Forgetting Sarah Marshall was a winner to be sure, but beyond that, I'd be hard pressed to come up with any other titles, pre-July, that left any sort of long lasting impression. Now, with the summer coming to an end, we've been graced w... Adam Mast Wed, 13 Aug 2008 21:25:39 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/The-Fly-Boys-21572.html Yes, it's true. The Fly Boys, not to be confused with the World War 1 film from 2006, is finally making it's theatrical bow. What makes the film so special? Well, aside from being shot locally by St. George's very own Rocco DeVilliers, it has thrills, edge, and a lot of heart. In The Fly Boys,... Adam Mast Tue, 29 Jul 2008 22:10:21 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Pineapple-Express-21573.html Are you ready for yet another Judd Apatow production? After the minor set back that was Drillbit Taylor, the producer is back in full swing with Forgetting Sarah Marshall and the righteous stoner comedy Pineapple Express. In Pineapple Express, Seth Rogen is Dale Denton, a slacker with an affinit... Adam Mast Tue, 29 Jul 2008 22:40:17 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Mamma-Mia-21568.html The Mamma Mia stage production has been dazzling audiences for years, so it seemed like only a matter of time before the Abba inspired musical would make the leap to the big screen. Alas, it has finally arrived, in all it's fluffy, incompetent grandeur. Truth be told I'm not exactly the target audie... Adam Mast Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:05:10 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/The-Dark-Knight-21567.html At the risk of sounding absolutely pretentious, The Dark Knight is just about as amazing as you've been hearing. It does have flaws, but those flaws are minimal. This film achieves greatness in ways I wasn't expecting. At the very least, The Dark Knight will rank high among the year's very best fi... Adam Mast Sun, 20 Jul 2008 21:56:48 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Young-Heart-21569.html Do you remember the first time you heard Johnny Cash cover Nine Inch Nails' Hurt? Listening to senior citizens belt out uncharacteristic rock songs in the wonderfully charming (and inspirational) documentary Young@Heart sort of reminded me of listening to Cash sing that song. These sweet-natured ind... Adam Mast Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:41:21 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Hellboy-2-The-Golden-Army-21566.html For those who feel director Guillermo del Toro is the wrong man for The Hobbit, you might think twice about that assessment after seeing Hellboy 2: The Golden Army, a gloriously energetic follow up to his fantastically creative take on Mike Mignola's comic book. In The Golden Army, the lumbe... Adam Mast Thu, 17 Jul 2008 17:10:09 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/The-Happening-21557.html M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening, or as I like to call it, M. Night Shyamalan's I Dare You Not To Laugh, is a train wreck on an epic scale. A film so awful it's almost worth sitting through, particularly if you want a good laugh. For my money, this flick is even funnier than You Don't Mess With t... Adam Mast Mon, 30 Jun 2008 18:09:05 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Journey-to-the-Center-of-the-Earth-3D-21556.html This updating of the Jules Verne classic features the forever goofy Brendan Fraser as Trevor, a scientist whose convinced that Verne's popular piece of literature isn't merely a work of fiction, but rather an instructional guide. With the aid of his young nephew Sean (Josh Hutcherson) and mountain g... Adam Mast Mon, 30 Jun 2008 17:51:28 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Wanted-21554.html Wanted is a big, loud, stupid movie, but for most of it's running time it works. Why? Well, primarily because it appears to know that it's big, loud, and stupid. Based on the comic book series by Mark Millar, Wanted features Atonement's James McAvoy as Wesley Gibson, an apathetic office drone s... Adam Mast Mon, 30 Jun 2008 17:17:28 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Wall-E-21552.html Finally, a 2008 summer film that lives up to the hype. Iron Man and Kung Fu Panda are winners to be sure, but Wall-E is in an entirely different league. This is a breathtaking, charming, and expertly crafted display of visual storytelling, and it only could have been delivered by the geniuses at P... Adam Mast Sat, 28 Jun 2008 23:44:25 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/The-Incredible-Hulk-2-21547.html Director Louis Leterrier and the writers (IMDB.com credits list Zak Penn and Edward Norton (writing under the name Edward Harrison) and Stan Lee and Jack Kirby (taking credit for the Marvel comic book) acknowledge the Hulk's provenance, as we quickly flash through the back-story, leaving dreary expo... Victoria Alexander Fri, 13 Jun 2008 16:28:43 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Kung-Fu-Panda-21534.html Kung Fu Panda is perhaps the best non-Pixar CG animated feature I've seen. At the very least, it's on par with the first Shrek. In Kung Fu Panda, Jack Black provides the voice of Po, a lazy, oafish, goof-ball of a Panda whose plucked from his family's noodle shop and plunged into high octane ad...

Yes, I've seen Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. It took me a little longer than I thought it would to write this piece. Before getting to the actual review, here's a brief look back at Indy's first three adventures. This way, you know where I'm co... Adam Mast Mon, 26 May 2008 01:32:54 +0700 http://zboneman.com/movies/Iron-Man-Adams-Take-21526.html Iron Man represents a return to the realm of great cinematic super hero adaptations. After disappointing efforts like Fantastic Four and Spider-Man 3, Marvel Comics, director Jon Favreau and star Robert Downey Jr. have certainly done good by this one. Based on a lesser known comic book hero (b... Adam's Mast Mon, 12 May 2008 22:57:40 +0700
