Revisiting the stop-motion puppet animation style he established with "The Nightmare Before Christmas, " Tim Burton serves up another wonderful tale filled with atmosphere and his trademark look. After successful run in theaters the film is now [...]

An Unmarried Woman

It's kind of refreshing to watch a film from a couple of decades ago, a time in filmmaking when you did not have to worry about offending this group or that group for whatever reason. Simply focusing on making a film that tells a compelling story and [...]

I am usually not someone who completely tears into bad movies in reviews because I've been a member of the creative community too long to understand that someone put heart and effort into even the worst of films. And yet, "The Fog, " the [...]

Transporter 2

Arriving on DVD is the widely panned, somewhat disappointing sequel to 2002's "The Transporter" aptly titled "Transporter 2". I always felt that the first film started off in the right direction, but slowly lost my interest [...]

Last night I simply wanted to view something light-hearted and funny, and "the Man" fell into my hands. Starring Samuel L. Jackson and Eugene Levy, the film had credentials and I decided to give it a spin. What followed was a great spoof on [...]

Walt Disney Treasures: Elfego Baca/Swamp Fox

I don't remember seeing Walt Disney wearing two six-guns and cowboy boots on "Walt Disney Presents" as a kid. Now I don't have to remember. Just pick up Disney's brand-new special, limited edition, 2-disc DVD "Walt Disney [...]
