The on-camera review with clips is here and the post about plot questions and the ending of “Inception” is here. A good fantasy film creates a wholly original world or concept convincingly. A good science-fiction film asks questions about our humanity while bending the laws of nature. “Inception” is all of this and more. In […]

I was fortunate enough to be in New York City this past weekend, one of the few cities showing “The Kids Are All Right” before its wider release later this month. I’ve been anticipating this film since I saw the trailer a few months ago during “Greenberg”. I jabbed whoever was sitting next to me and […]

I kind of adore Nicolas Cage. My friends think he’s a terrible and unforgivably over-the-top actor, and I can’t totally disagree. But Cage has an ability, and I think he’s totally aware of this, to elevate a movie to a completely different mode of enjoyment that always pays off. I mean, I love this video […]

Few filmmakers have done more to help children cultivate an appreciation for being scared than Steven Spielberg. Not only did he make one of the scariest PG-rated movies ever with “Jaws,” he also was largely responsible for the genesis of the PG-13 rating in 1984.

Viewing them years later, no matter the length of time which may have passed, I’m instantly transported back in time to that darkened theater, fond memories, and childhood wonderment.

This review is from ABC KTKA-49, where Eric’s reviews run every Friday night on the 6′ o clock news. His rating for “Despicable Me” — the Swiss Fist — stands for complete neutrality and is very rarely used; only in the most mediocre of circumstances. “Despicable Me” is the first computer-animated film from a new […]

As usual, the Scene-Stealers Army didn’t disappoint. We had a contest to win passes to see INCEPTION this coming Monday night and we asked our readers to answer this question: If you had the ability to plant an idea in someone’s dreams, what would the idea be and who would you ‘incept’ the idea into? […]

Today’s installment of Insomniac Movie Theater, where we celebrate the best/worst in late-night movie programming comes from contributor Vincent Scarpa. Trevan McGee will be back next week with another not-so-classic. Maybe it’s because I’m from Jersey, but I can’t help loving “Coyote Ugly”. The Comcast listing gives it one star, it has a 21% rating on […]
