Scream 4 (review)
You wanna know who the killer is? I’ll tell you who the killer is. In fact, there’s two killers: that’s the twist. Director Wes Craven and screenwriter Kevin Williamson worked in tandem here to murder the horror comedy… or at least their own franchise. Not that it wasn’t dead already.
cinematic roots of: ‘Alpha and Omega’
In Alpha and Omega, two animated wolves — a lowly cur (the voice of Justin Long) and a pack leader (the voice of Hayden Panettiere) — are relocated by humans to another park and fall in love on the road trip home. This flick sprang from (among other films)…
Alpha and Omega (review)
The bizarre non sequiturs that pass for jokes — such as the golf-playing goose who really, really hates cupcakes — make the poop jokes sound like wit.
I Love You, Beth Cooper (review)
Though he’s never so much as spoken to the poor girl before, nerd announces during his high-school valedictorian speech that he ‘loves’ the ‘hottest’ girl in school. In the real world, this would be called an act of passive-aggressive behavior by an antisocial creep…

trailer break: ‘I Love You, Beth Cooper’
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… I learned yesterday that this shan’t be screened for critics, and now I can see why. How the hell old is that guy playing the valedictorian? The IMDB says 28. Geez. Or perhaps I should say geezer. Not that 28 is old old, of course, but it’s … more…
opening in the U.K. May 29: ‘Drag Me to Hell,’ ‘Obsessed,’ ‘12 Rounds,’ ‘Jonas Brothers,’ more
Drag Me to Hell: “I welcome the dead into my soul.” Go on, say it — it’s easy! Obsessed: Bitches be crazy. It’s all you need to know. 12 Rounds: John Cena thinks he’s Bruce Willis in Die Hard. It’s so cute, really. Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience: “And three brothers shall walk among … more…
