I’m gonna let you in on a little secret: Superman is lame. There, I said it, and now I’ll probably have to run and hide inside some bunker until the geek rage dies. And it’s strange, because I’m also a geek. A geek that loves comics and computer games, …

This is a remake of the 1949 classic titled “The Heiress,” starring Olivia de Havilland. While the original is hard to beat, the remake is actually not too bad. Of course, there are some rather questionable additions and a definite feminist touch, but what else can you expect from …

Ant-Man was possibly the only Marvel movie that caught me off-guard because I didn’t remember hearing of the superhero until after I saw the movie trailer, and because I wasn’t sure how seriously I could take one that had shrinking to the size of an ant as a superpower. However, …

I saw this movie, and you have got to believe this I was in some kind of hallucination or translation while I was watching it. The movie really pulled me into it and I was almost like lost in it. It was as if you have entered some kind …
