"The Hangover Part III"

Published Friday, May 24

Let`s not mince words: "The Hangover Part II" was awful. Shamelessly abysmal. So yeah, "The Hangover Part III" is better than "Part II," but we`re not exactly talking about a monumental achievement. There are a few more laughs this time around (a.k.a. more than one), but it`s still clear that what happened in Vegas four years ago shouldn`t have gone any further.

Digging Bay View

Published Tuesday, May 21

Five movies in Vegas

Published Tuesday, May 21

According to Hollywood movies, Las Vegas is either the greatest place on Earth or the worst place on Earth and everything that`s wrong with America. I`ve never been to Vegas so I couldn`t really say from first-hand experience what I think of Sin City, but I have seen several movies featuring the legendary town. So it`s almost like I`ve been there. Kind of. Barely. Anyways, in honor of "The Hangover Part III," here are five of the most memorable films featuring the city that truly never sleeps.

"Star Trek Into Darkness"

Published Friday, May 17

With all of that in place, it would seem the sequel`s phasers would be all set to stun. But something`s off. There`s a sequence where the starship Enterprise is flying at warp speed when a big, clunky-looking vessel comes up from behind and nudges it off its exhilarating track. That`s pretty much "Star Trek Into Darkness" in a nutshell, except replace the big, clumsy vessel with a big, clumsy story.

Collaborative Cinema film

Published Wednesday, May 15

Michael Viers is a horror movie junkie, but his upcoming project, "Love You Still," is less boogeyman and more "Old Man and the Sea." The most shocking part, however, is that the story - a tale of an old fisherman reflecting back on his life - comes courtesy of a junior in high school. It may seem like a strange combination, but for Milwaukee Film and their Collaborative Cinema educational program, it`s just another exciting year of locally-bred film and hopefully a sign of more to come.

Five college movies

Published Tuesday, May 14

After four years, several all-nighters and an embarrassing amount of ramen, Hot Pockets and Dr. Pepper for dinner, I - alongside thousands of others across the country - am finally making the triumphant walk across the graduation stage from childhood to adulthood, snagging a diploma along the way. If I ever get nostalgic for the university lifestyle, however, I can pop in one of these great college movies.

"The Great Gatsby"

Published Friday, May 10

Now there`s Baz Luhrmann`s rendition of F. Scott Fitzgerald`s "The Great Gatsby," done up as the big, loud extravagant 3-D summer blockbuster I doubt Fitzgerald had in mind when he wrote his time-honored critique of the vapid lifestyles of the rich and the growing emptiness of the American dream. The end result feels a bit too much like one of Gatsby`s parties: a whole lot of razzle dazzle with a hollow emotional core.

Five books turned movies

Published Tuesday, May 7

"Moulin Rouge" director Baz Luhrmann is the latest to attempt to cash in on classic literature with his slick, shiny 3-D rendition of "The Great Gatsby," coming out Friday. Before we see how Luhrmann`s second attempt at working with legendary source material goes, let`s take a peek at five other films that boldly attempted to abolish the phrase, "the book is always better than the movie," out of audience`s minds.
