Another DC Comics hero gets a workout in Jonah Hex, the movie incarnation of DC's scar-faced bounty hunter, played here by Josh Brolin. Out to exact revenge on the varmint who wrecked his face and killed his family, Jonah also gets yanked back into the service of his country--against his will, of course. Said varmint, Quentin Turnbull, is played by John Malkovich, although the more spirited villainy is provided by Turnbull's tattooed Irish assistant (Inglourious Basterds's Michael Fassbender plays the part with the kind of energy noticeably absent from the other cast members). In this 80-minute hodgepodge of a movie, Jonah regularly checks in...

I was not a huge fan of "Monsters Versus Aliens". It was decent enoughentertainment, but certainly not a must-see film. After all, there havebeen quite a few 3-D CGI films and this one was no better or worse thanmost of them. Watchable, certainly, but that's about all. Well, myopinion of "B.O.B.'s Big Break" (a special feature on the DVD for"Monsters Versus Aliens") is pretty much the same--it's entertainingbut certainly nothing exceptional.One DivX in 2D - Two DivX in 3D

Just when you thought there was nothing more outta-left-field this week than a Mickey Rourke rap anthem: here is the first clip from David Cross's new TV pilot, The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. Back in June, we first reported on Cross's hopeful series about corporate hell co-starring Spike Jonze and Will Arnett, but we had since chalked it off to wet dream delirium. Cross, who directed and wrote the pilot, had taken note as well, referring to the mediocre cast as a "crazy dream team." Unfortunately, only dear readers in Blighty (and /Film's dearest Brendon) are privy to the entire pilot via the UK's Channel 4. For the rest of...
