The definitive action foursome from the 80’s are back and bigger than ever! Carnahan knocked this baby out of the park, not only do we get the mysterious origin of the A-Team finally told, but we ALSO get two more hours of rock ‘em sock ‘em wicked action and hilarious hi-jinks of a reimagined yet somehow faithful re-casting of the iconic characters. The only thing left to hope for is a sequel!

The difference between a successful yet soulless blockbuster and a well-crafted film that’s marketed blockbuster is sometimes ignored by movie studios with dollar-signs in their eyes. But in the case of Prince of Persia, Disney and Bruckheimer actually created a piece of entertainment with some heart, a strong story and some great characters to go along with a heaping serving of action-packed video game inspired eye-candy!

Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe make a great team. Just look at Gladiator. Really. We mean it, skip Robin Hood and just go watch Gladiator. This movie is so BARELY a story of Robin Hood, it hardly deserves the name, and winds up being little more than a re-tread of Scott’s previous epic work. Everyone phoned it in on this one, folks; don’t waste your time.

We were blown away by the first Ironman, and with the same creative team behind the sequel, we had high hopes going into part 2. The drama, action and comedy were all firing on all cylinders and it didn’t take long for us to realize we were in an Ironman film! Long live the Ironmen!

Unfortunately, The Losers, which was adapted from the Vertigo comic by the same name, definitely lost something in translation from the incredible source material it was based on. Despite an amazing cast of Uhura, The Comedian, Human Torch and a Lost Boy, an espionage movie based on a comic wasn’t enough to bring out genre supporters and it suffered a crushing defeat at the box office. Probably based on ads that make the movie out to be the A-Team that you’ve never heard of. Which, is actually an honest depiction of the film, which lets fans of the comic down, as well as audiences expecting anything more than a typical action flick. Having said that, we’ll be damned if Chris Evans isn’t CRAZY amusing, as usual!

The good news is, we’ve got an AWESOME behind-the-scenes Ironman 2 Preview coming your way this weekend!

We couldn’t have been more blown away by Kick-Ass. A top-notch story, great performances (especially Chloe Moretz as Hit-Girl), incredible humour and a surprisingly meaty film-going experience were disguised as a goofy superhero comedy by Lionsgate’s one-dimensional advertizing campaign. If you haven’t seen Kick-Ass, and you can take some gruesome violence and potty-mouthed humour, you owe yourself a night out at the movies to let Matthew Vaughn and Mark Millar Kick your Ass!

We were both BLOWN AWAY by almost every aspect of God of War 3. A fitting end to the Kratos trilogy and an amazing mythological bookend, GOW3 also delivered an even slicker gameplay and possibly the greatest graphics in any game, ever. Small hiccups to the gameplay like a DDR-style music minigame and a few too many knuckle sandwiches to the face of Zeus aside, this baby knocks it out of the park!

Tim Burton definitely pushed even his own imagination to a new level and a new dimension. But did any of Lewis Carroll’s legendary work of fiction make it to the silver screen intact? Characters seem to come across true to form, albeit a bit more Scottish, but Tim Burton is true to his word when he claimed this would be an entirely new story for Alice… far from an adaptation in plot and in spirit.
