Constantine

Constantine Coverart

Keanu Reeves has come a long way since the days of Bill & Ted. He really came into his own when given the part of Neo in The Matrix. The film Constantine suits him well as the character is very dark, with not too much emotion. This seems to be the type of character he is used to playing in many of his recent films, including the up coming The Day the Earth Stood Still. Constantine is a film full of action, drama and some scares, which is all a good thing and really is a thrill ride kind of a film. Read the rest of this entry »

The Replacement Killers

The Replacement Killers Cover Art

Chow Yun-Fat might not be a name known as well to those of us living in North America, at least not before the 2003 hit Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. In his native China he has been a superstar for some time, redefining the martial arts film. Today he’s almost as well known here. The Replacement Killers was his first Western film. It’s one of those moments in cinema history where many audiences left without really knowing what to make of it all. I remember the first time that I saw the film, and I still don’t know how to quite describe it. The simple explanation is that it’s a typical Asian tough guy film like we’ve seen from Jackie Chan for about 20 years now Read the rest of this entry »

Eraser

Eraser Coverart

There have been plenty of great action films that have starred Arnold. He was a huge box office draw in the 90s. In the summer of 1996, Warner Brothers made a boad load of cash with Eraser. Box office money does not always indicate a great movie, mind you. Worldwide, the gross was over 220 million dollars. That is an insane amount of cash for a film where the acting is suspect, and the storyline is totally predictable. Definitely not one of Arnold’s best, not by a long shot.

Hostel - Part II

Hostel - Part II Cover Art

I have to give Eli Roth some deserved credit here. With the success of his disturbing Hostel, there must have been an incredible temptation to deliver merely more of the same and be content with raking in the millions without actually having to work for it. Money For Nothing, as the song goes. The risk here is that the frenzied fans of the original would leave this film somewhat disappointed, as I imagine many were. That’s not to say that Hostel Part II doesn’t contain some very Hostel-like moments of torture and gore, but it’s safe to say this film is not nearly as gratuitous as the first. Instead Roth decided to bring us a far more developed story this time around. We get far more insight into the Club and how it works. Read the rest of this entry »

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

It’s year 4 at Hogwarts, and for me this was the best Potter of the first five films. Hogwarts plays host to the prestigious Triwizard Tournament, and that means putting up students from two other wizard schools. Here we get an inkling of just how large the Potter universe truly is. Up until now our experience has only taken us through the world of Hogwarts and its peripheral environs. Read the rest of this entry »

A Clockwork Orange

A Clockwork Orange Cover Art

Do you enjoy a little Beethoven with your ultraviolence? Stanley Kubrick’s controversial A Clockwork Orange has arrived on Blu-ray Hi-Def (as the TV adds now like to call our BD format). Often imitated, sometimes misunderstood, A Clockwork Orange is a classic no matter your opinion of the film. Personally, this isn’t my favorite Kubrick film (that would have to be 2001), but it’s essential viewing nevertheless. Whether you choose to view it on this Blu-ray might be another?story….

2001: A Space Odyssey

2001 Cover Art

This could be either one of the greatest home cinema experiences of your lifetime, or you may be bored to tears. Thus is the dilemma of 2001: A Space Odyssey. Either way, go buy this Blu-ray, that way you can at least feign serious film collector.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

It’s year 3 at Hogwarts, and behind the scenes there have been some significant changes in the Harry Potter universe. Chris Columbus gave up the directing duties to Alfonso Cuaron. While Cuaron was faithful to the traditions established by Columbus, I do believe he did a rather nice job of adding his own dark touches to the Hogwarts landscape. Whether it was a new director or simply greater maturity, there is no question that Cuaron got better performances out of the three major actors. Read the rest of this entry »

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

It’s year two at Hogwarts, and now we know who everyone is, so there isn’t going to be any time wasted setting up characters and relationships. I must say that the three actors playing Harry, Hermione, and Ron (Radcliffe, Watson, and Grint) pull off the chemistry in a pleasantly convincing manner. You believe these kids now have some history together, so we’re off to Hogwarts and a new adventure before you can blink your eye. Because of the great setup provided in the first film, the sequel has every potential to be better than the original, and Chamber Of Secrets lives up to that potential. Read the rest of this entry »

Underworld

Underworld deals with a war that has been going on for several centuries involving vampires and werewolves, and centers around a human descendant of the werewolves whose blood is deemed capable of creating a more powerful creature. At first glance it could come of as a cheesy horror gore fest but they really do a great job of not making that so. It is first and foremost an action movie. They even manage to mix in some emotion and the beginnings of a love story between a vampire (Kate Beckinsdale) and the human/werewolf character played by Scott Freedman.
