"Friday the 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter" movie review by Ben Kenber

2009-07-04T15:07:00.002-04:00

I was in the second grade when this movie came out back in 1984. It was also one of the few movies in this endless series to actually open on Friday the 13th. Looking back, it was interesting to see a lot of 8 and 9 years old get excited about a movie that had absolutely no business seeing at that age. Whether the adults liked it or not, these movies did play a part be it big or small in our

"The Hangover" review by Ben Kenber

2009-07-04T15:03:00.002-04:00

“The Hangover” is now officially the sleeper hit of the Summer 2009 movie season. Judging from the reaction it elicited from its trailers, that was certain to be the case as much as Eddie Murphy’s “Imagine That” was expected to be a bomb. The best way for me to describe this movie is that it is wicked funny. It’s not afraid to break any particular taboos, and its setup is ingenious. While part of

"Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen" review by Ben Kenber

2009-06-27T18:08:00.002-04:00

Ok, to a certain extent I have been happy to defend Michael Bay on some (certainly not all) of his movies. “The Rock” was a kick ass action movie, and it brought Nicholas Cage to a whole new level of stardom which he has since pissed away (to a certain extent anyway). When he gave us “Transformers” two years ago, it seemed really good when you compared it to a lot of his other movies. It seemed

"I've Loved You So Long" review by Ben Kenber

2009-06-24T00:38:00.002-04:00

Matt Damon, when he was on “Inside The Actor’s Studio,” said that if you want to win an Oscar, you have to do the flashiest role possible. It has to be a role with big dramatic moments where you are crying out to the heavens because that’s what the Academy seems to love and respond to the most. Matt also said that the performances where the actors don’t ever make it look like they are acting,

Jonas Pate's "Shrink" is a striking, fast-paced exposé of the “other” Hollywood, featuring folks living outside their comfort zone and the people who put them there.
