Coming off the odd success of Napoleon Dynamite (not related to Black Dynamite), creator Jared Hess presents another oddball story of a struggling loser trying to find his smile. Capped with flying deer, cyclops sporting beautiful pink outfits and a plagiaristic author, there's no telling where the story might go. Let's see how it went.

There are interesting stories, and there are interesting films. I'm not sure this one falls into the second category.

In 2003, martial artist Tony Jaa starred in Ong-Bak, a film from Thailand that was well received in the US. A sequel was produced only recently, and both films came to Blu-ray this week.

Fantastic love story.... with some music.

Tough movie.

What a debut! Barrymore most definitely "whipped" that one!

Fox has some interesting taste.  Sometimes they're good picking shows and sometimes they're bad. Sometimes, just sometimes, they're in the middle; and that can be perfect.

I never turned 20 with such grace.

20th Century Fox and WWE Studios are back with another straight to video action film. This time it's The Marine 2, a sequel to Jon Cena's The Marine which came out in 2006. There is no connection between the two films other than the name, although they do share another commonality: neither are worth a purchase, but die hard action fans may want to give them a rent.  

What a cute and inventively offbeat romance? It was wonderful!

Somethings... are just better the first time around

Every once in a while there is a box set that a studio releases that you simply must have for your collection. In this case, that studio is Fox, and that box set is the Mel Brooks Collection on Blu-ray. With nine of Mel's greatest films complete with new extra features and a gorgeous exclusive 120 page hardcover book, you can hardly go wrong -- especially at these prices. Let's take a closer look at this fantastic box set.

Sometimes when you repeat the magic of an idea over and over it can be driven straight into the ground, and that magic fades out.

Oh, boy.
