Why Big Name Actors Are Not Always Worth Their Price Tag

Movies – There is nothing more appealing to some movie fans than an all-star lineup of A-list actors. Movies like the Ocean's trilogy, Heat and The Departed all caused quite the commotion when they were first introduced.

Movies, Comics and Oil

Movies – The comic genre has been a major player in the movie scene for longer than most of us have been alive, but it's only over the last decade or so that comics have become the uncontested kings of movie box offices everywhere. Movie nuts and comic book geeks have lovingly embraced most of the super hero movies with only a few exceptions (Incredible Hul

Review: You Don't Mess with the Zohan

Movies – From Israeli commando to New York hairstylist, Adam Sandler's latest creation is a bastion of raunchy comedy, with plenty of not so subtle political ideology. Flanked by his trusty sidekick Rob Schneider, Sandler unleashes his one of a kind and over the top comedy that hits the mark on many occasions but unfortunately, also misses rather magnificen

Who Says We Have Bad Taste?

Movies – We movie viewers have pre-maturely decided that our taste in movies leaves a lot to be desired. The commonly used phrases of "they don't make them like they used to," or "big budget has ruined movies," is used by contemporary movie enthusiasts to explain our perceived poor taste in the world's favorite pastime. But is there trut

Bollywood Oi!

Movies – One of my more intrusive friends has taken up the dubious yet somewhat heroic act of periodically nagging me to watch the pride and joy of Indian entertainment: Bollywood. Being an ignoramus of titanic proportions when it comes to South Asian entertainment, I was instantly turned off by my companion's unceremonious persistence. It was by sheer, bib

The Sequel Syndrome

Movies – Having recently watched the new Harold and Kumar movie, I can safely say that my patience with big business entertainment has finally come to an end.

The Demise of the Movie Theatre

Movies – Gone are the days where Movie Theatres across the globe ruled the entertainment world. Gone are the days of glamorous carpets, sticky floors and make out sessions in dark, secluded corners. The obvious decline in Movie Theatres should in no way be interpreted as a decline in Movies themselves. Theatres are after all, simply one method in presenting
