Case 39 Movie (2009)

Typically, when you get a movie that stars a professional wrestler, you can expect something that is going to go out of its way to show off his muscles, put him in plenty of fight scenes and fill in the background with as many explosions as possible.

Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah
Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah is a fun movie to watch, but it’s not nearly as good as the previous movie, Godzilla vs. Biollante. This movie isn’t as dark as the previous two and actually features some campy scenes that are a bit reminiscent of the 1960s and 1970s movies. …

Film Bedknobs and Broomsticks
Living in the shadow of its critically accalimed sibling Mary Poppins, Disney’s Bedknobs and Broomsticks has often gotten a pretty unfair deal. Critics have been apt to compare it unfavorably to Mary Poppins, citing that it is unable to conjure the same magic even though it concerns an apprentice …

The Omnimax Theater
Although I feel you might be able to add “four dimensional” components such as motion and interaction with live objects simultaneous with the viewing of the film, the Omnimax provides what I consider the bets visual and audio experience possible.
I’ll get the sound out of the way because it …
