FlixChatter Review: Robin Hood (2010)

In my weekend roundup post, I've alluded to the fact that this version of Robin Hood is a bit Gladiator-ized, and it’s as though Scott aimed the theme to be ‘The Outlaw that defied a Kingdom.’ It's been rumored that this movie allowed Russell and Ridley to work on a pseudo sequel to the award …

Iron Man 2 Review & Highlights from the Movie

Two years ago, when the trailer of Iron Man first came out, I thought it was just ridiculous and juvenile that I had no interest in seeing it. Not sure why I ended up seeing it but let's just say I absolutely loved it. It was such a fun and enjoyable flick from start to …

They both also share a similar fairy-tale element in …

Everyone’s a Critic: Reviews from FC readers (6th Edition)

This edition's of Everyone's a Critic's series happen to be movies that exceeds the reviewers' expectation. In fact, Mike was practically baffled why Remember Me had gotten such terrible reviews – which at 28% is exactly the same Tomatometer as Twilight Saga: New Moon. He thought that this indie drama definitely has much more depth …
