'The Expendables 2' Poster: Just Call It 'EX2'
I don't have any belief that The Expendables 2 is likely to be the movie I hope it will be. After the first movie, I'm not even convinced that this sequel is fated to be a solid action movie. But magic can happen. While we wait to see any footage from the movie that Simon…

'Immortals' Review: Big Dumb Blood, Sweat And Beauty
Immortals is a flagrantly artificial, insanely violent film. 'Insanely' violent because minutes at a time pass where the frame is filled with nothing but graphically split bodies and crushingly brutal combat, with no point beyond the arresting visual of digital viscera in slow motion. But the director of Immortals, Tarsem, who also made The Cell…

In Gela Babluani's film 13 Tzameti, a young man lands in the weirdest game of Russian roulette ever held.
