F. Gary Gray is the Manny Pacquiao of filmmaking. Small and spry, just when you think you’ve got him figured out, he cold cocks you with a total knockout. The man who was able to make Mini Coopers bad ass in The Italian Job is back with Law Abiding Citizen, a thriller that is almost entirely contained yet stunningly visceral. With a nod to Silence of the Lambs, Gray continues his oeuvre of creating brilliantly winning yet decidedly corrupt heroes.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

This spells trouble.

Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx, two of Hollywood’s most notorious lady killers, are shooting a movie together in Philadelphia.

Mayor Nutter (that’s ironic) welcomed Foxx, Butler, and the film’s director F. Gary Gray to Philadelphia to shoot the psychological thriller Law Abiding Citizen by presenting them with a Liberty Bell, the official gift of the city.

Ladies of Philly, the Booty Brigade has arrived!

It’s time to stock up on Trojans, Valtrex and Astroglide in the City of Brotherly Love.

Law Abiding Citizen See It or Skip It

The Boys Are Back See It or Skip It

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Jennifer's Body See it or Skip it

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

See It or Skip It: World's Greatest Dad

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
