Don’t take Liam Neeson‘s stuff. It’s a simple concept that earned over a quarter billion dollars worldwide with the film Taken. Now Neeson is back to chew gum and kick ass, and he’s all out of gum. With the worldwide success of the first movie a sequel was inevitable and you have to watch Taken…
I love the controversy surrounding Killer Elite. The film is based upon a novel entitled The Feather Men, which claims to be true (
more at FilmSchoolRejects ) the way your roommate keeps claiming he doesn’t know who was looking up stuff online. Despite the fact that the author, Raunolph Fiennes, dubiously describes his story…
In life you can make a few sweeping statements, bears shit in woods, the Pope wears a funny hat and the Coen brothers don’t make bad movies. As Billy Bob Thornton states on the commentary for The Man Who Wasn’t There, they simply don’t suck. The Coen brothers have been making the best mainstream/art-house cross…
After the cinematic train wreck known as The A-Team, Liam Neeson would have to be crazy to work with director Joe Carnahan again, but it appears as though that’s exactly what he’s doing. Carnahan and Neeson must have a good off-screen relationship because Liam is set to star in Joe’s next project entitled The Grey,…

pursue a mission of bloodthirsty vengeance. She had been a happily married with…
The biggest problem with Countdown to Zero is that it’s such a single minded documentary. It’s powerful and informative to a point, but it still just comes across as fear-mongering, much like Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth, full of some really nice infographics and throws stats in your face, but not all of it is…
Raging Bull tells the incredible story of Jake La Motta, (De Niro) a boxer famed for being the first person to beat, the great, Sugar Ray Robinson in a professional bout. La Motta prided himself on never going down in a fight and in 1949 went on to become middleweight champion after beating Marcel Cerdan…
John Hillcoat aimed at new creator of cult with the adaptation of The road (2009) but after the little enthusiasm garnered by Lawless (2012) runs the risk of staying with the label of competent filmmaker that fails to exploit the stories that have between hands. Gives the feeling that has not developed the talent he…
Boxing has never been a sport that liked me too – if I want to watch two men giving milk in a ring, I prefer to opt for Wrestling, but I can’t think any other rivaling it in relation to their contributions to the seventh art. The most recent movie that aspires to join the…
In David Fincher’s black comedy drama Fight Club Edward Norton narrates his own story as a dysfunctional white collar worker trapped in a life devoid of any meaning or fulfilment. Depressed with his mundane isolated existence in a job which neither challenges nor inspires him, he continues to drifts through each day feeling lost and…
