What will you watch this weekend at the movies? Maybe a better question would be – what’s worth watching this weekend?

Colin Farrel Playing Ozzy in the New Ozzy Osbourne Movie

Yeah it’s been revealed that there’s a Ozzy Osbourne movie coming out which is complete news to me. What’s even more news is who is playing Ozzy in the film biography of Ozzy Osbourne.

There is no Plan B: Bradley Cooper, Liam Neeson, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Sharlto Colpley love it when a plan comes together. PHOTO: 20th Century Fox “The A-Team” is an absolutely ridiculous and silly movie! Based on the equally silly TV show of the same name, this big-budgeted adaptation boasts action scenes so flabbergasting they’d feel at home in “Star Wars.” Hell, I don’t even think “Star... Read More →
