HST… Film Review: Snow White and the Huntsman

Zac: Snow White and the Huntsman (#SWATH, love that hashtag) is the second take on the classic Grimm fairy tale to be released this year and it is a visual feast that could have used a bit more plot and character development.

Film Review: Sound of My Voice

Sound of My Voice is phase two of Brit Marling’s rise as the new indie film it girl and if this film is any signal she is destined for far more than that.

HST… Film Review: Battleship

Lauren: I have to admit something right now, as a child I got really competitive when it came to Battleship. Each time I would swear I came up with the best distribution for my ships to trick my opponent, and would gleefully laugh in my mind when I would get to put a white peg […]

Film Review: The Avengers

The Avengers have finally assembled for Marvel and it was more than worth the wait as Joss Whedon has delivered one of the best comic book films to date.
