Review: “The American”
“The American” is not going to be appreciated by most Americans. It isn’t anti-America, or political in any sense. But it’s paced more slow than we’re used to, there isn’t a lot of dialogue from Clooney’s Mr. Butterfly, and the … Continue reading

“I guess they had it coming.”-The Schofield Kid “We all have it coming, Kid.”-William Munny Clint Eastwood’s 1992 Best Picture/Director/etc Winner definitely earned its awards and critical acclaim. Any conversation I hear about Westerns always concludes by someone saying either, … Continue reading

Review: “The Road”

During a recent illness, I RedBox’ed a bunch of movies to pass the time. “The Wolfman”, “My Life In Ruins”, “When In Rome”, and “The Book of Eli”. They all kept my interest(well… Wolfman came the closest to losing it), … Continue reading
“Inception”: the 2nd time around
When it comes to movies, I, probably like most moviegoers, categorize them subconsciously Do I like this? If no, I never think about it again(Except for “The Mist”, I hate that movie). If I do like a movie, it then … Continue reading
Review: “Moon”

“We all long for reconciliation”-Dom Cobb, protagonist of “Inception”. In a year of movies that are nothing more than sequels, reboots, and based off of books and games, we get an oasis in the middle of a desert of unoriginality. … Continue reading
Review: The Lovely Bones – From James T. Kirk: Sorry, Dr. McCoy, this isn’t a love letter to you.
This is a hard movie for me to recommend for two reasons, the story’s subject is very disturbing and the movie is a little far from coherent. But when I think of a movie with some value to it, I … Continue reading
