THE CLIMATE PROJECT

Release: Sep 11 - Review: 16 Sep 11
The Krypton Syndrome.
...Al Gore talks up a storm. About storms. And droughts. And melting ice caps, and raging fires; the global climate shift exacerbated by what 1960's science fiction films might have called "Mankind tampering in God's domain."

CONAN THE BARBARIAN 2011

Release: Aug 11 - Review: 19 Dec 11
Muscles, magic, tits and blood.
Like Arnold before him, Momoa perfectly embodies Robert E. Howard's fictional medieval warrior, muscles thrumming, brain on standby, dick locked in the upright position.

THE CHANGE-UP

Another change-up, another plage-up.

COWBOYS AND ALIENS

Release: Jul 11 - Review: 17 Dec 11
A shallow ripple in the Force.
Is COWBOYS AND ALIENS a boring western movie, or a clichéd alien invasion movie?

CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER

Release: Jul 11 - Review: 18 Nov 11
Red, White and Boob.
The red, white and blue avenger, in the best comicbook movie of the decade - and by that I mean, it's lightweight and predictable and aimed at twelve-year-olds.

BAD TEACHER

Release: Jun 11 - Review: 12 Dec 11
BAD TEACHER not good.
It's commendable that Cameron Diaz would go to such great lengths to portray someone so despicable and "ugly," but BAD TEACHER doesn't do her any justice, being even more despicable and ugly.

TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON

Release: Jun 11 - Review: 11 Dec 11
Big things breaking other big things.
I'm sure the budget of TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON could wipe out Liberia's deficit, so why can't they afford passable look-alikes for Kennedy and Obama?

SUPER

Release: Jun 11 - Review: 22 Oct 11
Super Dupe-r.

X-MEN: FIRST CLASS

Release: Jun 11 - Review: 18 Jun 11
Homo superior, Bromo superior.
Remove the movie from its source material and FIRST CLASS is a very enjoyable origin tale, smartly depicting how the - snigger - "first" X-Men came to wear such flamboyant matching blouses..

BRIDESMAIDS
 
Release:
May 11 - Review: 21 Dec 11
Marriage of heaven and hell.
BRIDESMAIDS was advertised as being a Chick Flick version of SUPERBAD. Nope. It's just super bad.

THOR

Release: May 11 - Review: 26 Nov 11
Godliness is next to prettiness.
Director Kenneth Branagh brings THOR to the big screen with all the respect that a Thunder God deserves and all the cut obliques that a woman craves.

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES

Release: May 11 - Review: 24 Nov 11

THE BEAVER

Release: May 11 - Review: 10 Sep 11
Puppetheart.
...can't tell whether THE BEAVER is a tragicomedy or a psychodramedy... it's cute, it's furry, it's got a big mouth and it's slightly insane - but enough about Mel Gibson.
