Sam Raimi is, if you ask me, getting back to where he belongs. Taking a break from, (presumably,) prepping “Spiderman 4,” Raimi is back in the horror business. Starring Allison Lohman and Justin Long, “Drag Me to Hell,” is about a LA loan officer whose life is thrown into disarray, (and by disarray, I mean …
Courtney Hunt’s “Frozen River,” seems like the prototypical indie movie. Just add water. (Or, in this case, ice.) It’s the story of Ray, a single mother after her husband relapsed and ran off with their down payment on a double-wide trailer. She has two great kids, but the older one wants to get a job …
You need to see this. It’s unbelieveable. The website Mystery Man on Film has posted something amazing. In 1978, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Lawrence Kasdan sat down to talk about an idea that George and Steve had. The character’s name? Indiana Smith. What has been posted is a transcript of a five day meeting …

Moss will …
If you’re like me, you thought you’d had enough for Will Ferrell. Every movie it’s the same, with him playing the overgrown child. I get it, it’s not funny. And then I saw “Step Brothers,” and all of a sudden, the things that I was growing so weary of seemed new and funny. Maybe it’s …

Now it isn’t typical of the reviewer to refer our readers to another site for their reviews, but for this I’ll make an exception. Dan Amrich over at Official Xbox Magazine has written a non-review review of the upcoming Street Fighter movie. There was nothing about the pre-release buzz on this flick that made me …
I won’t deny that Woody Allen has found his muse in Europe, but I also won’t deny that I’m happy to see him return to New York City. Not only is he returning to New York City, he’s returning with Larry David. ‘Whatever Works,’ Allen’s new comedy is the opening film in the 2009 Tribeca …
Director Alexander Payne has announced that his follow-up movie to the award-winning “Sideways,” will be a special effects movie called “Downsizing.” The film, (written by Payne and his usual co-writer/Producer Jim Taylor,) is about a guy who is shrunk down to a tiny size. Reportedly, Paul Giamatti, Reese Witherspoon and Sasha Baron Cohen have all …
