Today we get the chance to see the trailer for the bloody, hilarious, absurd and no holds barred follow up to Matthew Vaughn’s Kick-Ass. Universal’s Kick-Ass 2 picks up not long after the events this first film…and it’s everything you’d expect in a comic book sequel. We get more heroes (including Colonel Stars and Stripes, who is played by chameleon Jim Carrey), more action and more of everything that comes with it, especially the tone and fun that was had in the 2012 film. Enjoy the first RED BAND trailer for this over the top sequel! Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl will need all the help they can get, because a foe from the first film, Red…

Off the Shelf…Walt Disney’s ‘The Hunchback of Notre Dame I & II’
The Hunchback of Notre Dame, is a very different type of Disney film and further a bold step for Walt Disney Feature Animation. To some Hunchback can be considered a classic as well as a paradigm shift that marks a divergent tone in series of features previously found in the Disney catalog. For years Disney films were filled with a mix of fanciful characters and/or led solely by an assortment of cute and fuzzy (sometimes feathered) animals. But when, save for The Lion King, have we got a misunderstood male character that was actually a male (read: human, not animal)? The answer, we think, is never. Anyway this story, about…

Off the Shelf…Walt Disney's 'Mulan I & II'
In their 36th animated feature, Walt Disney Feature Animation brings an ancient legend to life in this colorful tale about the brave Chinese warrior Mulan. The story of the titular heroine, Hua Mulan, follows the tomboyish girl who disguises herself as a young man so she can fight with the Imperial Chinese Army against the invading Huns. This rousing adventure, one that blends fact and fiction, is as exciting as it is fun and full of the familiar Disney mainstays; a trifecta of colorful characters, kooky sidekicks and an almost fantasy-based story line. Walt Disney Home Entertainment releases this underrated story, and its less than flattering sequel, in a glamorous Blu-Ray Collector’s…

G-S-T Review…Dead Man Down
Typically, a chorus of disapproval accompanies the arrival of celebrated foreign filmmakers in Hollywood. The studio system, so goes the familiar song and dance, will suck the life right out of their work and excise everything special about them in favor of formula and higher box office returns. There are, of course, exceptions. Alfred Hitchcock and Paul Verhoeven, for instance, produced some of their best films their respective Tinseltown tenures, but they could well be examples that prove the rule; far more often we see directors visiting from overseas, like Susanne Bier and Fernando Meirelles, get chewed up and spat out on the sidewalk, their style rendered unrecognizable courtesy of…

G-S-T Review…Greedy Lying Bastards
Get ready to get angry. Of course, if you pay attention to the social and political dialogue surrounding climate change, you probably already are, and that spells trouble for Craig Rosebraugh’s outrage-doc, Greedy Lying Bastards. Provocative and inciting, the film very much preaches to the choir; if you believe, as you should, that global warming is happening right now, then Greedy Lying Bastards won’t do much more than serve as an ideological affirmation. On the other hand, Rosebraugh probably won’t change the minds of anyone who falls on the same side of the fence as career climate change deniers, at least not while he’s so busy being sarcastic and self-righteous.…

G-S-T Review…Oz the Great and Powerful
Who wouldn’t want to travel to the wondrous and imaginative worlds we’ve seen grace the silver screen? Chief among the most magical candidates has to be the Land of Oz. In this prequel to the 1939 classic, Sam Raimi shows us how the “Wizard of Oz” became so Great and Powerful. Usually it’s with extreme hesitation that one would chose to add to the mythology of property as legendary as The Wizard of Oz. Others smartly leave well enough alone. After all, the sequel and TV spin offs have yielded results paling in comparison to Victor Fleming’s film. Since going back has been done before the only place to go is back to the beginning, right? How very contemporary. The film…

Sweet Trailer…'The Hangover III'
The three best friends that anyone could have are back for their third outing and this time the boys are going out with a bang. As the poster tagline denotes, “It All Ends” but before we get too excited we have ask, what, if anything, did they learn from their last misadventure? We hope they answered that retreaded (rotoscoped is more like it) jokes just don’t have the same impact. To be fair, that blatant redo of the first film’s jokes was the joke but sadly it all landed with a dud…or maybe it got lost in translation. Anyway, we’re in America and here our heroes get three strikes, right?…
