Toys For quite a number of years, Robin Williams was the reigning “manchild” in Hollywood movies, as many of his performances involved him exuberantly acting like a little kid, up to and including his performance as Peter Pan. Unfortunately, since everyone was forced to play it straight opposite him, it made his roles stick out […]

Trail Of The Pink Panther
Trail Of The Pink Panther Sometimes it might just be better to let some things lay to rest. Movies have a long history of having their lead actor die during production only to have the entire film retooled from its original script and story so that the existing footage filmed can still be used to […]
Training Day
Training Day Denzel Washington certainly confirms his status as one of the most powerful actors of our time as Alonzo Harris, corrupt narcotics cop. The story develops slowly, and director Antoine Fuqua slowly peels away the layers of the character as he goes from being a hardass street cop to a murdering thief and finally […]
Trick Or Treat
Trick Or Treat Despite its persecution as a musical genre along with its listeners (a far cry from the hands off, politically correct embracing of the far more offensive hip hop gangster rap style), the irony is that heavy metal as a musical art form has always carried underlying messages of both self empowerment and […]

TRON
TRON: Legacy
TRON: Legacy The original TRON was quite the cinematic anomaly when released back in 1982, what with its then state of the art computerized FX setting it apart from almost everything else back then (along with Jeff Bridges in his leading man movie star prime), which led many to misunderstand and underrate it in its […]
Tropic Thunder
Tropic Thunder: Director’s Cut Ben Stiller’s return to the director’s chair has resulted in a comedy of epic proportions, successfully spoofing both war movies and the massive Hollywood egos that make them. The fact that he combines the visceral experience of war with belly-laughs is a good example of his skill here. Admittedly the film […]
