#53 – Robocop (2014)

What a big, boring, steaming pile of crap.  I hated this movie…HATED it.  I’ve never seen a movie that was as loud and at the same time so damn dull, over complicated and sterile.  A complete and utter waste of time that had tons of potential working from the original and a solid cast. Recommend?…

#8 – Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit

Get past the ridiculous title and you have a fun spy thriller that’s done well and has a tight story.  The cast equip themselves well even though I thought Kiera Knightley didn’t have much to do.  Chris Pine could easily be a Jack Ryan for a new generation of fans.  I want to nitpick the…

#18 – Drive Hard #19 – The Bag Man

I put these two together because they’re bound together by equally awful performances from John Cusack and both movies are just terrible.  Drive Hard brings in Thomas Jane to play off of Cusack’s obnoxious “villain” and The Bag Man is just infuriating all around from beginning to end. Recommend? I wish both of these movies…

#4 – 3 Days To Kill

I was really surprised by how much I liked this movie.  A cheesy trailer and sketchy track record from Kevin Costner as late made me skeptical but it’s fun!  Costner delivers and Amber Heard is smoking hot and gives a solid performance.  Good action work and some well timed humor really round out a good…

#60 – The Trip #61 – The Trip To Italy

Two loosely plotted road trip movies with scenes that sometimes run too long and at times feature grating impression riffs but I found both of them to be charming and fun.  I think I liked The Trip To Italy a tad more but Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon are good in both and they’re both…

#91 – Morning Star

First thing to know about this movie is that there is no plot, absolutely none.  A medieval movie with castles and swords that is so completely boring that I was forced to start returning emails and clean things just to keep my sanity.  The poster is more exciting than anything that actually happens in this…

#51 – Earth To Echo

I lost interest pretty quickly with this movie.  The found footage conceit is completely unneeded, the plot is over complicated for a family movie and the lead characters are incredibly annoying.  What looked like a fun, family adventure turned out to be so much less and for me, unlikeable. Recommend? I guess maybe kids would…

#24 – The Interview

Despite all of the buzz and the controversy the best part of this movie was when it was over.  I chuckled a few times but other than that I couldn’t stand James Franco’s overacting and Seth Rogen was just alright.  Ludicrous and silly but annoyingly so. Recommend? Go watch Pineapple Express, it’s a better movie…

#102 – Swearnet: The Movie

Man this movie is bad.  Basically The Trailer Park Boys play themselves and swear almost every other word.  There’s a plot that somehow involves a car race and some shady loan sharks but let’s not kid ourselves, none of that even matters when the guys are calling each other names, puking on things and shoving…

#65 – Jodorowsky’s Dune

A fun documentary about the ups and downs of the filmmaking process and the vision one man had of making what possibly would’ve been a masterpiece or a train wreck but completely would’ve been memorable.  Hilarious and heartbreaking, some of the stories and the ideas are just hilarious. Recommend? A must for any lover of…
