thereof—was less that dreary. I was one of the biggest offender, liking neither Tom Cruise nor […]
Spoil-Free Review: 22 Jump Street
22 Jump Street is the meta comedy of the year. With as many jokes the movie makes about how terrible the sequel normally is it’s impressive how much of a success this follow up comedy is. In fact I would venture to say, better than the first. The question always is how do you make […]
Spoil-Free Review: X-Men: Days of Future Past
So here is where I find myself, having just seen X-Men: Days of Future Past—twice—and I am asking myself an eerily familiar set of questions. Where does this rank in the Marvel movie canon? Where does this rank among X-Men movies? Was this a good movie or is the nerd in me (it does make […]
The Bad Movie Club: Spider-Man & The Phantom Menace
So the bad movie club is pretty much what it sounds like. I watch crap movies, then I tell you about it. Pretty much as simple as that, no muss, no fuss, just shit. I thought since this is the first meeting of the club I would start with a double header. And which two […]
Spoil-Free Reviews!: Iron Man 3
Unless you have been living under a hole for the last 3 months you know that this past weekend saw the release of the third but not final instalment in the superb Iron Man series. If you’ve never seen a super hero movie: 1) I’d like you to email me and tell me how that’s […]
Spoil-Free Reviews!: Hansel & Gretel Witch Hunters
There are really terrible movies that I hate to love: Transformers, The Expendables, Abraham Lincoln-Vampire Hunter, or really most of Jason Statham’s movies. Then there are the movies that I really want to love but just can’t seem to enjoy like Citizen Kane, Precious, The English Patient, or Jaws. Then there are movies like Hansel […]
Oscar Overview
Movies are the last media format with a halfway respectable award system (I’m looking at you Grammy’s) the Oscars and by association the Golden Globes and SAG Awards are the last awards I give even half a shit about. When Take Care, Food & Liquor II, Life is Good, God Forgives, I Don’t, and Based […]
Spoil-Free Reviews!: Gangster Squad
Its about 3 AM on the 11th and I just come back from the premiere of Gangster Squad. The movie that most people will either recognize as the movie where the most beautiful couple in movies does it again (Emma Stone & Ryan Gosling) or as the movie that got absolutely fucking shafted by Rotten […]
