Top Five Bruce Willis Performances
With Red opening this weekend, Bruce Willis is once again proving that being a middle aged bad ass is possible. For over two decades Willis has also shown that by bringing a substantial amount of his off screen persona to his characters, he can create iconic performances that film fans hold dear to their hearts. The past few years he has hit some rough patches with some really bad films (Cop Out, Surrogates, 16 Blocks, The Whole Ten Yards), but this list will have none of that. The following is my personal top five performances by Bruce Willis. Read on… the number one may surprise you. Read the rest of this entry »
“The Night Chronicles” May Become “Unbreakable”
M. Night Shyamalan is producing a trilogy of horror films dubbed The Night Chronicles, with the first entry entitled Devil opening on September 17th. As one can imagine, seeing Shyamalan‘s name on a title card doesn’t inspire much hope of late, but I can not help but be intrigued by the proposed third film of the series. Why? Well, the film now has ties to the (never going to see the light of day) Unbreakable sequel.

M. Night Shyamalan returns with “The Last Airbender”
The world has not been kind to Mr. Shyamalan. Ever since the huge success of “The Sixth Sense” it seems Shyamalan has been unable to live of to his own hype in many people’s eyes. I personally love “Unbreakable,” “Signs,” and “The Village.” In fact, I always say “The Village” is the best episode of The Twilight Zone of all time. As for “Lady in the Water” and “The Happening”… well it’s hard to defend those. “Lady in the Water” is extremely self indulgent and “The Happening” is a gigantic laughable mess. So it is about time for the man to have a comeback and show the film going community that he is a very good filmmaker. Read the rest of this entry »
