Written on November 17, 2011 – 4:09 pm | by Colin |

A man’s Review: Breaking Dawn is the latest in a line of Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight Saga books turned movie.  If you’ve seen the last few in the series you probably know what to expect.  So let’s get right to it. I’m going to be honest as far as all the Twilight movies go I thought [...]

Filmpopper Review: ‘In Time’

Written on October 29, 2011 – 10:34 pm | by Colin |

There’s very few original ideas coming out of Hollywood these days, so the idea of In Time intrigued me quite a bit.  Unfortunately I have to say the movie did not live up to my expectations. I liked the original ideas behind it.  I even kind of liked the Robin Hood like feel that the movie portrays. [...]

Filmpopper Review: Footloose

Written on October 13, 2011 – 11:09 pm | by Colin |

Footloose is the latest film to be remade by Hollywood.  Many of you probably remember the original, you know, the one with Kevin Bacon and tractor chicken?   Well essentially this isn’t a true remake.  It takes place in today’s day and age but tells the exact same story.  A small town struck by tragedy bans dancing, [...]

Filmpopper Review: Abduction

Written on September 22, 2011 – 5:49 pm | by Colin |

Abduction is the latest action movie to come out.  Helping to kick off the boring fall movie season.  I will admit I was going into this movie with very low expectations.  I wouldn’t exactly call Taylor Lautner the best actor ever after all. Taylor Lautner plays the teenager we knows how to fight amazingly well for [...]

Written on September 1, 2011 – 3:04 pm | by Colin |

Apollo 18 is out.  Perhaps the last movie I was really excited to see this summer.  The story follows three astronauts on the “Apollo 18″ mission.  Needless to say if we look in the history books there was no Apollo 18, and this story tells us why. Shot from the point of view of several [...]

Finally the epic conclusion to one of the top selling book and movie series of all time.  J.K Rowling’s Deathly Hallows has been split into two parts for the film adaption.  The first part coming out last holiday season.
