Arthur Christmas is a great movie to watch during the winter holidays. My daughter and I really enjoyed watching this movie. It had a different view about the image of Santa Claus, instead the old fashion way like riding in a sleigh with reindeers. It was a high-tech version in which Santa is driving in a sleigh [...]

Jurassic Park was the first film I ever saw that wasn’t specifically meant for kids, and it is the film that established my love of movies and everything about them. I’m excited to see it get a re-release, even if it is in 3D. The film is set to return in April, 2013, just in [...]

After last summer’s Cars 2, Pixar found themselves in a position they’d never been in before: they were vulnerable. Cars 2 was a naked cash grab, their first poorly received film, and the sequel didn’t even match the numbers of the first entry when it came to merchandise and box office. Pixar stumbled, and anyone [...]

World War Z is an excellent book, but none of that is on hand here. The book is an oral history of the zombie apocalypse, spanning continents and cultures. The film centers on Brad Pitt and his family, so you can kind of see this as a big budget Walking Dead. Marc Forster, the director [...]

Back in June Paramount pulled G.I. Joe: Retaliation off their summer schedule and moved it to next spring, supposedly for a 3D upgrade but most likely because of poor test screenings and a lack of Channing Tatum. The flick’s been retooled and spruced up, so now Paramount has to start promoting the movie all over [...]

Fox held a live chat with Hugh Jackman and director James Mangold to give a behind the scenes look at next year’s The Wolverine, and most of it is the standard bright and cheery publicity nonsense. We did learn that the film would be in 3D though, and we also learned the film would actually [...]

Cloud Atlas is the kind of film critics and movie lovers dream about. It is an ambitious, unapologetic exploration of what it means to be human. It’s Art with a capital A, and Film with a capital F. It is not just the best film I’ve seen this year, it is also one of the [...]

Bruce Willis has had a good year with appearances in Moonrise Kingdom and Looper, two films that will most likely end up on my 2012 Top Ten list. With that in mind, I can’t begrudge him cashing a big check and headlining the fifth Die Hard entry. I’m not excited by this trailer, and I’ll [...]

A remake of Evil Dead was inevitable, but with Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell serving as producers and advisers this one has a fighting shot of being pretty good. Toss in a script that’s been punched up by Oscar winner Diablo Cody and now I’m plenty intrigued. That trailer seals the deal for me: this [...]

Iron Man is my least favorite Marvel franchise, but even I’m intrigued by that trailer. It helps knowing Shane Black is taking the directorial reigns from Jon Favreau for this entry in the Stark saga. Favs would make a great car commercial director, and the first Iron Man was basically a car commercial when you [...]
