It’s time to head back to Paradise Massachusetts (read as Nova Scotia) again. Picking up shortly after the last film ended, Robert B Parker’s creation Jesse Stone (Tom Selleck) is still on the outs with the town council, and suspended from his position as Chief. In fact, the force is down to two members for…

The Newsroom S01 E06 – Bullies
This week, Will McAvoy (Jeff Daniels) and company face the very real threat of a death threat against Will’s life on Aaron Sorkin’s brilliant drama The Newsroom. This week’s episode takes place in a 48-hour period from April 11 to the 12 of 2011. After reading some of their website’s comments online, Will is infuriated,…
Continuum S01 E09 – Family Time
This week the story hits home for young Alec (Eric Knudsen) as a hostage situation erupts on his farm with his family, Kiera (Rachel Nichols) and Carlos (Victor Webster) smack dab in the middle of it. And before I go any further, let me just get this out of the way… Kiera looks so hot…
Cannibal Holocaust (1980)
Hailed as the film banned in the most countries, Cannibal Holocaust is not for the meek. It usually takes a lot to offend or bother me, and this one did. So be warned, if you decide to settle in for this one – you shouldn’t watch this during dinner, and it’s very visual in it’s…
Firefox (1982)
I’m not a fan of remakes, but if there was one that I would get behind, it would be Firefox. Directed by Clint Eastwood, this was one of the first grown-up movies I got to see on my own. For that there will always be a happy memory of this movie in my head, I…
Jesse Stone: Thin Ice (2009)
It is time to head back to Paradise, Massachusetts. This time around, Robert B. Parker’s creation of Police Chief Jesse Stone (Tom Selleck) is involved in an investigation that is not based on the series of Jesse Stone novels. That is something that sounds like it’s putting the series on Thin Ice as they stray…
Star Trek: The Next Generation S1 – Blu-Ray
One word and one word only to describe the blu-ray release of Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 1… Wow. I’ve been with Next Gen since the beginning, I was a huge Trek fan before it, and I was clamoring for more and more and more. I ate up every little bit of the new…
The Newsroom S01 E05 – Amen
This week’s ep runs from February 10th to the 14thof 2011 and Will McAvoy (Jeff Daniels) and his team take on a number of issues both on-air and off. On-air, their own Elliot Hirsch (David Harbour) is broadcasting from Cairo about the apparent revolution going on there. But he can’t get out onto the streets,…
Continuum S01 E08 – Game Time
Now this is what I’m talking about! Continuum finds it’s feet again in what, for me, is the best episode since Episode 05 A Test of Time. We open in the 2070s, where CPS Protector Kiera Cameron (Rachel Nichols) is apparently pulling some kind of guard duty at Sautech for a demonstration. A demonstration that…
The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
I’m sorry Mr. Nolan, but for me, The Dark Knight Rises is a bit of a fumble. It’s by no means a terrible film, and for a running time of 2 hours and 45 minutes it tends to move pretty well. The film doesn’t suffer from faults in its pacing or editing, I just felt…
