“
A documentary that takes a fascinating look into a family's story that is entertaining through its contradictions and format but is, at the same time, actually too personal for me to be fully invested.” read more
“
Robyn (Mia Wasikowska) does her best Australian version of Christopher Mccandless (Into the Wild). Unfortunately the story just isn't terribly compelling, and while there are heartfelt moments, I was never very invested into the character and story. Unlike with 'Into the Wild' I felt li” read more
“
Hilary Swank tries her darnedest to win another Oscar but fails. This is a thankless role, much like her character. What saves it is Tommy Lee Jones' unrestrained performance and nice cinematography.

“
Wahlberg leads a cast far more interesting than he in the ever-frustrating battling life of a 'gambler', although he would suggest otherwise.
At least this role as a teacher is much more successful than the one he attempts in 'The Happening', perhaps his quintessential bad film.” read more
“
A funny but messy road trip comedy. Bateman and McCarthy have great chemistry but there are other unnecessary and unfunny characters involved that take too much focus off of what really makes this movie work. In fact, there were multiple issues with the film's identity, it didn't seem t” read more
Man Who Could Fly and Woman Who Flew with Him

6.8/10
A documentary about pushing the limits on the body, love, and your dreams. Filled with challenging imagery and strange real-life characters.” read more
“The guiltiest of pleasures. This time they're on a roller coaster and this time the ending is quite different.
Where will they go from here?” read more
“
A geriatric film about the end of life and, more so, friendship. Walken, Pacino and Arkin show they can still entertain even with a mediocre production.
The main deterring factor was the rape/woman-in-a-trunk storyline. It was convoluted, insensitive and unnecessary to the s” read more
“One of the first examples of: Just because they use computer graphics and celebrity voices doesn't mean it's good.
They used a lot of family tropes and cliches. The story had potential but never broke out of its mundane existence.
Is it fun? Yes. Is it for the kids and will the” read more
DiCaprio Tries to Take it to 11
“Much better than "An Inconvenient Truth" in the fact that it doesn't insult your intelligence and it inspires the audience to do better for Earth, not just piss us off.” read more
“
Don't fuck with Christine.
This French thriller was entertaining; and the head-to-head battle for love seemed relentless. A much better version than De Palma's 'Passion'.” read more
“
I completely get the appeal to young kids, girls and boys, but few elements translate to decent entertainment for adults. It was rather disappointing, after hearing all the hype.
Turns out the only thing that deserves the hype is the music, and even the music w” read more
A Fantastically Odd Film of Something
“
A fantastically odd piece of absurd circumstance. Beautifully filmed and staged, this one may lag in the second act but comes back strong.” read more
“
An extensive look into the Chinese wine market and their new obsession with Bordeaux, narrated by... the Aussie, Russell Crowe?
I enjoyed the arc of this story and the cinematography even if they seemed to run out of aerial shots because they were often repeated.” read more
“
I have an issue with writers and directors starring in their own movie where they have sex with a bounty of beautiful women, including Scarlett Johansson. It's very egoist and obnoxious enough to take me out of the story.
Luckily for Levitt, Tony Danza, Glenne Headly, Brie Lars” read more
