Movie Review: Black Swan
Once upon a time, yours truly had an insatiable crush on one Natalie Portman. I found the tempered violence crafted by Luc Besson in The Professional (1994) to be utterly ridiculous without the extremely sincere performances of Jean Reno, Gary Oldman and this 13 year old little girl who had an on-camera presence well beyond…

The last film production that pulled this two-part-film-gag was Quinton Tarantino’s Kill Bill Parts 1 and 2. The main difference between Bill and Harry is…

Movie Review: Skyline
Please, Don’t Look Up A Film Review of Skyline By: Lawrence Napoli When I first saw the trailer for Skyline I assumed it represented the remnants of an impromptu ID4 (1996) sequel which Will Smith subsequently jettisoned for lacking vision, thus terminating all hope for that franchise to develop into at least a trilogy.
