Television reporter Angela Vidal and her cameraman Scott Percival are assigned to cover a night in the life of the L.A. Fire Department.  They are set to shadow two firemen, Jake and Fletcher.  They tour the firehouse, they see how the men and women live, they see the showers, the racquetball court, the sleeping quarters.  [...]

It’s Friday.  Do yourself a favor and go see The Hangover.  Everyone deserves to kick back and laugh their ass off every now and then.  I didn’t have any intention of reviewing this movie for our site, but when you see a movie this good, you just have to talk about it.  And I’m proclaiming [...]

Is it wrong for me to say that My Bloody Valentine has its heart in the right place?  I didn’t think it was.  There are brief moments in this movie that are quite good, moments of character and some moments of true suspense, but they are far too few, leaving this movie a nice attempt to take [...]

Have you ever been awake at two in the morning, unable to sleep, or just dragging home, and you flip on the television and surf the channels and land on a movie that has a certain I-don’t-know-what?  Some movies are made for late night viewing, they have a certain spirit to them, a certain aura [...]

The prequel movie Underworld: Rise of the Lycans tells the story of how the war between the vampires and lycans began.  If you’ve seen Underworld and/or Underworld: Evolution, then you already know how the war began.  To quote the Rolling Stones, “Love, it’s a bitch.”
Rise details Lucian’s birth and his rise from being vampire Viktor’s [...]
