Christmas Time in South Park

Love it or hate it: not many people are ambivalent about their feelings concerning South Park. Some view it as the demise of television satire… a quick decent from the edgy but family-friendly Simpsons into the potty-mouthed abyss of Eric Cartman. Others (like me) take a different view and, while acknowledging the show’s tactless and sometimes tasteless humor, recognize South Park as the cutting-edge satire to end all satires: social and political commentary that considers no ground...

Unbreakable - BD

Much like a rock band whose first album sells twenty million copies and is called a failure when their follow-up only sells ten million, M. Night Shyamalan's Unbreakable was probably doomed from the start to disappoint. Following on the heels of his 1999 mega-hit The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable arrived in a shroud of secrecy, with terrific teasers that hinted at the film's many mysteries but gave nothing away. Though the film made money when it was released in late 2000, it just couldn't equal the...

The 6th Day - BD

What could have been an entertaining film based on an interesting premise has been sabotaged by the filmmakers’ clueless conception of medical immortality through cloning. This fatal flaw consistently collapsed my willing suspension of disbelief and pulled me out of the film. Self is a blend of memories, skills, and experiences that shape our outlook and personality, and it is consciousness. Consciousness is independent of memories. A person with amnesia still retains an instinctive will to...

Sought by clients ranging from the Catholic Church to ordinary families, the PRS, aided by psychologists, psychics, priests, and demonologists, helps terrified people find solutions to their paranormal problems.Ryan Buell started...

National Treasure: Book of Secrets - BD

National Treasure was so successful that a new franchise was born. National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets ups the ante, a more international film than its predecessor and one that featured considerably more action. It was well received and earned even more money than the original at the box office. Can a second sequel be far behind? All the principal players return for this second romp, and to them add two significant additions. We are blessed with a film that is no less absurd and no less fun than...

One Missed Call - BD

In my recent review of The Orphanage, I made a point of complaining how if it weren’t for gross- out torture-porn flicks inspired by the likes of the Saw franchise or retooled remakes of far-better Asian and European horror films, there wouldn’t be much reason for a lifelong horror fan like me to even venture out to the local multiplex anymore. Lo and behold, nary a week elapsed before yet another of those pointless and clumsily-executed remakes made its way to the top of my viewing...

The Red Balloon

I just finished up a review of Paddle to the Sea – one of Criterion’s new ‘Children’s Classics’ releases – and it left me feeling kind of rough: this writer always hates giving bad reviews to Criterion titles; for me, it’s the emotional equivalent of someone spending hundreds of dollars on a birthday present for me that I simply dislike.Well, luckily the folks at Criterion sent over The Red Balloon soon after, and it was as if Paddle to the Sea had...

Errol Flynn: The Warner Bros. Western Collection

While watching this compilation of Errol Flynn westerns, it’s impossible to ignore the icon’s star power. Whether his films are good or bad – and there are flicks here that fit into both those categories – Flynn had the kind of on-screen presence that most up-and-coming actors would literally kill for. The material presented him may not have always been top-of-the-line, but Flynn always gave the appearance of being up to the challenge.However, like Fox’s Tyrone Power...

Touch of Evil: 50th Anniversary Edition

Let's begin with some of Karen's comments from her 2000 review:Touch of Evil is a stand-alone lesson in classic noir. The film, directed by Orson Welles and originally released in 1958, sets the standard for stories about crooked cops and mysterious women that take place down back alleyways and undercover. The crime thriller, based on Whit Masterson's pulp novel Badge of Evil, features Orson Welles as corrupt cop Hank Quinlan. He frames a young Mexican man on a hunch the man may have committed a...
