Director and co-writer, James Gunn brilliantly put together an oddball cast for “Guardians of the Galaxy,” and ultimately they are what make the movie. All the characters have flaws and that is why you end up liking them. Chris Pratt plays Peter Quill or as he would like to be known, ‘Starlord.’ The film starts ..

Long story short, the latest “X-Men” movie takes place in the future as a group of mutants are striving to live as they are constantly being hunted by Sentinels, killer robots created by Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage).

Directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs), “The Lego Movie,” is purely awesome. Introducing the main character, the camera sweeps over the 3-D computer animated Lego cityscape finally zooming in to meet Emmet (Chris Pratt), a very plain construction worker just trying to follow the rules so much so ..

Here it is. Again. Another big budget feature length remake of a classic. On the upside this movie was technologically perfect with state of the art animation. On the down side, as a whole, Mr. Peabody & Sherman don’t have the same allure as they did in the Jay Ward version. It has the same ..

Let me just say that this one of the better sequels that has come out in a while. In fact, if this movie doesn’t win some special effects awards this year, something is very wrong! The basic premise is that the human race has been pretty much wiped out by the virus from the first ..

Zac Efron is Jason, the obvious leader of the group. The movie starts out with him sitting on a park bench contemplating the “awkward moment,” ..

I was really curious to see what acclaimed director Darren Aronofsky (The Wrestler, Black Swan) would do with the Biblical Epic story of Noah. Well, he definitely made it interesting and quite the conversation piece. The casting and acting in this movie is first rate and the mood is typical Aronofsky dark and moody. This ..

What happens when a college student Lucy (Scarlett Johannson) studying abroad gets abducted and implanted with a drug so that a druglord can use her as a mule? Utter nonsense is what! Basically, the drug bag breaks and seeps into her system which in return allows Lucy to access parts of her brain that no ..

With the sequel Dawn of the Planet of the Apes in theatres now, I thought I would post a quick review of it’s predecessor for those interested in the franchise. First of all, this movie was quite a surprise for me as I really was not expecting much(especially after the lackluster 2001 Tim Burton version.) ..
