Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has had a very successful, if not uneven run in Hollywood. Rampage seemed to please casual movie goers well enough, even if it did not win over critics. We are kicking off Video Game Month II with one of the more bizarre adaptations made so far. Does the monster mayhem satisfy? Is Jeffrey Dean Morgan criminally underrated? Is the world ready for another Shane Black movie? We investigate all of these questions and more.

Not only does this movie feature a young boy that can talk to dead people, but it released within months of The Sixth Sense. After a disappointing run at the box office and a slew of unfavorable comparisons, Stir of Echoes has quietly slipped into obscurity. Today we take a second look at the Pepsi of 1999 ghost movies to find what it actually does well! Kevin Bacon is shirtless, the ghosts are spooky, and Kevin Dunn shows up for the second time this month.

The Illusionist was a moderately successful and well reviewed film about a magician. The only problem was it released in the same year as The Prestige, a movie with not one but TWO magicians, and a much higher budget. This week we take a second look at the overlooked magic movie starring Edward Norton, Paul Giamatti, and Jessica Biel to find all the things this movie got right!
