The Karate Kid starring Jaden Smith, Jackie Chan, Taraji P. Henson directed by Harald Zwart If you’re going to do a remake, why not The Karate Kid? Well, technically its not a remake; its more of a sequel. Come to think of it, that’s not quite right either.

Get Him to the Greek starring Russell Brand, Rose Byrne, Colm Meaney, Jonah Hill, Elisabeth Moss, Aziz Ansari, Sean ‘P.Diddy’ Combs, Kristen Bell, Tom Felton directed by Nicholas Stoller I’m a sucker for a good summer comedy.

By KevtheStampede | Published: June 3, 2010
Harry Brown starring Michael Caine, Emily Mortimer, David Bradley, Iain Glen, Liam Cunningham, Ben Drew directed by Daniel Barber Simply knowing that Michael Caine is involved in a film is more than enough reason to get me out and into my local movie theater.
