REVIEW: For Gamers Brenner, Wonder Kid, Fireblaster & Chewie Need Cheat Codes Instead of Light Cannons to Make Pixels Worthwhile

Posted by James Brown on Sunday, July 26, 2015, In : 0.12% Hard Liquor

Pixels

Directed By: Chris Columbus

Starring: Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Michelle Monaghan, Peter Dinklage, Josh Gad, Brian Cox, Ashley Benson, and Jane Krakowski

I've really come to despise Adam Sandler movies in recent years. For some strange reason, however, I held out hope for Pixels. After all, its premise is more than just Sandler waltzing around screen giving American cinema a bad name. Pixels is about the characters that laid the foundation of the gaming world we know and love today. ...

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2

Directed By: Andy Fickman

Starring: Kevin James, Neal McDonough, Daniella Alonso, David Henrie, Raini Rodriguez, Loni Love, and Geovanni Gopradi

I've been starting to think that I've been getting softer as a movie critic. I've been giving fewer wasted ratings. I've not had any recent urges to walk out of movies.

Grown Ups 2

Directed By: Dennis Dugan

Starring: Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade, Salma Hayek, Maya Rudolph, Maria Bello, and Nick Swardson

The Burpsnart. What in the blue hell has gone wrong with the 2013 summer movie season, and why has this idiotic concept creeped its way into what some deem entertainment? Let me explain. The Burpsnart is a three part act during which a middle-aged loser proceeds to burp, sneeze, and fart in very rapid succession. It was invented by Kevi...

REVIEW: Here Comes The Boom - The King Of Queens Takes On MMA To Show That Without Music Life Would Be A Mistake

Here Comes The Boom
SoberFilmChick

Directed by: Frank Coraci

Starring: Kevin James, Salma Hayek, Henry Winkler, Bas Rutten, Charice, Greg Germann

Well color me surprised. Here Comes the Boom was not completely horrible. Please hear me out before you revoke my critic’s badge. I had incredibly low expectations going into the film. While I like Kevin James, aside from the King of Queens and Hitch, he has been a part of one bad film after another. (I’m looking at you Zookeeper, Paul Blart: ...

Hotel Transylvania

Kids' Rating:

Adults' Rating:

Directed By: Genndy Tartakovsky

Starring: Adam Sandler, Selena Gomez, Andy Samberg, Kevin James, Fran Drescher, John Lovitz, Cee Lo Green, Steve Buscemi, Molly Shannon, and David Spade

Animated films have really taken a dark turn in recent weeks. While we had lighter films like The Lorax and Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted earlier in the year, we've now got studios bringing all kinds of monsters, ghouls, and witches to life for the kids. We...
