Will It Fall? The Final Shot of Inception (Spoilers)

So obviously Lauren and I (Check out our reviews first; Lauren’s and Zac’s) think Inception is a pretty swell movie. Lauren has picked it as her best picture favorite and it seems to be a lock Top 5 for me as well. But we both agree that the final shot of the film is easily the biggest […]

Now Playing Review – Inception

I remember reading something once when I was younger about the possibility of being able to control what happens in your dreams.

Now Playing Review – The Sorcerer’s Apprentice

When I originally heard that Disney was planning on making a feature length film based on the segment from the 1940s film Fantasia I was a little skeptical.

Rental Review – The Crazies (2010)

A few years back a couple of my friends and I took a trip to our respective hometowns, and upon arriving in Iowa I made the mistake of saying that it smelled like poo, to which I got an immediate retort full of aggression. You may not guess it based on the stagnate setting, but […]
