Reviews Without Pity: WALL-E

Mon Jul 7, 2008 7:54 AM EDT

In, WALL-E, this summer's big budget kids' movie, Pixar unsurprisingly proves yet again that it's really the only division of the modern Disney empire still worth a damn. (Sorry, Hannah.)

Reviews Without Pity: The Incredible Hulk

Mon Jun 16, 2008 12:29 PM EDT

Louis Leterrier's The Incredible Hulk has been described by many as a "correction" of the "mistake" that was director Ang Lee's 2003 Hulk.

Reviews Without Pity: Iron Man

Mon Jun 16, 2008 12:22 PM EDT

Iron Man has been blowing away the box office the last few weeks to take the undisputed top spot so far this summer season. I was skeptical upon first glimpsing the trailer, but any misgivings I had about this movie were absolutely demolished upon finally seeing it.

Reviews Without Pity: Commando

Mon Jun 9, 2008 12:08 PM EDT

Commando is a truly awful action movie from 1985 featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger, with an unsurprising plot, idiotic dialog, cardboard characters, and one unimaginative cliche after another, which somehow still manages to be great fun to watch.

Tue Jun 3, 2008 12:46 PM EDT

Continuing the recent trend of ruining updating beloved movie series from the eighties is Indiana Jones' latest adventure The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. This review contains plenty of *SPOILERS*.

Bookstores, Libraries and a Lack of Satisfaction

Mon Mar 24, 2008 7:49 AM EDT

It's become my weekend routine to spend Sunday afternoons in a bookstore. I'll head to whatever Borders or Barnes and Noble is convenient and wander the aisles for a few minutes, waiting for something of interest to catch my eye.

Reviews Without Pity: Leprechaun

Mon Mar 17, 2008 7:44 AM EDT

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, and after succumbing to the constant urging of a friend whose exquisitely refined taste in cinema I have come to appreciate and depend on, I recently enjoyed a viewing of the 1993 horror classic, Leprechaun.

I Want You To Want Me, Or, Why I Don't Care If Spitzer Broke the Law

Fri Mar 14, 2008 7:43 AM EDT

The story of Elliot Spitzer's fall from grace has been spotlighted by the national media with enough intensity to induce third degree burns. It seems pretty likely at this point that the now former New York Governor broke any number of laws.

The Menance to Your Rear End

Tue Mar 11, 2008 7:54 AM EDT

I've had to exercise my citizenship to make a difficult political decision lately, and I'm going to try and discuss it here without mentioning my leanings. It isn't about universal healthcare, 100 years of war in Iraq, or the economy (, stupid).

Reviews Without Pity: Cloverfield

Mon Jan 21, 2008 12:02 PM EST

It's been said Cloverfield is a monster movie for the Web generation. I'm not entirely sure what that means, but I think it has something to do with picture phones and handheld video cameras.

Reviews Without Pity: I Am Legend

Mon Dec 17, 2007 6:04 PM EST

I Am Legend continues a disturbing Hollywood trend of "basing" movies on books by pulling the title, setting and character names, and completely rewriting the plot, themes and everything else to the point of unrecognizability.

Wed Nov 21, 2007 7:23 PM EST
