Based on the comic book series from DC/Vertigo, The Losers is a mediocre entry in the cartoon violence action genre. There are some cool action sequences, a decent but familiar revenge themed plot and a couple of good laughs along the way but there are also some big plot holes, overly kinetic direction from Sylvian White and one terrible performance. The first twenty minutes are fairly painful but overall the film improves over its running time. In the first few scenes it’s as if the actors have no chemistry together and haven’t yet figured out how to play off one another. This does improve over the life of The Losers which is why the movie merits a 5 and not a 4.

I have to admit that the first time I saw the trailer for Steve Carell and Tina Fey’s romantic action comedy Date Night, I was quite skeptical. I thought that you get two huge comedy stars, Carell and Fey together in the same movie and this is what you give them to do… a ridiculous action movie!? Boy was I wrong. Date Night is one seriously funny movie that will leave you smiling long after you leave the theatre. 

As you all may have noticed, things haven’t been getting updated as often as they should this week. The daily chart hasn’t been changed since last week and I haven’t put up a weekend results column or new trailer park or popcorn chart. I’m very sorry for this but I am on a family vacation at Universal Studios in Orlando. I thought I’d have enough energy to update the site at night but man I always forget how those theme parks wipe you out. I will be posting a few things however…

Valentine’s Day with its sprawling cast and characters is a bit too much and too little at the same time. There are way too many characters which in turn means way too little screen time for some of the more interesting characters and storylines. Although to be honest, each of the stories lead to a predictable cliché ending that you’ve seen countless times before. Each plot line feels formulaic and overly schmaltzy and almost sitcom like. Most of the talented cast is game (although some just phone it in) but they don’t have all that much to work with. In fact the character development is so minimal that I never really got past the actor and into their fictional counterparts. It was more like there’s Ashton Kutcher again or where’s Julia Roberts?
