Venue: Winslow Theater | Location: 115 Kinsley Ave | Showtime: 7:00pm Nightly

WINSLOW (AZR) -- Fred Claus has lived his entire life in his brother's very large shadow. Fred tried, but could hardly live up to the example set by the younger Nicholas, who was just a perfect, well, saint. True to form, Nicholas grew up to be the model of giving, while Fred became the polar opposite: a fast-talking repo man who's run out of luck and money. Cast: Vince Vaughn, Paul Giamatti, Kevin Spacey. PG. Admission: $6. Showtime: 7:00pm; 4:00pm Sat. & Sun. more info: 928.289.4100 movie review

Monday, December 3, 2007 -- "The Terror of Tiny Town" @ The Loft Cinema
Venue: The Loft Cinema | Location: 3233 E Speedway Blvd. | Showtime: 8:00pm

TUCSON (AZR) -- Look out for The Terror of Tiny Town, one of the most notoriously bizarre bad cult flicks of all-time, and a frequent top vote-getter in Bad Movie polls. Unleashed upon an unsuspecting public in 1938, the film reaches new cinematic lows (while scaling new heights in hilarity) in its jaw-dropping notion that the world was desperately in need of a Western musical comedy populated entirely by little people (or "midgets," as the film calls them ... weren't the 1930s grand?)! $2 more info: 520.795.0844

As their lives converge, they join together and help each other discover the true meaning of family. PG-13. Admission: $6. Showtime: 7:00pm; 4:00pm Sat. & Sun. more info: 928.289.4100

Venue: Chandler Cinemas | Location: 2140 N. Arizona Ave | Time: 9:00pm

CHANDLER (AZR) -- Midnite Movie Mamacita says It's beginning to look a lot like -- bloodshed! Christmas is almost here, and a deranged, axe-wielding psycho is terrorizing a sorority. As it happens, the mad murderer also makes obscene phone calls -- and he lives right above the girls. If this movie doesn't make your skin crawl... It's On Too Tight! Black Christmas bleeds at 9pm while double feature Death of a Snowman melts with dirty action at 11pm. Admission: $6. more info: 480.628.8505

Stallone, "Bullets are easy , emotions are hard"

I like two types of films, action and westerns, both with guns, balls and beautiful women. Bullets and blood are exactly how Sly closed out his infamous Rambo franchise and as a director he has learned a vital ingredient in filmmaking-to surround oneself with the finest in the trade that can compliment the grittiness and violence his more recent films are known for.

Two Stand Up For Mel Gibson, One Rich, One Poor

Probably one of the best examples of Tourette Syndrome I can think of is the Irish bartender characterized by (Gerard Parkes) in Troy Duffy's directed franchise - The Boondock Saints. Simple or complex the neurological disorder affects more people than one would imagine. Historically having its suffers labeled with being demon possessed.

Quantum Leap Thinking

You Don't Have to Do It Alone

How many wonderful ideas have never been put out in world because their creator was afraid of appearing foolish? How many people have stifled their creativity because of fear? How many of you have never allowed your creative vision to become reality for fear of asking for help or creating a partnership? Far too many, I'm afraid.

Arizona Fishing Report Sept. 1

With dove season being open (Sept. 1), it's a good time for a cast-n-blast trip, especially along the lower Colorado River.

Yuma has the prime dove hunting with all of its agricultural fields. During the past two weeks, however, I witnessed lots of doves all along the Colorado River from the Topock Gorge to Yuma (and also lots of fat quail for October fin and feather trips).

Susan Granger Reviews


Piranha 3-D - Scary, Sicko and Chock Full O'Carnage

When many critics, including me, review a movie they take into consideration how well it accomplishes what it sets out to do. If it's a B horror-flick, is it a real fright-fest? Do you cringe? Do you shriek? If the answer is yes - then it accomplishes what it's meant to do, like "Snakes on a Plane."

Harvey Critic


THE AMERICAN, Grade: C

It's chic for a movie critic to say that "the book is better," but in this case-considering that the story is a slow-moving psychological suspense thriller-Martin Booth's 1990 novel is the way to go. As you turn the pages you will doubtless wonder what comes next, the type of tale that intrigues on the page but comes across inert on the big screen. As directed by Anton Corbijn, "The American" is spare of dialogue (script by Rowan Joffe and the novelist), the music by Herbert Grönemeyer either non-existent or anything but intrusive, with a landscape in Italy's Abruzzo region that's, what should we say, European? The medieval town built on a hill, scene of most of the action, would be nice to drive through but would hardly entice tourists to stay overnight. This is the sort of place, however, that a fellow in the service of assassins might want to live, a form of redemption that he would not likely find in his home country but rather as an expatriate living the quiet life away from what novelist Martin Booth calls "the shadow-dwellers."
