Not a bad movie. Jon Favreau was the best actor, followed by Mary Stuart Masterson. Not a very happy picture though…

Synopsis is wrong, mixed up with lords of dogtown. This is a good documentary about the birth of extreme skateboarding…

If you like skateboarding and the history of skateboarding, you could find this movie to be a tad interesting…

This needs to be fixed. The directors and cast listings are from two different movies…

Review of 2047: Sights of Death (2014)

By Larry Y (343) on 21 Sep 2015

In a world - populated by reverse zombies, who will instantly die from torso wounds, but remain completely unaffected by multiple headshots…

Review of Day of the Warrior (1996)

By Larry Y (343) on 10 Nov 2015

Fun bad... plus the bad guy is a dude who begged me for twenty bucks to take a photo with him…

Review of Gigli (2003)

By Larry Y (343) on 19 Jan 2017

Don't bother. It's not so bad it's good bad. It's just bad (and a little offensive)…

Review of Phantom of Chinatown (1940)

By Larry Y (343) on 09 Mar 2017

Interesting in that this is only time an Asian detective is actually portrayed by an Asian actor. Prequel to the Karloff Wong films…

Review of Stranger in the House (1967)

By Larry Y (343) on 19 Nov 2016

Marginally funny, but didn't really feel like a Kevin Smith film (probably because he didn't write it)…

Review of The Last Witch Hunter (2015)

By Larry Y (343) on 19 Nov 2015

Okay, but reminds me of every '80s/'90s horror comic…

Review of Hardbodies (1984)

By Larry Y (343) on 27 Sep 2016

3 middle aged men rent a beach house and hire a young stud to teach them how to dialogue local hardbodies…

Review of Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice (1992)

By Larry Y (343) on 26 Nov 2016

Adding based on Joe Bob Briggs' recommendation…

Review of Child's Play 2 (1990)

By Larry Y (343) on 26 Sep 2016

The effects still hold up, but it's gotten to the point where it stops making sense…

Review of Sex and the City 2 (2010)

By Larry Y (343) on 16 Jan 2017

A few minutes of Alice Eve is the only good part of this movie…
