There are certain movies that we can tell are going to be bad just by watching the trailers, but sometimes circumstances (an insistent date, limited options, writing a review, etc.) dictate that we go see these movies anyway. When that happens, things can go one of two ways: either the movie is plea...
Television Without Pity: The Official TWoP Page We expected more slapstick from this Jim Carrey-Disney collabo, but got... Dickens?
Source: www.televisionwithoutpity.com
Going into Disney's A Christmas Carol, I was expecting a lot of wacky slapstick comedy, because when you put Disney and Jim Carrey together, that's what you get. But even though Jim Carrey provides many of the voices and a lot of the visual inspiration for the characters, there was hardly any wackin...

This film is based on a book, which is based on fact ... or some facts. As the opening slate puts it, "More of this is true than you'd like to believe." However, this fictionalized version of those facts really feels like something that came entirely out of the minds of the Coen brothers, and not ju...

There have been a lot of TV shows based on movies. Some go into development soon after the movie becomes a success. Some, like Eastwick, come out nearly 20 years later. But in the case of 2012, the upcoming John Cusack disaster movie, work has already begun on a follow-up TV series called 2013 -- an...

You know what's almost the same thing as The Fourth Kind only way, way better? The Blair Witch Project. And The Blair Witch Project is terrible. There are so many problems with The Fourth Kind, despite a grand total of two decent jumpy scares, I'm having difficulty organizing them all to present to ...

Precious, the story of an abused, illiterate, impoverished, morbidly obese teen mother looks… difficult to watch, to say the least. We'll suck it up and see it anyway, of course, not just because the movie's getting good reviews and garnering Oscar buzz for Mo'Nique, of all people, but because we...

Picking up where we left off last episode, Jonah, fueled by his jealous rage over finding out Riley kissed Auggie, is still out for drinks at a bar with the film development exec, Kendra. Things progress naturally and Kendra eventually leans in to kiss Jonah, who doesn't stop her right away. ...

It's hard to forget Milla Jovovich. With her piercing eyes and model looks, she stands out in most of her films, and has actually played a slew of memorable roles, from her Return to the Blue Lagoon roots to the star-making The Fifth Element to the epically dull The Messenger to the flashy, nonsensi...

In Disney's new, animated version of Dickens' A Christmas Carol Jim Carrey plays a half-dozen roles, including Ebenezer Scrooge at all stages of his life and the Ghosts of Christmases Past, Present and Yet to Come. And while Carrey has a reputation as a rubber-faced actor, the computer-generated cha...

Yesterday, they finally announced who would be hosting the Academy Awards ceremony next year, after it was revealed that Hugh Jackman would not return following last year's show-stopping performance. And the lucky host is... Alec Baldwin. And Steve Martin. Both of them. Because... it's... uh... huh?...

As superfluous and Jim Carrey-indulgent as Disney's new A Christmas Carol is, it actually looks pretty visually impressive, so it certainly can't be the worst one ever made. We've found some Christmas Carols that were made for about 40 dollars and the cost of Leslie Nielsen's travel; this thing i...

It seems like the entire cast of Battlestar Galactica has guest-starred on one show or another, so when we heard that Naveen Andrews -- who plays Sayid Jarrah on Lost -- would be making a guest appearance on Law & Order: SVU in January, we were psyched. After all, the Losties don't do a lot of guest...

In the movie The Box, cash-strapped Cameron Diaz and James Marsden get offered a million dollars just to push one little button. The catch is that someone they don't know will die. Of course, this gets out of hand -- as per usual in these sorts of thrillers -- but it got us thinking about the mor...

The relaunch of the alien invasion drama V on ABC has brought together an exciting group of our favorite TV actors: Lost's Elizabeth Mitchell as a Homeland Security agent, Firefly's Alan Tudyk as her partner, his former co-star Morena Baccarin as head alien Anna and Smallville's Laura Vandervoort as...

The lizard people are here! And it's... kind of exciting, I guess! Truth be told, it took me days to get through the pilot because I kept getting bored, but by the end I suppose I was glad I soldiered through it. I'm certainly glad Elizabeth Mitchell and Scott Wolf have jobs, so that's something. In...
