Crank 2: High Voltage - Blu-ray Review

Oct 11, 2009, 16:19 GMT

Crank 2: High Voltage - Blu-ray Review
Hopped-up assassin Chev Chelios is back in the Red Bull-fueled ‘Crank 2: High Voltage’ - a sequel to the cult 2006 fave that left no camera trick or vulgarity unturned. Actually, I take that back – ‘Crank’ left out anal rape via shotgun but that’s what we have sequels for, right? ... more

The One – Blu-ray Review

Apr 1, 2009, 14:43 GMT

The One – Blu-ray Review
A film I'm annoyed to announce that I've seen three times, 'The One', once positioned as a star vehicle for Jet Li riding on his initial success of 'Romeo Must Die' is a science-fiction action film devoid of both effective sci-fi ideas and effective action. ... more

Ghost of Mars – Blu-ray Review

Apr 1, 2009, 14:02 GMT

Ghost of Mars – Blu-ray Review
‘Ghosts of Mars’ is still John Carpenter’s last theatrical film, and with good reason, as it’s a derivative rehash of his own work ‘Assault on Precinct 13’ (itself a take on ‘Rio Bravo’). Cheap, ugly and rarely fun, even on a B-movie level, the campness is intentional to be sure but that doesn’t always make for enjoyable entertainment. ... more

Transporter 3 (Two-Disc Fully Loaded Edition) – DVD Review

Mar 11, 2009, 13:14 GMT

Transporter 3 (Two-Disc Fully Loaded Edition) – DVD Review
I’ve not seen the other Transporter films.  I guess I’m just culturally deprived.  However, this third entry was a brainless action film that I actually had a good time watching.  Sure I had to roll my eyes a couple of times, but I put my brain into neutral and just went along for the ride.   ... more

Dec 29, 2008, 14:45 GMT

Death Race – Blu-ray Review

DVD Review: In the Name of the King - A Dungeon Siege Tale

Apr 16, 2008, 11:29 GMT

DVD Review: In the Name of the King - A Dungeon Siege Tale
Uwe Boll wages war amongst the inhabitants of the kingdom of Ehb.  Mr. Boll might do better in finding an editor that will get this film down to about 90 minutes.  This may be his first feature that has a big name cast, but some of them seem to be sleepwalking through their roles.   ... more

DVD Review: Chaos

Feb 26, 2008, 13:40 GMT

DVD Review: Chaos
Perhaps this film might’ve led up to its name more in its distribution than in the actual film.  It’s been around since 2005 and has finally arrived on DVD. The film has a game cast, but the results seem more bland than chaotic. ... more

DVD Review: War

Jan 2, 2008, 15:35 GMT

DVD Review: War
This film wants to be the epic teaming of two action stars, but only produces a whimper and not much bang in the event department.  There are some good action scenes but they feel like they would’ve killed in the 80s, but feel old hat and predictable now.   ... more
