CAPSULE MOVIE REVIEWS: Ghosts of Girlfriends Past

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (PG-13) – If visual stimuli are your thing (as they are for most people), then you have Matthew McConaughey and Jennifer Garner to gawk at. If you need more than a spoonful of story and acting, this chick flick may not do it for you. It’s highly deriviative and not [...]

CAPSULE MOVIE REVIEWS: Monsters vs. Aliens

CAPSULE MOVIE REVIEWS: Wolverine

X-Men Origins: Wolverine (PG-13) – It is not getting the acclaim that Star Trek is, but we say Wolverine is a better film.

Angels and Demons (R) – More of Dan Brown’s anti-Catholic polemic. This time secret scientists are out for a vendetta against a brutal 500-year-old [...]
