In 1996, director Wes Craven introduced the world to a brand new horror classic in the shape of Scream. The movie is a post-modern delight, gleefully making fun of slasher tropes that had accumulated over the years... but it's hard to argue that it's a flawless movie. Need some proof? Give the video below a gander and open your eyes a little wider. CinemaSins has gotten into the Halloween spirit this week by launching a Scream-themed episode of their Everything Wrong With... series, and as you can see from the final count, there are some pretty big problems with the way that the film functions narratively. Truth be told, once you look back on the movie with a full understanding of Billy and Stu's plan and execution, the whole thing doesn't really make a whole ton of sense. The problems are present from the very beginning of the movie, as...

If you're the world's biggest fan of Fifty Shades Of Grey, you probably shouldn't have clicked on this link. That's because the following video is going to tear your favorite movie to shreds. The rest of you, hit the play button below and enjoy! Cinema Sins has come out with the latest episode of their "Everything Wrong With..." series, and while most of these are typically contained under 15 minutes, that simply wasn't enough time for Fifty Shades of Grey. Instead, this movie takes about 18 minutes of beatings, and in the process ranks up one of the biggest sin counters you'll see. So where do we begin talking about all of the flaws in Fifty Shades of Grey? Well, the basic plot of the film is as good a jumping-off point as we'll get, as it's rather amazing just how dull the Sam Taylor-Johnson-directed drama is. When it's all boiled down,...

This week sees the release of the remake of Poltergeist hitting theaters, so now is as good a time as any to reflect back on the 1982 horror classic that inspired it. However, if you have nothing but positive memories about the movie, you may want to turn away now, as this video is going to tear it a new one. CinemaSins has launched the latest episode of its "Everything Wrong With..." series, and this time around they've taken aim at what many consider to be one of the greatest paranormal activity films ever made. There is a point in the video where the narrator admits that Poltergeist really is a fantastic movie, and actually knocks five points off the final sin score as a result, but everything before and after really does point out a lot of big problems in both the narrative and the construction of the film. So...

Famed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson became famous last year for tweet critiquing the scientific inaccuracies of Alfonso Cuaron's "Gravity". Those tweets became fairly well-known and it got to the point that Tyson even voiced the narration on an "Everything Wrong With..." video about that movie.
Whilst he hasn't done a similar video yet for Christopher Nolan's "Interstellar," he has taken to Twitter to dissect "Interstellar" and his reaction has been decidedly more praise-worthy about the film's scientific accuracy. He doesn't touch upon the film's last act though, a section which veers into pure fantasy according to quite a few reviewers. Here's Tyson's tweets on the matter:
Reminder: Never look to me for opinions on new films. All I do is highlight the science one might or might not find in them.
In #Interstellar: They explore a planet near a Black Hole. Personally, I'd stay as far the...
