Appaloosa Podcast |
The spaghetti Western is back; this time with a simple but interesting story. Appaloosa has a great cast, moments of drama, humor and honor. Not as good as 3:10 to Yuma, but definitely a film for fans of this dying genre. |

Robert Kearns is an inventor whose new windshield wiper design got stolen by a big automaker company. Greg Kinnear does an excellent job as the dedicated inventor. Greg C and Nar loved the film. |

House on Haunted Hill Podcast |
Starting no other than master of suspense Vincent Price. We were luck to catch a special screening of this black & white classic. The story involves an eccentric millionaire and his guests who are about to have a party in a so-called haunted house. This is the perfect B horror film from the 50s that relies on atmosphere and acting; rather than unnecessary gore. We recommend it. |

Nights in Rodanthe Podcast |
Nights in Rodanthe is another lame “romantic” comedy by Richard Gere and the beautiful Diane Lane. This movie could have been sent straight to video, but surprisingly it did ok at the box office. We like chick’s flicks (there are good ones out there) but not this one. |

Eagle Eye Podcast |
An action film with an excellent concept but poorly executed; Eagle Eye turns tedious and repetitive very fast. We both say “proceed with caution!” |

The Bride and the Beast Podcast |
This is an old film we say in our local theater recently. Ed Wood Jr. wrote the script! What else can we say from the master of the “B” films from the 1950s? If you like his “so bad its good” style of filmmaking, by all means, rent it or buy for just few dollars. |

Pineapple Express Podcast |
Just like its comical predecessors, Pineapple Express will not disappoint fans of this new wave of comedy that Judd Apatow is part of—this time we get two friends who got mixed up with drug lords a la Dumb & Dumber. |

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor |
There are things that should be left untouched—in this case, buried under the sand—for eternity. Despite the Hollywood “sequel” curse written in stone, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor rises, but fails to impress or entertain anybody. |

The X-Files II: I Want to Believe |
The Award-Winning TV Show The X-Files have seen better days. It was once a terrific sci-fi show that dealt with two FBI agents who worked together to solve paranormal cases, mostly related to aliens from other worlds and dimensions. But after a decade since the first film (and more than six years since the last season), the true twilight zone moment is the lack of imagination (or common sense) by the writers to come up with something interesting or halfway decent. |

Hellboy II: The Golden Army Podcast |
An excellent sequel of the 2004 original, Hellboy: The Golden Army is another great film by Guillermo del Toro who has reinvented fantasy films by writing great stories, adding just enough action, creating interesting characters with state-of-the-art graphics and make-up. We are looking forward to see more of his fantastic films.

The Dark Knight Podcast |
The Dark Knight might go down in history as the most overrated film ever made—my other candidates are Titanic and Knocked Up—with so much unnecessary hype it’s sickening. Yes, it is a respectable film with good action sequences, philosophy and a late actor who gave an excellent performance, but it’s far from being the best superhero movie of the year (that title goes to Iron Man). |

Hancock Podcast |
We say it all the time; Will Smith is a talented, charismatic and mesmerizing actor. But the issues with Hancock however, are the writers’ lack of imagination, the mixed signals about its genre, and an action director whose camera style is not suitable for this kind of film. In the end, Hancock is a movie that has a good movie star who delivers, but everything around him is tedious and uncreative—without him, it would be unwatchable. |

WALL-E Podcast |
WALL-E is without a doubt, one of the best animated films ever. Its greatness relies not only on graphics and lovely characters, but on its ecological message. Pixar’s first political film is also its most powerful one. |

Wanted Podcast |
Wanted might not be another Matrix, but it’s definitely a respectable shoot-‘em-up film about an average Joe who turns into a deadly assassin. It might be a bit cliché with the story, but it has plenty of style, action and humor, and please don’t think too much about The Fraternity’s ways because the more you think about it, the less it makes sense. |

The Incredible Hulk Podcast Review |
Despite those small complains, The Incredible Hulk will not disappoint Marvel fans (heck! Even Tony Stark is here). Its faithfulness to the TV series is what makes the film much interesting and entertaining that the 2003 version that every Marvel employee wants to forget. |
