I picked up The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb because it was cheap ($6.44) and because it looked somewhat interesting, if a bit derivative. Derivative is right, this two-part mini-series steals liberally from both the Indiana Jones franchise as well as the Mummy series.
Does the Curse of King …

Little Women on DVD is not quite the same experience as reading the classic story. I love both versions though. The novel started in 1869, and there are just so much characters to view and enjoy with. The story revolves around a mother and 4 of …

The way this film is marketed is truly off-putting, who else wants to watch another alien-invasion movie? I find it truly distracting that “language” is one of the main themes here but the distributor actually did not know how to communicate/market this film to the general audience.

Rob Marshall turned a New York Times’ Bestseller into a Hollywood box office hit. I have to admit though, it’s not a film I would want to watch over and over again. It’s brilliant. Emotional. Deep. That said, it’s kind of depressing despite the ending. The entire film has …
