Review in a Nutshell: Brash, crude, and confrontational, Predator 2 is nonetheless a film worth revisiting over and over again.

Review in a Nutshell: A technically adept film with outstanding visual composition and moments of genuine humor, Scott Pilgrim vs the World is nonetheless dragged under by an onslaught of unsympathetic characters. It is the triumph of style over substance.

It’s hard out there for a Samurai…

Make your decisions in the space of seven breaths, because

featuring Sean ‘Hollywood’ Hunting.

Review in a Nutshell: I think I pronounce Jim Jarmusch’s last name about ten different ways in this recording about a movie involving urban samurai, aging gangsters, icecream, and a boat on a roof. I don’t even know who I am any more. What year is this?

This movie contains:

Henry Silva, keeping it real.

It Came from Bronson Canyon!

Mix up the DDT, because Earth vs the Spider is the Greatest Movie EVER!

Click on the DVD cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring the return of M.O.M..

Review in a Nutshell: Combining nature footage of an adorable tarantula with some rather rough matte effects, Earth vs the Spider is a cheesy horror movie from the 1950s that nevertheless has a certain charm. Giant invertebrates on the rampage were a common theme back then.

This movie contains:

Giant Spiders.

This Lady.

“Who’s callin’ Hugo?”

“I’m not going to say that it was aliens…”

Bone up on your ancient Egyptian heiroglyphics, because Stargate is the Greatest Movie EVER!

Click on the poster or the title above to download our review of the film,

featuring guest host Ro from Atomic Trivia War 9000.

Review in a Nutshell: Like many of Emmerich’s other films, Stargate is long on production value and short on plot. Spader and Russell are able to bring life and personality to their characters, though, and the costumes and sets still look great nearly two decades after the film’s debut.

Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Sean “Hollywood” Hunting.

Review in a Nutshell: Although it fails to strike the proper balance between brainy science fiction and dumb action movie, Equilibrium is a movie that succeeds despite itself, mostly on the strengths of Christian Bale’s performance and the action scenes featuring gun-kata, the improbably entertaining fictional martial art of wielding firearms.

This movie contains:

Sean Bean, Offender of Senses.

ACTING.

“Hey, not my face. I need that.”

“Waiter, what’s this werewolf doing in my soup?”

Beware the moon, because An American Werewolf in London is the Greatest Movie EVER!

Review in a Nutshell: An old-fashioned horror tale with plenty of humor to lighten the mood, An American Werewolf in London also set the standard for on-screen transformation sequences that has yet to be surprassed.

Clint Eastwood, you are not Sean Connery.

Strap in your caribiners, because The Eiger Sanction is the Greatest Movie EVER!

Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Sean “Hollywood” Hunting.

Review in a Nutshell: A spy movie based off of a deadly serious reading of a satirical novel by Trevanian, The Eiger Sanction captures the zeitgeist of the Seventies in a way that few other films do, not that this is always a good thing. The mountain-climbing scenes in the third act are breath-taking.
