Legion Review


Legion makes absolutely no sense. None. Zip. Nada. You cannot take what is presented in this story, mash it up, flip it around, and make it so. You can’t even stretch logic to help it out.

Pandorum Review


If you can imagine Alien without the twisted mind of H.R. Geiger, you have the visual design of Pandorum.

Smart People Review


Smart People isn’t a movie about smart people. You may think that for some reason or another, but it’s actually about miserable, depressed, completely unlikable people. However, that title is not one that would fit on a marquee. Smart People’s strength lies in its characters, easily helped along by fine performances from Dennis Quaid, Thomas [...]

The Day After Tomorrow Review


The Day After Tomorrow is supposed to scare you into thinking the world could plunge into a massive, deadly winter sometime around, well, the day after tomorrow. It doesn’t. Instead, audiences are given a ridiculous, hilarious, campy tale of a father looking for his son amidst the worst storm mankind has ever experienced. Wisely spacing [...]

Flight of the Phoenix (2004) Review


A remake of a solid 1965 survival movie, Flight of the Phoenix is a routine, dull, and standard drama. The characters are the expected stereotypes, the conflicts predictable, and the tension lacking. Only the special effects and plot twist highlight this rather dreadful thriller. After their plane crash lands in the middle of the Gobi [...]
