		Rev. Ron reviews "The Thief and the Cobbler" There's never been an animated movie like The Thief and the Cobbler. The film began its production in 1964 and ultimately became creator Richard Williams' sole reason for living--just like how extreme self-loathing and lost Spanish treasure is my sole reason for living. He dreamed of creating the... Posted by Rev.Ron_MovieReviews at 5:09 p.m. | Talkbacks Category: Movies & TV

		Rev. Ron reviews "Six Degrees of Separation" I've never seen this film until my girlfriend informed me of its existence (that being said, I was even less aware that it was a play first written by John Guare) and it stars Will Smith in one of his early roles when he was still the Fresh Prince forcefully sent to Bel-Air to learn the error of ...

		Rev. Ron reviews "Dark Skies" When is Hollywood going to make an alien film that focuses entirely on them abducting hillbillies, anally probing them and then releasing them back on the world where they can entertain us with their stories? Or one where dudes with freaky haircuts that they clearly did themselves talk about how ... Posted by Rev.Ron_MovieReviews at 8:47 p.m. | Talkbacks Category: Movies & TV

		Rev. Ron reviews "Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D." I've never been a big fan of the character of Nick Fury-that is, to say, I've never been a fan of him until the Ultimates series came out and Nick Fury went from a generic gruff white old dude in white gloves and a white belt to a bad-ass drawn to look like Samuel L. Jackson. Old Nick Fury always... Posted by Rev.Ron_MovieReviews at 6:00 p.m. | Talkbacks Category: Movies & TV

		Rev. Ron reviews "Dr. Strange (1978)" Dr. Strange is one of those Marvel properties that seems to be able to make a decent movie all by itself-meaning, the comic character could possibly, and even literally, yank himself free of the pages and direct and star in his own film. The character is interesting and it involves magic and myst... Posted by Rev.Ron_MovieReviews at 5:55 p.m. | Talkbacks Category: Movies & TV

		Rev. Ron reviews "The Punisher (1989)" You would think it would be easy to make a Punisher film. Frank Castle's back story is filled with trauma and drama (hey, that rhymes!) and the rest of it is just him seeking revenge with his only rule being kill those bleepers in such a way that the very concept of "extreme prejudice" ...

		Rev. Ron reviews "The Last Stand" When I first saw the trailer for this film, I thought it was composed of deleted scenes and/or abandoned script ideas for an Expendables movie. The gist I got from the trailer was that Arnold Schwarzenegger is too old for this stuff but, despite his age, arthritic knees and bad back, he could sti...

		Rev. Ron reviews "Stand Up Guys" Let's not waste time arguing whether or not Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin are great actors or not because we all know they are (and if we did argue, it would just be embarrassing for the both of us). Sure they have done their fair share of crappy films but how can one argue with Ar... Posted by Rev.Ron_MovieReviews at 12:43 p.m. | Talkbacks Category: Movies & TV

		Rev. Ron reviews "The Woman in Black" Is it possible to make an entire horror film with only two horror flick clichés? The Woman in Black proves you can.Daniel Radcliffe is Arthur Kipps, a widowed lawyer in London who is given one last chance with his job when he is sent to a small, "out on yonder" village, specifica...

		Rev. Ron reviews "Shakes the Clown" This was my first time seeing this 1991 comedy from comedian Bobcat Goldthwait. A friend of mine and a fan of my reviews (yes, believe it or not, people enjoy my reviews-I pay them good money to like them) asked me to give this one a shot. I will ALWAYS take a request for the blog (then he offere... Posted by Rev.Ron_MovieReviews at 7:03 p.m. | Talkbacks Category: Movies & TV
