Love Exposure
Sion Sono is one director that is definitely controversial. His films range from the bizarre to the weird, to something more commercial and even going to the darkness that makes one doubt humanity. Sono’s …

Man of Steel (2013 film)
Those of you who remember Christopher Reeve's "campy" Superman films of the 1970's can forget anything you saw in those films.  There is nothing "campy" in this film and …

This is the End (2013 film)
Comedies is the kind of movie that would all depend on one’s sense of humor. I do have a twisted (sometimes sick) sense of humor, and so movies such as “Pineapple Express”, “Clerks” …

In a not-so-distant future, where one night in one year comes a time when all crime is allowed, that such a move had been sanctioned by the U.S. government. Such a concept is so intriguing that I wanted …
Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
It has been quite awhile since I've reviewed anything here on Lunch.  I've been extremely busy with life and job duties.  Those responsibilities have also limited a lot of my filmgoing …

Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
I might be the only person on Earth who liked this movie more than I liked Abrams' Star Trek 2009. Unfortunately, that's partly because I disliked the 2009 Star Trek. But Into Darkness does have …

Iron Man 3 (2013 film)
The Iron Man Trilogy has always been enjoyable to me, even though it's formulaic in every way.  The character depth is never really there and when it tries for it the results are pretty damn …

So this is another book to film adaptation. Considering I haven't read the book I cannot compare them (although I do plan on reading it eventually). The film was alright. I think Ezra Miller and Tilda …

The Last Stand (2013 film)
   I know I can’t be the first person to associate Kim Jee-Woon’s amazingly tepid THE LAST STAND with late 80’s / early 90’s action cinema, can I?  This flick feels …

Fast and Furious 6 (2013 film)
Really, film franchises that go past the # 3 sequel are rare and honestly, most of them aren’t that successful. I have to admit that I wasn’t exactly that fond of the first two films in the …
