If you are a fan of Will Ferrell and his off-beat brand of comedy, then this is a MUST-SEE movie! Ferrell is at his funniest in this film based upon the cult classic old-school television show, “Land of the Lost”. The belly laughs start immediately when Dr. Rick Marshall (Ferrell) squares off with Matt Lauer [...]

I’m going to give Slim Shady’s latest effort a “green light”–but just barely.   Without question, Eminem is one of the best M.C.’s out there.  For years he has bucked the notion that he’s a one-trick pony or some gimmicky side-show act ala “Snow”; “Vanilla Ice”; etc.  (Sorry, Em for even mentioning those names).  When it [...]

O.K. I literally just walked in the door after seeing “The Soloist” this morning. In short, it is a good movie and it is certainly worth seeing. However, it’s not a “feel-good” movie. Not really. The movie stars Robert Downey, Jr. as Los Angeles Times columnist, Steve Lopez, who happens upon a homeless Nathaniel Anthony [...]

I consider myself a comic book “nerd” of sorts.  It has been a while since I bought any but I used to be one of the dedicated pre-pubescent boys looking forward to the days when the new issues would be released.  When I started buying comics, they only cost 40 cents each.  If I had a [...]
