Movie Review: Crimson Peak
Sure, the story of Crimson Peak is familiar, but the way it’s presented and the places it goes are wholly original. The film is a gothic horror story, set in an imposing 19th-century British mansion plagued by ghosts. We’ve all seen these elements done and done again, but never with the black humor, emotional depth, and ravishing visual beauty that writer-director Guillermo del Toro brings to the ...[Read More]

Take a look and see if you agree. ABOUT THE FILM: CRIMSON PEAK: When her heart is s...[Read More]

Movie Review: Thor: The Dark World
With Thor: The Dark World, Marvel continues their movie domination over rival DC Comics, and at this point, I don’t think there’s anything DC can do to catch up. Chronologically, Thor’s (Chris Hemsworth) latest appearance takes place one year after the events of Marvel’s The Avengers. The mighty one has spent his time away from Earth working on restoring peace within the nine realms. This ab...[Read More]
Trailer Trashin’: The Mighty Avenger Returns in Thor: The Dark World
Neill Blomkamp’s Elysium opened this past weekend, and while it hasn’t received the near-universal acclaim of its predecessor District 9, by most accounts it is pretty good. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get out to see the movie over the weekend, but I plan to see it sometime this week. This week’s new Trailer Trashin’ column takes another look at one of my most ant...[Read More]

Movie Review: The Avengers
I’ve mentioned several times in the past that I was apprehensive regarding an Avengers movie. Logistically, teaming up all of those major superheroes would be something most people couldn’t do successfully. As the project grew closer though and all the ancillary films were released, I started to think that a team-up movie of this scope could work. Then, Marvel signed Joss Whedon to co-write ...[Read More]
Movie Review: War Horse
It’s a curious thing to think that an award-ready Steven Spielberg World War I epic based on a raved-about stage play that is being released at Christmas could somehow still be considered under-the-radar. Coming just one week after his collaboration with Peter Jackson’s special effects team, The Adventures of Tintin, War Horse may suffer from this rare double release feat by being the more modestl...[Read More]
