Rise of the Planet of the Apes is one of the finest entries of the summer, features a phenomenal performance by Andy Serkis, and features some of the most impressive special effects integration from WETA yet.
Read more "Film Review: Rise of the Planet of the Apes"Your Highness is a solid fantasy film throwback that also happens to be quite funny as it lovingly sends up the genres heyday of the 80’s. I worded that opening pitch to emphasize that I think you should view this film as a throwback fantasy film first and a comedy a close second. That is […]
Read more "Review: Your Highness"Hearing the story of Aron Ralston may not be one of those memorable moments that you will remember for the rest of your life, as in the “Where were you when the Twin Towers fell?” sort of way, but I can definitely remember the shock with hints of nausea I felt when hearing that a […]
Read more "Still Playing Review – 127 Hours"127 Hours is an intense and inventive telling of Aron Ralston’s harrowing true story that Danny Boyle makes the most out of a rather limited film experience.

Liz Gilbert isn’t happy in life and when she decides she can’t take it any more she […]
Read more "Review: Eat Pray Love"If Date Night were a blind date between you and another person (as opposed to what, I don’t know) then I would say that the date is going pretty well.

Read more "Now Playing Review – Date Night"Date Night works by pairing two comedy greats together, letting them do what they do best, fills the supporting cast with some great actors, and doesn’t drag at all over its crisp runtime.

Read more "Review: Date Night"Gus Van Sant’s latest is another great film for the director and is one of the best biopics in recent memory.
