Rude and Crude, “Horrible Bosses” Has Laughters Aplenty
Starring an all-star cast that includes Jason Bateman and Charlie Day, Horrible Bosses is an unapologetic dark comedy that’s crude, rude, and often humorous. Let’s face it, who doesn’t want to harm their boss one way or the other?

“Paul” is an Admirable Entry in the Pegg/Frost Wheelhouse
There’s something inherently likable about the buddy comedy team of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. Perhaps it’s their endearing accents or their seemingly genuine regard for each other on-screen. What we’ve seen from them in the past has cemented their status as geek favorites.

Movie Review: Up in the Air (2009)
Gifted with a charming smile and good looks, George Clooney has always been a very charismatic movie star. He probably will never be known to have great depth or range but over the years, he has turned into a fairly solid actor who plays a certain persona (himself?) extremely well.

Movie Review: State of Play (2009)
State of Play is a political thriller directed by Kevin Macdonald and released back in April of 2009. I initially wanted to see it in theater due to the deliriously star-studded cast but ended up not going so I was quite thrilled to get my hands on the DVD.

Movie Review: Hancock (2008)
Tired of watching the same old take on superhero movie? Then Hancock might just be for you. Hancock (Will Smith) is an alcoholic, careless superhero disliked by the general population because of his childish behavior and obvious contempt for just about everyone. Although well intentioned, Hancock causes immense amount of collateral damage, flying into buildings, [...]
Movie Review: Juno (2007)
Just came back from watching Juno, directed by Jason Reitman, and I have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised. The movie is quite hilarious, yet smart and witty. The movie features an excellent cast with Ellen Page, Jason Bateman, Jennifer Garner, and J.K Simmons. Pretty original turn, excellent script, brilliant casting and acting [...]
