WPR First Look Movies: Lauren Kate’s Fallen

Fans of Lauren Kate’s Fallen series have been waiting for this since the release of the bestselling novel in 2009 and here it is, the first image from the upcoming film. Addison Timlin looks like she stepped off the cover of the novel in that dress. She plays Lucinda Price, a 17-year-old girl sent to […]

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a complex and satiating adventure.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a complex and satiating adventure.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is, in my opinion, the best of the Spider-Man movies, and one of the best superhero films so far.  They break away from what could be argued as the standard structure for a superhero film as much as possible.  It is going to be a definite challenger to Captain America in […]

Karen Gillan is Visceral in Oculus

Karen Gillan is Visceral in Oculus

uneasy all night, and has me staring at my apples suspiciously all day.  Overall, it is a mixed bag of good and bad but I still find it to be an enjoyable film.  As far as horror films go, far too many rely on cheap tricks and startle tactics.  While there is no shortage of […]

Oculus: My Sci-fi Favorites Get Gory

Oculus: My Sci-fi Favorites Get Gory

The horror thriller, Oculus, is out on April 11th and depending upon your level of horror consumption and susceptibility, you might never want to look at antique mirror again. Oculus didn’t do it for me unfortunately. I just want to preface this review with that—I am a hard sell with horror. But, Oculus cast two […]

Draft Day is commercial yet satisfying.

Draft Day is commercial yet satisfying.

I did not want to see Draft Day. I am not interested in sports in the slightest, so a film about the NFL Draft was unappealing. The main reason I had for wanting to skip this one is my desire to be objective. If a film subject matter is one I feel I couldn’t be […]

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is Staggeringly Satisfying

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is Staggeringly Satisfying

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is not simply a good Marvel movie, it is not just a great superhero movie, and it is not only a spectacular action movie.  It is all of the above, and one of the best multi-genre films I have yet see.   To quantify my feelings here, let me start by […]

The Grand Budapest Hotel is a Five Star Establishment of The Highest Order

It really is a divine pleasure to witness a delightfully enchanting film ,such as The Grand Budapest Hotel, that I fear I may fail to convey its charm for lack of words.  Honestly I do hope I shant fail in my endeavor, however if I happen to slip into the pit of failure know that […]

Muppets Most Wanted might be the next Muppets movie since the last

Muppets Most Wanted might be the next Muppets movie since the last

Muppets Most Wanted is not quite as much fun as a room full of ferrets playing Twister, but it is close.  If you have never experienced ferrets playing Twister, then Muppets Most Wanted will be a standard unit of measurement for cinematic fun.  The film itself harkens back to the days of self-deprecating Muppet glory, with relentlessly […]

My Angst Gland is Divergent and My Ears Hurt.

My Angst Gland is Divergent and My Ears Hurt.

Imagine if you will a late 1997-television teen-soap opera set in a post war dystopian society, written by Ayn Rand. That is how I would describe Divergent, except it isn’t that good. If this had been produced for television, there would be time to develop characters, and explain this new caste system before the breakneck […]

Aaron Paul plays down his Need For Speed

Aaron Paul plays down his Need For Speed

Need For Speed is big dumb, expensive, fun, if you are inclined to enjoy watching cars drive fast, recklessly, and crash sometimes, this would be your film.  Surprising as it may sound, it also had a fair story, and some pretty entertaining dialogue.  Enough so that I, not a car or racing enthusiast, found Need […]
