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.

Recap: The Real Housewives of New York, Scrotum Waxing Edition

It’s not often that I have to begin my blog with the teaser for next week but this time I don’t have a choice. Aviva’s dad is back on “Real Housewives of New York” and he’s in rare form. “Ramona is a bitch and you know what happens to bitches,” George declares. Well, he’s not

40 Day of Silence Review

A minimalist investigation into Turkish women bearing the sins of the world. Screened at the 40th Seattle International Film Festival, Saodat Ismailova’s “Chilla” came as a surprise to an audience expecting the Indian crime thriller “Monsoon Shootout.” As the SIFF staff pointed out, “this is no Monsoon Shootout.” Indeed, Ismailov’s movie probably produces more lasting

Stand Clear of the Closing doors Review

A fantastic and supremely realistic journey into the underworld of the subway and the nether world of the illegal alien. Emerging Director Sam Fleischner is able to put his dozen-plus lenser creds to good use in this surrealistic yet grounded narrative of a boy lost in the New York subways. Winner of a Special Jury
