Review: PLANES

By Mark Saldana  Rating: 2 (Out of 4 Stars) From “The World of Cars”, DisneyToon Studios presents this spin off movie which thankfully does not carry the Disney/Pixar label. The name Disney/Pixar, at one time, represented a high standard of beautiful computer animation and magical storytelling. Last year’s Brave and this year’s Monster’s University have… Continue reading Review: PLANES

Review: ELYSIUM

By Laurie Coker Rating: C- In a season of sci-fi thrillers, like Oblivion, World War Z, in my book, Eyslium fails to deliver.  An over bearing soundtrack, limited character connections and poor pacing makes Mat Damon’s newest venture a dull, misadventure.  Having loved District9, another film from director/writer Neill Blomkamp, I hoped for better. I… Continue reading Review: ELYSIUM

Review: WE’RE THE MILLERS

By Mark Saldana  Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) Take a zany family road trip movie like National Lampoon’s Vacation, add some off-beat, uncomfortable and occasionally gross humor of the Farrelly brothers and you’ll have We’re the Millers. Actually for me, that isn’t such a bad thing. Despite the fact that the usual formula of family… Continue reading Review: WE’RE THE MILLERS
