For a moment, picture yourself out in the middle of nowhere. It could be out in the middle of the ocean, an endless field or a desert. You have no way to communicate with the rest of the world, the… Read More

Arrow Season 2 Episode 215 ‘The Promise’ Review and Recap 6 Qs

March 7, 2014

Well, here it was, the Arrow story of how two friends–brothers in arms–went to war with one another over the love of a girl. It had been teased and set up and alluded to, and finally, we got to see how it all shook out. ‘The Promise’… Read More

Agents of SHIELD Season 1 Episode 14 ‘T.A.H.I.T.I.’ Review and Recap 6 Qs

March 6, 2014

The long break really hurt Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD. After a successive run of great episodes, the flow was broken. ‘T.A.H.I.T.I.’ was good, don’t get me wrong, but is really needed to back up ‘T.R.A.C.K.S.,’… Read More

Arrow Season 2 Episode 214 ‘Time of Death’ Review and Recap 6 Qs

February 28, 2014

This week’s new Arrow episode had some very high points and a few very low points. The comic book feel was captured well, as Arrow had to save a bus full of innocent people, shoot a trick arrow, and the entire team worked as a unit throughout.… Read More

Free Birds Blu-ray Review

Blu-ray Reviews Reviews

February 20, 2014

Free Birds takes a clever concept of talking turkeys trying to thwart Thanksgiving and injects it with cookie cutter characterizations and unnecessarily complicated time paradoxes. The final spread is a dish best served warm; cute at times, but can't elevate… Read More

Toukiden: Age of Demons Review: Monster Hunting, Only With Demons

Game Reviews Reviews

February 20, 2014

It's rare that a game will come out and literally take an entire region by storm. A game that brings people--even complete strangers--together. A game that literally saved a fledging hand-held game system, and created a whole new sub-genre of… Read More

Arrow Season 2 Episode 213 ‘Heir to the Demon’ Review and Recap 6 Qs

February 6, 2014

Arrow’s latest was an anticipated episode that delivered, but didn’t quite knock me out. Nyssa al Ghul is a great character that I hope to see more (much more) of, and Oliver Queen’s world just got shook up more than even he… Read More

Agents of SHIELD Season 1 Episode 13 ‘T.R.A.C.K.S.’ Review and Recap 6 Qs

February 5, 2014

After the last episode preceding a short hiatus, I asked if Agents of SHIELD had turned a corner with the series and was past all the stupid, insipid episodes and on to bigger and better things. This week, they answered with arguably one of the… Read More

Rush Blu-ray Review

Blu-ray Reviews Reviews

February 1, 2014

"25 drivers start every season in Formula One, and each year, two of us die. What kind of person does a job like this? Not normal men, for sure. Rebels, lunatics, dreamers... people who are desperate to make a mark… Read More
