Limitless (2011–105 mins ) B. Cooper, A. Friel, R. De Niro Eddie (Cooper) is a writer stuck in quite a rut. His head is clouded, he can’t write, he’s become quite the slacker and doesn’t do a whole lot with himself. That is, until an out of touch friend gives him the ultimate wonder drug. […]

Cedar Rapids (2011–87 mins) Ed Helms,  John C Reiley Tim Lippe (Helms) is a small town eternally straight as an arrow (and naive) insurance salesman who is utterly sheltered from the world. He is so sheltered that his only romantic contact is his current girlfriend who happens to have been his 7th grade teacher. Every […]

Dylan Dogead of Night (2010–107mins) B. Routh, S. Huntington, T. Diggs Fans of the comic book Dylan Dog won’t like this take on the supernatural private eye, but those of us who enjoy comedic supernatural movies this is a good find. Brandon Routh abandons his Superman outfit in favor of the signature red shirt of […]

Unknown (2011– 113 mins) L. Neeson, D. Kruger, J. Jones Neeson has done a few movies where he seems to be playing the same spy/badass in them. “Unknown” takes us on a ride which is “Taken” crossed with “Bourne Identity”. Neeson plays Dr. Martin Harris, who is in Berlin for a science conference with his […]

Take Me Home Tonight (2011– 97 mins) T. Grace, A. Faris, T. Palmer   “Take Me Home Tonight” gets in that line of high school/college shenanigans movies. Think most any high school movie in which there is a quiet/geeky guy in high school who had a crush and sees her later and wants to score […]

Bell “The Eagle” centers on a former Centurion, Marcus Aquila (Tatum)  from the Roman army and his search for the truth about a regiment of 5000 Roman soldiers who vanished into thin air.

Cougars Inc. (2011–81 mins) K. Gallner, J. Belushi, K. Morris, D. Richards Yep, you read that right. Not only is there a B-Movie named “Cougars Inc.” but I did grab it from the Red Box and I actually did laugh at it and think it wasn’t half bad either. Granted, it’s not great and it […]

Source Code (2011– 93 mins) J. Gyllenhaal, M. Monaghan, V. Farmiga Source Code is another movie in a long line of movies I didn’t really want to see, and I didn’t want to like, but was actually pretty good. Looking at the trailer it looks to be a bit formulaic, long drawn out race against […]

Season of the Witch (2011– 95 mins) Nic Cage, Ron Perlman  Behmen and Felson (Cage and Perlman) are knights of epic fighting proportion, who get tired of all the needless innocent slaying during their tours of duty in the crusades and unenlist themselves from the service to the self proclaimed mouth of God. It’s a […]

The Adjustment Bureau (2011–106 mins) M. Damon, E. Blunt So even tho I put “Inception” on my top 5 for last year based on the 10 movies the Academy had up for the best picture, it’s no secret it’s not a favorite of mine. So naturally when I saw all the previews and all the […]
