I know Good Burger is bad but I laughed with or at it quite a bit. Based on the sketch of the same name from the Nickelodeon series All That, Good Burger employees Ed (Kel Mitchell) and Dexter (Kenan Thompson) learn the restaurant might have to close its doors. Rival Mondo Burger, with its giant meat patties, is opening a new location across the street. It’s up to our two mismatched heroes to save the restaurant from the evil corporation that would have them out of a job. Actors Thompsons and Mitchell are delightfully goofy and give their roles their all...

What’s scarier than The Amityville Horror? Remembering it was really good, telling all the naysayers they were wrong for years and then rewatching it to find out you were the one who was wrong all along. “Based on true events” it’s the story of the Lutz family, who move into a big ol’ house where, a year before, the entire household was murdered by their teenage son. Soon after they settle in, weird stuff starts happening and everyone gets mighty scared. The setup is terrific. The house itself is awesome and frightening from the get-go...

I decided to check out Leatherheads even though I'd heard little about it. By this I mean I knew of its existence but heard no talk of it at all. No good word-of-mouth or complaints whatsoever. It’s as if anyone who saw it had nothing to say. Probably because the movie isn’t really bad, but it’s not great either. I guess it’s just kind of ok. In 1925, Jimmy "Dodge" Connelly (George Clooney) wants to be a professional football player. Trouble is, there’s no such thing in Duluth, Minnesota. When Dodge...

The audience for Inuyasha the Movie 2: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass is even narrower than you'd expect. It’s not for people who've never seen the TV show - that’s a given. You'd expect it to be aimed at hardcore fans of the show, but I don’t think they'll like it either. Inuyasha the Movie 2 is only for religious zealots devoted to the church of InuYasha that absolutely refuse to recognize something bad even when all logical evidence points towards this logical conclusion or indiscriminating fans who only vaguely remember it...

When I sat down to watch Alpha Dog, the odds were stacked against it. Not only did a lady at my video store accidentally spoil the ending for me, but I didn’t exactly see myself warming up to a bunch of spoiled rich kids who have nothing better to do than drink and consume copious amounts of drugs. I found it emotional; a poignant drama with sharp moments of tension. Based on real-life events, 15-year-old Zack Mazursky (Anton Yelchin) who is kidnapped by a gang of drug dealers led by Johnny Truelove (Emile Hirsch)...
