Jersey Boy, Clint Eastwood’s rousing, sexy and deliciously nostalgic film about sixties’ pop idols The Four Seasons. It tells the story of their rise to fame in the late fifties to become the top group of the pre-Beatles era.

Recap: Real Housewives of New York, Sonja is a modern day Blanche DuBois Edition

More personal waxing on “Real Housewives of New York?” For real. Please? The entire Real Housewives franchise needs to stop the group feminine hygiene. I’m dead serious. Kristen holding Carole’s hand through a Brazilian – while her legs are up in the air so they can reach all the secret places??? TMI ladies. C’mon girls.

The Yes Men Are Revolting Review

Then, again, so are many corporations. When Yes Men Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno launched their “Survivaballs” into New York’s East River to protest the lack of an effective United Nations climate change policy, they were not surprised when legal action ensued (“Yes, just stay to the left of the machine gun…”). In fact, they

Recap: Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars, Where’s It All Going Edition

I think the biggest issue to come to a head at “Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars” on WEtv is that these reality television “celebrities” don’t truly want to talk about the REAL issues plaguing their marriages on camera. Say what? They signed up for a reality television show to fix their relationships (not all of

Recap: Real Housewives of New York, the Vulgarity at My Lunch Edition

Oh Aviva, what were you thinking picking a fight with LuAnn? The Countess will eat you up and spit you out so fast it will make our heads spin watching. That pathetic ploy for friendship by showing her daughter’s work at your private party did not make up for the social gaff you committed at

Recap: Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars: Breakfast Vodka Edition

“This is what you call a breakfast vodka,” Traci Braxton knows how to set up the opening to an episode, but this new crew isn’t the drinking bunch of last season’s “Marriage Boot Camp” on WEtv, and she and Kevin are the only two who seem to really be drinking dawn til dusk. At least

Recap: Real Housewives of New York City, The Ramona’s Gotta Go Edition

It’s hard to know where to start in my recap of this week’s “Real Housewives of New York” because there was stupidity and tackiness going down left and right all over the place! In brief, Ramona’s an ignorant bitch, Sonja’s a slutty drunk, and Aviva’s father George is still a dirty pervert that grosses everybody

Recap: WEtv ‘Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars’ I Am Not An Alcoholic Edition

I was seriously skeptical about the new WEtv “Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars” from the very first promo. After all, two of the featured celeb couples aren’t even married, and we know JWoww was preggers when it was being filmed so she wasn’t going to be her usual entertaining, inebriated self. But that doesn’t mean

3 Days to Kill Blu-ray Review

3 Days to Kill manages to have some decent action sequences and a few laughs, but the film is a misfire for Kevin Costner and director McG. Written by Luc Besson and Adi Hasak, the film sees Costner joined by a talented cast including Amber Heard, Hailee Steinfeld, Connie Nielsen, Richard Sammel, and Eriq Ebouaney.
