American Reunion American Reunion

 

A Nostalgic Final Course

Elisabeth Leitch

As one of the characters tells another, "You can be who you want to be, you just got to be it." And while it may seem simple, for the guys, it is just the lesson the doctor ordered as they all grow up just the tiniest bit more over their reunion weekend.

10 Stirring Images... and More! 

Greg Wright

Has it really only been eight years since Mel Gibson brought us his unique and memorable vision of Jesus' final days? So much has happened to the mercurial director since then that it's hard to believe such a short time has passed. But the images live on, thanks to Gibson's own driving passion.

We Have A Pope We Have a Pope

 

Looking for Strength 

Darrel Manson

In spite of my problems with the film, Melville's quandary resonates with me. I expect that many who have felt the call of God will know what he is going through.

A Cabin in the Woods A Cabin in the Woods

Darrel Manson

"One of the other things that's interesting about Los Alamos," says fellow ex-resident Goddard, "is that it has one of the highest IQs per capita, one of highest PhDs per capita, but also one of the highest concentrations of churches per capita. And those two things usually don't go hand in hand."

Sarah Brock Is Hollywood Losing Money?

Sarah Brock

L.A. is one of the richest places in the U.S. You've got the expensive apartments, the mansions, the pricey shopping, and the high end sushi. It seems like that place is just pouring in and out money.

Think again!

J. Alan Sharrer Fixing the Broken Ratings System

J. Alan Sharrer

When I consider whether to plunk down hard-earned cash to see a film in the movie theater, there are a few things that I invariably do:

  • If I can find a movie trailer online, I'll watch it.
  • I'll glance at a few movie reviews (just a few, so as to not spoil the film).
  • If the film has been out for a week or so, I'll see what friends thought of it.

Surprisingly, I never check what a film is rated (G, PG, PG-13, R, or NC-17) by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA).  Why is this the case?

Total Recall Total Recall

Yo

The original starred Arnold Schwarzenegger, and was set on Mars. We've come a long and strange ways since then... and now we have a remake.  Why?  Why do this?

Take a peek at the upcoming remake; is it as bad as we feared?

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close             

 

War Horse War Horse

Jacob Sahms

Now on Blu-ray. Even though I'm not much of a fan of "animal movies," I'd say Spielberg's epic tale of war, friendship, and courage rises to an old fashioned standard, a pennant even, to which few have risen in decades.
