The Big Lebowski Online Shopping Guide

Somebody once asked me, “What do you do when you’re not blogging?” I replied, “Oh, the usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback.” This quote from The Big Lebowski was completely lost on the person asking the question. Instead of laughing, he said, “Oh, I see” with a tone of disapproval. So, the [...]

Shutter Island Review

The psychological thriller Shutter Island had big-name power in its corner with Leonardo DiCaprio starring and Martin Scorsese directing. DiCaprio proves again that he’s arguably the best actor in Hollywood with awesome camera presence and the ability to truly make you believe – in a word, he’s passionate about what he does.
When Scorsese and DiCaprio [...]

Spread Movie Review

I have to admit. I had low expectations for this movie. Ashton Kutcher playing a pretty boy in L.A., bedding cougar-aged women for their money? It was hard not to be cynical about the premise considering the art-imitates-life backstory. Yet, as it turns out I was pleasantly surprised.
Sure, there is absolutely nothing original about the [...]

Adventureland Movie Review

Adventureland is flat-out one of the most sincere, honest movies I’ve seen in years. I don’t even know how to start this review without gushing since Adventureland satisfies almost every bias I have for a good movie: a summer that changes everything, the 80s, an amazing soundtrack, and Ryan Reynolds. I’m almost kidding about the [...]

New York, I Love You Movie Review

What do you get when you throw stock clips of New York City, stereotypical New Yorker storylines, and A-list actors looking for some street cred, into a blender? “New York, I Love You” the second installment in producer Emmanuel Benbihy’s series, each an homage to a major city. Or, a 110-minute refresher course in every [...]

Sunshine Cleaning Movie Review

Lately it feels like every other movie I watch stars Amy Adams. I’m not sure if it’s because every other movie actually DOES in fact star Amy Adams or if it’s because Netflix bought stock in her career: as soon as I finished watching Sunshine Cleaning, they suggested I watch Doubt. Starring Amy Adams.
As it [...]

Reeker Movie Review

I’ve recently (just now) come to the conclusion that the perfect time to watch horror movies is Saturday afternoon. Indulging in the mindless, yet satisfying, entertainment provided by groups of people getting systematically eliminated by a mysterious killer somehow feels like the logical evolution from watching Saturday morning cartoons as a kid.
But as it happens [...]

Avatar Movie Review

Put the name James Cameron on a movie and the world takes notice, and for good reason. The crafty Canadian has produced such colossal hits such as Terminator 2, and Titanic. Avatar is a worthy addition to this collection.
Set aside all the hype and reviews from the other critics. Here are a [...]

Funny People Movie Review

What happens when funny people try to make a funny movie about being unfunny? This movie: a serious, uncomfortable meditation on death and “the one that got away.” Funny People generates a handful of laughs and leaves you feeling like you just had a really depressing conversation with your best friend.
Adam Sandler stars as a [...]

Our Top 10 Favorite Romantic Comedies Of All Time

Wikipedia some-what accurately and some-what arbitrarily says, “Romantic comedy films are movies with light-hearted, humorous plotlines, centered on romantic ideals such as a true love able to surmount most obstacles. Romantic comedy films are a sub-genre of comedy films as well as of romance films and often have elements of screwball comedies and stoner comedies.” [...]

Vicky Cristina Barcelona Movie Review

First, an embarrassing confession: I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Woody Allen movie. No, not even Annie Hall or Manhattan. But after getting my first taste with Vicky Cristina Barcelona, one can rest assured that my Netflix queue was updated accordingly. VCB was an enjoyable movie on many levels and I can’t wait to [...]

Zombieland Movie Review

In the comedy horror flick Zombieland the majority of humans have been infected by a virus that turns everyone into flesh-craving zombies. Of the humans that remain is Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg (Roger Dodger, The Village), a student at the University of Texas trying to make his way to his home town of Columbus, OH, where [...]
