Film Reviews

Yes, I realize The Amazing Spider-Man 2 opens today, but I am on a tropical beach with no cinema so instead let's talk about Johnny Depp.

The old saying is there's a lot of leeway in a three-way but even that gets tested in The Other Woman , which opens Friday at the Whistler Village 8.

Here's the good news: Whistler's film scene still has the biggest ball sack.

In the summer, movie fans get big action movies with lots of explosion and as much sex as the studios can slide in under a PG rating. In early winter, we get the gripping dramas and awards contenders. In January/February it's mostly crap.

First up, big new for my girls Hot Kel and Amy — Magic Mike XXL is slated to start shooting this fall. That's right, ladies, more Channing Tatum strip show action should be coming down the pipe sometime in 2015.

I only know a couple of stories from the Bible, one has a talking snake and some (almost) full-frontal nudity and the other is about a dude who builds a giant boat and fills it with two of every animal on the planet, but hardly any people.

When it comes to consistently filling movie theatres, teenage kids are a massive market — kids can move movies into the billion-dollar profit range.

In 1988, Spectacular Spider-Man #136 hit the creaky metal comic book rack at the Whistler Grocery Store. I bought it and still have it, because of the cover.

One thing worth celebrating this week is that Spike Jonze has finally won an Oscar.

Dust of your tux and have the butler bring out the Bentley, here comes the biggest night in Hollywood —The Oscars are Sunday March 2.
