Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
|
"Through Abrams' beautiful use of Giacchino's epic film score, 35mm anamorphic lens flares, and his incredible detail in character, I found myself weeping nerd tears! See it in IMAX!"

Iron Man 3 (2013)
|
"The epic action brought nerd tears to my eyes! Shane Black delivers a witty, action-packed flick with great twists. See it in 2D as the 3D conversion lacks great depth!"

Cloud Atlas (2012)

"Cloud Atlas is masterful in concept but mediocre in execution. Three of the stories worked while the other three lacked the emotional depth required for a 3-hour flick!"

Lawless (2012)

"Lawless uses it's extreme bloody violence as a character to propel this riveting and emotional story forward. Hardy and Pearce deliver incredibly engaging performances!"

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

Savages (2012)

"Savages is a solid flick for the first two hours and four minutes. I'm still flabbergasted and scratching my head at the choice Oliver Stone made to end the film!"

The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)
|
"The Amazing Spider-Man succeeds as a great love story but ultimately fails as a super hero flick. Should you see the film in 2D? 3D? or 3D IMAX? Click for full review!"

Prometheus (2012)

Marvel's The Avengers (2012)

"Mark Ruffalo was born to the play The Hulk. There is a ten second epic action sequence that is worth the entire price of admission and every one of your nerd tears! Hulk Smash!"

Think Like a Man (2012)

"The product placement for Harvey's book is a blatant disregard for the audience's intelligence. I felt like I was watching a 3am "ShamWow" infomercial! "

The Hunger Games (2012)

"The Hunger Games completely transcends the teenage genre by presenting a film with a strong emotional core mixed with an epically bad-a** central character! I loved this movie!"

Act of Valor (2012)
|
"Through the use of active duty Navy SEALS, live ammo and helmet cameras, Act of Valor produces insanely realistic action. Just don't go in expecting good acting from the SEALS."

The Grey (2012)
