Early DVD Review: Ninja Assassin

Early DVD Review: Ninja Assassin

Hollywood has had an exceedingly hard time making a good ninja movie. Most of them wind up in the bin collecting dust at your local Target or Walmart. Ninja Assassin is a legitimate attempt to make a ninja movie for a mass audience with a decent budget and a fair amount of craft [...]

10 Things I Hate About You is a fun and light-hearted teen comedy that helped launch the career of the late Heath Ledger. Ledger took what could have been a typical teen heartthrob role and imbued his part with charisma and warmth. He’s well matched with star Julia Stiles and a bunch of [...]

Movie Review: Inglourious Basterds.  Glorious indeed.

Movie Review: Inglourious Basterds. Glorious indeed.

I like short movie reviews, so I’ll distill this down to the most important aspects.  This movie is essentially a drama, with some good comedy, and some of the best dialogue and acting I’ve ever seen.  The opening scene has a famous Nazi, titled, “The Jew Hunter”, Colonel Hans Landa, who is played by the fantastic [...]
