Based on the 1980 horror starring Scream Queen Jamie Lee Curtis, the Prom Night remake changes the story up a bit and really offers nothing more than a TON of cheap scares built around a rather ridiculous story.Screen cutie, the 22-year-old Brittany Snow is at the center of our story playing a high school senior along with five other twenty-somethings (Scott Porter is actually 28) and it's prom night. The biggest night of a high schooler's life... or so they say. Only problem, Donna (Snow) is still coping with the murder of her family a few years earlier at...
I felt indifference to 2005's "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe," and I feel indifference to its sequel, "Prince Caspian." There's something missing from this franchise, and three years ago the absence of persuasive content was baffling. Now, the clues are more apparent.When a magical train station whisks siblings Peter (William Moseley), Susan (Anna Popplewell), Edmund (Skandar Keynes), and Lucy Pevensie (Georgie Henley) back to the realm of Narnia, they learn that while one year has passed for them since their last vis...
Don't believe the trailers. This film is far less than they would like you to believe. As much as I wanted to love Street Kings and say that David Ayer was able to repeat the success he found with his Training Day script, it seems police corruption stories don't always work out.Keanu Reeves stars as police detective Tom Ludlow.

Yeah, he plants evidence here and there, but only on the bad guys, and they are typically dead when he is done with...
As a critic, when your option is to either see a movie at 10 PM the night before it comes out in order to review it or not see it at all my typical response is to skip it. I have done this numerous times before, but for some strange reason I was compelled to go see The Ruins. I had not seen the trailer and I had not read the graphic novel it's based on. The only thing I had really seen outside of the cool posters was this promotion, and it intrigued me enough to go see the film. Was I satisfied with my decision? Well, a little bit I guess...The Ruins centers...
A drama/comedy movie about two souls in their search of true love. There is Nadia (Marsha Timothy), a beautiful and successful journalist who constantly thinks that she will never find her ideal partner. A total and utter irony considering she is well-known for her love advices and guidelines of getting one, in the woman magazine she works for.But love is indeed unpredictable. It is Bambang (Tora Sudiro), a humble unadorned village-man, working as an administration employee in her office, who is able to capture her heart. It was his honest and sincer...
