Question of the Week: What’s your favorite White House movie scene?

I'm set for an advanced screening of the white house actioner Olympus Has Fallen tomorrow. Surely you've seen the pretty aggressive promos of that one all over the place. Interestingly enough, the marketing for the movie has been putting the White House itself as the main STAR of the film. I mean there are some …

A Birthday Tribute: Top Five Christopher Reeve’s Roles

The New York-born actor passed away eight years ago of heart failure. He would've been 60 years old today. Hearing the Superman theme the other day I suddenly thought of the man behind that heroic role. My admiration for Christopher Reeve went as far back as 1978 when I was only a wee girl. It's …

The Flix List: Top Ten Favorite Seasoned Actors

In an industry seemingly obsessed with youth, the world of cinema is actually quite forgiving to those suffering from the inevitable phenomenon called aging.

I thought that even if …

Seems like this is an endless recurring theme, but it's not like Hollywood to pump out a working formula until there's nothing left. But with a cast …

Flixchatter Review: Invictus

On the plane ride back home, I wasn't able to fall asleep right away. So what's better than catching up on flicks I've missed and Invictus is one I had been wanting to see (I wrote a post on it back in October). The Clint Eastwood-directed flick tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson …

DVD Pick: Maiden Heist

My friends and I saw this movie on Halloween night. Since nobody's keen on watching a horror flick, we stumbled upon this one as we're browsing the Redbox site. The biggest draws were the main actors: Christopher Walken, Morgan Freeman and William H. Macy. You'd think that with names like those it'd be a dark …
