Film Review: A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD (…or maybe just TO DIE)

GDTDH

[Note: This review contains minor spoilers.] My wife and I are HUGE movie fans. You could even say…film is “our life” in many ways. I work in “the industry” (although not as often as I’d like to), we met while working at a movie theater, we spend a lot of our free time watching movies [...]

Film Review: THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN

2012 brings us a new version of everyone's favorite web-slinger.

Film Review: HALLOWEEN (2007)

Leatherface...I mean, Michael Myers returns in Rob Zombie's catastrophe, HALLOWEEN. "Into the Dark"

[Note: This review contains spoilers.]  Let me start by saying that perhaps I’m not the best person to be reviewing this movie. Why?  Because the original Halloween is my favorite film of all-time, so maybe when I first saw this film in 2007, I went into the theater with too much “baggage”.  It’s possible I [...]
