The Good As tragic as this story it is it is saved by its main character’s hopeful message. The Bad I would have thought this release would have been released with more fanfare. A Mighty Heart recounts the moving tale of the slaying of Wall Street Journal writer, Daniel Pearl (played by Dan Futterman). The film follows his wife Mariane (played Angelina Jolie) as she pieces together where her husband is and eventually what happened to him....

The Good Ashurst and Scribbins are your average detectives and that is what makes them extraordinary. The Bad No real special features. Too much packaging real estate for two few discs. Kate “Ash” Ashurst (Caroline Catz) and Emma “Scribbs” Scribbins (Lisa Faulkner) may not be Cagney and Lacey but for Murder in Suburbia: Series 2 they more than get the job done. This two disc set has 6 episodes that sees the ladies coming up against all sorts of cases on their beat in Middleford....

A cold, lifeless hand takes your ticket. You’re left with a bone-chilling shiver as you move toward an empty theater seat. The lights dim, voices fade, the film begins. The screen starts to rip apart as the action comes straight for you. The show’s about to begin… For the first time ever, Universal Orlando is devoting its entire Halloween Horror Nights event to bringing horror films to life. All eight haunted houses, all six scare-zones and two live shows will be directly inspired by some of today’s most popular horror films....

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End is a fitting third film within this installment of movies. It is rich with adventure and lush in its sets and scope. However, this movie isn’t without its problems. I am not a nit-picker by nature and I don’t feel my comments discuss what should or shouldn’t happen or what the characters would or wouldn’t do. Rather, I think that Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, with a run time just shy of three hours, almost had too much of an expanse to play with....
