Lionsgate
Available March 4, 2008
It was supposed to be a lightning quick and perfect bank robbery, as five military veterans lead by the codenamed Mr. Wolf (John Leguizamo) assault a Pittsburgh bank, steal the millions of dollars that have just been delivered, and head off into the sunset in the waiting getaway car. But when variables beyond their control foil their plot, they are forced to hole up inside the bank with the terrified hostages. As S.W.A.T. take their positions and await further instructions, so do the curious crowd and media reports take theirs. Amidst this confusion is Horst Cali (Donnie Wahlberg), a top-ranked negotiator who has never lost a hostage...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

Things here in the UK can be a little tame.
Therefore, isn't it any wonder that the missus and I seek the need to look further a field to satiate our somewhat lowbrow interests? I say this, not because I'm some kind of deviant (albeit desirable), but because as I've often stated in my past reviews that the UK, Britain, England offers very little compared to the likes of Los Angeles, America, or the World in general...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

DVD Review: Caillou's Family Favorites
Caillou's Family Favorites
Animated
PBS/Paramount Home Video
Available February 26, 2008
Sometimes you don’t need a lot of flashy graphics or madcap zany mayhem to reach pre-schoolers and toddlers.
Sometimes, you just need simple stories and simple animation.
Caillou falls into the latter category. Caillou is a cartoon series based on the series of books by Christine L'Heureux and illustrator Hélène Desputeaux. In the series, Caillou is a 4-year-old who is learning while growing up, and getting into a little mischief but always learning his lesson in the end.
His family includes his mother Doris, father Boris, sister Rosie, and his Grandma and Grandpa. They help teach him about life and learning from his actions. The slogan of the show is “Growing Up Is The Greatest Adventure Of All” and anyone with small children knows that’s the truth!...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

Movie Review: Semi-Pro
Semi-Pro
Directed by Kent Alterman
Starring Will Ferrell, Woody Harrelson, Andre 'Andre 3000’ Benjamin, Jay Phillips, Will Arnett
Rated R
Release date: February 29, 2008
Certain things in life we have been conditioned to just take for granted. For example, I know that every October I go on a camping trip into the middle of nowhere, every weekend I see at least one new movie in the theatre, and Will Ferrell is one of the most consistent comedic actors working today. This is why the following statement physically pains me to type...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

The ’Once’ Enigma
The Oscars this year came with record low numbers of viewers. Personally, the Academy Awards are another Super Bowl for me; I wait impatiently for them, prepare for them, see as many of the nominees as humanly possible, and even print out a ballot and make my picks. Surely not many take them that seriously, but if you were one of the few who did watch it, you were treated to one of the true great moments in Oscar history...continue reading this article at Geeks of Doom!

“Even network news is recycling the story. So much for covering the bombings in Iraq.”
We all kind of have a secret love affair with tabloid press. We perch ourselves on one side or the other of the unspoken moral argument, but however you look at it, we’re all guilty. We’ve all read the stories or seen the headlines. I wouldn’t say most of us knowingly seek them out, but it’s almost impossible to avoid. Why would we? As sad a commentary as it is to say aloud, it’s free entertainment. Equally sad is the fact that it’s not entirely our fault. We really have nowhere to hide and we really have no choice. Over the past decade, tabloid press has risen from the seedy underbelly of journalism to the mainstream. You can barely pull up the front page of a news website, read the paper, or turn on the national news without the barrage of ‘now what happened?’ information being regurgitated onto us about the latest celebrity train wreck flavor of the week. As sensational as it is and as much as part of us wants to see them turn it all around, we keep reading out of sheer morbid curiosity. Anyway, that’s just what constitutes 'news'...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

Movie Review: Charlie Bartlett
Charlie Bartlett
Directed by Jon Poll
Starring Anton Yelchin, Robert Downey, Jr., Hope Davis
Rated R
Release date: February 22nd, 2008
"Incredible! One of the worst performances of my career and they never doubted it for a second." – Matthew Broderick, Ferris Bueller's Day Off
"M-I-L-F Mom I'd Like to Fuck!" – John Cho, American Pie
John Hughes is considered one of the greatest minds in teenaged cinema for the past twenty years. Not only did he bring along what we now call The Brat Pack, he helped create the films -- The Breakfast Club, Weird Science, Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, and Ferris Bueller's Day Off are among the many classic high school flicks that teenagers now look at today as classics. That's true; I consider The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller to be two of the greatest films on the planet (hell, I don't even want to begin about how many times I pulled off the Ferris Bueller trick… every teenager deserves to watch that)...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!
