Timecop – Quickie Review
If there was ever a movie that could benefit from a remake, it's this one. That being said, this film is still campy fun.

Abyss, The – Quickie Review
Wonderfully thrilling, thoroughly intense, emotionally uplifting movie with absolutely dazzling special effects. For my money, this is James Cameron's best film. And as good as it is, the director's cut is even more phenomenal. It really fleshes out the story more and adds some stellar visuals of the alien landscape. … [Read more...]
