Jim Henson’s talents were not just in puppeteering, but in imagination.

Back-Up Plan is almost a total wash, saved ever so briefly by Anthony Anderson who plays a father at the playground…

It’s as respectful a remake as you’ll find, just with a tweaked tone and more familiar cast.

Some excerpts from a chat with former Ray Harryhausen producer Arnold Kunert detailing the recent Blu-ray release of Jason and the Argonauts, and others.

Bounty Hunter does almost nothing right, a terribly contrived, stupid, idiotic, and entirely predictable mess that falls right in with every other modern romantic comedy.

Everyone watching is there for the imagination and otherworldly beasts Harryhausen crafted, from the Harpies to the Hydra.

At times, it is a bit much, overdone, and even gaudy, although there is a reason for it.

If Fred Dekker’s Monster Squad was the realization of what it was like to be a kid obsessed with monsters, Night of the Creeps is what that obsession turns into as an adult.

This is brain-dead cinema, where the fast and loose science is just sort of there in an attempt to stop people from thinking too long.

About ten minutes out of the movie from the time of this review, most of the film feels like a distant memory, the few bland R-rated jokes lost in a sea of teen sex comedies already forgotten.
