Film Review: ‘Jack Reacher: Never Go Back’!
Liz T., here…
As I watched the latest installment in the film versions of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher novels, I couldn’t help but chuckle at the irony. Never Go Back took on a new meaning. Many fans of the novels were appalled and aghast when Tom Cruise, a visual polar opposite, was cast for the lead role. The initial film was not a box office hit and many were disappointed. Watching Director Edward Zwick’s attempt at the second movie, it is apparent that mistakes in the conversion from novel to film are so extreme that, sadly, there is no going back.

‘Jack Reacher 2’ Is On Its Way!!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
Paramount is prepping a sequel to ‘Jack Reacher‘, the Tom Cruise action thriller that came out in 2012, that was based on the series of books. Since the first film only cost a mere $57 million, but grossed over $218 million, it was only a matter of time before we heard news of a sequel being made. The new film will be based off the book ‘Never Go Back‘, which was published this year.
Film Review: ‘Jack Reacher’!!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
I was pleasantly surprised with the film adaptation of Lee Child‘s novel series on the character ‘Jack Reacher‘. I was sorely let down by the film adaptation of ‘Alex Cross‘, and did not want another stinker like that. Well, when you have talent like Christopher McQuarrie and Tom Cruise, expect a strong script, great character development, and one hell of a fun thrill ride. ‘Jack Reacher‘ hits the mark in more ways than one.

Hi, Bryan Here…
“Six shots. Five dead. One heartland city thrown into a state of terror. But within hours the cops have it solved: a slam-dunk case. Except for one thing. The accused man says: You got the wrong guy. Then he says: Get Reacher for me. And sure enough, ex-military investigator Jack Reacher is coming. He knows this shooter-a trained military sniper who never should have missed a shot.”
AMC’s ‘Preacher’ Casts Jackie Earle Haley In Iconic Role!!!
Jackie Earle Haley Is Going To Be Showing Up Everywhere On Screen!!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
Jackie Earle Haley is a name you may not know off the top of your head, but I guarantee you’ll recognize his face. He’s been everywhere and he’s signing on to be more places even now! He was in ‘The Bad News Bears‘, the 1976 version with a cranky Walter Matthau, he was in ‘Watchmen‘, he even became a new generation’s Freddy Krueger in ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street‘.
New Stephen King Adaptation To Feature Samuel L. Jackson?!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
Director Josh Boone, from ‘The Fault In Our Stars‘ is diving into the deep end for his next project. This could mean a few things in the world of film-making, I could be talking about his announced writing/directing gig for ‘X-Men: The New Mutants‘, but I’m not. I’m talking about not one, but two Stephen King adaptations Boone is taking on, with one of them being ‘The Stand‘. Crawl before you run, young padawan. Anyhow, the other adaptation is what’s in the news today, Boone is looking to make King’s 2014 book ‘Revival‘ the current project getting his attention.
Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg Are Bringing Us ‘Preacher’!!
Hi, Bryan Here…
It’s official. after a decade or more of trying to get into a movie theater or on a network, Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon’s comic book series ‘Preacher‘ has received the green-light. The project will be written by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg with Sam Catlin (‘Breaking Bad‘) as executive producer and show-runner. ‘Preacher‘ will be on AMC.
‘Preacher’ is Headed To AMC, With Seth Rogen Producing?!?!?
Hi, Bryan Here….
I don’t want to believe any of this, because I’ve been hurt and burned so many times with this project, that I don’t think my mind, body, soul, and testicles can take it anymore. There have been countless attempts to adapt the comic book series ‘Preacher‘ by Garth Ennis for years now. We’ve even written about it on this site many times. Now, it seems that there is finally some steam and a new company wanting to develop this amazing and sadistic story. And that company is AMC.
Peter Jackson’s “The Hobbit” Is About To Get Underway!!! Just Check Out These Pre Production Photos!!!
Hi Bryan Here…
I can’t believe it has been more then ten years since Peter Jackson unleashed his vision of Lord of the Rings on the world. It has been a long and treacherous journey in getting this film, “The Hobbit” green-lit and made. At first director Guillermo DEl Toro was attached to direct and I would have loved to have seen his vision. But alas, the main maestro is behind the camera again to finish what he started a decade ago.

Film Review: ‘American Assassin’!
Dan M. here…
You can’t make an action movie like this in 2017 and expect anyone to be impressed with it. Not when studios crank out Bourne, Bond, John Wick, Atomic Blonde, The Raid, etc. Those are movies that execute things at such a high level with passable stories that at least allow you to buy into the character. Hell, even Jack Reacher had some self-awareness to it that made the shrug-worthy, ridiculous, sequel mildly enjoyable. American Assassin is an all-around pretty bad movie but it does have a few bright spots. It honestly felt like the writers watched a Bourne movie, then got high, and played 3 hours of Call of Duty on easy difficulty before putting pen to paper.
The Cabin in the Woods is Coming to 4K!
Hi everyone, Bryan here…
One of the finer horror/comedy movies to ever be released on the big screen is finally getting the 4K UHD treatment.

The 4K release will also come with the standard Blu-ray, as well as the Digital Copy, which will release on September 5th. Below is all the information you’ll need.
