Faster Review

William McPherson

(Warning, contains slight spoilers) Ah, now this is more like it. For a while there I thought we’d lost you Dwayne. Don’t get me wrong, you were as likeable as ever in all those affable little kids movies like ‘Race to Witch Mountain’ and ‘The Tooth Fairy’, but it was beyond fine time that you returned to your bread and butter, that being a good nitty gritty hard boiled action flick. This last year we were blessed with two such outings from the former WWE superstar, both with similar titles…

Chazz and Rex are testing Chris Moore CHAZZ: Let me ask you a question. Which side did you take in the big Van Halen / David Lee Roth split? MOORE: Uh...what do you mean? (Chris Moore fidgets nervously.) MILO: What kind of question is that? CHAZZ: Which way did you go, man? Roth or Halen? MOORE: Van Halen? IAN: He's a cop. (Chazz tosses Chris Moore's wallet to the ground.) CHAZZ: Later, bacon. REX: Oink oink! MOORE: Come on, come on! That's strictly a judgment call, those guys sold a lot of…

Moonraker Review

William McPherson

Hello everyone and welcome to the eleventh edition in my series of reviews chronicling the James Bond film franchise. Tonight the picture we will be paying some extra special attention to is none other than 1979’s ‘Moonraker’ starring Roger Moore in this his fourth outing as Ian Fleming’s noted super spy, Agent 007, James Bond.

InFamous 2 Review

Gary Smith5 Comments

The end of Sucker Punch's 2009 smash hit InFamous let everyone know that a sequel was coming because when the first one was over, you knew that everything you as Cole had just went through was in preparation for a much larger battle to come: a battle against the Beast. You don't have to wait long to battle the Beast either, as you'll fight him during the first few minutes of the game. Cole, even with his powers, is still not strong enough to take down the monster and flees with Zeke and new pal…

The Man With The Golden Gun Review

William McPherson

Hello everyone and welcome to the ninth edition in my series of reviews chronicling the James Bond film franchise. Tonight our film of choice is 1974’s ‘The Man with the Golden Gun’ starring Roger Moore in just his second outing as the noted British super-spy, agent 007, James Bond. With this movie Roger Moore became the first actor since Sean Connery to appear in more than one movie as Bond, and so with that then you could officially say that the Roger Moore era was finally in full swing, and…

L.A. Noire Review

Gary Smith11 Comments

This review may contain spoilers. This is going to be a hard review to write, especially with trying not to include spoilers (the warning is there for a reason though). If you read my quick thoughts on the game after spending a few hours with it Tuesday, then you know what I initially thought of the game. I loved it; it was fresh and different, and the world was beautiful. Now that I've finished the main story, I'm not exactly feeling the same way. Exploring 1947 Los Angeles is still an absolute…

The Other Guys Review

William McPherson1 Comment

The one remaining thought in my mind after having now watched ‘The Other Guys’ isn’t how good an action comedy it is, which it is, to be sure, or how funny a pair that Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg make, which they do, but that, I now, more than anything, need for there to be an entire movie pairing up Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson as badass detectives in a major metropolitan city. Though these two were not nearly as big a part of the movie as the trailers suggested they still…

Enslaved – Odyssey To The West Review

Gary Smith5 Comments

Enslaved is a rarity in this day and age. It's a new IP, it completely leaves out any form of multiplayer, and it's strictly a linear experience. This all results in one of the best single player games out there thanks to a masterfully crafted story, beautiful cinematics and atmosphere, some really exciting sequences of gameplay, and some well developed combat. You play as Monkey, and you have a sidekick whose abilities you can control named Trip. In the beginning, it seems like it is going to…

James Bond 007 is back! Hello everyone and welcome to the sixth installment in my series of reviews chronicling the entire James Bond film franchise. In this edition for the first time since I started writing these reviews we have not only a different sort of Bond movie to explore, but also a brand new Bond to examine as well. The film is 1969’s On Her Majesty's Secret Service directed by Peter R. Hunt and starring none other than the infamous model turned actor, George Lazenby, in the role of…

InFamous Review

Gary Smith11 Comments

I'm not a comic book fan and don't particularly care for superhero stuff at all. Despite hearing great things about InFamous, it never really appealed to me as something I'd want to buy. When I finally got a Playstation 3, it came bundled with two games: Killzone 2 and InFamous. In addition to those two games, I also got plenty of other PS3 games at the same time. I played InFamous very little; I tried it out and was routinely getting killed without even seeing where the enemies were at. It was…

Idiocracy Review

William McPherson1 Comment

“The Future Is A No Brainer.” “Damn… I’m pregnant again!” decries one trailer bound woman holding a home pregnancy test at the beginning of this film. It’s a shame this movie wasn’t released during last year’s election cycle, because Idiocracy is the perfect antidote to the socialistic liberal policy of financially rewarding and encouraging those families who keep having child after child even though they don’t have the means to support any of them monetarily, in order that there will be…

The Saboteur Review

Gary Smith1 Comment

The Saboteur is a World War 2 game, yet one that isn't boring and worn out. Instead of being a first person shooter reliving the same battles again and again, Saboteur is a third person shooter taking place in Nazi occupied Paris, France. Instead of being a member of one of the Allied military's, you play as a mechanic turned race car driver named Sean Devlin, who joins the resistance against the Nazi's for reasons motivated by revenge. During the course of exacting your revenge against the evil…

Mafia II has a great story and impressive attention to detail, but a hollow open world, weak melee, and PS3 freezing issues keep it from being more. Three out of five.

Terminator Salvation Review

There are a few odds and ends I should get out of the way before I begin this review. First off you should know that the version of the film I am reviewing is the directors cut release. I did not see the original theatrical cut, and thus cannot really say a whole lot about the differences here and whatnot, so please forgive me in that regards. Also, after watching this I, as per my usual pre-review routine, read around to see what the general critical consensus was on this movie, and found that…
