Movie Review: Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol

by Kroze Kresky, Media Editor

Normally fourth installments of film series end up being stale, boring rehashes of what has come before. Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol had a lot of things going against it, but much like the Ethan Hunt and his team pulling off the impossible time and time again, this movie- against all odds- ends up being the best of the series and one of the most entertaining movies of the holiday season.

DVD Review: Transformers Prime – Darkness Rising

by Matt Sernaker, Managing Editor

The war between the Autobots and the Decepticons starts again for a new generation as the hit computer-animated series, Transformers Prime, makes its way home in the special DVD release of the mini-series Darkness Rising. The original 5 part premiere of this new Transformers installment has been re-cut with additional footage to make it feel like a full theatrical experience. This new series was developed by Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, (two of the men behind the live action Transformers movie franchise) and while that fact might concern some fans, Transformers Prime is a show that definitely blows away all expectations and is a series to be reckoned with!

Movie Review: Hugo

by Ryan Ocular, Guest Reviewer

Hugo is a superb film that offers more than viewers might expect. You would expect it to be about Hugo and his adventure to get an automaton working. However, the movie heads into an unexpected arc as captivating as Hugo’s. To avoid spoiling the magic of the film, I will refrain from exposing it. There is also a note of concern for parents as the second arc becomes serious and dark. I would suggest this film for 9 year olds and older so they can understand and appreciate it more. Nonetheless, it is a masterful movie experience.

Blu-ray Review: Super 8

Super 8, the newest film from the mind of LOST creator J.J. Abrams and Sci-Fi mastermind Steven Spielberg, is now available for you to own in a special Blu-ray/DVD combo pack!

So, what is Super 8 and why do you need to watch it? Imagine E.T. The Extraterrestrial and Cloverfield, mash them together with a dash or two of awesome special effects. This movie is a solid win for Paramount Studios and Amblin Entertainment (who also made E.T.), as it allowed audiences to experience a great take on the science fiction genre,  with the pleasant addition of a genuine, feel good story and believable cast of characters from an 80’s movie.

It’s time to swing into action! Spider-Man: Edge of Time is now available to own on XBox 360, PS3, Wii, and Nintendo 3DS!

The action kicks into high gear with our favorite wallcrawler in a follow-up game to Bennox’s 2010 release, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, as he must face off against threats from his own time, not to mention enemies from the far off year of 2099! Luckily, Spidey gets some help from his old friend, Miguel O’Hara, aka Spider-Man 2099. The two heroes must work together to stop an evil mastermind from going back and time and altering history as we know it. Can the two Webheads stop time from unraveling?
