Title: Angels Crest Director: Gaby Dellal Starring: Thomas Dekker, Lynn Collins, Mira Sorvino, Jeremy Piven, Kate Walsh, Elizabeth McGovern, Joseph Morgan A description or listing of all the recombinant parts of drama “Angels Crest” runs the risk of making it sound more interesting than it actually is. An adaptation of a missing-child novel by Leslie Schwartz, director Gaby Dellal’s wintry indie is a not very subtle and generally unpersuasive stab at tapestral grief-as-elegy. If cinematic skill lies partially in making an audience feel things they’ve felt before, but in new and different ways, “Angels Crest” is a highlighted, underlined, out-of-date textbook, dogmatic about its presentation, no matter how overly familiar it…

Title: Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World Directed by: Robert Rodriguez Starring: Jessica Alba, Jeremy Piven and Joel McHale Running time: 89 minutes, PG, Available on standard DVD and 3D A retired spy gets called back into her old job when her nemesis Tick Tock escapes from prison to help an evil mastermind named The Timekeeper, just as she is getting used to new mommyhood and bonding with her two stepchildren. I am not a fan of the Spy Kids series, in fact I still think Spy Kids 3:Game Over is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.  Spy Kids 4 doesn’t make me want…

Title: I Melt With You Directed By: Mark Pellington Starring: Thomas Jane, Jeremy Piven, Rob Lowe, Christian McKay, Carla Gugino, Arielle Kebbel, Tom Bower In an industry overflowing with content, it’s getting tougher and tougher to come up with something new. The fallback? The shock factor – writers and directors giving you something, letting you get comfortable with it and then pulling out the rug from under you. Sure, if this technique works, it could blow your mind, but, in the case of I Melt With You, it merely turns your mind into senseless mush. You know that old “this is your brain on drugs” commercial with the egg? Change…

He can’t spill the beans on the in-the-works “Entourage” movie, but fans will still be seeing plenty of Jeremy Piven in the time it takes for his character, Ari Gold, to wind his way to the big screen. The actor’s latest film, available on VOD and hitting big screens this week, is Mark Pellington’s “I Melt With You,” the story of four wildly disillusioned old college friends (including Rob Lowe, Thomas Jane and Christian McKay) who reunite for an annual summer bacchanal, and start to entertain a suicide pact from their teenage years. Piven plays Ron, a financial services hotshot facing impending ruin stemming from corruption and fraud charges. ShockYa had a chance to…

Title: Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D Movie Review Director: Robert Rodriguez Starring: Jessica Alba, Joel McHale, Jeremy Piven, Rowan Blanchard, Mason Cook, Alexa Vega, Daryl Sabara, Ricky Gervais (voice) What is 4D? A marketing ploy that smells fishy (amongst other things). Spy Kids: All the Time in the World is the 4th installment in the franchise that debuted ten years ago, spawning annual sequels. For whatever reason, writer/director Robert Rodriguez decided to chill for eighty years before unleashing the next chapter. Guess he was just waiting for that important “4th dimension” technology to catch up with 3D. The 4D is nothing more than a scratch-n-sniff…
