RATING:
He’s baaaaack. Sam Raimi, the talented director who started his career with the cult comic-horror classic The Evil Dead and then gravitated to more mainstream work like A Simple Plan and The Spider Man series, has returned to the genre that made him famous. I’m happy to report that he has not gone soft.
Nope, [...]

RATING:
For a film that is supposed to be concerned with the state of humanity, Terminator Salvation lacks a beating heart.

But guess what? The [...]

RATING:
Lately, it seems that every comic book movie down the pike can be subtitled: Or How Our Hero Got His Angst On. At this point, they should really rename the whole genre bummer books.
So, as X-Men Origins: Wolverine begins, we watch as the child version of our mutant hero kills the father he [...]
