Before we get to this week, a few holdovers:
Anders Wright and Diana Saenger on Steven Soderbergh’s Side Effects.
Now, on to the good stuff.
A Good Day to Die Hard
Brian Lafferty – East County Magazine
“I suppose it was only a matter of time before someone derailed the franchise.”
Ian Forbes – Sobering Conclusion
“Seriously, if you have any desire at all to see A Good Day to Die Hard, I want you to stop, take out $20 from your wallet, and toss it in a fire.”
David Pinson – CinemaStance
“More Bond Knockoff than Bruce Vehicle.”
Alison Gang – U-T San Diego
Safe Haven
Diana Saenger – Review Express
“A great date movie with action and intrigue that might entertain guys as well as the ladies.”
Ian Forbes – Sobering Conclusion
“… if I can sit through this somewhat comfortably, it should mean the Sparks’ fan club should feel right at home here.”
Josh Board – Fox 5 San Diego
Review.
Beautiful Creatures
Ian Forbes – Sobering Conclusion
“I kind of liked Beautiful Creatures. (Please, stop the snickering. It’s rude.)”
David Pinson – CinemaStance
“Simple: Better than Twilight, Not as good as The Hunger Games.”
Alison Gang – U-T San Diego
“A clumsy mess of supernatural hooey…”
Check out Alison’s interview with the stars.
Brian Lafferty – East County Magazine
“To say Beautiful Creatures has the fingernails on the blackboard effect would be an insult to both fingernails and blackboards.”
Josh Board – Fox 5 San Diego
Review.
John Dies at the End
Brian Lafferty – East County Magazine
“Flooded with bizarre images and dark offbeat humor.”
Anders Wright has an interview with Paul Giamatti and Don Coscarelli about John Dies at the End.
