This movie takes everything you loved about the first Hellboy film, throws in the liberal doses of Pan’s Labyrinth’s visual style, and then cranks everything up to 11. More »

This film is one of a select few to actually transcend any critics leveled at it by being worse than anything you could imagine just from reading the reviews. If anyone tells you that this film isn’t as bad as critics say, then they obviously don’t like you very much. More »

I don’t want to oversell this movie, but I think we can safely add it the list of “best super hero movies ever.” It easily ranks right up there with Iron Man, Batman Begins, and X-Men 2. If I had to use one made-up word to describe the movie, it would be “nerdgasm.” More »

Scorcese offers us his latest film in the form of the documentary Shine A Light, featuring a band that is already larger than life: The Rolling Stones. Add that to the fact that this film is present on the IMAX screen, and you’ve got yourself a really big movie, in more ways than one. More »
