"King of Kong" is the story of Steve Weibe, a man who seeks to scale the ranks of the competitive video gaming world by earning the top score in Donkey Kong. Why, you ask? Because of the perfect storm of calamity in his life that caused him to wash ashore...

With Mr. Woodcock, New Line Home Entertainment tries to combine the slapstick comedy and ironic portrayal of macho-sports mentality seen in DodgeBall with the sadistically menacing and traumatic main character of Bad Santa. In order to realize this goal, Billy Bob Thornton was appropriately cast to play essentially the same...

  I had so much hope for this film. I really did. It had been long overdue to be made into a live-action film. The 1986 movie (which was animated) really did the series justice and even brought about new tales in the different renditions of the overall storyline. When there...
