Such is life...Nominated for eight Academy Awards (including Best Picture), Mervyn LeRoy's 1951 Rome-set epic tells the story of General Marcus Vinicius (Robert Taylor) who returns home from war to a city, now under Emperor Nero's (Best Supporting Actor nominee Peter Ustinov) rule,...

He was all lovey dovey with some dame and they were walking the streets of San Francisco with some awful Counting Crows, 90s type drek playing in the background. Turns out it's the flick BEDAZZLED that also starred Elizabeth Hurley's lovely Cleveland. Go on the opposite side of the spectrum and we have the man's man crime flick PRIDE AND GLORY with...

The film, which was nominated for five Oscars (and won for Best Adapted Screenplay), stars Paul Giamatti and Thomas Hayden Church as a pair of forty-somethings who...

TOMBSTONE, UNFORGIVEN, and SILVERADO are a couple in the past 20 years that really stand out. Oh, and SHANGHAI NOON too.

I thought the days of multiple sequels to a great horror movie were over. I also thought the days of flying Delorians, hover boards and genetic implants would be within the next few years (2015 to be exact) but that doesn't look like it's happening any time soon either.
