Movie Review #51: Cabin in the Woods

Do you dare me to write 400 words about Cabin in the Woods without giving anything away? Dare accepted. 1. I love this movie. There’s four words right there. Hmmmm… what else can I say? 2. Thor is in this movie. That’s a fact. 3. This movie is Joss Whedon’s second best movie of the [...]

Movie Review #35: The Avengers

Yesterday, I was browsing the interwebs and came across a list. I was giddy! A LIST?!?! My favorite. It was a list of the top 10 greatest comic book movies of all time. In the blurb about the list, the writer announces that he and the staff have seen Avengers and yes it is on [...]

Movie Review #41: The Hunger Games

There was a point in this movie when I turned to Jess and I said “there has to be at least an hour left in this movie, right?” The problem is that she thought “Oh no! He’s bored. He’s counting down the time.” What was actually happening in my head was “There’s ONLY an hour [...]

Movie Review #146: Resurrect Dead

I’m a bit of a podcast nerd. I listen to far too many of them and I think that is the main reason I don’t know a lot about the best indie music out there right now. Got too many podcasts to listen to per day. Smodcast, Professor Blastoff, How Did This Get Made, Sklarbro [...]

Movie Review #144: The Muppets

Have you seen The Muppet movie yet? If not, why not? Do I have to hit you with a stick until you go? Are you not interested in fun or happiness?! GET OUT OF MY SIGHT, YOU NECROMANCER! … Whoa… that got heated really quickly. But it demonstrates my feelings toward this movie. I’m going [...]

Movie Review #135: Melancholia

I made it a point to go see Meloncholia as quickly as I could when it came out. I had a Monday to myself and decided to walk down to the Angelika to see it. The crowd was bustling even for a 10pm showing. I was excited to be around people that were excited to [...]

Movie Review #116: Drive

“Some Heroes are Real.” This quote really hits what is very interesting about this movie on so many levels. Four simple words, but it really gets to the bottom of what Nicolas Winding Refn was trying to accomplish in this film (and did so quite successfully). But the sentence is so loaded in the context [...]

Movie Review #112: Contagion

OK, really quickly I’ll make a point to tell you how I felt about this movie, but what I’d love to do is go through the performances and how much I enjoyed them. I really enjoyed this movie. It was so very very stressful. I spent as much time watching the movie wondering what was [...]

Movie Review #105: Fright Night (2011)

In my search for an image to add to this post, I found this Gem for the 80s original version of this movie… So, if you asked me (and you did when I reviewed it), I enjoyed the original Fright Night because of its overwhelming CAMP and because it actually had a few really good [...]

Movie News Weekend: 8/7-8/13

10. Swoon over Whitney Matheson. This spot is from now on forever saved for her to talk about movies in some way. Therefore, she is reviewing Attack the block here! 9. I am the rare person that DOES want a Highlander reboot. So here it is! 8. Peeks at the set of The Avengers. Looks [...]

Movie Review #90: Horrible Bosses

The simple way to go about reviewing this movie, in the classic MovieFight way, is to give you the countdown of Favorite Performances within. The beauty is I really loved everyone in this movie so this should be easy. 7. Kevin Spacey His was easily my least favorite performance. He was the hardass and that [...]

Movie Review #88: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2

Let me get this part out of the way before I go into my opinion/review of the movie… 3D. This is one of the few movies I’ve seen since the return of 3D that I would actually recommend. It was very good 3D and I thought, for a change, it was worth the money. There [...]

Movie Review #77: Super 8

July is going to be a berry berry good month for me and my Movie going. I haven’t been to the theatre a lot since moving here to NY mostly because it be EXPENSIVE! That aside… All the super hero movies! X-Men, Thor, Green Lantern, Captain America! I’m halfway through these and I’m pretty happy [...]

Movie Review #61: Bridesmaids

I’m going to have a hard time reviewing this movie, I can tell already. I wrote 2 paragraphs a minute ago, then promptly erased everything I had written. I started to write another post and now I have to write this caveat paragraph to start over. You see, in order to say what I want [...]

Movie Review #56: Source Code

I went and saw this movie on Wednesday night, but, I was excited to get the second round of the horror tournament started for my (though few, fervent) fans. Then Thor got out there and I had to talk about that, as it was slightly more relevant, but Source Code is still in theaters, so [...]
