Wanted Review: Get That Girl A Sandwich
Matt and Nat both got a kick out of Wanted, though it didn't quite live up to the expectations set by some of the rumours... or set by the first 10 minutes of the film. But it's a great ride that's definitely worth seeing -- if you've already seen Dark Knight that is. But if you hit the snack bar, make sure to bring back something for Angelina. She looks like she could use the meal. ~Matt + Nat

GOD OF WAR 3 REVIEW: Rage + Vengeance + Brutality...
We were both BLOWN AWAY by almost every aspect of God of War 3. A fitting end to the Kratos trilogy and an amazing mythological bookend, GOW3 also delivered an even slicker gameplay and possibly the greatest graphics in any game, ever. ~Matt+Nat

IRONMAN 2 PREVIEW: Exclusive Clips and Interviews
John Favreau, Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow are back for the follow-up to 2008's Ironman, and joining them are Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell, Mickey Rourke and Scarlett Johansson to bring Tony Stark face-to-face with at least one more iron man of his own design: War Machine!~Matt + Nat

A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET REVIEW: A New, New Nightmare?
Jackie Earle Haley dons Englund's signature fedora, claws and stylish Christmas sweater to terrorize the dreams of the sexy teenagers of Elm Street. The only problem is that this Nightmare reboot seems more pre-occupied with being a shot-for-shot remake of Wes Craven's original than it is at just being a good scary movie. The result is a bit bland, leaving us wondering if this movie is made for people who LOVE the original so much they'll watch any Freddy? Or is it for people who have no idea how scary Freddy should be? ~Matt + Nat

09:44

THE LOSERS REVIEW: More True to the Name than the...
Unfortunately, The Losers, which was adapted from the Vertigo comic by the same name, definitely lost something in translation from the incredible source material it was based on. Despite an amazing cast of Uhura, The Comedian, Human Torch and Michael from the Lost Boys, an espionage movie based on a comic wasn't enough to bring out genre supporters, and it suffered a crushing defeat at the box office. Probably based on ads that make the movie out to be the A-Team that you've never heard of. Which, is actually an honest depiction of the film, which lets fans of the comic down, as well as audiences expecting anything more than a typical action flick.~Matt + Nat

09:04

KICK-ASS REVIEW: Brutal, Bloody, Brilliant
We couldn't have been more blown away by Kick-Ass. A top-notch story, great performances, incredible humour and a surprisingly meaty film-going experience were disguised as a goofy superhero comedy by Lionsgate's one-dimensional advertizing campaign. If you haven't seen Kick-Ass, and you can take some gruesome violence and potty-mouthed humour, you owe yourself a night out at the movies to let Matthew Vaughn and Mark Millar Kick your Ass! ~Matt + Nat

CLASH OF THE TITANS REVIEW: Source Material, Anyone?
Director Louis Leterrier definitely brought to life an epic tale of gods and men, with huge stakes, massive monsters, and some great big actors. But if it's faithfulness to the 1981 movie you're looking for, or faithfulness to the legend of Perseus, or even a good 3D visual experience, Clash of the Titans is going to let you down. We enjoyed the hell out of it on some levels, and yet were left feeling completely empty on others. What did you think?~Matt + Nat

CLASH OF THE TITANS PREVIEW: Exclusive Scenes and...
The Incredible Hulk director Louis Leterrier brings Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes and Sam Worthington together to tell one of the oldest stories in Greek Mythology, and to remake the 1981 Clash of the Titans. Check out these six scenes from the movie and interviews with the cast and crew! ~Matt+Nat

07:19

BOOK OF ELI REVIEW: Rewatch!
The Hughes Brothers may have delivered us a familiar "by the book" post-apocalyptic world, the story certainly took some unexpected turns to the point that The Book of Eli may just have a "Sixth Sense" need for a rewatch! Just keep your eye on Denzel in some of the clips in this review!

03:39

BURIED SNEAK PEEK
Watch clips from the film and see Ryan & Rodrigo the night of the Sundance premiere! When we heard that Ryan Reynolds teamed up with Spanish Director Rodrigo Cortes to make a film that takes place exclusively in a coffin for 90-minutes, we were terrified and intrigued. When it rocked Sundance and got a $3-Million Lionsgate distribution deal right after its premiere, we were sold!

Nat and Matt bring to fellow fans cast and crew interviews and behind-the-scenes footage from films such as Watchmen, Harry Potter, and Twilight.		More 10:00 AVATAR REVIEW: Ho... Lee... Frak. James Cameron definitely made the most of nearly 15 years and 300 Million dollars making Avatar, because it looks and feels completely unlike any movie ever. Maybe it's the tasteful use of 3D technology, maybe the striking resemblance the CG characters have to their human actor equivalents, or maybe it was the fact that an entirely computer generated world actually felt REAL for the first time ever, but Avatar definitely knocked us both out... what about you?~Matt+Nat 09:41 Twilight Review: By A Twilighter And A Twi-Hard A review that is split down the middle as Nat is a card carrying Twilighter who's in love with the books and invested in the characters but Matt had no preconceptions of Twilight before the movie was released... and in fact had set the bar pretty low based on the ad campaign and our own preview of it. The movie had more than a few surprises in store in both cases! ~Matt + Nat 10:00 IRONMAN 2 PREVIEW: Exclusive Clips and Interviews John Favreau, Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow are back for the follow-up to 2008's Ironman, and joining them are Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell, Mickey Rourke and Scarlett Johansson to bring Tony Stark face-to-face with at least one more iron man of his own design: War Machine!~Matt + Nat
