Reviews

Latest Review Additions:
  
Holla DVD review (in Film)

This well-conceived mystery cleverly conceals which person is behind the series of slashings.

Things We Lost from the Fire (in Film)

The subsequent sequence of events presented by this implausible melodrama unfolds more like a TV soap opera than a drama you’d expect to see in full-length feature.

Home of the Brave DVD (in Film)

Home of the Brave handles a serious subject with all the subtlety of a superficial John Wayne World War II flick.

Transformers DVD (in Film)

This flick gets this critic’s seal of approval for convincingly animating a cornucopia of robots in overblown epic battles worthy of a bombastic Michael Bay blockbuster

TYLER PERRY'S WHY DID I GET MARRIED? (in Film)

“Why Did I Get Married?” is a very enlightening, romantic, emotional, uplifting, and universal film that should please all. It's Perry's best film to date.

Michael Clayton (in Film)

If there was a film where you wanted to see that was intense, well executed, and well acted, ‘Michael Clayton’ is it. Sharply written, Tony Gilroy has made one hell of good film for his directorial debut.

The Heartbreak Kid (in Film)

An unwatchable mess like this is exactly what you ought to expect from anybody with the unmitigated gall to overhaul Neil Simon.

Feel the Noise(in Film)

Fairly formulaic in most respects, the picture otherwise unfolds innocuously enough to stomach as a Latin version of the ghetto fabulous blaxploits

In The Valley of Elah (in Film)

Haggis’ moral and political message is a lot more subtle and with the abundance of truth about the consequences of post traumatic stress disorder, undeniably uncontroversial.

The Good Night (in Film)

The film becomes blurred between reality and illusion, and it takes too much effort on the audience’s part to decipher what is real and what is not.

Desert Bayou (in Film)

A damning documentary which exposes FEMA’s wholesale failings while depicting a nation still deep in denial and willing to look the other way.

The Girl Next Door (in Film)

This gruesome screen version paints a super-realistic picture that’s so relentlessly-disturbing it’s likely to trigger debate as to whether the filmmaker might have left too little to the imagination.

The Kingdom (in Film)

The Kingdom is a combination flick, part psychological thriller, part pyrotechnic spectacular, which works somehow despite considerable conceptual flaws.

The Darjeeling Limited (in Film)

Though his films are all unique they still have his stylistic touch. His characters are flawless in the way that they are full of flaws.

 

Bordertown (in Film)

Every once and a while a film that educates is as good as a film that entertains, and this film, despite its difficult subject matter succeeds in doing both.

 

Outsourced (in Film)

Engaging, unpredictable, hilarious and entertaining at every turn, this charming romantic romp offers all you could ever ask of a modern cross-cultural comedy.

 

Knocked Up DVD (in Film)

A coarse yet curiously charming battle-of-the-sexes comedy which offsets lowbrow humor with enough convincingly tenderhearted moments to make for a picture with universal
appeal.

 

We Are Marshall DVD (in Film)

The satisfaction it delivers doesn’t emanate from a cliché victory scene, but from an assortment of touching tableaus every step of the way along the painful healing process.

 

Gracie DVD (in Film)

A heartwarming family flick loosely based on events which transpired in the lives of the picture’s writer/producer Andrew Shue and his co-producer sister, Elisabeth.

 

The Brave One(in Film)

Although the film is credible to a certain point, it loses its focus towards the ends and becomes another contrived film filled with more action and less substance.

 

Across The Universe (in Film)

Taymor used close to 30 plus well-known Beatles tunes and still make it a disjointed film, although one could love it despite the ill-conceived plot.
