‘Kung Fu Panda’ Review

By

Jack Black stars in my favorite live-action film of 2008 so far – “Be Kind Rewind.” And he also stars in my favorite animated film of the year – the hilarious “Kung Fu Panda.” Black voices Po, a Panda who loves Kung Fu and the great Kung Fu masters, and he dreams of someday becoming […]

‘College Road Trip’ Review

By

Last year Disney’s family comedy “The Game Plan” was predictable and not very funny. And Disney does it again in 2008 with “College Road Trip”, which is one of the worst films of the year so far. Martin Lawrence stars as a police officer whose daughter wants to go to a college that’s far away […]
