“The Last Airbender’” swept into theaters July 1 with a large marketing campaign costing $280 million.

Despite grossing about $70 million in its first five days, the movie is a flop.

Overall, the movie is not that impressive, and leaves viewers with a sense of disappointment and wishing for their money back.

Take all the best parts of every slasher movie you can think of, throw in some teddy bears and the result is “Naughty Bear,” the hilariously macabre game released June 28 for PlayStation3.

The gamer plays the titular character, Naughty Bear, a teddy who’s tired of being made fun of and ignored by other bears on Paradise Island.

In retaliation, Naughty takes a butcher knife and sets out to slit his happy neighbor bears’ throats or tries to drive them insane.

Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz (Tim Allen) and the rest of the “Toy Story” crew returned to the big screen after 10 years, released June 30 in “Toy Story 3.”

The animation is cutting edge and is the best of the latest 3-D genre. Even without the IMAX 3-D experience, the film is in-depth and real.

“Success is uncommon and not to be enjoyed by the common man,” coach Cal Stoll told the young college bound Tony Dungy and the rest of his University of Minnesota football teammates when faced with the reality of working in the game of life.

“I’m looking for uncommon people because we want to be successful, not average,” Stoll said.

Those few words of advice caused Dungy to start paving his own way to fulfilling his purpose in life and gives readers a detailed account of what it took for him to get there in his 2006 memoir, “Quiet Strength.”

The New York Times bestseller chronicles a man eager to share his story from working as a staff coach on a football team to becoming the first black head coach to win a Super Bowl.

“Grown Ups,” Adam Sandler’s latest addition to his empire of stupid comedies, is projected to be a shoe-in for the 2010 Raspberry Awards for worst picture.

It’s a very bad film, but its only redeeming feature is an important one: it’s hilarious.

Dennis Dugan directed the film, and he specializes in the realm of the stupid, with films such as “Problem Child” and “Happy Gilmore” under his belt.

Americans who are familiar with “The Office” may be unaware that it is a direct copy of a British sitcom on BBC.

The hit starring Steve Carell is a direct spinoff of a 14-episode British series from the mind of comic geniuses Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant.

But which is better, the British or American version?

Although the American version is certainly funny, the British version takes its cringe-worthy, uncomfortable and dry wit to a new level.

The Rolling Stones has recently re-released their 1972 masterpiece “Exile on Main Street.” The reissue of the classic album is a triumphant romp which is guaranteed to put the rock and the roll into any occasion.

Improving on this masterpiece is a hard task, but somehow the new version seems to be even more raw and irreverent than the original.

The reissue offers 10 additional tracks to the already abundant 18 original tracks. Adding 10 additional tracks to this classic album may seem like adding extra brush strokes to the Mona Lisa for some fans.

Almost 25 years after the end of the hit TV series of the same name, “The A-team” makes the leap to the silver screen.

Filled with laughs, machine guns and a lot of explosions, this 117-minute PG-13 homage to the classic 1980s show is a must see for the whole family.

Directed by Joe Carnahan, the movie opens with a bit of the team’s history and how it got together.

Then the story moves quickly into the base plot of the old show.

The team members are set up to take the fall for a crime, escape prison, and sets out to right the wrong and clear their names.

The team consists of tactical genius Hannibal Smith (Liam Neeson), clinically insane pilot H.M. “Howling Mad” Murdoch (Sharlto Copley), strong man and mechanic Bosco “B.A.” Baracus (Quinton “Rampage” Jones) and con man and womanizer Templeton “Face” Peck (Bradley Cooper).

“Red Dead Redemption” is the latest massive adventure game from Rockstar games, the makers of the “Grand Theft Auto” series.

If any game deserves a bandwagon of cheering fans, it’s this one. Simply put, “Red Dead Redemption” is awesomeness incarnate.

The main storyline follows the reformed gunslinger John Marston whose family has been incarcerated by a government agency as leverage to force him to hunt down the leader of his former gang.

But that is far from all the story has to offer.

The latest Anita Blake novel, “Bullet,” combines a fluid writing style with non-stop action. Packed with sex, violence and magic, Anita’s latest adventure is the perfect summer read.

Released June 1 in hardcover format, “Bullet” is 356 pages long. The novel can be found at most major booksellers, such as Barnes & Noble.

Retail price is $26.95, but the book can be purchased for less on Amazon.com or at Walmart.

Continuing the story begun in the last book, “Skin Trade,” Anita and her master Jean-Claude begin taking steps to defend the American vampires against the old European council, whose members have seemingly gone insane.

The book moves swiftly, tying up loose ends from the previous 18 books, and setting up the series for a new set of stories and twists.
