Gore Verbinski
Film Review: ‘A Cure For Wellness’ Provides a Much-Needed Temporary Fix
Submitted by JonHC on February 17, 2017 - 12:56pmCHICAGO – Gore Verbinski is no stranger to the spooky. He always creates these tense, terror-filled scenes that effectively frighten us. His films, from “Ring” to “Rango”, each are compelling enough to keep our attention, not matter how absurd they transform into. Boy, does he ever deliver in the gorgeously grotesque “A Cure for Wellness.”

Blu-ray Review: ‘The Ring’ Remake Initially Frightens Before Going in Circles
Submitted by mattmovieman on April 3, 2012 - 8:54amCHICAGO – I have a certain begrudging affection for Gore Verbinski’s 2002 remake of Hideo Nakata’s 1998 thriller, “Ringu,” despite the fact that I know in my heart of hearts that it doesn’t really work. Verbinski’s film falters precisely when it should be at its scariest, and yet it still has enough memorably eerie moments to inspire at least a couple sleepless nights.

Blu-Ray Review: Johnny Depp Gets Animated in Confident ‘Rango’
Submitted by BrianTT on July 25, 2011 - 11:58amCHICAGO – There’s a rare level of artistic confidence in “Rango” that we usually don’t see outside of Pixar. What I mean by that is that SO many animated flicks that I have to suffer through in a calendar year are trying to appease a marketing plan, a producer, a focus group, etc. “Rango,” while being a bit overrated by some, is undeniably unique in its vision and trying only to appease that creativity. It’s an occasionally inspired film that looks stunning in HD and is accompanied by some stellar special features.
