Blu-ray Highlights: Week of April 19th, 2015 – And Eat It Too

Josh Zyber — Mon, 20 Apr 2015 12:00:39 +0000

A disappointing entry in a faltering action franchise and a failed attempt at Oscar bait headline the latest batch of new Blu-ray releases. If you’re a fan of 1980s cult movies, however, this could be a big week for you. New Releases ‘Taken 3‘ – The name of this franchise grows increasingly inaccurate with each...

Netflix Watch: Before They Were Big

M. Enois Duarte — Fri, 29 Jun 2012 17:00:29 +0000

With the recent big-budget adaptation of ‘John Carter’ now available on Blu-ray, and the stupid-looking revival of ‘The Three Stooges’ about to be shortly, now seems like as good a time as any to check out a couple of smaller-budgeted related features ready to stream on Netflix. ‘Three Stooges’ My childhood is littered with memories...

Weekend Box Office: From Chimpan-A to Steve Harvey

Luke Hickman — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 15:00:20 +0000

Although ‘The Hunger Games’ finally got muscled out of the #1 spot on, this, its fifth weekend of release, the film managed to only drop another 31%. Coming in at third, ‘The Hunger Games’ has now made $356 million domestically. The movie that captured the #1 spot not only surprised me, but it surpassed its...

Weekend Box Office: Four in a Row!

Luke Hickman — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 15:00:26 +0000

Once again, ‘The Hunger Games’ walked away with the weekend box office crown. The film has finished in first place for four consecutive weekends. The last movie to perform this well was 2010’s ‘Avatar‘. Down only 35% from last weekend, ‘The Hunger Games’ made another $21.5 million, which brings its domestic gross to $337 million....

Now Playing: Another Farrelly Brothers Dud

Luke Hickman — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 15:00:30 +0000

From the very first trailer, I didn’t expect ‘The Three Stooges’ to be any good, but I had some hope that it might be anyway. I grew up watching marathons of the classics with my old man on just about every major holiday, so I wanted the ‘Stooges’ movie to be good. From the trailers,...

Weekend Movies: The Three Genre Flicks

Luke Hickman — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 13:00:38 +0000

Despite three new movies hitting the big screen this weekend, I don’t know if any of them can dethrone ‘The Hunger Games’. I guess we’ll see. The widest opener of this weekend is the Farrelly brothers’ ‘The Three Stooges‘, the movie that studios have been trying to make for ages now. This rendition brings the...

The Trailer Park: Where’s the Funny?

M. Enois Duarte — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:00:59 +0000

Once again, Judd Apatow’s recent comments about comedy being difficult are put to the test. Making others laugh definitely requires some imagination, a little finesse during delivery, and without doubt excellent timing. Two new movies demonstrate how easy it is to go overboard. One actually looks like it might be fun, while the other makes...

The Netflix Stream: Week of July 21st, 2011

Dick Ward — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 16:00:00 +0000

There’s not much leaving the Netflix stream in terms of greatness this week, but there’s even less coming to it. We’re losing the usual glut of movies, but only getting two in return. That’s right – two. Leaving the Stream ‘Purple Rain’ (7/22): Don’t act like you’re too good to enjoy a little Prince. Is...
