Observe and Report
Observe and Report quiz.
Dubbed as a dark mall cop movie -- or better yet, Paul Blart's evil twin -- Observe and Report stars Seth Rogen as the baddest of all mall security heads. He's brash, obnoxious and totally obsessed and totally obsessed with who he is and what he does.
Weekend Wrap-Up
Hey! What's she gonna do with that pig?.
After a surprisingly huge opening weekend at the box office, Alice in Wonderland was looking for an Avatar-sized hold this weekend. The Tim Burton film opened to an amazing $116.1 million last weekend, and Disney would have been looking for depreciation to be around between 30% and 40%, as the pressure is on to earn as much as possible before losing its 3-D screens to DreamWorks' How to Train Your Dragon on March 26th
     


 
Friday Box Office Analysis
Hey! That's not Bella!

Are You With Us?
The fourth hour of Zodiac is all song-and-dance numbers, unexpectedly
There are all sorts of scenarios going on in You Can Count On Me, enough for us to relate to at least one.
Chapter Two
Victoria's Secret Catalog, circa 1954
Deceptive cover art on videos and DVDs. Aussie actresses. NC17 films. Would be trilogies that wind up a chapter short. Coming of age tales. Dame Helen Mirren using the word "naughty" to describe me.
Survivor Recap
He's happy about his trophy, but saddened by tonight's Tribal Council.
Previously on Survivor, Tom found the Immunity Idol. Not coincidentally, Tom survived Tribal Council.
Mythology: Chuck
He's stomping the floor-cam. That's gonna be expensive to fix.
A few weeks back, upon Chuck's return to the small screen for its third season, I expressed a great deal of disappointment in the direction the show had taken.
Sandra Bullock
Sandra Bullock quiz
She's a longtime popular favorite who at long last won critical acclaim. How well do you know Sandra Bullock?
Review: A Prophet
This feels like a film our site ought to love.
Don and Michael Corleone; Tony "Scarface" Montana; Henry Hill; the Joker - these are reprehensible human beings for whom we have the utmost respect, at least for a time.
Best Overlooked Film Revisited
They're all going to die. If you don't believe me, just watch the trailer.
Nobody with a soul could possibly argue that Edgar Wright's Hot Fuzz isn't one of the funniest films of the decade.
