— by WILLIAM STERR — You look at the poster for this film and, at least on the one I saw, Danny Trejo (“Machete”) is top billed. Other posters display him prominently. Pretty good work if you can get it, because Danny only appears early for three minutes and 49 seconds (9:25 – 12:1[...]

Review: Machete Kills
— by JAMES SHAW — Machete is a spoof character from the Quentin Tarantino/Robert Rodriguez double-feature movie “Grindhouse” and the character was not only given its own movie, but, unfortunately, a sequel as well. Danny Trejo returns as the title character in “Machete Kills” and[...]
Under Review: ‘A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas’
— by ADAM POYNTER — “A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas” is the world’s first drug-induced, holiday 3D movie spectacular. Years after they visited White Castle and Guantanamo Bay, Harold (John Cho) and Kumar (Kal Penn) are no longer best friends, but rather awkward acq[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Spy Kids: All the Time in the World’
— by LYNN TACKITT — Speaking as one who had stepmothers, I always wanted one that was cool and fun. I sure never got one as cool as Marissa Cortez Wilson (played by Jessica Alba). Everything looks good and normal for Marissa; she has a famous spy hunter husband, Wilbur (Joel McHale), and[...]
The Fuzzy Pack is Back in New ‘Muppets’ Trailer
— by SHERICE ANTOINETTE — The Wolf Pack has nothing on The Fuzzy Pack. Capitalizing on the release of “The Hangover Part II,” Disney has released a new trailer for “The Muppets” and it’s very clever. Similar to a few “Hangover” spots seen in the past, this one-minute teaser[...]
Five Clips from ‘Gun’
— by JOSUE SANCHEZ — The clips below are for the movie “Gun,” starring Val Kilmer, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson (also a producer) and AnnaLynne McCord. I tried to find an official description for it, but there isn’t one available yet, but I did find this brief description: [...]
Under Review: ‘Death Race 2’
— by JOSUE SANCHEZ — I am not sure how a movie with bad acting and bad editing can possibly turn out to be quite entertaining, but this was the case with “Death Race 2.” I really enjoyed the recent remake of “Death Race” — even though I was not a fan of the[...]
Two Clips from ‘Death Race 2’
— by JOSUE SANCHEZ — “Death Race 2” might actually turn out to be better than expected. I really was surprised by the last installment and Jason Statham played his part well. It was full of surprises and I loved the way they were able to escape. All of these were pleasant unexpected [...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Death Race 2’
— by SEAN GERSKI — I never saw the Jason Statham version of “Death Race.” Sure, I thought about it. I mean, I like watching Statham blow stuff up as much as anyone. Yet, I still haven’t got around to checking it out. However, the one reason I even thought about watching[...]
Under Review: ‘Machete’
— by MARIUSZ ZUBROWSKI — It took a sick imagination, critical acclaim for the film’s faux-trailer beginnings in “Grindhouse,” and time away from directing garbage such as “Shorts” for Robert Rodriguez to finally get off his butt and finally helm “Mache[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Machete’
— by JESSIKA OWENS — Back in 2007, Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino brought us “Grindhouse,” which consisted of “Planet Terror” and “Death Proof,” but along with the duel feature-length films, came mock theatrical trailers. These fake trailers in[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Predators’
— by JOSUE SANCHEZ — It is with great joy that I utter the words: We are finally getting a new “Predator” movie. Doesn’t that just sound spectacular? And I am not talking about an “Alien vs. Predator” sequel, but a full-pledged “Predator” movie. [...]
Poster Peek: ‘The Expendables’
— by JOSUE SANCHEZ — Growing up in the ’80s only helped the fact that I have great admiration for Sylvester Stallone. He was at that time, the person that we sought after when looking for great action movies. He was the man people around me admired and looked up too. He was “[...]
