Review: Starship Troopers 3: Marauder 2008-08-08 02:34:36 Starship Troopers
3: Marauder
A Film Review by Reginald Williams
Rating: 6.5/10
Starship Troopers 3: Marauder (ST3) is a film that could have been one of the best, if not the best, in the Starship Troopers series. Unfortunately, the comedy aspects of the film and multiple badly scripted segments hamper its cinematic appeal. ST3 script was better in [...] Read more:Starship
Tron 2 Comic-Con Trailer 2008-08-05 11:00:06 The Comic
-Con International: San Diego Tron 2 (Tr2n) footage/trailer is badass for three reason: Jeff Bridges has reprised his role as Kevin Flynn from the first Tron, the CGI is badass and the action is good. At first I thought why make a sequel to such a crappy movie. Sure Tron had a great concept [...] Read more:Trailer

I find this absolutely fascinating. With the release of the Watchmen trailer, Fox knows it will be a blockbuster and now that the film has been [...]

As parody-comedies go, Tropic Thunder is at the near top of its game. It has great actors to portray its character, a clearly defined plot, moments of absolute hilarity and some nice action sequences. Writer, producer, actor and director Ben Stiller has created a film with enough satire, [...]
