Dear Romero Fans, I went to see Land of the Dead last night with you. It… was not good. I was severely disappointed. It wasn’t quite bad enough for me to want to find Romero, eviscerate Romero, and eat Romero while he dies screaming. I don’t even want my money back or anything. I had some fun. But come ON, dude…

Okay, we got the kids back last weekend. Between us, we’d managed to see
most of the big summer movies. While going to see The Fantastic Four seemed like a good option for a few of the family members (read: the boys and me), Mom was the one who bought the tickets…

Before I went on vacation about two weeks ago, my wife and I decided that we needed a night AWAY from the house. She’s the daughter of a former NFL
quarterback and I’m just a movie freak, so we decided to check out the recent remake of The Longest Yard…

After seeing Revenge of the Sith two Sundays in a row I decided it was time to see something a little different this weekend. Being a Jet Li fan I chose Unleashed for this week’s outing.

Last week, I found myself up in Akron, Ohio. . . again. This time, though, there was no amusing tornado weather to keep me occupied. I wound up at the Fairlawn Regal again, faced another set of annoying movie choices, and settled for the latest installment of Deuce Bigalow…

A couple of weeks ago, I was stuck in Akron, Ohio on a business trip. I don’t know anybody in Akron and the weather was threatening tornados. What better to do than head to the local theater (made of nice, sturdy cinderblocks) and catch a movie…

For a hundred minutes I was filled with dread. There was this unbreakably spellbinding feeling of lurking doom. Spielberg does a great job of making you uncomfortable all the way through this movie. There is, of course, also a lot of action…
