SubscribeWow, this movie is intense! If you have kids, you will be so tense, sad and just riveted. I found this film incredible. I couldn’t stop thinking about it. The acting by Viggo Mortense as The Father and Kodi Smit-McPhee as The Son is remarkable. The cinematography spectacular. This film takes place in a post-apocalyptic...
A very nice movie. Embodies some great performances, especially from Carey Mulligan as Jenny and Alfred Molina as her father. I was not too impressed with Peter Sarsgaard’s David though. I don’t know if it was his paunch that turned me off or the fact that the chemistry between David and Jenny felt icky and...
Alright, I was nervous to go see this on my own as I scare real easy, so it took a couple of weeks to get a date. Unfortunately and fortunately it wasn’t that scary. Yeah that creepy lady with the 5 hairs on her creepy skull and English rotten teeth from the trailers is in...
Get ready for the ride of your life. Your emotions will be on the rebel yell for a while…..the duration of the movie to be exact. Funny, dramatic, violent, enlightening, violent, dramatic, funny, enlightening. The story follows the life and times of Jesco White (played here by Edward Hogg), “the dancing outlaw”, from reform school...
Well, this is not the feel good movie of the new decade. Precious is harsh to say the least. Just when you think things are starting to look up for Precious shit just gets worse. I was so angry by the shit going down in this film I couldn’t even cry. I gotta say I...
This movie spans three locations (worldwide) and intimately captures the global issues that seep into the modern human’s basic condition. From my understanding, we are all either too success obsessed, too self involved, too daft, too blind to see what is before us, around us. A successful New York couple try and balance their professional...
The Hurt Locker is a very different sort of war movie. There is not one particular battle that needs to take place. There is no love story, no soldier to find, no one enemy to find and kill, etc. I think that’s what makes it unique. The docu style shooting also makes the experience...
The Lovely Bones is a fantastic novel. Alice Sebold constructed an intricate story with deep characters in such an unusual way that to translate that onto film would be a difficult task. Unfortunately for me, this Peter Jackson adaptation loses the depth that is present in the book. The story centers around the Salmon family...
Just the mention of the title should make you break out into a sweat! Lord have mercy on me for watching this catastrophe of a movie. When I say this, I mean it in both positive and negative light. Catastrophes leave people broken, unyielding and sometimes, they are left with hope. This movie left me...
Alright, the holidays are rife with movie material. Families reunite for food, drink, laughs and drama. Here is a list of my top 5 Thanksgiving flicks. The Ice Storm: one word: SWINGERS! Pieces of April: Back when she was just Katie Holmes, sweet flick and Patricia Clarkson rocks it of course! The House...
