The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button by: Patrick Daniels

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a poignant interweaving story about love, adversity and affliction. The story, based on F. Scott Fitzgeralds delightful tale, centers around an early 20th century man who is inexplicably born as a feeble, stout man in his 80s and ages backwards.Its good luck for Benjamin that he is found by Queenie, played by Tarajii Henson, at her boarding home's doorstep. Naturally he is thought to have insurmountable birth defects, so he is abandoned there when he is born. Queenie is in charge of the senior home, and Benjamin's issues and different color from her own don't slow her down from adopting him. The fact that she will never have her own children must surely have weighed on this decision. Benjamin is living as an old man with the other old people at the home....

How Could Chickenfoot Possibly Not Rock! by: Patrick Daniels

Representations of Rock, also known as: Hagar, Van Halen, Chili Peppers, and Satriani. What happens when you put these rock monsters in the same sandbox? Out pops Chickenfoot. Sammy Hagar is the mad scientist behind this idea. As if he wasn't busy enough playing guitar, writing music and singing vocals.Although he did sing with Van Halen for a while, Hagar is primarily well known as a solo rocker. Chickenfoot is not his first grouping of super rockers. Hagar, Shon, Aaronson, and Shrieve, known as HSAS was brought together by him in the mid-eighties. Although these guys were from such greats as Santana and Foghat, Chickenfoot is far and away more exciting than that crew.Hagar pilfered bassist Michael Anthony from Van Halen. From The Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer, Chad Smith jumped ship. And...

How To Know If He's Just Not That Into You by: Patrick Daniels

From the preview, you may think that this is a "Chick Flick". Women want to run and see, men want to run in the opposite direction towards the Transformer movie. Although the movie is about relationships, and the unspoken rejections that go along with dating it has the humor and cast for both men and women.Some of the top name actors in this film include, Jennifer Aniston, Ben Affleck and Drew Barrymore. Barrymore is the star of the film and gives us one of the films most hysterical lines about being rejected through 7 different technologies. The humorous part, would have to be the truth behind the statement!The great things was that in addition to the humor, making light of sometimes awkward situations and painful dating issues, there was an underlying understanding to it all that struck...

Black Eyed Peas The E.N.D. CD:Just The Beginning by: Patrick Daniels

The Black Eyed Peas just released their latest, fifth album to mixed reviews, perhaps because some fans have now gotten away from the music of the BEP's and perhaps because they have gotten to listen to Fergie on her own, a few people were disappointed in this album, however it must be said that this seems to be some of their best collaborative work to date.The new album brings us a familiar sound, with new dance tracks. Although there is a similarity in the sound you will not be disappointed as the lyrics can range from moving beats to just plain bizarre.Their latest album, entitled The E.N.D. (which stands for Energy Never Dies) is full of fifteen tracks from hip hop to booty shaking. It provides more of a party tune then previous albums and will have everyone on the dance floors, even those...

You'll Watch the Watchmen Over and Over by: Patrick Daniels

Watchmen, was one of those film that I had no intention of seeing. My friends were all going and I decided to join, but ave never heard of the film, now I am glad I made that decision. It was such a great movie that I am not only anxiously awaiting the DVD release, later in the month, I have already pre-ordered it!The movie is based on the graphic novel by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. The story takes place in an alternate 1985, where the Cold War is still going strong and Richard Nixon is still president. This profound movie features a rich plot, with many levels, including good vs.evil, internal conflict and corruption of those with power.This is more then just a comic book made into a movie, it is a comic placed on the big screened and mixed with edge of your seat action. Watchmen was also...

The two move to New York City for a chance for fame and each show focuses on the trials and tribulations that they face along the way, in a very hysterical manner.Now, although I thoroughly enjoyed the first season and laughed hysterically at all the songs, I sometimes felt that they were far from the plot and just thrown into the story. This was not the case with...

La Roux New Synth Pop Duo and Their Self Titled First CD by: Patrick Daniel

The latest band to enter into the pop scene is La Roux, pronounced La Roo. They are a synth duo band that is made up of an eccentric women with a dramatic flare, Elly Jackson and a man that up until late he was content with playing a background role, Ben Langmaid. Many of the album track are written by Jackson about her 5 year on again off again relationship, and together they attribute much of their musical influence to 80's pop band like Human League, Blancmange, Yazoo and Heaven 17.The very first album release is a self entitled album that has all the sounds of an 80's synth pop band and some of the 80's look as well. No matter what the look their sound is still extremely impressive.It is always a risk purchasing an album from a new band, but I can honestly say that this album is worth...

"Miss Congeniality" Had an Identity Issue, Sandra Bullock Saved It From Disaster by: Ed Bagley

Miss Congeniality - 2 Stars (Average)"Miss Congeniality" had a real identity problem as a movie. Unfortunately for Sandra Bullock, the star of the film as FBI agent Gracie Hart, Miss Congeniality could not take her as far as her performance merited.She did win a second Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy; her first was the same nomination for her role as Lucy in "While You Were Sleeping".Released in 2000, Miss Congeniality is not a drama, an action adventure, a police flick, a comedy or a romantic comedy. It is a mismatch of all and a master of none. When you add in the corny, juvenile, inappropriate dialog, the film is lucky it had Sandra Bullock as its centerpiece because without her, it would have been beyond dismal.In other words, the writers of Miss Congeniality—Marc...

Radio - 4 Stars (Excellent)"Radio"—the true story of high school football coach Harold Jones and a mentally-challenged young man named James Robert "Radio" Kennedy—might well be one of the most under-rated and under-appreciated movies in film history.James Kennedy was nicknamed "Radio" by the townspeople of Anderson, South Carolina because he was always listening to discarded radios. As a youth he would push or ride a grocery cart down the street, talking to no one. It was 1976 and Radio did not attend school because he was mentally challenged, and an easy target for kids more fortunate.After some football players on coach Harold Jones' T. L. Hanna High School team harass, intimidate and scare the living daylights out of Radio (played by Cuba Gooding Jr.), Jones befriends and protects Radio...

"Kingdom of Heaven" Sought to Be an Epic Film, But Became a Disaster in Production

Kingdom of Heaven" Sought to Be an Epic Film, But Became a Disaster in Production by: Ed BagleyKingdom of Heaven - 1 Star (Terrible)Unfortunately for the "Kingdom of Heaven", what started out as an ambitious epic film about a little known time in history, became an almost disaster at its release and was only average at best. There is enough blame to spread around.First, there is a reason why the immortal "Gone with the Wind", which involved a turbulent love affair in the American south during the Civil War and Reconstruction, took almost 4 hours to see. You apparently cannot make a quality, classic film about the Civil War in less time. Ken Burns' acclaimed documentary film "The Civil War" consisted of 9 episodes and took 11 hours to view.Second, there may be a market for a film in the Middle...
