Through DVD, I was able to revisit the film and ...
Highly Recommended The world of fantasy always had its doors slightly ajar for anyone who was curious enough to peek inside, but the genre was seemingly loaded with properties that were inaccessible to non-geeks. Yet, Harry Potter had to do little more than wave his wand with a flick of the wrist, and just like that, fantasy and magic were no longer the private domain of 'nerds' and 'dorks ...
Highly Recommended The Movie: Back when the book came out, I remember Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone setting off a publicity firestorm in terms of who would be cast into the significant roles for this hugely popular J.K. Rowling volume. The filmmakers that would be responsible for shaping Rowling's vision into cinematic form were scrutinized as well. For those involved with comic book ...

Highly Recommended The Movie: There's no questioning the success of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone ; aside from making the most money in the U.S. in 2001, its combined box office take was almost a billion dollars. To say that the second film ( Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets ) had some tough shoes to fill was an understatement, but the cast and crew wanted to strike while the iron ...

By Matt Brunson THE HANGOVER (2009). One of this past summer's biggest hits proved to be this headache-inducing effort in which soon-to-be-married Doug (Justin Bartha) heads to Las Vegas to enjoy a final blowout romp with henpecked Stu (Ed Helms), dimwitted Alan (Zach Galifianakis) and prickish Phil (Bradley Cooper). After waking up to discover that the husband-to-be is MIA, the trio stumble ...

We’ve been watching the extras on the new DVD of “ Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince ” and found out: • Author J.K. Rowling planned way beyond Book 7 and knows what happens to the children of surviving characters.

It wasn't Julia Roberts, Angelina Jolie or even Meryl Streep that was named the most profitable actress of the decade -- instead, 19-year-old British actress Emma Watson took the title.
Let’s get right into this. Is this a good movie? Absolutely. Is this a good movie for the book series? Absolutely NOT. While I respect screenwriters for having to take a 750-page book and convert it into a two and one half hour movie, this movie just doesn’t cut it. Many overlook that the fact that the movie changes and leaves out storylines from the book because they simply fill it in with ...
