World War Z - Movie Review

World War Z is loosely based on the wildly popular novel of the same name which was written by Max Brooks who just happens to be the son of famous director Mel Brooks. That little known fact doesn't really have anything to do with the movie, but I thought it was cool and worth mentioning so get over it. Brad Pitt isn't just the name you will see on the marquee, but he is also largely credited with getting this movie made as it has been a passion project of his for some time.

Iron Man 3 - Movie Review

Flight - Movie Review

It has been quite some time since Robert Zemeckis has directed a live action feature film and his return brings a lot of anticipation for a return to a quality standard that has given us such gems as Back to the Future, Forrest Gump, and Contact. Denzel Washington has also had a very storied career and his turn as the star of this movie also adds to the anticipation that Flight should be something truly special.

You'll notice, I did say "should".

The Grey - Movie Review

When I first sat down to watch The Grey, I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. The last movie I saw that was directed by Joe Carnahan was The A-Team which also had Liam Neeson in a starring role and was one of the best action movies I had seen in quite some time.
