Film Preview: Romance and Cigarettes (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C+ Review: It’s got a woman who’s smoking. The title’s covered, but the viewer’s eyes aren’t and should be as this poster has very little going for it other than a pull for adult men.…

Film Preview: Mamma Mia (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: Sparkly and bold, but hardly inventive. This is the kind of title-only poster that is purposefully uncomplicated and it doesn’t help much. It may entice Abba fans or those familiar with the musical,…

Film Preview: Made of Honor (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: There’s nothing original or exciting about this poster. It’s over-simplified, inelegant and supremely boring. Trailer Rating: C- Review: Another wedding comedy, this time about a man as a maid of honor. Pair this…

Film Preview: Hancock (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: They went out of their way to make Will Smith relatively off-putting. The hat is ugly and his parched lips are distracting. That the city is reflected in his glasses does helps make…

Film Preview: The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: It’s almost impossible to tell what the film’s about simply by looking at the poster. You wouldn’t even realize that it features a fish-out-of-water story. The colors are bland and the setting uninteresting.…

Film Preview: Nim’s Island (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C+ Review: Overflowing with images that represent the film, the poster for Nim’s Island is too chaotic. The colors are too distinctly separated, though it does give a light and airy impression that may be…

Film Preview: First Sunday (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: Rudimentary and unexceptional, this poster exemplifies only the complete lack of creativity that can go into poster creation. Trailer Rating: D Review: There are very few previews that are this lazy. It tries…

The DVD Report #33
Finally! I now have my copy of the Ford at Fox box set. It is the DVD collection of the year, and well worth waiting for, but I have to caution that it is not for everyone. The casual collector will probably be satisfied with the previously available Young Mr. Lincoln, Drums Along the Mohawk,…

Film Preview: Nanking (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: Classic, stylized but uneventful. It’s decent to look at, but hardly magnificent. The poster is simple and avoids shouting about the stars that are narrating. Trailer Rating: B Review: Taking, lesser known actors…

Film Preview: In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C+ Review: Your typical fantasy poster. It’s been used for Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and many other pictures set in a fantastical world. Not very impressive, nor interesting. Trailer Rating: C- Review: I…

Film Preview: Lust, Caution (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B Review: It’s hard to discribe how I at one time both like and dislike this poster. It uses similar colorations to other posters, but it’s intriguing nonetheless. The Chinese character on the background would…
