The audience of the new movie, Expendables 2, is wide and varied, but one thing is clear: The target audience of the movie is a bunch of retired superhero movie fans with inadequate taste in superheroes. Though the movie may bring together a bunch of middle-aged and retired people with a penchant for Marvel Comics, it lacks one other thing: class. Yes, the long awaited movie has conjured...

Fifty Shades of Grey is a book that's been igniting the forgotten loins of sex-deprived housewives across the world for the last few months. It's erotica for the desperate, and the whole of society has been buying into the author's lurid fantasies of a sexual romance gone awry. Are you yawning yet? With this tale comes the opportunity for Hollywood to make a little bit of money with the movie,...

It's official! Producer and Director, Kenny Ortega, who is responsible for the teenage idiocy that was Highschool Musical, is remaking Dirty Dancing. I can hear Patrick Swayze cursing in his grave from here. Although the cast has yet to be announced, we can be certain that it will more than likely feature people who cannot act, much less dance in a way that isn't degrading to the current...

The Final Destination franchise continues to pump out movies where kill-scenes are abundant, creative, and gruesome; which is enough to keep some of their audience entertained, but most people have grown to think of Final Destination as a repeating headache.

I wasn't thrilled when Anne Hathaway was cast as Catwoman in the upcoming Batman movie, but I accepted it because she had done well in other features.

I could even tolerate Christian Bale again, but it's sad when producers want to put a new spin...

Every year the movie industry spends millions of dollars resurrecting movies that were just fine to begin with and never truly dead. Why? So they can make more money off of the same idea with brand-new amateur "actors" and the stupidity of the current generation; who wouldn't know what a good movie was if it jumped up and slapped them. Hard! Classics and timeless films are being ruined because...

The movie, The Hangover, was a side-splitting comedy of comedic genius. While the entire plot of the movie centered around a drunken blackout, there were immaculately crafted jokes and perfectly timed comedic moments from each of the actors. Bradley Cooper and Zach Galifianakis, two stars of the film, saw giant growth spurts in their careers after the movie proved to be box office gold. Once...

Horror movies just aren't what they used to be and my all time favorite genre used to be zombies. It still is when I can find a decent zombie movie, but I do have a few issues with recent zombie films. 1. Zombies are decomposing creatures! After extensive internal tissue damage, the most warped and eaten away zombie figure should not be able to run faster than the living humans that it's...
