Rating: R Stars: Alice Eve, Shelley Hennig, Antonio Banderas, Paul Reid, Olwen Fouéré, Nick Dunning, Matthew Tompkins Writer: Charles Burnley Director: Jon Keeyes Distributor: Saban Films Release Date: January 19, 2024 CULT KILLER has a title that’s misleading, given that there isn’t a cult as such. It’s otherwise a decent if somewhat self-conscious detective thriller set in Ireland. The film begins with an onscreen quote from Genghis Khan about vengeance that is borne out by the ensuing action. We see business of several kinds taking place in an Irish pub. It is here that Cassie Holt (Alice Eve) first meets […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Benedict Cumberbatch, John Cho, Simon Pegg, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin, Peter Weller, Alice Eve Writers: Roberto Orci & Alex Kurtzman & Damon Lindelof, based on characters created by Gene Roddenberry Director: J.J. Abrams Distributor: Paramount Release Date: May 16, 2013 Giving any kind of plot summary of STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS runs more than the usual risk of spoilers. What can be said? Well, Captain Kirk (Chris Pine), Mr. Spock (Zachary Quinto) and the rest of the very dedicated crew of the Enterprise extricate themselves by the skin of their teeth […]Read On »

McNally, Oliver Jackson-Cohen Writers: Ben Livingston & Hannah Shakespeare Director: James McTeigue Distributor: Relativity Media Release Date: April 27, 2012  There is a staple of detective police series, where some unhinged reader/viewer stages crimes described in fiction and/or film, and the author – after being ruled out as a suspect – is brought in to help with the investigation. This has been done relatively recently on BONES and CASTLE (both shows with mystery writer protagonists), the SCREAM movies, the Dirty Harry movie THE DEAD POOL, et cetera. […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Brian Geraghty, Alice Eve, Josh Peck Writer: Chris Sparling, story by David Brooks & Chris Sparling Director: David Brooks Distributor: IFC Midnight Release Date: April 6, 2012 At the beginning of ATM, we have genuine curiosity about what we’re seeing. By the end of the movie, we get an explanation and realize that there was the potential for a good thriller here. However, what we get in the middle is one of those horror thrillers where the main characters behave in such counter-intuitive ways that we lose patience with them. It’s a freezing cold night as an […]Read On »
