Okay so that might be a bit of an overstatement but it’ll definitely exceed all expectations for both moviegoers and critics. In no way am I an MMA fan. Sure, I’ve been punched in the face more times than I care to admit, but I’ve never thrown and landed a punch in my life. Sad, I know. But, the beauty of a great movie (yes, I’m calling “Warrior” great) is that it can take a subject that isn’t necessarily popular on a broad scope and make it relative or interesting to a general audience. You know when the chick you take as a date is clenching your hand so hard you hear bone crackle, that the movie’s awesome. And that’s what happened with “Warrior”.

It also collects hundreds of reviews written in new… Click to read more

Throw comedy everyman Will Ferrell into a zany project that deals with the rise and fall of a lovable idiot and the outcome will be golden – that seems to be the thought process behind Semi-Pro, Ferrell’s first official bomb (even if it does well in theaters, which it will).

I am completely baffled whenever I hear anybody say they find Dane Cook funny. Every time. Without fail. Am I being too critical or are the standards for comedy lower than ever?
