Reviews

Latest Review Additions:
  
The Express

The Express does an excellent job of chronicling each of the critical touchstones in the abbreviated life of a role model worthy of emulation


Quarantine

If you are looking for a film that will scare the wits out of you, even briefly, you can't wrong from seeing this one.  It's frightening, gory, and suspenseful.


Rachel Getting Married

‘Rachel Getting Married’ is a poignant and provocative drama that gives insight to hidden emotions within a family.


Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist

A meandering Manhattan travelogue with a payoff worth the wait, some gross moments notwithstanding.
Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist


Ballast

Mississippi Delta Serves as Setting for Monosyllabic Meditation on Gangbanging by Moped


Fireproof

This film exemplifies that God’s word can be effectively conveyed in mainstream ways, even couched as an adventure film. 


IRON MAN(DVD REVIEW)

A ‘Marvel’-ously cerebral superhero with a functioning conscience. 


Nights in Rodanthe

Another sappy soap opera for Nicholas Sparks fans satisfied by panoramic seascapes offset intermittently by lingering interludes of dysfunctional strangers locking lips and loins.


Miracle At St. Anna

At the end of this nearly three hour movie, what you have is a noble attempt thwarted by uneven artistic choices.


Ghost Town

Highlighted by the soulful sounds of Jill Scott, the music helps steer attention
to the film that might otherwise be dismissed in its first half.


Hounddog

Highlighted by the soulful sounds of Jill Scott, the music helps steer attention
to the film that might otherwise be dismissed in its first half.


Lakeview Terrace

A house of cards only stands still if carefully placed, but with ‘Lakeview Terrace’, too many false and quick moves doomed it.


The Duchess

Fine acting, and clever visual and sentimental recreation of life in 18th century England, is bound to make a fan of even those whose typical fare does not include period films.


Burn After Reading

Burn after Reading is a refreshingly-intelligent diversion designed with the more cerebral cineaste in mind.


Diary of a Tired Black Man

Excellent Indie-Flick from Tim Alexander Finally Finds Distribution with Magnolia Pictures


88 Minutes DVD Review

An excessively violent, sloppily-edited, unintentionally funny, overly sentimental affair which has nothing much going for it beyond a snazzy score and some stylized special effects.


THE FAMLY THAT PREYS
(SAME MOVIE DIFFERENT
REVIEW)


The Family That Preys tells a story of friendship, dreams, and betrayal that has universal appeal transcending all class and racial divides.


THE FAMLY THAT PREYS
