Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
I feel like I almost have to say that since this is Harry Potter – it’s not bad, no matter what criticisms I have. They’re always well produced, they’re working from good source material, the

Unstoppable
In some ways Unstoppable is a simple movie – simple plot, handful of characters in a few locations. But a movie doesn’t have to be vast or complicated to be good. You know what they say

I sat around yesterday trying to figure Inception out, trying to write
