We have taken the ultimate challenge here at TVCasualties headquarters: we will attempt to watch 365 movies in 365 days… or die trying. (Okay, not really.)
Here’s a recap of Week 1:
End of Watch – 2/5 stars This Gyllenhaal cop movie has some Oscar buzz, to which I say, “OVER-RATED! CLAP-CLAP! CLAP-CLAP-CLAP!” See our [...]
In End of Watch, Brian Taylor (Jake Gyllenhaal) and Mike Zavala (Michael Peña) are LAPD officers that think they’re cock of the walk, bad ass, crime fighting, protectors of The Law. I hope that works out well for them.
Officer Taylor walks around with a little camera clipped to his uniform, making End of [...]
If you want to watch a funny movie, but you also wanna see someone get their damn throat slit, you’re probably going to want to watch a funny horror movie.
If you’re not in the mood for that, you could always play some bingo: Play at foxy bingo.
Behind the Mask: The Rise of [...]
I also dug up a few of my favorite Ryan Dunn moments:
I was about to start this review with the complaint that Jackass 3D relied a little too much on the poo, vomit, and scrotum gags. And then I realized how dumb that would sound. After all, isn’t that what Jackass is all about?

After waiting a year (almost) for the movies of 2000-2009 to fully sink in, we’re finally prepared to unleash our best of the decade list. Hold on to your butts.

In many ways, life in China is almost incomprehensible to the average American. Lixin Fan’s documentary, Last Train Home, gives us a glimpse, a sometimes disturbing one, of life in China through the lens of one family of migrant workers.

(My personal favorite quote is “My mind is just a piece [...]
It’s the Appalachian equivalent of Jersey Shore. The opening minutes of Julien Nitzberg’s documentary, “The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia“, give a rapid fire family history of the film’s subject, the White family of Boone County, West Virginia. A gun shot sound effect punctuates. The patriarch, D. Ray White, was [...]
