Goon, Gone, and Project X »

A few quick flicks…I found it interesting that as my week went on, it was swapping an O for an E that got me from Goon to Gone…
GOON
Yes, Seann William Scott has two n’s in his name AND he has seemingly forsaken Kevin Smith.  Yes, he passed on Smith’s Hit Somebody in lieu of doing [...]

Post Oscars Refraction: A Smattering of Films »

I have been watching movies, I promise!  I actually survived a medical scare last week and spent a few days laid up in bed.  I used my time in bed and my recovery soon after to catch up on much of what I haven’t seen from recent months.

I will say that Time Warner On-Demand has [...]

3rd Annual Reel Rhino OSCAR POOL – Come Get Some! »

3rd Annual REEL RHINO Oscar Pool – JOIN IN THE FUN!!!

Folks, last year was a BEAR tracking in Excel all of the submissions to the Oscar pool.  Well track no more Reel Rhino, for I have found a trusted and reliable website that runs it for FREE!
Much like the Fantasy leagues have their sites in [...]

The Kid in the Helmet Gets Old With Jay and Silent Bob »

I promise you…I’ve not gotten lazy, just busy.  I must turn to THE KID IN THE HELMET, my trusted compatriot to pick up some slack for me.  I have seen Safe House (4 of 5 Horns) and I felt compelled to go and see the 3-D Phantom Men-ASS…yes, you can infer from that terrible joke, [...]

Reel Rhino’s Top 15 Films of 2011 »

So here it is folks…I know you all have been waiting with baited breath.  Feel free to exhale for the wait is over.
I have be honored to be a part of the Blinkin Blogs team, and I thank the site management for allowing me to continue to post.  I relish my relationship with movies and [...]

Review: TOWER HEIST and REEL RHINO is an ASS? »

So I’ll cut to the “I’m an Ass” part first.  I did go and see Tower Heist this evening.  I would like to think that for around 150 movies at the theater a year, that I am a sensitive movie goer.
I hate when folks bring loud and inappropriate aged kids to the theater.
I [...]

Mini Reviews: Puss in Boots and Margin Call »

Yep, mini reviews…that’s all I have for you…
I gave the leaves in my yard round two this week, so I am a little tuckered out.  I would like to get this out there…I think that Adam Sandler’s Jack and Jill will be THE atrocity of 2011.
There, I said it…I think they should reconsider the [...]

Nov. 24th, 2011, A Date That Will Live In Infamy »

On Wednesday, October 5th, 2011, Universal Pictures made a monumental announcement that would have a serious impact on the future of film and film going.
Tower Heist, a film by Brett Ratner, starring Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy, hits theaters on the 4th of November.  A very short 3 weeks later, Tower [...]

Warrior – One helluva film! »

While the tag team is more commonly associated with the WWE than MMA, the Catfish is working the corner with the Reel Rhino and the outcome is victory.  I love having the Cat swing by, he is the poet laureate of the Reel Rhino site and I appreciate it, no matter [...]

Carriers over Contagion, Who’d a Thunk It? »

Thursday night, I decided that to generate some momentum for Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion, I would check out Carriers.  Ever since I dropped the DVD portion of my Netflix, I have been watching flicks I may have otherwise missed (and some that I would have rather missed!).  I think this whole price change has [...]

The Help »

I ended up sending roving reporter, Dani California, into the fray to see The Help. While my intentions were to get her review posted over the weekend, well, you know what they say about the best intentions being fraught with disappointment.
The Reel Rhiness herself is planning a post as well, discussing the differences between the [...]

The Change Up, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, FWB »

The Change Up: 4.5 Horns
Rise of the Planet of the Apes: 4 Horns
Friends with Benefits: 4 Horns
Doubleheader Friday was in effect today and it was a hell of a day at sea!

This week also saw the first set photo of Selena Kyle in full Catwoman gear, that’s Anne Hathoway, one of my personal favorites.  Chris [...]

Crazy, Stupid, Love. »

Crazy, Stupid, Love.  I guess by the book, this is just another ensemble rom-com, but who wrote that book anyway!
I ventured out this evening for a double-duty date night…my wife and I were celebrating both our 6th anniversary and her 33rd birthday.  She’s not yet old enough that she can get mad at me for [...]

Cowboys and Aliens »

Howdy folks!  Glad I can check in again so soon…maybe it’s the manly man in me, not wanting the Winnie the Pooh post to sit on the home page for too long…or maybe it’s the old softy in me, bringing it up again so soon.  That was a damn fine flick and whether for the [...]

Preview Review: Captain America; Must See: BUCK »

I stand here tonight for two reasons:
1)    To share with you my take on an amazing documentary that I had the chance to see this week, and,
2)    To introduce you to Catfish, a guest making his first appearances on the Reel Rhino column.
Catfish is currently the object of my utmost jealousy…he is here is give [...]
