Machete Movie Review

Eric Melin and Trevan McGee from Scene-Stealers.com review the new Robert Rodriguez exploitation flick Machete starring Danny Trejo. A project Rodriguez was trying to get off the ground for years, he made a Machete trailer and included it in 2007's Grindhouse, but now Machete the full-length film is no longer a dream--it's a reality. See what Scene-Stealers thought of the movie and see clips from Machete in this on-camera movie review.

Inception Movie Review

Eric Melin and Trevan McGee from Scene-Stealers review Christopher Nolan's new sci-fi action film “Inception,” starring Leonardo DiCaprio as a corporate dream raider.Nolan directed “Memento,” “The Dark Knight,” and “The Prestige.” He specializes in films that work like jigsaw puzzles while at the same time blending in a good amount of obsessive character traits to make things really interesting. With “Inception,” there is a good 30 minutes or so of fairly drab exposition followed by 90 minutes of the most dense and thrilling cinema you’re likely to experience all year. Be prepared for gravity-defying action like you’ve never seen, a mind-bending narrative, and a mix of CGI and in-camera special effects that looks so real you’d swear the world was really folding in on itself. Nolan orchestrates the entire ambitious movie like it’s the secret back page of the coach’s playbook. It’s complicated and risky and everything has to go just as planned, but if it works—the payoff is everything. And whether you understand all of the plot’s complexities by the end of the film or not, you’ll probably be convinced of one thing—“Inception” pays off in spades.

certified Twihard Kristin Dittmar, who is a member of Team Jacob to
review Twilight: Eclipse, the third installment of the Twilight

again as Bella is put in a vampire - werewolf love triangle. Isn't
that the dream of every teenage girl? David Slade takes over as
director and finally there is more conflict than there was in New
Moon, but are the overheated soap-operatic elements to corny and hard
to swallow? Stick around after the review for a Team Jacob vs. Team
Edward showdown!

Toy Story 3 Movie Review

Eric Melin and Trevan McGee review the
latest from Pixar, Toy Story 3. It's been 11 years since Toy Story 2,
and true fans of the series may be worried that there was no reason to
revisit Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz (Tim Allen), and the rest of Andy's
toys for another installment. Is Toy Story 3 another Pixar triumph or
is it a case of diminished returns like the awful Shrek series from
DreamWorks. Find out about Toy Story 3 in this on-camera review with
clips from Toy Story 3.

Clash of the Titans (2010) Movie Review

This remake of Clash of the Titans stars Sam Worthington as Perseus, the son of Zeus, who goes on a quest to kill the mighty Kraken and save the city of Argos. Does Clash of the Titans hold up?

Hot Tub Time Machine Movie Review

Eric Melin and Trevan McGee review Hot Tub Time Machine, the new 2010 raunchy sex comedy from the writer of Grosse Pointe Blank, with a guest appearance by Scooter Jones from You Tube web series The Sports Buddaye. John Cusack, Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson, and Clark Duke go back in time to party like its 1986. The movie has a lot of similarities to The Hangover and Old School, but does Hot Tub Time Machione live up to the absurdity of its title? Is Hot Tub Time Machine a worthy addition to the 80s time travel canon of Back to the Future? Find out in this review, featuring clips from Hot Tub Time Machine.

Up in The Air Movie Review

Eric Melin and guest host Trevan McGee (InkKC.com) review the new Jason Reitman movie Up in the Air starring George Clooney, Vera Farmiga, and Anna Kendrick. The film is being released as a slow rollout across the U.S. in hopes of gernering Oscar buzz. The movie Up in the Air was adapted from a novel and taps into the feeling sof many during this downturn in the economy. Does Up in the Air have what it takes to win Best Picture? How does it stack up against the other releases of 2009? Watch clips from the movie Up in the Air and see what Eric and Trevan say about it in this Scene-Stealers review.

The Road Movie review

Eric Melin and guest host Trevan McGee (from InkKC.com) review the bleak new Cormac McCarthy adaptation The Road. Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, The Road was directed by John Hillcoat and follows a father (Viggo Mortensen) and son (Kodi McPhee) as they journey across a scorched Earth after the apocalypse. Does it live up to the emotional heights of the book? Is it a paean to fatherhood or a numbing exercise in depression? Find out in this review of The Road with clips from the movie.

2012 Movie review

Eric and guest host Trevan McGee (InkKC.com) review the new apocalyptic disaster porn movie 2012 starring John Cusack and directed by Roland Emmerich. The Mayan prophecy says the world will end in 2012, and Hollywood has co-opted that premise for a 2012 disaster flick with lots of state-of-the-art CGI special effects. Is 2012 up to the adventure movie standards of Emmerich, who also did Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow? Does it at least succeed as a 2012 doomsday action movie? Find out in this on-camera movie review of 2012 with clips from the film.

Zombieland Movie Review

Melin welcomes Trevor McGee from
Inkkc.com back as guest host as they review the new horror comedy
Zombieland, starring Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone, and
Abagail Breslin. It's a weird mix of a Judd Apatow romantic comedy
where the geeky guy tries to get the hot girl and an action buddy road
movie, mixed in with some serious zombie ass-kicking. This review also
features clips from the movie. Watch the Scene-Stealers review of
Zombieland to find out all about this new zombieland comedy.

The Informant! Movie Review

Eric and guest co-host Ryan Magnuson
(The Sports Buddaye) review Matt Damon in the new Steven Soderbergh movie The Informant! which is at least partially based on the true story of an argi-business VP who got into some pretty hot water in the early 1990s. Soderbergh plays the movie for laughs and Damon put on 30 lbs. to play the role, but are they trying too hard? Watch this review
of The Informamt! to find out.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Movie Review

Eric and JD from Scene-Stealers review the sixth Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Some perspective: JD is a big Harry Potter fan who has read all the books and has liked all the movies. Eric hasn't read any of the books and felt that the series has been on a steady decline since the third movie, Prisoner of Azkaban. See clips from the movie and see their reaction a mere hours after a screening of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Bruno Movie Review

Eric Melin welcomes J.D. Warnock back as co-host for the Scene-Stealers.com review of Sacha Baron Cohen's new reality-prank movie, "Bruno." In the same vein as "Borat," the surprise comedy smash from 2006, "Bruno" follows a strange foreigner to U.S. soil. Larry Charles directed this rude, obnoxious, and terribly offensive comedy from Sacha Baron Cohen. Is Bruno as funny as Borat? Does the same formulas strike lightning twice? Is it too familiar? How much farther does Bruno go than Borat did? Find out in this Scene-Stealers.com review of "Bruno."

The Hangover Movie Review

The Hangover Movie Review Eric Melin and guest co-host Trey Hock (www.treyhock.com) review the new raunchy comedy The Hangover, starring Zach Galifainakis, Bradley Cooper, and Ed Helms. The Hangover is about three guys who put together the mystery what happened during a hard night of Vegas partying the night before. The Hangover movie review features scenes from the 2009 movie The Hangover. Eric and Trey agree that Zach Galifainakis' deadpan earnestness steals the show in The Hangover, but is it all its cracked up to be? Does The Hangover deliver in the promise of its trailer? Can The Hangover live up to the hype?

The Brothers Bloom Rian Johnson Interview

Eric Melin interviews writer/director Rian Johnson ("Brick") about his newest con man comedy The Brothers Bloom, starring Adrien Brody, Mark Ruffalo, and Rachel Weisz. This is an in-depth look at some of the secrets behind "The Brothers Bloom," and since Johnson's commentary was so interesting and thought-provoking, we decided to present the whole interview, which clocks in at over 10 minutes. If you are a true film fan, this is fascinating stuff. Eric and Rian discuss the challenge inherent in con artist movies, why storytelling is important to our lives, the challenge of a lack of dialogue, The Brothers Bloom's heightened stylistioc reality, and Johnson's new project, a sci-fi movie called "Looper." Check out this Rian Johnson interview about The Brothers Bloom.

Tuesday, May 26, 2009

Eric Melin and guest host Trevan McGee (inkkc.com) review Terminator Salvation, the fourth movie in the Terminator franchise that started way back in 1984 with James Cameron's The Terminator starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Terminator Salvation stars Christian Bale as John Connor, the leader of the resistance who is fighting for humanity's survival in the future. Terminator Salvation was directed by McG (Charlie's Angels, Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle) and is a bleak action movie set after Judgement Day, the nuclear holocaust. Even though Terminator Salvation is a dark and metallic-hued movie, Eric is hellbent on celebrating the summer blockbuster season--even though Terminator Salvation is not the first of the summer movies to come out in 2009. Is the Terminator saga still relevant or is it running on fumes?

Star Trek 2009 Movie Review

Eric Melin and guest host Billy Brimblecom review the new 2009 Star Trek movie, a reboot of the original Gene Roddenberry-created Star Trek series by new director J.J. Abrams, featuring original Star Trek characters like Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Dr. McCoy, Scotty, Uhura, etc. Leonard Nimoy and Simon Pegg also star. This new 2009 Star Trek features Eric Bana as a Romulan hell bent on revenge against the starship Enterprise. New Star Trek 2009 movie review, spoiler-free. Are Star Trek catch phrases too much? Is too much Star Trek never enough? Star Trek hits theaters Thurs. May 7 at 7pm, and some Star Trek showings are in IMAX.

Eric Melin from Scene-Stealers and guest host Aaron Weber from Transbuddha lock claws over the X-Men prequel starring Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. Does the movie live up to the hype?

Find out in this bestial review, featuring clips from the movie, and filmed directly following a press screening at the Screenland Theater in Kansas City, MO.

At SXSW, Eric picks Rogen's brain about Observe and Report, Freaks and Geeks, Scorsese, and lots more. We also have exlusive interview footage with some fun details on Rogen's new project "The Green Hornet." With Michel Gondry behind the lens, it will be exciting to see how this unfolds.

The Whitest Kids U' Know Miss March Interview

On the first day of SXSW 2009 at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX, Eric Melin interviews Trevor Moore and Zach Cregger from The Whitest Kids U’ Know on a live sketch comedy tour to promote the Fox Searchlight comedy “Miss March.” Is there a Whitest Kids U’ Know movie on the horizon? Will IFC renew the absurdist comedy troupe for a fourth season? Trevor and Zach answer these questions and talk about writing and directing “Miss March,” getting bottles thrown at them on The Whitest Kids U’ Know tour, and how cool it is that kids have to sneak into theaters to see their rated-R teen sex comedy.

I Love You, Man Movie Review

Eric Melin from Scene-Stealers and guest host Whitney Mathews (www.whitneymathews.com) review the new bromance comedy "I Love You, Man," starring Paul Rudd, Jason Segel, Jon Favreau, Jamie Pressly, Rashida Jones, J.K. Simmons, and Andy Samberg. "I Love You, Man" gives Paul Rudd a chance to flex his leading man chops, but does it give him a good character or script to work with? Find out in this on-camera movie review of "I Love You, Man" from Scene-Stealers.com.

Watchmen Movie Review

Eric Melin from Scene-Stealers and guest host Aaron Weber from Transbuddha review the new Zack Snyder movie “Watchmen,” an adaptation of the graphic novel masterpiece by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. They aren’t afraid to tackle such heady topics as fetishized violence and superhuman strength from costumed adventurers who are supposed to be portrayed as having no superpowers (save Dr. Manhattan of course!), a gross simplification of the comic’s complicated themes, a shocking lack of subtlety, whether the heavily stylized look was the right choice for the material, whether one viewing is enough to balance the spectacle vs. the storytelling, and Eric’s failed strategy of trying really hard to resist reading the book again right before seeing the movie. This is an emotional, honest look at a film that both reviewers had been anticipating for years and years, and one still refuses to give up on, even when all his instincts tell him he should do just that.

Coraline Movie Review

Eric Melin from Scene-Stealers.com and guest host Billy Brimblecom, drummer extraordinaire, review the new 3D stop-motion animation film "Coraline" and talk about its relation to Tim Burton and "The Nightmare Before Christmas." All the ads seem to suggest Tim Burton without actually saying his name, so that is addressed-- along with the spookiness of a kids' fantasy written by Neil Gaiman (of "Sandamn" comics fame) and the idea of 3D accentuating the movie without being too gimmicky. Also, don't forget to enter our Oscar Pick 'em Contest for 2009. Enjoy this on-camera review from Scene-Stealers.com!

Revolutionary Road Movie Review

Eric Melin and J.D. Warnock from Scene-Stealers are reunited in a moment so big it could only be eclipsed by Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet's first pairing since the record-breaking run of "Titanic" all those years ago. "Revolutionary Road" was directed by Winslet's husband Sam Mendes ("American Beauty") and adapted from the novel by Richard Yates. A depressing study of an unhappy married couple who feel trapped in the suburbs, it's about as far away from "Titanic" as you can get. See what Eric and J.D. thought of "Revolutionary Road" in this on-camera video review.

Curious Case of Benjamin Button Movie Review

Eric Melin from Scene-Stealers.com and guest critic Trevan McGee from inkkc.com battle it out over "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," a big Oscar prestige film starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett, adapted from the F. Scott Fitzgerald short story, and directed by David Fincher. Will it be the big contender for Best Picture at the Academy Awards that everyone predicts it will be or is it an overly long snorefest? One of our critics definitely has the latter opinion. Check out the instant on-camera review for "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button."

The Wrestler Movie Review

Scene-Stealers.com critic Eric Melin and guest co-host Whitney Mathews review Mickey Rourke’s comeback role in Darren Aronofsky’s new movie “The Wrestler.” Co-starring Marisa Tomei as the stripper who wins his heart and Evan Rachel Wood as his estranged daughter, “The Wrsetler” is a gripping, realistic walk through some important moments in the life of fictional 1980s professional wrestling icon Randy “The Ram” Robinson. It may not be the WWE (WWF) or ECW, but Aronofsky’s movie is about as hardcore as it gets.

Twilight Movie Review

Stephanie Meyer's teen vampire romance book "Twilight" makes it to the big screen this weekend starring Robert pattinson as Edward and Kristen Stewart as Bella. There's no doubt that "Twilight" will make tons of cash, but will it satisfy fans an non-fans of the book alike? Eric Melin of www.scene-stealers.com and guest co-host Whitney Mathews (www.whitneymathews.com) review "Twilight" from the perspective of someone who has and someone who hasn't read the book. Is the Catherine Hardwicke-directed vampire romance fantasy just for teenagers? Find out in this on-camera movie review of "Twilight."

Quantum of Solace Movie Review

Eric Melin and guest co-host and drummer extraordinaire Billy Brimblecom tackle the newest installment of the James Bond franchise. “Quantum of Solace” stars Daniel Craig as a less-talk, more-rock version of the mighty British 007 spy. This movie is already out in the U.K., but we here in the U.S. get our first crack at it this weekend in theaters. How does “Quantum of Solace” add up the the last Craig-Bond movie, “Casino Royale.” Find out in this on-camera review!

Zack and Miri Make a Porno Movie Review

Eric Melin goes it alone in this, the first-ever, one-man review in the history of Scene-Stealers. Kevin Smith's "Zack and Miri Make a Porno" starring Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks is reviewed by Eric, who has come under fire lately for not having enough of a female perspective. This review features Elizabeth Banks, Katie Morgan, and Traci Lords. The movie also stars Jason Mewes, Jeff Anderson, and Craig Robinson. Find out what all the fuss is about Kevin Smith's "Zack and Miri Make a Porno." Was it really too explicit for some theaters? Is the movie as dirty as its banned movie posters? Did Eric even notice that there was porno-style sex in the movie? Find out in this Scene-Stealers On-Camera Review of "Zack and Miri Make a Porno."

W. Movie Review

Eric Melin and guest co-host Nick Colby (bassist for The Dead Girls) review the new Oliver Stone George W. Bush biopic "W." Many will come away from Oliver Stone's movie feeling sympathetic towards the George W. Bush, who never lived up to poppy Bush's expectations, and that is why the film is so devastating. Josh Brolin is excellent, and has the same natural charm that got Bush elected, and Stone's movie suggests what we've seen is what we get. That's all there is to this president. If "W." feels empty, that's because it reflects the soul of the man whom it is about.

Body of Lies Movie Review

Eric Melin from Scene-Stealers.com and guest co-host Matt Brown have an Instant Review of the new Ridley Scott-directed "Body of Lies," starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe. "Body of Lies" is a mature movie about complicated issues. "Body of Lies" is a well-acted, convincing piece of work. But does it have as much emotional complexity as it has labyrinthine plot histrionics? Watch the Body of Lies Movie review now and find out!

Choke Movie Review

It's only the second book from "Fight Club" author Chuck Palahniuk to be adapted into a movie, but beyond sharing a couple themes with the Brad Pitt-Edward Norton film, it has little in common with it. Eric Melin and guest co-host Trevan McGee (from inkkc.com) review "Choke," starring Sam Rockwell, Anjelica Huston, and Kelly MacDonald directly following a screening of the movie at the Screenland Theater. "Choke" follows a sex addict and historial interpreter who may just be the Messiah. It's another Instant Review from your pals at Scene-Stealers.com!

Burn After Reading Movie Review

Fresh off of their Best Picture winner "No Country for Old Men," Joel and Ethan Coen return to the screen with a pitch-black comedy called "Burn After Reading," starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Tilda Swinton, John Malkovich, Richard Jenkins, and the lynchpin of the whole movie, Frances McDormand. Are the Coen brothers up to their old tricks again, putting desperate characters through their bizarre twisted rollercoaster ride? Scene-Stealers mogul Eric Melin and guest host Kevin Quinn from KRBZ 96.5 the buzz have the scoop in this on-camera movie review of "Burn After Reading," featuring clips from the movie! Here's a first-look movie review of "Burn After Reading," filmed moments after the credits rolled in the movie theater.

The Rocker Interview with Jason Sudeikis

Jason Sudeikis (“30 Rock,” “Saturday Night Live”) is so good as the rock band manager in the new movie “The Rocker” that he pretty much steals the show. Being rockers ourselves, we wanted to do something a little different than the normal junket interview while Jason was in town promoting “The Rocker” (starring Rainn Wilson), so we ambushed the comedy star with a homegrown rock n’ roll quiz to see how much of his portrayal was a result of Method acting. As it turns out, this didn’t quite go exactly as planned. This is probably the last time we try to quiz a movie star. Yikes! Maybe we should just stick to the regular junket questions. Anyway, enjoy this very uncomfortable interview with Jason Sudeikis from a dirty hotel room somewhere in Kansas City.
