Movie Review: Pinocchio
Robert Zemeckis' "Pinocchio" is a slick and soulless telling of the beloved story, and one of the most forgettable of Disney's recent remakes.

Movie Review: Dracula Untold
It appears the train that started with Stephen Sommers’ The Mummy (1999) has yet to fully derail. Coming just four years after the failed revival of The Wolfman (2010), Universal, unable to tear itself away from the action-adventure spectacle when it comes to its movie monster greats, has decided to introduce a new film to the fold, this time revealing the origins of monster favorite Dracula in Dr...[Read More]
Trailer Trashin’: It’s Elves vs. Dwarves vs. Men in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug
Hello again, dear readers, and I hope a lot of you enjoyed Thor: The Dark World over the weekend. In the meantime, this week’s Trailer Trashin’ column takes another look at my most anticipated movie of the rest of the year, Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.

This week’s installment of Trailer Trashin’ looks at one of those trailers, which a lot of you probably saw before Man of Steel – the teaser trailer for The Hobbit: The Desol...[Read More]
Trailer Trashin’: Super Bowl XLVII Movie Spot Roundup!
Well, another Super Bowl has come and gone – congratulations to the Baltimore Ravens on their victory, and good job to the San Francisco 49ers, too. But for people like me, who are cinephiles and not football fans, the main thing that the Big Game has to offer is the new TV spots for upcoming movies. This year, there were seven movie spots during Super Bowl XLVII, and on this week’s Trailer ...[Read More]
Movie Review: The Raven
The Raven, starring John Cusack as the classic horror author Edgar Allen Poe, is director James McTeigue’s third movie. This time around McTeigue takes slight step in a different direction from his two previous films (V for Vendetta and Ninja Assassin), which were largely reliant on action scenes to propel the story forward. While The Raven has its fair share of action, the plot is actually propel...[Read More]
Movie Review: The Three Musketeers
Early on in The Three Musketeers, a guard smirks at a captured Porthos (Ray Stevenson) and says, “For a man of your reputation, I expected better.” I guess, by now, it’s sort of a waste to say the same of Paul W.S. Anderson. His first major studio effort, Mortal Kombat (his first actual film was the low-budget Shopping with a then-mostly unknown Jude Law), though based on a video game, was a surpr...[Read More]
