Print John Nolte Follow Read Full Bio 'Brave' Bluray Review: Kids Will Love It, Adults Not So Much Politically correct critics crybabied for a Pixar film with a female protagonist and with "Brave" they finally have one. What the rest of us got, though, is a pretty weak entry in the Pixar canon; an original fairy tale sure to delight the kids while leaving adults out in the cold. We've pretty much seen it all before. Like the rest of us, these politically correct crybaby critics deserved better. 10 Nov 2012 'Sunset Boulevard' Bluray Review: Billy Wilder's Brilliant Cautionary Tale Believe it or not, unlike what we see so much of today, there was a time when Hollywood made films about Hollywood that didn't wallow in narcissism or attempt to fool us into believing a real heart beats behind all of that "moral" depravity. Director, co-writer Billy Wilder's "Sunset Boulevard" doesn't exactly bite the hand of an industry that made him a wealthy prince, but his cautionary tale is stripped completely of any of the romanticism or sentiment in showing us the dark underbelly of Tinseltown. 10 Nov 2012 Bluray Reviews: 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter,' 'Dark Shadows,' 'Chernobyl Diaries,' More...

For fans like myself who want to lose themselves in Hitchcock's career as much as the films themselves, this collection is a dream come true. 9 Nov 2012 The Polls Were Right, We Were Wrong, and That's the Good News And that's the bad news; not that we were wrong, but that what seemed inconceivable isn't: the 2008 electorate wasn't an anomaly. The electorate (at least with a Democrat presidential candidate at the top of the ticket) has shifted. That doesn’t mean our ideas are wrong or that the GOP must change its core convictions. But it does mean that tactically we have to wrap our heads around the fact that Democrats have the ability to summon enough voters required to eke out victory. 8 Nov 2012 Barack Obama Wins a Second Term 6 Nov 2012 Republican Senate Pick Up: Fischer Beats Kerrey In Nebraska 6 Nov 2012 Romney Wins North Carolina 6 Nov 2012 Republican George Allen Defeated in Virginia 6 Nov 2012 Republican Todd Akin Defeated In Missouri 6 Nov 2012 Previous 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 Next
