Dead Man Down
posted by maroon5gurl88
Dead Man Down has potential to elevate a B-movie
thriller into an A-list revenge thriller, but the
low-level script makes everything feel decidedly
mediocre. The acting, part ...

Oz: The Great and Powerful

As if it desiring to remake The Wizard of Oz
isn’t difficult territory already, how hard
would be to do a prequel? As evidenced by Oz: The
Great and Powerful, it’s incred ...

Dark Skies
posted by maroon5gurl88
The haunted house flick has become as rote and

The Last Exorcism Part II
posted by maroon5gurl88
We all should be aware of how good The Last
Exorcism Part II is by looking at the title. How
can it be the “last” exorcism, again?
Furthermore, why call it part two, whe ...

Jack the Giant Slayer
posted by maroon5gurl88
It’s always nice to discover a movie that
provides pure, unadulterated escapism. Jack the
Giant Slayer is almost old-school in its blend of

Beautiful Creatures (2013)

The teen genre, must like the zombie genre, is
