Quick Review: Neighbors (2014)

NEIGHBORS BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLSEPTEMBER 23, 2014 Unlike Adam Sandler, who, as he has gotten older, has gone from raunchy comedies to watered-down family comedies, Seth Rogen continues to take steps deeper and deeper into the world of dirty comedies.

Quick Review: I Give It A Year (2013)

I GIVE IT A YEAR BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLNOVEMBER 24, 2013 A British romantic comedy meets humor the likes of “The Office,” the phoned-in “I Give It A Year” stars a welcoming cast with nothing to show for it.

Quick Review: Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

Quick Review: Insidious (2011)

INSIDIOUS BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLSEPTEMBER 15, 2013 In a throwback to old horror, “Insidious” dodges the cheap thrills of modern horror and delves into what disturbs audiences. Quick camera cuts, well constructed audio designs, and a chilling story are enough to cause constant spooks throughout the film. The last portion of the film, set in “another world,” I could have done without, but I appreciate … Read More Quick Review: Insidious (2011)

Quick Review: 28 Weeks Later (2007)

28 WEEKS LATER BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLAPRIL 18, 2013 Lacking the originality and ingenuity of “28 Days Later”, as suspected, “28 Weeks Later” is not the sequel Danny Boyle fans anticipated. Although the idea of quarantine and zombie apocalypse is a well-versed topic, mainly by the popular series “Resident Evil,” the retread is justified by above-average cinematography, a stellar ensemble cast, and enough action to … Read More Quick Review: 28 Weeks Later (2007)

Movie Review: Bridesmaids (2011)

BRIDESMAIDS BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLDECEMBER 19, 2011 I was not a massive fan of “Bridesmaids” after my initial viewing. Partial blame rests on the hype surrounding the film after its opening weekend. , The female-written, Judd Apatow-produced film was billed as the funniest comedy of the year, and it could not live up to that. Seven months later, after the hype died down, I saw … Read More Movie Review: Bridesmaids (2011)
