‘Fast Five’ Review: Bigger, Faster, Dumber, Better

‘Fast Five’ Review: Bigger, Faster, Dumber, Better

PCN RATING: It was recently announced that Justin Lin might be taking over the Terminator franchise with Arnold Schwarzenneger in tow. After seeing the director’s latest, dumbest—and best!—entry in the Fast and the Furious franchise, I can understand why. Working from a lackluster series of carsploitation flicks, Lin and his team take the most insanely [...]

New trailer for ‘Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon’ invades!

New trailer for ‘Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon’ invades!

Well, you have to handle it to Michael Bay and his team. They know how to cut a trailer. As someone who actually enjoyed the first Transformers (sans erratic camera work and juvenile comedy) I have to say I’m intrigued. And after sitting through the absolute cinematic brain hemmorhage that was Revenge of the Fallen, [...]

Trailer for ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2′!

Trailer for ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2′!

Tonight Warner Bros. released the first big teaser trailer for their summer tentpole film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. For fans of the series, it’s been a frustrating wait since November’s first segment hit theaters and ended with a cliffhanger so abrupt that it almost seemed comical. Yates has spent three movies [...]

The first of the two is the last full U.S. trailer to debut before the June 3rd release date. There’s more of the relationship between Erik (Michael Fassbender) and Charles (James McAvoy) [...]

Does Zack Snyder’s ‘Superman: Man of Steel’ have its villainess?

Does Zack Snyder’s ‘Superman: Man of Steel’ have its villainess?

The casting game on Zack Snyder’s Superman: The Man of Steel continues. German actress Antje Traue is currently in the lead for the role of a super-powered Kryptonian villainess. Traue, sharing screentime with Dennis Quaid and Ben Foster in Christian Alvert’s underrated Pandorum, is a relative newcomer to the film scene.  Currently, there’s still uncertainty about [...]

Paco Plaza’s ‘[REC]3 Genesis’ gets a new poster!

Paco Plaza’s ‘[REC]3 Genesis’ gets a new poster!

I’m a pretty big fan ofJaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza’s first two [REC] films and found them to be a welcome refreshment in the increasingly stale zombie genre. Because of that fact, I can’t decide if I’m excited or nervous that the team behind the previous pictures are putting together two more, including this third installment [...]

Following on the heels of 300 and the Clash of the Titans remake, comes Tarsem Singh’s mythological adventure Immortals. The new trailer released by Relativity is packed full of beautiful images and epic battles. Will Tarsem deliver another masterpiece like The Fall, or a flop like The Cell?

The Dark Corner: Quicksand (1950)/Drive a Crooked Road (1956)

The Dark Corner: Quicksand (1950)/Drive a Crooked Road (1956)

Mickey Rooney starred in two criminally overlooked and under-appreciated noirs:Quicksand and Drive a Crooked Road. Few people even know they exist, let alone have seen them, but that is something I hope to rectify here today.

‘Water for Elephants’ Review: More slow than show

‘Water for Elephants’ Review: More slow than show

A handsomely mounted but ultimately toothless adaptation of Sarah Gruen’s epic love story set against the backdrop of a 1930′s travelling circus.

Earthling Director: Clay Liford    Starring:Rebecca Spence, Peter Greene, Amelia Turner, William Katt, Matt Socia, Savanna Sears, Jennifer Sipes, Chris Doubek PCN RATING:  The opening shots of Clay Liford’s Earthling hold a mysterious, tantalizing splendor; a foreboding, spiked meteor hurtles through space like an intergalactic seed pod, comes in contact with a space station just outside [...]

Review ‘Scream 4′: Back to the good ol’ slays

Review ‘Scream 4′: Back to the good ol’ slays

PCN REVIEW: Absence, apparently, really can make the heart grow fonder. It has been about 14 years since the original Scream slashed its way into the hearts of horror fans and created a doomed spiral of self-reference and pop-culture slumming. For years after, the genre was locked down in a slog of clever in-jokes and [...]

‘Rio’ Movie Review: A lark that never quite soars

‘Rio’ Movie Review: A lark that never quite soars

 PCN RATING: Blue Sky’s animated adventure Rio may be the first kid’s film to revolve around the desire to mate. Yes, those woodland animals in Bambi got around to frolicking but they didn’t travel half away around the world to do it. Blu the Macaw (Jesse Eisenberg) is called out of a happy, carefree domestication [...]
