I remember when Darren Aronofsky was attached to direct his own take on Wolverine and I was super-duper pumped about it but now it seems like The Wolverine is just struggling to make itself known in a crowded summer of high profile blockbusters. Without a visionary talent like Aronofsky, the bad taste left in people’s...
You may have seen the headlines strewn across internet banners that Iron Man 3 has bested the opening weekend of The Avengers internationally, putting it on track not only to be the biggest box office monster of the summer but also entering it in a position to duke it out for one of the...
If you’re like me, you’ve been trying your best to avoid the onslaught of Star Trek Into Darkness marketing.

Even though Pain and Gain is maybe Bay's most mature film to date and he legitimately tries to dissect an nearly incomprehensible ethos, his own over-embellishing and tacky directorial choices…
Themes of innocence lost and re-invigoration of character are beautifully woven into the subtext and come across as potent and intoxicating, allowing Mud to be something to dwell on rather…
When I heard that Arrested Development would officially return nearly seven years after its cancellation, like a time-abiding Jesus, I was both ecstatic and worried. The experience of AD was short and sweet – a steady crescendo that built upon its jokes episode-after-episode to side-splitting hilarity- but it left off on such a high...
Michel Gondry is definitely a hit or miss talent (he’s directed such masterpieces as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind amongst duds like The Green Hornet) but his latest film, Mood Indigo (L’Écume des jours), which is set in his home tongue of French, looks like a win to me.
