The companion piece to the best documentary I’ve ever seen. I was floored by Joshua Oppenheimer’s documentary The Act Of Killing. Not only was it a fabulous and provocative film it really did change the way that I looked at violence and the world we live in. Returning to that subject is brave of Oppenheimer…
A smart horror/comedy that starts off strong but loses steam later in the film. The setup is well done and the characters are well established. There are a decent amount of scares and some good laughs, but with most horror comedies it struggles to find the right balance and at times seems to get in…
There’s a plot in this movie somewhere and Paul Thomas Anderson dares you to find it. But in looking for it you’ll miss the unique performances, the outstanding music and authentic feel of the film. Don’t get too wrapped up in it and just go along for the trippy ride. I haven’t seen a PTA…
Another solid entry in a series that has seriously exceeded my expectations. Mockingjay starts a little slow in catching the audience up on all of the events but falls into the rhythm that the previous films have done so well. Jennifer Lawrence is once again so strong as Katniss and I can’t wait to find…
This is such a disappointment of a horror film and even using that term seems dubious. A documentary style shot film that deals with true events and rumors and legends to set a tone that’s supposed to be eerie but really sets no tone at all. We’re supposed to be left in the dark about…
Kurt Cobain, whether he liked it or not, was the voice of a generation. In Brett Morgen’s documentary Kurt Cobain: Montage Of Heck, we’re allowed never before access to Cobain’s family videos, writings, drawings and a chance to make some sense of a man whose brilliance cannot be questioned and whose suicide was a tragedy.…
A black and white family comedy that hits home for me seeing how my whole family is from the state and I have such vivid memories of being there and growing up. This movie boasts standout performances, one after another. Bruce Dern and June Squibb really steal this film but Will Forte holds it all…
A solid horror movie that plays with the original film in such a unique and creative way. Part slasher film, part homage, part investigation, this movie really kept me interested though the ending left a little to be desired. Probably a more enjoyable experience if you’re able to watch the original 1976 version first and…
Well I liked this movie..I can’t really tell you exactly what happened, but I liked it. I need to watch it again and watch it much more carefully and anyone who wants to give it a shot I’d love to see what you think. Another fantastic by Jake Gyllenhaal whose choice of roles and strong…
Anthology movies are a little hard to review but this one was pretty easy. 26 short horror films and most aren’t worth your time. A few standouts but most were either too short to really make an impact or strange for the sake of being strange. There’s an ABC’s Of Death 2 but after this…
