Rating: PG-13 Stars: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Denis Leary, Campbell Scott, Irrfan Khan, Martin Sheen, Sally Field Writers: James Vanderbilt and Alvin Sargent and Steve Kloves, story by James Vanderbilt, based on the Marvel comics by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko Director: Marc Webb Distributor: Columbia Pictures Release Date: July 3, 2012 THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN is a lot of fun. It’s sweeter than its predecessors, with Andrew Garfield as a kinder, warmer Peter Parker and Martin Sheen making a much bigger impression than we might have expected from Uncle Ben. If the movie doesn’t quite live up to […]Read On »

DALLAS jam-packs so much material in its 45-minute telecasts, and “Truth and Consequences” is no different. It’s amazing how much is covered in such […]Read On »

Stars: Robert Taylor, Katee Sackhoff, Lou Diamond Phillips, Cassidy Freeman, Bailey Chase, Adam Bartley, Louanne Stephens  Writer:  Tony Tost, Series created by Hunt Baldwin & John Coveny, Based on the novels by Craig Johnson Director: Alex Graves  Network: A&E, airs Sunday nights Original Telecast: July 1, 2012 Besides the fact that LONGMIRE is just a really well done series, (which got a season two pick up already!) each week has a few feel and flavor to the cases that Walt (Robert Taylor) and his deputies have to investigate. I like the fact that it’s not the MURDER SHE WROTE formula, […]Read On »

In a way, TEEN WOLF is a 13 hour movie – since there’s usually not a lot […]Read On »

TV Review: FALLING SKIES – Season 2 – “Young Bloods”

Stars: Noah Wyle, Moon Bloodgood, Will Patton, Connor Jessup, Drew Roy, Maxim Knight, Sarah Carter Writer: Heather V. Regnier Director: Miguel Spaochnik Network: TNT, airs Sunday nights Original Telecast: July 1, 2012 FALLING SKIES continues to improve on Season 1 in so many ways. There’s urgency to the Resistance, there’s more emotion and it feels like the series is heading toward something bigger. In many ways, the series feels like it’s also taken some cues from the similarly themed THE WALKING DEAD by parceling out just the right amount of character stuff with its “threat” stuff, and in this case […]Read On »

I’ve been collecting Spider-man since I was about 3 or 4 (so a little over 30 years) which actually makes me feel REALLY old, but I know a thing or two about the web-head. Or I can […]Read On »

CD Review: CONQUEST 1453 soundtrack

By DANIEL SCHWEIGER
CONQUEST 1453 soundtrack | ©2012 Movie Score Media

Turkish nationalism gets a powerhouse score from English composer Benjamin Wallfisch with CONQUEST 1453, who turns sultan Mehmet II’s invasion of Constantinople during that titular year into a first-rate, rah-rah epic that’s made his country cheer like never before at their cinemas. It’s a considerable step up in musical scale for Wallfisch from the idiosyncratic music he provided for the exceptional prison break movie THE ESCAPIST. With CONQUEST 1453, it’s all about bringing out the symphonic artillery, conjuring a siege of heroically mighty themes, raging brass, beating drums, a biblical chorus, and proud ethnic identity – music mighty enough to […]Read On »

Not only do we remain in a single reality throughout, but Wilfred […]Read On »
