Limitless
Limitless is okay, but The Adjustment Bureau is better. So if you’re wavering between the two, stick with TAB and Matt Damon. However, if you’ve already seen TAB and are…

The Adjustment Bureau
Phew, it’s time to come down from the cinematic high horse that is AWARDS SEASON and relish in some movies that are pure escapist fun. The Adjustment Bureau is definitely…
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part One
Okay, I must confess. I’m a rather ignorant muggle when it comes to the Harry Potter franchise. I haven’t read the books, and I don’t think I’ve seen all the…
Hereafter
The trailers and marketing for Hereafter are very misleading. It’s no more a “Matt Damon movie” than Babel was a “Brad Pitt flick”. In fact, until Damon’s character makes an…
Never Let Me Go
Never Let Me Go is another one of those interesting, well-acted and somewhat thought-provoking films that simply fails to float my mainstream boat but is likely to find an appreciative…
Charlie St. Cloud
I see dead people. Or, at least, I see Zac Efron seeing dead people in the fantasy romantic drama Charlie St. Cloud. The movie is part Ghost, part Ghost Whisperer…
Inception
How to describe Inception? It’s like a riddle wrapped inside an enigma that’s all part of a dream that’s made into a movie. If your brain hurts now, just wait…

Summer Movies
Summer is upon us and where are the blockbusters? Here is a list of some of the flix that people will be watching and talking about. Not too much that…
Alice in Wonderland
With his Alice in Wonderland, Tim Burton is back with a film that may look in some ways like one of his others but in a lot of ways is…
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
Terry Gilliam does not make mainstream movies. They are always quirky and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is no exception. Part of the strangeness this time is that (as anyone…
Avatar
I've heard it described as Dances with Aliens and that is a pretty good description, though I think Dances with Wolves had better character development. Avatar tells the story of…
2012
It was a rainy, cold afternoon and just seemed like the perfect day to pop into a warm, dry theater for some mindless entertainment, so I settled on 2012 mainly…
