Ocean’s Eleven Review


Ocean’s Eleven works due a stunning ensemble cast, all playing complete, believable characters trying to rob three Las Vegas casinos. More importantly, the cast is able to work together brilliantly, using small eye movements and head motions to convey their thoughts about the people they’re working with. Also critical is that you root for this [...]

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III Review


The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are sent back in time in this third sequel, back to feudal Japan. Raphael, typically the one with a short temper, befriends a small child. It is a tender moment, one that makes you think writer/director Stuart Gillard is making a genuine attempt to expand the characters. Nope, it is [...]

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze Review


It is readily apparent Ninja Turtles II is not going to be the same. Instead of conversation to introduce the characters, the Turtles brawl a gang of electronics thieves. They end up on screen just past the three-minute mark, quickly satisfying an undoubtedly Turtle-hungry audience of kids. The unnamed crooks show little surprise or shock [...]

The 7th Voyage of Sinbad Review


7th Voyage of Sinbad is classic Hollywood. It is a grand-scale adventure, loaded with goofy costumes, magic, monsters, women, villains, and heroes. It’s not a great movie, with long stretches of dull dialogue and wooden performances, but the special effects of Ray Harryhuasen can make anything a classic. Not surprisingly, that’s the case here. Regardless [...]

It Came From Beneath the Sea Review


It is rather surprising that more creature films don’t feature giant squids. We’ve had all sorts of radioactive monstrosities over the years, yet the giant squid is real. Logic dictates that something real is far more frightening than something that isn’t. Though not a giant squid (it’s an octopus), It Came From Beneath the Sea [...]
