If you are looking for some weird and totally whacked out movie, look no more. This is as twisted as it gets, a medical school dropout that is interested in electronics made a perfect gift, a lawnmower that has a remote. While playing with it his fiancée accidentally gets chopped up by it, leaving only [...]

Problems with The Hobbits(is)
Well, we all know that Peter Jackson is producing this prequel to his ultra-successful Lord of The Rings trilogy, and so far director Guillermo del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth, Hellboy, Mimic) was an obvious and pretty reasonable choice. Although he had made some controversial comments, in a 2006 interview he was quoted saying “I don’t like [...]

More Screams coming our way…
Yep, it’s another reboot of a long forgotten franchise. Since the first three movies did not succeed in their attempts to explain why someone dresses as some weird picture, our old buddy Wes Craven decided to make another slasher movie. So far almost everyone from the previous sequels have confirmed their rolls in this milking [...]

Upcoming Thor movie
Here’s another movie based on a Marvel comic to see the light of day(or night). Movie is directed by Mr. Kenneth Branagh, which is a pretty odd choice if you ask me. So far only movie with remotely similar theme is Frankenstein, and I am not sure that he will be able to create that [...]

Lost finale… Now I am truly lost, and angry…
First of all, I know that this is a movie site, but still I must say something about a series that I watched for six years, and enjoyed in… The last episode was really a surprise to everyone, and I do not think that in a good way. As failblog.org so easily explained, it was [...]

Video game movies that do not suck…
Uwe Boll (Far Cry, House of the Dead, Alone in the Dark, BloodRayne, Postal) is not going to direct any of these new movies. That is enough of evidence that they will not suck. I mean, almost every video game that has been turned into a movie was a complete disaster and almost every video [...]

Iron Sky
Speaking of original ideas, this one has pretty cliche concept that may actually work. This is a science fiction comedy about Nazis that are attacking the Earth from outer space. Oh yeah, and they have the base on the moon as the center of their operations. When I see words, Nazi, Space, Attack and comedy [...]

New Mad Max movie, Fury Road
Yep, it seems that almost every good movie that has been made in the last millennium is going to get a sequel. Since I am a great fan of post-apocalyptic movies, I am hoping that they are going to do this one properly. First of all, Mel is not going to be starring. This is [...]

New Alien Movies
20th Century Fox had hired Ridley Scott to direct a prequel to the movie Alien, also rumors surfaced that he will be making another prequel to prequel. So we are looking at two new alien flicks. Although Ridley could hire someone to direct the movie for him, leaving producing to him, he decided to take [...]

20,000 Leagues Under The Sea craze
Well, after Disney announced that he will be making 20k movie directed by David Fincher (Alien 3, Se7en, Fight Club) I was really surprised. Hardcore director and Disney, it all looks like it is going to be turned into another kiddie-friendly flick with some big names(not that I am against it). And this would be just another [...]

Megan Fox kicked out of Transformers 3?
After Megan called her director Hitler, apparently Micheal Bay decided to kick her loose from Transformers 3. Is this a wise move, only time will tell. Personally I think that this is something that Transformers series needed, you already have mind-blowing CGI, giant robots kicking the crap out of each other and great action scenes, [...]
Many will argue that John Carpenter started to lose it with this flick, and that is true to some extent. There a lot of inconsistencies that plague the movie, and that are plain overlooked. For me the most annoying thing was something that I could not quite define, and than it hit, its the camera. [...]
Now here`s a good movie for valentines day, well, at least I think its good. At first it seemed like another American stupid milking comedy that 70 million budget spent on actors and Satan knows what. But when I checked it out it proved rather refreshing. Very intelligent and profound it resonates with most of the [...]
Roman Polanski, a very controversial director(check out documentary Wanted And Desired) made this masterpiece back in 1992, and keep in mind that Mimi is his wife from 1989. The older looks of the movie may put off some people but give it a chance. The acting is awesome, and Peter Coyote did an amazing job [...]
As everybody else I had my doubts about this movie, since the original was a fucking masterpiece. But the new title, cast and director looked promising. And they kept their promise. This is not a remake of the original but an entirely new movie that builds its own world in the swampy and decayed New [...]
I think that only the latest Screamers movie was something that I hated and is based on stories of Philip K. Dick (A Scanner Darkly, Impostor, Screamers, Total Recall,Blade Runner). Directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Cruise and Max von Sydow, this movie could not fail. Well I guess that big budget and great [...]
The latest Spierig brothers movie kicks ass! It is not as funny as their previous flick Undead from 2003, but it delivers on many levels. First of all, the story is quite original with few interesting twists, after that we have the main thing about this movie and that is the visual quality that is [...]
You knew that this day would come, and it came. Huh, I did not see Avatar in 3d, or in a theater or under the influence of drugs, and I guess that influenced my review greatly. First of all I must separate two aspects of this movie, one is the special effects and the second [...]
It is very hard to classify the genre of this movie, it combines horror, mystery and thriller elements that come together in a blend that is very interesting to watch. And I am sure that it will leave you wondering at the end, what the fuck happened? It is the intention of the director to [...]
This little gem(such a classical beginning for a movie review, I shall not use any more ) has been hidden from the public for a long time. When it comes to claymation movies, you know that hard work is just one of the ingredients, the next one is a story and oh boy does this [...]
Based on a true story, this phenomenal movie established Will Smith as a serious actor, capable of performing more demanding roles. Following the life of Chris Gardner, and his struggle to survive in this cruel world with his son it perpetuates our own personal pursuit of happiness. Filled with heart breaking moments that will bring [...]
Coming to us from famous Joel Schumacher(The Number 23, Phone Booth, 8MM, Falling Down) this movie is surprisingly not mainstream, big production effort. It rather represents an independent production with good visual effects. The story has great ingredients but the way they are cooked is somewhat questionable. Nazi experiments, Vikings, satanism, supernatural powers and the clash between good and [...]
Directed by famous (and now ultra popular Tim Burton) this movie is highly underrated. I guess everyone expecting something more in line of his classic movies, and not this type of parody. So before you check it out, you might wanna check out some of the hype sixties, seventies and even eighties cheesy movies of [...]
After Burn After Reading this is the next movie coming to us from Coen brothers. Although I was really a fan from start this one is kind of illusive to me. Maybe this is due to the strong Jewish background of the movie and my lack of knowledge regarding the subject, I do not know. Larry Gopnik [...]
Coming to us from famous director Adrian Lyne(Lolita, Fatal Attraction, Nine 1/2 Weeks, Flashdance) this movie tackles a more serious theme then his previous projects. Visually very impressive and content-wise just plain beautiful this bomb from the eighties can still evoke emotions(that is greatly due to the amazing performance by Tim Robbins). Jacob Singer is [...]
I expected more from this British dark humor comedy. I mean, the title of the movie is I Sell The Dead, and they threw in all bunch of funny stuff in it, like vampires, grave robbing and other interesting stuff, but somehow it was not as phenomenal as I expected. Do not get wrong, this [...]
As much as I like Ricky Gervais and his style of comedy I must admit that his directing skills are not that good. He has a good idea on how to make things work but as for the long run goes he tends to lose himself in overshot scenes that will likely bore the watcher. So, [...]
If you have not seen Peter Sellers yet this is your chance. He stars in this sixties craze flick and he has done it so masterfully that it is funny even today. Rowan Atkinson and his character Mr. Bean is the closest example of the type of humor that you can expect in this movie. Hrundi V. Bakshi [...]
Directed by Clint Eastwood this thriller about a cat and mouse game between an aging detective and the serial killer is somewhat a beginning of Clint`s transition towards more serious subjects in his movies. After the latest chase with the killer Terry McCaleb has a heart attack and after the successful transplant he is approached by [...]
Galaxy Quest is a movie about Star Trek and their fans. It is really funny and I liked how they derived humor both from the series and the real life events. So, cast of the cult TV show (that is almost the same as Star Trek) is a strange group of individuals, each with his [...]
