‘Transformers: Age Of Extinction’ Trailer

I don’t think that Michael Bay and Zach Snyder are the same people, though the new trailer for “Transformers: Age Of Extinction” plays eerily similar to trailers for Snyder’s “Man Of Steel”– though at least Bay lets you know that everything is going to Hell pretty quickly. It appears this time around that humanity have […]

‘Enemy’ and ‘The Double’ Trailers

I don’t usually reserve one parking space for two vehicles in this ‘Trailer Park,’ though when two movies, on a superficial level, cover similar ground, Why not? Is there something going on, or is it just coincidence that two movies are coming out that involve people who happen to have doubles. First is Denis Villeneuve‘s […]

‘Skinwalker Ranch’ Trailer

When I first saw the title, ‘Skinwalker Ranch,’ I assumed that it was somehow related to porn. It’s not, though after learning that’s it’s “Inspired By True Events” I almost wished that it were. Because whenever a movie is “Inspired By True Events,” and that film is science fiction or horror, it generally means that […]

‘Bad Milo!’ Review

“”Bad Milo!” Is Disgustingly Hilarious!” (Spoilers follow) Imagine E.T., if instead of outer space, he came from inner space. And by “inner” I mean your ass. “Bad Milo!” is a film directed by Jacob Vaughan, and Executive Produced the Duplass Brothers (Jay and Mark).  Mark Duplass acts as well, and probably is most well-known as […]

‘Divergent’ Trailer

I understand that studios feel the need to create a new Hunger Games or “Twilight,” but this movie seems kind of silly. To start, how could dividing people up into groups promote any sort of peace?  That’s exactly the way things are now–except sub-divided a few billion more times–and no one is quite singing Kumbaya. […]

‘Brick Mansions’ Trailer

When I heard that Paul Walker had died earlier this year, I was surprised; I am not quite sure why I was, in hindsight.  People die all the time, and while large amounts of money can prolong life, no one has yet found a way to extend it appreciably. “Brick Mansions” is, I believe, the […]

‘Welcome To The Jungle’ Review

“For a movie with the same title as a Guns N’ Roses song, “Welcome To The Jungle” has no bite.” Rob Meltzer‘s “Welcome To The Jungle” stars Adrian Brody as Chris, an unappreciated office drone whom redeems himself  (sort of) on a corporate Outerward Bound-type of excursion. Rob Huebel (“The League,” “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D) plays […]

‘Haunter’ Review

“I thought I told you to mind your own business.  You are a Busy Betty.  And I don’t like Busy Betties.” –The Pale Man There’s a memorable scene in the first ‘Matrix’ film where Morpheus gives Neo the choice of taking the blue pill, which would mean that he could return to his everyday “life” […]
