Movies

Movie review

'White House Down'
Intentionally or not, this is the comedy hit of the summer. Each nutty scenario is surpassed by the next, ludicrous story lines coalesce with expert orchestration, and absurd details return with perfect timing to build to a crescendo of hilarity. 
Movie Review

'Maniac'
Elijah Wood plays a creep who kills women and attaches their scalps to mannequins in this remake of the notorious 1980 slasher flick.

Movie Review

'The Heat'
If youre going to make a dopey, foul-mouthed, predictable lady-buddy-cop movie, you might as well make it funny. And until it overstays its welcome, The Heat is shamefully funny.
