  • The Creature from the Black Lagoon may be the most unappreciated of the Universal Monsters. He has no real name, he's confined to mostly aquatic settings and his skill set consists mainly of swimming really well. Still, the big lug has his charms. Director Jack Arnold shot the film's underwater scenes with balletic grace, allowing the Creature a certain panache that Frankenstein...

  • When Charles Bradley sings, the promise of something we call America becomes real. That promise may be broken, bleeding, scarred, but it's undeniable. To call the 64-year-old New York native a soul singer is to understate the case.

    03/05/13

    After 2 visits, I don't believe I will return. The first visit was early after opening and food/service were terrible. We were even way over charged for drinks. The second visit was just okay. I had a fish dinner that was okay. My friend had a hamburger that he ordered med rare and it was raw and cold in the middle. Plus it was a little pricey for a burger and fish.

    11/23/12

    We went to City Diner after a show at the Fox Theater tonight. i went ahead of our group to get seats since there were 13 of us. I stood near the hostess desk for a few minutes and the two young ladies working walked past me several times without acknowledging that I was there. After a few minutes of standing there one of them looked at me and said "be with you in...
