Pirate’s of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest Blu-ray set review

Disney’s top-grossing live action movie of all-time, featuring Johnny Depp’s lovable pirate-gone-through-detox, Captain Jack Sparrow (although, that may change as of this Memorial Day weekend), has been remastered for the ultra-glorious Blu-ray High Definition format. Now I was huge fan of the Pirate’s of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest Standard DVD disc edition, when that ….

Platoon film review

Like no other movie could tell, Platoon shows us categorically that war – and especially the Vietnam War – is hell. The story is vintage Oliver Stone – based on his own experiences in the bush with only a few moments of fictionalization. In Platoon, Charlie Sheen plays a young and naive Private Chris Taylor, ….

The Saint film review

Infused with a backstory to set up the past of its nameless hero (Val Kilmer) as something of a "rogue James Bond with a guilty conscience and a Volvo," The Saint is as improbable as it is entertaining. With a plot revolving around a successful cold fusion experiment developed by miniskirt-clad scientist Emma (Elizabeth Shue) ….

Shanghai Noon film review

The American movie studios are bastards when it comes to taking highly talented Asian directors and actors and pushing them into the American consciousness, invariably stereotyping and watering down the raw talent and energy of the individuals to increase their acceptance in American culture. Jet Li, Tsui Hark, Ringo Lam, Chow-Yun Fat, Michelle Yeoh and ….

Showtime film review

Rodney Dangerfield knew it. You can’t get respect being funny. Nobody gets anywhere unless you’re taken seriously. At least that’s the company line these days in Hollywood, where it seems most of the entertainment industry’s best funnymen are becoming more interested in eliciting tears than laughter. It is really quite ironic then that the one ….

Star Wars: A New Hope film review

When the first Star Wars films came along, they filled a collective need. Movies had gotten too serious — too much realism, not enough escapism. It was a time when audiences wanted to escape from the headlines – as we still do – and return to moral, and cinematic, simplicity. George Lucas delivered the goods. ….
