The Narrow Margin

We're continuing Noir Week with The Narrow Margin! And I'm trying a little something different with this review.

One's hard and square, the other one's soft and round.

I hadn't heard of this one and just picked it up on a whim, so I had pretty low expectations. What a great noir it is! I'm surprised I haven't heard about it sooner.

The Big Heat

We continue our dip into Noir week with The Big Heat!

The Big Heat is directed by Fritz lang, and if you know anything about me, you know I gobble up any noir that has anything to do with Fritz lang. He's the man who did Noir before Noir was Noir! So going into it, I had relatively high expectations.

And boy were they met.

5 against the House

It's Noir Week! And you know what that means! Oh...you don't know what that means? Well lemme tell you!  I'll review 5 noir films for each day this week! And we're kicking it off with 5 Against the House!

Pictured: The only remotely interesting person in this movie.

Monday has a slow start with 5 Against. It's not going to win any awards for most noiry noir anytime soon, I'll tell you that.

Fake Movies: Act of Velour

I haven't yet seen Act of Valor, but as son as I saw the trailer, I knew I had to act.

Act of Velour, the first movie to use active duty DOOP officers to show missions that would really happen in real life! The action is so realistic!  This is Zapp Brannigan's breakout role as a movie star. With Kiff as an extra.  This might be the trailer.

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance

Get out your flaming skulls, we're reviewing Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance!

Can you tell I have no idea what a motorcycle really looks like? No? Ok good.

I expected this to be a flaming pile of crap. Well good news! It's technically not a flaming pile of crap, and it's slightly better than the first flaming pile!

The Last Lullaby

Get out your guns and sleeping pills, we're reviewing The Last Lullaby!

The Last Lullaby is a small indie noir I decided to check out. It's better than I expected, but still not as great as I wanted it to be.

Sketched Game: Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer

The Mass Effect 3 Demo is out, and with it comes the brand spanking new multiplayer.  I still haven't finished Mass Effect 2, so I'm not even THINKING of touching the Story mode, but over the last week I got the chance to try out the multiplayer spoiler free!  Considering the last two games were single player only, I, like many a gamer, was apprehensive at first. But I can safely assure you, the gaming masses, that it is an utter joy and a welcomed addition.

NOTE: I played the XBOX 360 version.
