Taylor Kitsch is John Carter, a civil war era yankee and indian fighter transplanted to Mars only to find himself in another fight. A fight for a hot woman and against bad guys bent on destroying the planet. This was a hodge-podge of a movie that tries to borrow from every Sci Fi film you’ve e…

Whenever you see Paul Rudd, Leslie mann, and Jason Segel in a movie, you know it will be somewhat predictable, but in movies like this, predictability can be good. This is 40 is funny. Not especially so, just pleasingly so. Crass jokes about aging, some well scripted cussing, and other forms of … |

Senior citizen cinema is experiencing somewhat of a boomlet now. Quartet typifies the trend, spinning a gently comedic story about old flames who reunite in a retirement home for musicians and opera singers. It’s a pleasant enough movie, albeit too formulaic to be really interesting.

The story had a lot of promise: A forced dystopian society where the citizens begin to challenge, rise-up, and rebel. Unfortunately, the execution is a bit ho-hum, despite enjoyable acting by Shailene Woodley, Ashley Judd and even Kate Winslet. I’d summarize it by saying if they released as … |

Meh – This could have been much better. Unlike other critics, I don’t fault the retread attempt, but the execution was pretty uninspiring. Spidey flys around and kicks-butt, and you get to learn more about his character – but the story was overly cheesy and the plot-line contrived. Enjoy the b… |
