Armored September releases usually include blockbuster films that couldn’t fit in the summer schedule for one reason or the other. This looks to be one of those films. I don’t mind a good heist film, especially since this trailer […]

This week I will be looking at the trailer for Sam Raimi’s return to horror. Drag Me to Hell Sam Raimi has been busy with the Spider-Man series in recent years and he hasn’t directed a horror film since Army of Darkness way back in 1992. While Drag Me to Hell definitely seems way more

This week we look at the second trailer for this X-Men prequel. X-Men Origins: Wolverine From the looks of things, this look into the origins of Wolverine looks to be fine addition of the X-Men series instead of a cheap cash-in. I’m not sure whether the film will be shown chronologically or if there will

Race to Witch Mountain was the top film of the weekend with a gross of $24.4M. Last week’s top film, Watchmen dropped to second place with a gross of $17.8M. This is over a 60% drop for the film and it seems to suggest a lack of lasting mainstream appeal. Only time will tell if
