Movie and DVD reviews

Tangled – Disney’s valiant attempt at post-feminist storytelling

At its core, Disney seems to consider itself a profit-making enterprise, of course, but also a force of “wholesome” entertainment — whatever that truly means.

Dylan Dog – Your average vampire meets werewolf meets zombie movie

With such an onslaught of contemporary monster stories out there in pop culture, “Dylan Dog: Dead of Night” isn’t exactly groundbreaking, even if the comic it’s based on was unique for its time.

Thor takes a backseat to the supporting cast

Guest clacker Daniel “Mini” Meier chimes in from England to review the latest member of The Avengers to make it to the big screen, with Paramount’s ‘Thor.’

Fast Five another engaging high-speed drive

When it comes to movies, none give me an adrenaline rush like those in the ‘Fast and the Furious’ series. I left 2009’s ‘Fast & Furious’ already impatient for ‘Fast Five’. I’m happy to report that ‘Fast Five’ was worth the wait.

Eat, Pray, Love is NOT a chick flick – Chick Clack

Director Cary Fukunaga balances it all in ‘Jane Eyre’.
