Normally for a sequel, I’d hunt down the original so that I wouldn’t miss any of the callbacks or subtlety of character development. Instead, I figured with this one that the best tack would be one of surprise, just to see what...

I know you’re shocked. I can’t believe it either. Somehow, we’ll get through this together. For a movie destined to be forgotten within 24 hours of its release, ‘Monster Trucks’ sure built up a lot of hype....

That’s what the film has become lately, yet it puts you in the wrong mindset to appreciate a movie that’s more concerned with fart and dick jokes than breaking any barriers through satire. I’m...

Unfortunately, something went drastically wrong at some point during production. This placid flick is neither provocative nor funny. Nope, it’s shockingly dull and an unfortunate...

It can no longer fall back on dragging Billy Crystal out of retirement when other plans fall through. His hosting this year was simply dreadful. With that in mind,...

The original intention was to write these about once...

(See ‘Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas‘.) But this year’s Valentine’s Day offerings from NBC were generally good. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that almost every episode was a step up from the previous week. Community If there’s one show I can count on to...

I saw five films. I’ve come to find out that five movies in a day is my limit. Any more than that, they all start to just blend together. It’s harder to judge and critique when you’re seeing that many movies in a day....

The addition of a new show is always interesting, but the return of ‘Parks and Recreation’ really has me excited. What used to be a nice compact two-hour block of comedy is now three hours thanks to the addition of ‘Perfect Couples’, which I’m really...
