WATCHMEN

Who Watches The Cucumber?...And the fanboys whine like bitches. The "unfilmable" graphic novel, WATCHMEN - has been filmed! Cry the beloved comicbook and let slip the dogs of nihilism.

WATCHMEN is epic and sexy and bloody; sensual and visceral and brutal; more than a comicbook, more than a messianic cry of madness; flamboyant costumed heroes, a plot that shakes the world and Dr. Manhattan in full frontal ectoplasm.

WATCHMEN is a triumph! ...Unless you're a fanboy.

Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!

CORALINE
Release: Feb 09 - Review: 14 Feb 09

Alice
in Wonderland meets Alice Cooper.
This movie scared the pants off me. Which in turn, scared young children and women with small hips, as I walked out of the theater, pantless.

THE INTERNATIONAL
Release: Feb 09 - Review: 27 Jun 09

Resistance is Futile.

When one of the world's largest international banks is discovered brokering covert arms deals with China and the Middle East... well, who's really surprised these days?

SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE
Release: Jan 09 - Review: 1 Mar 09

Hip to be Slumdog.

Pommie Danny Boyle's kinetic vision, from the screaming slums of Bombay-soon-to-be-Mumbai; vibrant, shimmering, frenetic - but thank god no smell, otherwise the "ooweh" vomit sound...

THE WRESTLER
Release: Jan 09 - Review: 13 Feb 09

Emotional Pounding.

...a modern masterpiece; controlled, poignant, inspiring, funny, ultimately heart-wrenching with a Ramjet dive off the turnbuckle.

NOT EASILY BROKEN
Release: Jan 09 - Review: 19 Jun 09

Preachy, Peachy and Screechy.
...tailored for the black christian market like a black suit and tie is tailored for a Reservoir Dog.

VALKYRIE
Release: Dec 08 - Review: 12 Jan 09

The Plight of the Valkyries.

... compress events and often just falsify events to keep it popcorn-friendly - this is not a historical document - but they do not lose too much in their streamlining because the story itself is just so entertaining.

GRAN TORINO
Release: Dec 08 - Review: 31 Dec 08

The Enforcer in the 'burbs.

It's not a Dirty Harry film... really, it isn't. But someone forgot to tell Clint Eastwood.

FROST/NIXON
Release: Dec 08 - Review: 22 Dec 08

...and the Truth shall set you bleed...

...from the stunning real life interviews that ex-president Richard M. Nixon granted British television host, David Frost in 1977, Ron Howard's compelling FROST/NIXON does what Oliver Stone's milky W. never could - it gets the job done.
