I’ve seen the title of Judy Moody and the NOT Bummer Summer a lot more than I’ve seen anything about the movie. While the title has appeared on upcoming movie lists, the marketing for the movie has been virtually absent. Aside from seeing at trailer a few weeks ago in front of Kung Fu Panda 2 (which hasn’t exactly been selling tickets like expected), I haven’t seen anything... 

Never let it be said the fans don’t help define Widescreen Warrior. I had every intent of seeing Hall Pass this weekend. My wife and I sat down and figured out how we’d fit in my movie time this weekend. I looked back over what I said about The Freebie as a point of comparison. I wasn’t excited about Hall Pass, but I was willing to see it. As the week drove on, and the flu-bug that... 

I can’t even begin to go into the reasons I don’t want to see this movie. Thankfully, I’m not in the target audience of this release, which pairs together archive footage of the sixteen-year-old pop star’s life (has he really had that much to archive in sixteen years??) with 3-D concert footage. This is intended for the teenage crowd (and cougar mothers) that flock to see his... 

Just in time for Valentine’s Day is the latest romantic comedy to pair together (insert star’s name here) and (insert other star’s name here). Obviously with such a (perfect / mismatched / bizarre) couple, the movie is trying to draw you in with its casting, since the premise feels a little (weak / overdone / outlandish). Still, it could be good if you approach it with the right mindset,... 

If it was any other week, The Next Three Days might have had a chance. The thriller, which stars Russell Crowe as a man whose life gets turned upside-down after his wife is accused of murder, certainly has a high enough pedigree: Crowe, writer/director Paul Haggis (Crash), and Elizabeth Banks (W), among others. But up against the phenomenon that is Harry Potter, well, this movie just didn’t have... 

I mentioned on the podcast last week that I still haven’t managed to get into the Resident Evil movies. Despite being a fan of the video games that inspired the movies, none of the films have drawn me in or encouraged me to put them in my DVD player. I added the first two pictures to my Netflix queue before the third movie hit theaters, and I still haven’t watched them. Thus, things don’t... 

I was on the fence about M. Night Shyamalan’s latest film, The Last Airbender. The director hasn’t exactly made good decisions for the last couple of years, and the movie is based on an animated franchise I have no interest in. Still, I was trying to be excited about the director heading in a new direction, taking on something other than his now-cliché twist endings. The first round of reviews... 

We’ve never been much of the Twilight kind around here, and from the response we get from our regular readers, neither are most of you. A few of you might be interested in the latest chapter, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, which is the big Fourth of July release this week, but for the most part, our regular readers are steering away from the film. A lot of buzz is being thrown out about the movie, and... 

It’s another snowy weekend in Virginia. Let’s be honest though: that’s not the reason why we’re not seeing Dear John. My wife, who has suddenly identified Channing Tatum and understands why girls go ga-ga over him, said she’d rather have her eyes ripped out then sit through a Nicholas Sparks adaptation. Let me clarify: this is a romance movie that happens to be coming... 

Saying nobody on the staff here is interested in The Tooth Fairy, the latest pairing of Walt Disney and Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson, is an understatement. Here’s how disinterested in the movie everyone here is. Not only did nobody sign up to review the movie willingly, but the podcast staff turned down the opportunity to go see the movie as a collective. Well, one member in particular...
