Ah... the early 90s, when Branden Fraser was barely starting out, Pauly Shore was doing his thing, Sean Astin wasn't Samwise, and a cave man was weezing the juice at the corner store. What does that even mean?! Join us in visiting this 90s high school movie with a prehistoric twist! "Don't tax my gig so hardcore cruster."
Let's return to the early 90s when roller blading was the coolest thing you could do. A calm, cool, collected California boy is sent to the Midwest where he has to surf on his bed and try to impress the locals with his roller blading skills. "Listen bra, how about we talk this out over a basket of fries?" Join us for our review of Airborne!
We've seen him scared. Seen him save Christmas. Now let's see how he fares in High School! With the help of German scientists Ernest will gain the brains and confidence to save his school and his job... or will he Ernest things?! Oh yeah! And Sarah Chalke is there.
Did you think that E.T. ever needed to be reinterpreted? No? Well Mac and Me did it! Complete with Coca Cola, McDonalds, and a kid in a wheelchair that falls off a cliff side to his... not death! What are the MACs power set? And will they eventually drink all the Coca Cola in the world? Let's find out!
Hello Navigator. Where would you like to go? 8 years into the future?! To see all the superhero movies made up until then. COMPLIANCE! In this one, a little boy is taken into a future he's been missing, can Paul Reubens help him figure out what's going on or will the 80s government study him for the rest of life? Let's find out!
Remember Bastion from the NeverEnding Story? Well, he's back from Fantasia as the prefect child. So perfect his parents will use him to win little league games and complain that he's too reliable. With his friend Turtle, DARYL will learn how to be a kid and how to fly a stealth jet. Have you seen D.A.R.Y.L. before?
Ever had dreams of circuit boards that could take you into space?! Then you might have what it takes to be an Explorer... or a Dreamer? Not sure, we should ask Ethan Hawke. Joins us as we review another movie made by the iconic Gremlins Director, Joe Dante!
Why do we love Fridays? They mark the end of a work week. You can get some flat mozzarella sticks there. Fast food places give a away free fries (with a purchase of $1 or more). And they have a tendency to get freaky! Not that kind of freaky! But before they get freakier, let's go back to 2003 to watch little Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis swap bodies.
In the sky, is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It's a dog with a wonky ear! Oh, and Superman is there too. The time has finally arrived, has James Gunn redeemed Superman? Is the DCU ready for their own successful franchise? Before we talk about that, let's talk about what happened here.
Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to have John Travolta's face? How about Nicolas Cage's face?! In the peak of 90's action movies, John Woo takes us on a action packed journey with these two iconic actors. Face swaps, plane chase, speed boat chase, unnecessary flips and dives over furniture! Are you ready for this?
Remember that Fantastic Four movie that came out in the 90s? No? Huh! Me neither. Marvel went to great lengths to erase this movie from the world but the first family found a way to survive thanks to a bootleg copy and dedicated fans! Punch this one into your search engine and enjoy Dr. Doom clicking his gloves from scene to scene. Enjoy!
"Jacket on and jacket off" are back! And with a clever dialog exploitation the Miyaji and Han universes are now one! "Two Branches, One Tree." After our Karate Kid journey, it only made sense we review Karate Kid Legends. Get the popcorn out and let's Miyagi-Do This!
As we approach the One Year milestone, what better way to celebrate then by watching a movie of the same name? Year One, a late 2000s comedy that was riding the wave of raunchy comedies, Jack Black being Jack Black and Michael Cera being well... Michael Cera! Join us as we travel through some biblical locations with these out of place characters.
After all the Superman movies we watched, we couldn't move on without visiting the show that brought Superman to a new generation and showed that the kryptonian's story can be modernized, teen angst and all. How many times can we see Tom Welling get hit by a car? All the time! "Somebody saaaaave me!!"
On the eve of a new Superman film we're going back to 2013! 35 years after the first Superman film's release we have a new origin movie of Superman. With a new director who has a vision and color pallet that will drive fans crazy! Does this more human take on Superman resonate with you or would you crush him like you were General Zod? I will find him!
Superman Returns to Earth 5 years after finding out he might have gotten Lois Lane pregnant and wasn't ready to be a dad. Or least that's according to our own head canon. 19 years after Superman 4, the man of steel returns to the big screen with an almost whole new cast! Join us as we near the end of our Superman movie review journey.
Well gosh everyone, it's been such a swell journey so far. It's hard to say goodbye to Christopher Reeve and all the original cast of this series of films. Join us as we visit the final Reeve Superman film where he tries to rid the world of nuclear weapons because a very old sounding boy asks him to. He'll try to juggle two women and Lex Luther is back with some new tricks!
Superman 2's part-time director takes full helm of this Superman film. With a comedic legend. Wacky citizens. A winter getaway on a skyscraper. Fur floors. A fight with your evil self. A Cyborg cameo!? And Superman is in there somewhere. I think this one has the makings of the best Superman movie... (it doesn't.)
Little did we realize that studio meddling was happening with DC movies before the Snyderverse, Donner is fired and Lester takes over a nearly complete film. We take a look at both versions but one thing carries throughout, they kryptonians are kind of jerks! Kneel before Zod!
The superhero movie that began the superhero movie trend got off to an iconic start. The actors, the music, the story... the ending? Well it can't all be perfect. Join us as we visit "Krypten," the wheat fields of "Kansas," and the fast paced "Metropolis" with Superman! Will the movie make you believe a man can fly?
