Star Wars : Episode I – The Phantom Menace opens today newly remastered in 3D. The original 3 Star Wars movies came out in 1977, 1980 & 1983. Since George Lucas had said in multiple interviews that he had 9 parts already written, everyone expected the next film to come out in 1986 following the 3 year schedule that had been established. By the time 1989 rolled around people realized that they may never see another Star Wars movie again.

Movie Review – The Devil Inside
The Devil Inside is another movie about Exorcisms, and like The Last Exorcism it is filmed in the Blair Witch style. The story and acting is fairly effective. If anything, by the end it feels as though the movie should have done more.

This is the second Sherlock Holmes movie starring Robert Downey Jr. in the title role and Jude Law as Watson. Both movies are Directed by Guy Ritchie. This film is slightly better than the first but that isn’t saying a whole lot. Both movies have the same strengths and weaknesses and the weaknesses are a serious issue. Sherlock Holmes simply isn’t done correctly. Robert Downey Jr. portrays the character well with a slight bit of overacting for humor’s sake. The flamboyant, witty, attentive and obsessive sensibilities that he brings to the role are a good thing. The problem is that the brilliant and analytical way that he should be solving mysteries is given short shrift and there is an attempt to fill that in with some well staged but lifeless action sequences.
