I’m jazzed about this flick. How could it not at least be a lot of fun? Travolts owns as Chili Palmer, The Rock makes for a great gay bouncer, Vince Vaughn fills out a pimp suit well, and Danny DeVito, Uma Thurman, and Harvey Keitel all add sauce to the sauce. Plus, it’s an Elmore … Continue reading
The remake of John Carpenter’s Assault on Precinct 13 opens with a jittery, wired undercover sting gone wrong. Ethan Hawke, all too convincing as a junkie, is leading two cops in an effort to take out some Serbian mobsters, but it all goes to hell, as your average pre-credits sequence sting will do, and Hawke … Continue reading

These are a lot of fun to do … Continue reading

While presenting at the Critics’ Choice Awards earlier this week, David Duchovny stated that he’d recently spoken to the show’s creator Chris Carter … Continue reading
