Joey McIntyre, Eliza Dushku, Mike O’Malley, Will Arnett. A Boston playwright stages a production in the back of an Irish pub.
On the face of it, everything about this movie looks moronic. Joey McIntyre, of New Kids on the Block fame, is in it. He’s also playing way too melodramatic for my tastes. So is Mike O’Malley, the guy from GUTS and ‘Yes, Dear.’ Eliza Dushku is in it, so you know it has to be crap. And Will Arnett has been cursed ever since ‘Arrested Development’s’ untimely demise. But it doesn’t look terrible. You have to give McIntyre the benefit of the doubt since Donnie Wahlberg has proven his detractors wrong, even though he isn’t really in good movies. It also looks reminiscent to the actual life of that guy that directed ‘Boondock Saints’ which by the documentary ‘Overnight’ is really interesting. I’m on the fence, but my instincts are not and they say stay away.
A war drama based in Vietnam where a US combat unit seaches for the Viet Cong in tunnels under Vietnam. Directed by Uwe Boll.
If anyone is familiar with Uwe Boll, then you’ll know that he doesn’t direct “normal” movies. All the comic geeks hate him, but they still go to see his movies which in turn gives him the success to continue making movies. Good job comic geeks. Well this looks like a “normal” movie in the sense that it’s not totally mind numbingly stupid. Good job Uwe Boll. Maybe those death threats will subside yet.
Based on a novel, a 16-year-old girl keeps a diary about he teenage life. A comedy/drama.
This is a Nickelodeon movie. Yes, Nickelodeon, the kid’s channel. Not Nickelodeons, the old timey movie theaters. Some idiot in a suit needs to get fired for greenlighting this. A bunch of idiots in suits need to get fired for this. While you’re at it, fire everyone at Nickelodeon excluding Marc Summers and Donkey Lips. They wouldn’t have greenlit a kids movie about thongs and kissing.
Keanu Reeves, Forest Whitaker, Common, Hugh Laurie. A crime/drama where a cop is implicated for killing another officer, and he is forced to go against the other officers.
15 seconds into this, you’re wondering why someone would ruin such a great film as ‘Training Day.’ Well wonder no longer. That guy is David Ayer, the writer behind said ‘Training Day.’ On IMDb it says that his movies often involve the LAPD. Whoah!
Based on the true story of a suburban housewife who kept a girl in her basement during the 1960’s. A drama with Catherine Keener, Ellen Page, James Franco, Bradley Whitford.
I thought it was alright to lock kids in the basement in the ’60s. You could basically do anything short of, well I’m drawing a blank right now. Ellen Page should get locked in the basement for that haircut. Heyoooo. I’m so mean.
A metermaid has an adverse reaction to his medication and now thinks he’s a superhero. A comedy/drama. Michael Rapaport, Josh Peck (that fat kid from ‘Drake and Josh.’)
Holy crap, this looks awesome! I always thought Michael Rapaport was a great actor until he did that dreadful ‘The War At Home,’ and hopefully now he’s come to his senses. Granted, this movie came out in the UK in 2006 and no one in America will probably ever see it, which means it doesn’t matter.
A husband and wife are placed in witness protection after seeing something they weren’t meant to see. A hitman then begins to follow them. A drama thriller. Diane Lane, Thomas Jane, Mickey Rourke, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Johnny Knoxville.
Doesn’t look half bad. I’m talking about the movie, not Mickey Rourke’s face. I know, I know. It’s cliche’ to make fun of Mickey Rourke’s appearance, but he looks like a cheese grater came to life and had an issue with something Mickey Rourke said.
Vivica A. Fox, Louis Gossett Jr., some other people. A crime drama where a homemaker becomes a suspect in a murder. Then she finds out her husband has been leading a double life.
I’m sure you already knew this was going to suck since Vivica A. Fox is in it. This isn’t Lifetime worthy. This isn’t even BET worthy, and they show ‘In Living Color.’ It’s like if Tyler Perry used guns frequently and the transvestite he dresses as was at some cake convention the whole movie.
Chris Cooper, Rachel McAdams, Pierce Brosnan, Patricia Clarkson. A crime drama based in the 40’s where a cheating man plots his wife’s death so he won’t have to get a divorce.
I’m surprised this movie looks as good as it does. Most films based in the 40’s, excluding ‘Back to the Future,’ are boring or too slapstick to be anything enjoyable. This treads the line pretty well with film noir, comedy, and crime. I’ll forgive Rachel McAdams for trying to dye her hair like Storm from the X-Men. I wanted her to dress like Wonder Woman. I guess we got our wires crossed.
