Up Next: Wanted

I got a chance to see Wanted, with Angelina Jolie, Morgan Freeman, and James McAvoy earlier this week. The film was much bloodier and tougher than I expected. I’ll be posting a full review next Tuesday.

Next Up: Dead or Alive (DOA)

Time for another review of a movie based on a video game. This time I’ll take a look at Dead or Alive, directed by the acclaimed Corey Yuen. This film features some stunning actors, but does it make the grade as an action film in the usually dismal game-to-movie category?

I hope to post the review next Tuesday.

Next Up: Hancock

I got a chance to see Hancock, starring Will Smith and Charlize Theron, at the theater this weekend. I’ll be reviewing that movie next, and hope to post the review on Monday or Tuesday of this week.

Sometimes when I go to the movies there’ll be one or two action movies to choose from, but this time there were five movies that could qualify as an action movie: Hancock, Incredible Hulk, Get Smart, Wall-E, and Wanted. It’s a good time to be an action movie fan!

Up Next: Castle Keep

Life took some crazy turns over the past few months, but things have settled down again. With that, I hope to resume posting regular action movie reviews again. I’m going to aim for at least one per week, but I may well be able to go a bit faster.

First up after this long break will be Castle Keep, an old World War II movie from 1969. I hope to post this review later tonight.

Up Next: Jumper

I took in Jumper over the weekend. I will be posting a review later this week.

One of the big questions I had going into the film was whether they could hold the thing together in light of the film’s interesting yet potentially problematic premise: teleportation. I envisioned a film ridden with plot holes. But I won’t give anything away yet. Tune in later this week for the full Jumper review.

This will be the first 2008 film that I’ll review.
