Monsters University Movie Review
It’s been almost twelve years since we were introduced to monsters Mike and Sulley, the heroes of ‘Monsters, Inc.’. There was always rumblings of a sequel after the first film hit, but nothing seemed to come of it…Until now, and not in the way that some have expected. Instead of
‘Howl’s Moving Castle’ Blu-ray Review
‘Howl’s Moving Castle‘ is easily one of the top tier Studio Ghibli films, and in fact, may be one of Miyazaki’s best films period. It’s a sweeping epic, gorgeously animated, and features some of the most memorable characters in any of his films, possibly only topped by what could be

There’s few genres that are nearly as cool as the Western genre, and the Martial Arts genre. Both have been mainstays in cinema for quite some time, for good reason, because they both house some of the greatest films of all time. So it’s no surprise that combining the

In a day in age where day time soap operas sadly seem to be a fading fad, fans must find a way to get their dose of backstabbing, betrayal, and drama. Thankfully for them, ABC has created ‘Revenge’, a show that will fall right into line with those day time
‘The Rescuers: 35th Anniversary Edition Double Feature’ Blu-ray Review
For me, ‘The Rescuers’ series is one of the true gems of Walt Disney Animation’s filmography. Both movies are full of colorful characters, exciting adventure, great humor, and lots of heart. That’s what makes the films so memorable for me, and really makes them stick out above many of the
‘High Fidelity’ Blu-ray Review
It doesn’t seem to matter what John Cusack makes, I almost always love it. Be it ‘Say Anything…’, ‘1408’, ‘Grosse Pointe Blank’, or even ‘America’s Sweethearts’, there’s always something in his movies, or about his movies, that I enjoy. So you shouldn’t be surprised to find out that I love

Geek Charming is Positively CHARMING!
It’s not very often that I saw “Awww” when I watch a movie, but Disney’s Geek Charming, released on February 7th, definitely got a few “awwws” out of this viewer. Disney, who has been on quite a roll with its tween-focused movies in the past few years, has struck gold

Yesterday was the release of Fright Night on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, DVD, Digital and On-Demand. The past weekend my wife and I sat down to check out this classic movie remake starring Colin Farrell. I was leery at first on if I wanted to see this film or not. I
