GOOD NEIGHBORS Blu-ray Review

by Scott Wampler    Posted: October 22nd, 2011 at 8:06 am

In all likelihood, you’ve never even heard of Jacob Tierney’s Good Neighbors, and if you have, it’s probably because you’ve heard that the film features Jay Baruchel (who generally appears in films playing characters that can best be described as “a real-life Professor Frink from The Simpsons”) in a rare (somewhat) dramatic role.  Or maybe you’re a Scott Speedman megafan, and the film ended up on your radar that way.  Doesn’t matter.  Point is, we’re talking about Good Neighbors now, and if you’ll join me after the jump, I’ll tell you why the film’s worth a rental (if not a purchase).

Tokyo International Film Festival Wrap-up

by David Corbin    Posted: October 25th, 2009 at 7:14 pm

The Tokyo International Film Festival closed today with a screening of “Cranky Grandfather ‘s Flying House.” After the Japanese premiere of Pixar’s “Up” was over it was time for the awards. Similarly to the opening events, the closing ceremony was efficient and to the point. No drawn out speeches, stilted jokes or time wasted. Sadly, however, there was no Hugh Jackman either. And while the absence of the sexiest Aussie this side of Naomi Watts was keenly felt, the awards went off with out a hitch. Highlight of the night-the winning film in the environmentally themed competition winning a Green Globe. And said enviro-competition being sponsored by a car company, Toyota. For the full awards rundown and a mini-review of the Tokyo Sakura Grand Prix winning film hit the jump.
