Frankenstein Meets the Spacemonster Review 2007-11-09 04:51:45 By Luke Schnepe
First off if you have 80 minutes to waste and do nothing I would recommend not watching this movie. You would have more fun counting ants or watching grass grow. Frankenstein Meets the Spacemonster was pretty hard to watch. it was like watching “Endless Summer” meets any campy low budget [...]

Eldar Alexandrovich Ryazanov, the renowned master of comedies, one of the most beloved Soviet and Russian directors, has written/directed during his long career many films that don’t get old or outdated. They are beautiful, moving, funny, and unforgettable. Ryazanov created his own style of [...]

Blow review 2007-11-08 23:15:00 By Jeremy Ebert
Requiem For a Dream… Traffic… and then came Blow. The previous two films were about how narcotics spread wide and far across all elements of society and the damaging way in which they ruin lives. Blow, is about a boring guy who likes money and becomes the pre-eminent cocaine [...]

Ratatouille review 2007-11-08 05:56:31 By Jeremy Ebert
With the appealing greatness of Ratatouille, director/writer Brad Bird has staked a claim as one of the premier filmmakers of the new millenium. You’ll notice, that the phrase “animated motion picture” doesn’t appear in the previous sentence. This is because Bird is [...]

The Condemned Review 2007-11-16 10:15:04 By Luke Schnepe
So The Condemned is one of those movies that you find yourself sitting on the couch ridiculing when you first see the preview, but for some reason, months later you rent it and realize that you should have seen it in the theater for the full experience [...]

Step Up Review 2007-11-12 04:00:23 No Snobbies Awarded
By Mike “Cachibatches” Donohue
A charming young hip-hop dancing car thief (Tyler Gage) and his boys (one of whom has a digital belt buckle that flashes his name) break into and vandalize a school of the arts. Amazingly, the judge sentences him to community service- at the school. Get this for an original plot [...]
No Country for Old Men 2007-11-19 00:38:14 by Jeremy Ebert
You either love the Coen Brothers or you think they’re highly overrated. I’ve never met anyone who felt ‘meh’ about them. I - personally - fall under the guise of being a huge Coen Bros. fan. From their brilliant crime noir “Blood Simple” [...]

Snakes on a Plane Review 2007-11-24 05:19:42 By Mike “Cachibatches” Donohue
You know what your getting into with a title like SNAKES ON A PLANE. There are going to be snakes let loose on an airplane, and because snakes are frightening, for some reason, in defiance of almost all serpent behavior, they are going to attack people. Since it’s a movie [...]

A Beautiful Mind 2007-12-05 16:16:43 by Jeremy Ebert
Any film that’s based on a person’s life, becomes difficult to make, because a full life is hard to transcribe into a two hour window of time. The need to accentuate certain cinematic elements of a life that work well within the medium, [...]

Shoah 2007-12-16 10:48:46 By Jeremy Ebert
Before Steven Spielberg’s historically important and classic Schindler’s List, there was the Claude Lanzmann documentary Shoah (1985). Spielberg’s film about the Schindler Jews and the man they are named after, is inevitably one of the greatest films in the history of the [...]
Cool Hand Luke review 2007-12-12 18:36:43 By Jeremy Ebert
Once upon a time, Paul Newman was Tom Cruise, Russell Crowe and Brad Pitt all rolled into one - a man’s man movie star who made women giddy in their loin region. The epitome of Newman’s coolness, pun intended, was in 1967’s Cool [...]

In recent years, there has been Oscar nominations to be snared by those who dare to portray real life musical savants during the most turbulent of their lifetimes. Jamie Foxx became a respected actor with is winning portrayal of Ray Charles, Joaquin Phoenix further cemented his stature [...]
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street 2007-12-22 08:25:35 by Jeremy Ebert
Like James Dean, Paul Newman and Marlon Brando before him, Johnny Depp is a fucking Rock. Star. posing as a best actor of his generation talent. Blessed with a desire to adopt not-entirely-conventional characters in somewhat offbeat films over the course of years, [...]

Waterworld 2007-12-12 09:46:01 by Jeremy Ebert
By the late 80’s, Kevin Costner was a Hollywood movie star of the highest order. He was the king of the measured, almost unaffected performance. From 1986’s Silverado to 1990’s Dances with Wolves, he was “untouchable” - how many actors have a run of films like The [...]
