The Book of Eli, Lovely Bones, The Spy Next Door, C Me Dance Revisited




Film Geek Central show

Summary: Something for everyone this week on Film Geek Central. THE BOOK OF ELI is being tauted as a post-apocalyptic actioner along the same lengths as MAD MAX by way of TOJIMBO. But coming from the Hughes Brothers, the reality is far different. Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, Mila Kunis and Tom Waits star in this action film/parable. THE LOVELY BONES was a fantastic book and now it's a motion picture from none other than Peter Jackson. It is the story of a 14 year old girl who is abducted and murdered in the 1970s. In the years following her death, her family and friends slowly disintegrate over the strain. Meanwhile, she looks on from her place in a place just shy of Heaven. THE SPY NEXT DOOR makes our blood curdle. This Jackie Chan comedy made #2 on Scott's Least Awaited Films of 2010 list. So, this family comedy which finds Chan exactly where Vin Diesel, Arnold Schwarzenegger and the Rock have found themselves before is sure to be a brutal experience. Billy Ray Cyrus and George Lopez are also in this, surprise surprise. Also, after almost a year of Scott proclaiming it as one of the worst films ever released to theaters, Austin finally weighs in with his opinion of the unintentionally hilarious faith-based film C ME DANCE. All this plus film news and our DVD Picks of the Week. Hope to see you there, Film Geeks!
