On FRINGE, now in its third season and renewed for a fourth on Fox on Friday nights, there are two parallel universes.

Movie Review: STAKE LAND

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Nick Damici, Connor Paolo, Danielle Harris, Sean Nelson, Michael Cerveris Writers: Nick Damici and Jim Mickle Director: Jim Mickle Distributor: IFC Films Release Date: April 22, 2011 STAKE LAND works on some basic levels – one can reasonably go into this post-apocalyptic horror movie expecting action and blood and be rewarded with plenty of both. An added bonus is some really gorgeous cinematography by Ryan Samul, which makes us feel like we really are somewhere bleak and abandoned, yet weirdly beautiful. In STAKE LAND, adolescent Martin (Connor Paolo) sees his family slaughtered by vampires, but he […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Reese Witherspoon, Robert Pattinson, Christoph Waltz, Paul Schneider, Jim Norton, Hal Holbrook Writer: Richard LaGravenese, based on the novel by Sara Gruen Director: Francis Lawrence Distributor: Fox 2000 Release Date: April 22, 2011 Based on Sara Gruen’s novel, WATER FOR ELEPHANTS is a big movie that feels in many ways like it could have been made in the ‘50s or ‘60s, with its forbidden romance, circus spectacle and mostly noble hero. The most modern aspects of the movie are concern for animals and acknowledgment that quite a few non-humans were and are smarter than humans gave them […]Read On »

Movie Review: AFRICAN CATS

Rating: G Stars: Samuel L. Jackson (Narrator) Director: Alastair Fothergill & Keith Scholey Distributor: Walt Disney Pictures Release Date: April 22, 2011 I grew up watching DISNEY TRUE LIFE ADVENTURES in school. They were old even then, but I still loved seeing them. It clearly has been years since I have watched any of them which were very cute and given the Disney treatment to take the edge off of stories in nature. AFRICAN CATS is in some ways exactly what I expected – a throwback to those older Disney nature film. It is a beautifully shot film as the […]Read On »

AMERICAN IDOL recap: Stefano Langone finally gets the overdramatic boot

So it was time for Stefano Langone to go home this week on Season 10 of the world’s greatest karaoke competition, AMERICAN IDOL. Well, I can’t say that I didn’t see this one coming given I have predicted his departure from the show for the past four weeks in a row. And, honestly, he should have been gone a long time ago before this week. No way in hell Pia Toscano should be gone and not Stefano. With his crazy eyes, weird facial expressions and wacky overdramatic nature to his performances (not to mention his singing ballad after ballad) finally […]Read On »
