Gerald loves, loves, loves Coraline. Read his entire review right here.
Coraline is a wondrous and exciting children’s tale shown in 3D. Wondrous is only to be expected from the combination of film director Harry Selick (of The Nightmare Before Christmas) with Neil Gaiman’s book by the same title.

The Robot reviews the terrible movie “Doomsday” which was recently released on Blu-Ray
I will admit that during my exploration of the human animal, I have found myself on rare occasions feeling regret at the demise of what more liberal minded robots call the “Creator Species.” Then I process a “film” the likes of Doomsday and [...]

If Guy Ritchie and Woody Allen had an illegitimate love movie, it would be In Bruges. Part Cockney gangster shoot-‘em-up, part banter-driven stage comedy, In Bruges (pronounced “Broozh”) is a near excellent film that manages to (mostly) even pull off the Herculean task of keeping the audience seeing past Colin Farrell’s meticulously detailed Maxim-magazine-makeover-for-men look [...]

Rosie’s review on Transformers The Movie is truly classic
Wow. That … was … awesome! I actually think I may still be a little bit in shock, but I’m just too giddy to rest. I mean, obviously it sucked, but it sucked so absolutely perfectly that it was breathtaking. Honestly, I never thought I’d live to [...]

Stephanie’s writes about Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 in her new review:
With the new Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, the girls are in college and each of them looking to find their own way. Sounds clichéd, doesn’t it? That’s because it is. Clichéd plotlines make it hard to connect with the girls the second [...]

Traitor, is an excellent contemporary espionage drama. The story about bombings and terrorism could be ripped from the front pages of newspapers worldwide. Overall , the film has a solid impact via its focus on human values and CGI. Additionally, the film’s total absence of “spy [...]
