Rating: 4.25 of 5 Marvel’s Phase Two shows obvious signs of being post-Avengers. And not just in the characters and the ramifications they have to deal with (Tony Stark, perhaps most of all) but in the studio and writers and directors who have seen what a Joss Whedon superhero movie is and now have to be . . . → Read More: Iron Man 3 
Rating: 3.75 of 5 I don’t think anyone would deny that Quentin Tarantino is a talented filmmaker. He also has a style so when you go to one of his movies you pretty much know what you’re getting yourself into. So, I can’t say that Django Unchained surprised me, especially after seeing the panel at Comic . . . → Read More: Django Unchained 
Rating: 3.5 of 5 This is a harder movie to review than it should be. Because Robert Downey Jr. is incredibly sharp and entertaining. He pulls off the eccentric but brilliant character with a flare that seems realistic however stylized it is. Jude Law as Watson is a strong enough counterpoint to ground Sherlock and make . . . → Read More: Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows 
Rating: 4.25 of 5 Peter Jackson is not Tolkien. I know I’m stating the obvious there but after seeing The Hobbit I’m not sure Peter Jackson is aware of this fact. He’s a talented filmmaker, to be sure; dedicated and visionary and able to produce amazing, epic films. But he isn’t the storyteller Tolkien was . . . → Read More: The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey 
Rating: 2.5 of 5 I have to admit, I guess from the top, that I’ve never seen the original Red Dawn. But I actually didn’t think this movie was half bad. I mean, it was pretty clear from the trailer that this wasn’t going to be a great film. Good trailer, but without much substance to . . . → Read More: Red Dawn 
Rating: 3.25 of 5 When the two Snow White movies were coming out last year, I was curious about both. Mostly I thought Snow White and the Huntsman would be the more enjoyable (though I wasn’t sure about Kristen Stewart) and I thought Mirror, Mirror would be more laughable because I don’t have a lot of . . . → Read More: Mirror, Mirror 
Rating: 3 of 5 I don’t even know what to say. And it’s not because I was shocked by the twist ending because I was surprised at how it manifest itself but I was also expecting something. spoiler »As soon as Jasper died I knew it wasn’t real. I mean, maybe they could get away with . . . → Read More: The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 
Rating: 3.5 of 5 Argo is one of those hard movies to analyze because a lot of things were really well done without having a significant impact, at least on me. Everyone always raves about period pieces – the dramatic costumes, the make up or sets or whatever it takes to make us believe we’re in . . . → Read More: Argo 
Rating: 4 of 5 There are so many things I want to say about Looper I don’t even know where to start. The thing about good movies is that you can analyze them inside and out. You can draw out narrative parallels that maybe were or were not actually intended. You can talk in circles about . . . → Read More: Looper 
Rating: 3 of 5 Maybe I don’t watch enough dramas, but Trouble with the Curve feels a little like a more traditional sports movie, like from the 80s and 90s. The kind that don’t exist anymore. Maybe it’s because it has all the elements of an old school sports movie (like I knew exactly how it . . . → Read More: Trouble with the Curve |
