I would have never thought in a million years A WALK AMONG THE TOMBSTONES would be such a white-knuckled and well-acted movie. When Liam Neeson is constantly playing Your Worst Nightmare, it’s easy to dismiss this as another cha-ching in the former Jedi’s pocketbook. That’s probably due to the trailer, which isn’t very good, but the movie gets a big fat B+ from me and you can hear my review on the KVNU For the People Movie show by clicking …

For the second straight weekend DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES ruled the box office, bringing its two week haul to a respectable $139 million and change. It might be one of the best-reviewed movies of the summer, but I think it could bumped with LUCY, HERCULES (sadly) and GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY all about to hit multiplexes across the country.

It’s too easy to crap on Michael Bay and I won’t hop on that bandwagon. Also, he likes to blow shit up and I like watching shit blow up, so, you know, we complete each other. I also generally enjoy Mark Wahlberg, especially when he (or Andy Sandberg) talks to animals. Click here to …
I wanted oh-so-badly to like 22 JUMP STREET, but despite the greatness of Lord and Miller, as well as all the wink-wink jokes of how terrible sequels generally turn out, I found this unfunny and kinda boring. GASP! I know. I know. At any rate, lend your ear to this lovely podcast of the KVNU For The People Movie Show where we talk about the not-so-funny 22 JUMP STREET.
What a great weekend for movies! Fans of the John Green young adult novel – THE FAULT IN OUR STARS – can unleash the sniffles and tears in the darkness of the theater, or fans of Tom Cruise can hit up EDGE OF TOMORROW and wonder why in the flying eff a movie with such terrible trailers and horrible marketing can be so ever-lovin’ fantastic. We talked about both of these gems and you can relive the wonder that is …
