Alice in Wonderland fails on Blu-ray, Michelle’s Review!
You have to hand to Disney; they really are treating this Blu-ray release like a million bucks. Almost every day last week they had arranged internet chats with several of the production folks involved (but hey, no Tim Burton or Danny Elfman?), provided a ton of clips and more. I actually got excited for this […]
MOVIE REVIEW: Tribeca VOD: Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll Lives Up to Its Larger Than Life Subject!
Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll is three parts straight ahead biographical film to one part impressionistic bits – all dealing with the life of the late Ian Dury [Andy Serkis], rock & roll entertainer extraordinaire.

MOVIE REVIEW: Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time – Epic but Ephemeral!
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is a movie filled with running, jumping, fighting [with fists, words, knives, snakes and darts – among other things]. Like Thief of Baghdad on acid, it is filled with visual wonders and feats of derring-do. It is, in fact, a swashbuckler that, CG aside, owes far more […]
MOVIE REVIEW: TRIBECA VOD: The Infidel – An Extreme Case of Identity Crisis!
You know the expression Sunday Christian? Well, Mahmud Nasir [Omid Djalili] is the Muslim equivalent. He prays five times a day… mostly; he hardly ever swears… he says, and maybe, after a stressful day, a bit of pale ale may pass his lips. In his heart, though, he is a fervent Muslim with a good […]
