How To Train Your Dragon 3D Review

How I Met Your Dragon is the latest offering from our friends at Dreamworks Animation, the folks responsible for such computer animate hits as Shrek and Madegascar, among many others. "They did Ice Age too, right?" No. You're thinking of Blue Sky Studios. If you're going to butt in, try not to make a fool of yourself. No, I don't have children. Yes, I went to see this movie by myself. No, I didn't regret it.

Cop Out Review

Cop Out is Kevin smith's first film since the funny and decidedly adult Zack and Miri Make a Porno. Alas, this time he is only the director, the writers being Mark & Robb Cullen.+Don't worry. This time it's ok if you haven't heard of them. Bruce Willis plays a cop? I'm listening. Tracy Jordan is his wacky partner? Sounds like it could be fun. Seann William Scott plays an annoying petty criminal? No deal! Just kidding; you had me at "Bruce Willis".

Jimmy Monroe and Paul Hodges are a pair of streetwise NYPD detectives and partners of 9 years. When we meet them, they are about to interrogate a small time drug offender in the hopes that he'll turn snitch and help them nab someone higher up the food chain. You may not have heard, but New York has been having a bit of trouble with organised crime lately and the cops are keen to put a stop to it before NY becomes an unsafe place to live.
