Review: EARTH TO ECHO
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) If one has already seen E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, or the more recent Super 8, this latest entry in space alien/human child relationships will offer few surprises story-wise. I know that statement probably looks strange under a somewhat favorable rating of 3 stars, but I do have… Continue reading Review: EARTH TO ECHO
Review: BEGIN AGAIN
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) Any film that expresses a love for music and song has already scored some points with me. This particular film, which stars Mark Ruffalo as a washed-up record producer and Keira Knightley as one of his new discoveries, wears it love for music and lyrics on… Continue reading Review: BEGIN AGAIN
Review: TAMMY
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) After sitting through the abysmally bad Identity Thief and the lukewarm The Heat, I went into Tammy not expecting much, but hoping for a decent comedy. After some breakthrough performances by Melissa McCarthy in Bridesmaids and This is 40, I had become rather disappointed with the… Continue reading Review: TAMMY
Review: TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION
By Mark Saldana Rating: 2 (Out of 4 Stars) When director Michael Bay first announced that he would not return to direct another Transformers movie after Transformers: Dark of the Moon, many frustrated movie goers, including myself, breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Review: JERSEY BOYS
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) Feeling more like a standard music artists’ biopic and less like a musical, Clint Eastwood’s adaptation of the Tony Award winning and critically acclaimed Broadway musical seems to lack a vibrancy and energy that I expected. I have never actually seen a stage production of Jersey… Continue reading Review: JERSEY BOYS
Review: THINK LIKE A MAN TOO
By Mark Saldana Rating: 1.5 (Out of 4 Stars) With the first film, I remember liking the way screenwriters Kerry Merryman and David A. Newman incorporated elements of Steve Harvey’s book, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, into an otherwise cliché and formulaic romantic comedy. At least that film had that quality going… Continue reading Review: THINK LIKE A MAN TOO
