Review: 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadow' Is a Cartoon on Steroids That May Leave Older Viewers Unfulfilled
This is a non-spoiler review of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are one of the weirdest pop-culture icons that America has ever conceived, but they have found a way to stay in the hearts of fans since they were introduced. They have comics, games, cartoons, and even live-action films that have been spawned from their concept. It is a hard idea to put into the realistic setting of a live-action movie and unfortunately for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadow, the Turtles are still having trouble adjusting to live-action.

Rambles About IMAX 3D From A First Timer (And How The Walk Almost Made Me Sick)
I've never seen a movie on IMAX 3D because I dismissed it from the get-go as a gimmick that doesn't really add much to movies as a whole. Also, I wear glasses and don't own and will never own a pair of contacts (I have an irrational fear of them) so for me it was it was just a mixed bag of minor inconveniences. However, last week I had the chance to see The Walk starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt at an advanced screening at IMAX headquarters and, of course, it was in 3D. While the experience didn't make me a total convert because of a few minor niggles, I did get a good look at what the technology could do if used well.

Review: 'Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping' Is a Hilarious Victory for the Lonely Island Boys
When you probably first saw the trailer for Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping you probably thought "just a two hour long stupid Lonely Island sketch." I can assure you that Popstar is much more than that.

Ridley Scott Talks Prometheus 2 and Teases Its Connection With Alien 5 and Ripley
Ridley Scott has been making the rounds to talk about his upcoming film The Martian but, of course, he also had to speak about the upcoming sequel to Prometheus. Earlier this week he revealed that the title of Prometheus 2 was going to be Aliens: Paradise Lost which got people scratching their heads. What does the title reveal about the potential theme of the movie? What does it mean? And other deep stuff like that. As it turns out, Prometheus was almost called Paradise and the title itself goes back even further. When poked for an answer by Empire Magazine, he had this to say.

Captivating and, at times, intense. The Walk is definitely worth a watch.
The Walk starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt follows the story of Philippe Petit and the events leading up to his infamous walk across The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in 1974. It's a look at the man himself and his beginnings as a high-wire walker and how his obsession came to be. He calls this obsession "le coup" and speaks about it like it's a revolution in art. To him, this highly dangerous and highly illegal act is the pinnacle of his art and he pursues it relentlessly.

While it has its moments, Phase II is ultimately forgettable.
I loved the original Contracted so when I finally had a chance to sit down and watch Phase II, I was excited to see the next chapter in that series. Contracted: Phase II picks up right where the first movie left off with the main character of the first film, Samantha (Najarra Towsend), shown in a quick flashback in her full infected glory. The sequel follows her friend, Riley (Matt Mercer), who was infected by Samantha in the previous movie. While Riley is racing to find a cure, the detective attached to Samantha's case, Crystal Young (Marianna Palka), is attempting to put the pieces together and catch the man responsible for the infection in an effort to contain it before it becomes impossible to stop. However, where the first movie was an engaging and at times horrifying (in a good way), this follow up feels a bit more rushed and doesn't offer the same sense of dread and atmosphere as the first.

Review: Adam Sandler's 'The Do-Over' Is a Great Dark Comedy With More Heart and Twists Than Expected
This is a spoiler-free review of the Netflix comedy The Do-Over. Adam Sandler has had a rough go of things lately in the movie industry and his criticisms are well deserved for most of his films. It seems Sandler has found a temporary home on Netflix though, and it is allowing him to explore the darker and more R-rated side of things.

Can You Believe It's Been Ten Years Since This Happened?
The Lord of the Rings franchise has spawned a lot of memes of over the years but this little diddy has to be my favorite. Let me set the scene for you. The year was 2005, three years after the release of The Lord to the Rings: The Two Towers (2002). On August 18th of this fateful year, an artist named Erwin Beekveld submitted a video called "They're Taking the Hobbits to Isengard" to Albino Blacksheep (how many of you remember that?) and everything exploded from there.
