The title sucks, but the movie rocks. Rox tops sux. How does it rock? Let us count the ways.

A ton of fun, notwithstanding its fashionably dark title, Thor: The Dark World features great baddies, ample turnabout, strong women and one mighty powerful hammer. My theater really enjoyed it, dates even more than dudes, judging from all the female laughter. That was mostly triggered by two…

Noah is a mashup of Old Testament and Global Warming theologies, one antediluvian, one anti-economic. Oh yeah, there’s also lots of Hollywood fantasy thrown in to make it a 21st century basso profondo action epic. The bizarre result is often ridiculous, but ultimately worthwhile both theologi…

Time hasn’t been kind to The Fisher King, a bum’s view of New York during the doleful Dinkins years. Terry Gilliam’s film of Richard LaGravenese’s screenplay is a dystopian tour through NYC in its Hobbesian pre-Giuliani days. Yes, it’s still a great movie, albeit its whine doesn’t stand the tes…

I did not see this coming… I was dragged to Maleficent by my lovely wife, and I ended up thinking it was great. On the surface, the animated forest with faeries, pixies, tree-people, and weird frog like characters would normally be a major turn-off for me. Well, I guess it was at first, but th… |

Now that my kids are grown, I don’t see many Disney movies, never mind re-makes of classics. In this case, I’m glad I decided to heed my whimsical choice. The Jungle Book was really well done, and John Favreau’s use of famous actors’ voices was spectacular. My favorite? Christopher Walkin as Kin… |

Marvel has yet another big hit and series-starter in Doctor Strange, an often funny, visually dazzling and even profound superhero epic. While not a surprise, the studio’s run remains nothing less than marvelous. The movie proves rewarding in several ways. First of all it’s funny, with a ste…

This is what happens when Pixar/Toy-Story like animation is applied to a story suited to the likes of Seth Rogan and Jonah Hill. Don’t let the animated plight of sentient groceries fool you; the humor is sophisticated albeit raunchy at times, but always a LOL factory. Also, don’t bring the kids… |

Guillermo del Toro struts his story-telling prowess by weaving an implausibly-intriguing love story between a humanoid amphibian and a quirky and homely maid. It’s the implausibility that makes this movie so impressive. One is completely drawn in by the story and the characters, and the fact th… |
