Overhyped, yet overlooked is what Id say about this film. It seems as though this movie was designed in a Cast Away style to be a performance showcase for a actor. The fact the actor is the older Robert Redford I think that that alone makes the film stand out on its own. Contrived conception aside you can't deny Redford's ability and talent. Still its a good hour and a half watch.
Got to say that I had heard a lot of negative feedback concerning this movie. I thought with the talent involved Id give it a shot. Wasn't as bad as I expected going in, though it certainly goes for gold so to speak. Its clear that this is a film that is trying to be more high profile in a award season way than it has any right too. That being said the movie certainly drags in spots and is overt wordy, but about halfway through business picks up. I in particular like Brad Pitt's arc through his screen time as he seeming steals every scene he's in.

A lot of people are split on this remake. Some feel it follows the original too closely and doesn't different itself enough. Id disagree, there is really a push of technology in the film that keep it current and new, though you do have to wonder if in 15 year some of the things in this movie will seem dated already. This version of Carrie stayed true to its roots and Id say the cast is nothing but strong and in some cases picture perfect for the characters they are playing. Real emotional depth is felt throughout and you can forgive the fantastical powers element due to the emotional strength of the story and performances. Great showing.

Movies such as his one seem to be fading away, but at the same time to direct to dvd and digital market is flooded with run of the mill horror films that fall into a been there done that standard. This film seemingly in the vain of V/H/S has the tools to keep horror in the mainstream consciousness with its not taking itself too seriously approach, probably for the better. Overall there are flaws, one in my opinion that the film can at times push the comedy to hard, but it should be noted that there has always been a keep it light, let the audience breath and laugh mentality amongst some thriller/horror fans and filmmakers. For a theatrical release like this one, not a bad showing.

This return of the Riddick character is actually not too bad considering where the franchise left off. At times its almost funny how similar the plot is in some ways to the original Pitch Black, but the film makers made it fairly clear from the beg go they were taking this film back to its roots, so that was to be expected. With the low budget the crew had to work with i don't think you can hold many flaws against them.

Don't get me wrong I liked the first VHS, but the sequel only improved on what the first did well, although I'll admit I didn't expect much out of it this movie still kinda blew me away and shocked me. If you want to see a horror movie that you couldn't find in theaters or didn't know existed this is the one.
This side splitting release from the satirical animated series South Park includes all 14 episodes from the show's sixteenth season, following the foul mouthed students of South Park Elementary as they lampoon everything from wrestling to reality stars.

After the Avengers came out Marvel needed to have a great follow up and Iron Man was the perfect choice, whether the movie is the best of the franchise is debatable. Though taking what was their most established and perhaps their best received solo franchise and coming into 2013 was smart.

First off Hatchet, as a series is not the best and not even among horror do i think it is the best franchise, but, its a fun old school type of movie series that in my opinion has only gotten better. I believe that this third and possibly final entry is the best by far, now whether thats due to a new director, maybe?, though its a high point nonetheless.
