Film Review: Cloud Atlas

Cloud Atlas is a fantastic piece of audacious and exhilarating filmmaking that is unlike just about anything you have ever seen in a movie theater.

Movie Review: Cloud Atlas

The Wachowski’s return to the big screen with Cloud Atlas – a movie with an incredible premise that should be able to hold together a three hour movie. However, some of the acting and writing makes for a more frustrating film than a philosophical one.

Film Review: Arbitrage

Arbitrage is a solid thriller with a great performance by Richard Gere that will entertain from start to finish.

Review: The Lovely Bones

Peter Jackson’s latest adaptation is visually stunning but feels like a cliff notes version of the novel and on its own right doesn’t go deep enough into these characters relationships and feelings to connect us as emotionally as possible with the rich material.

Review: Enchanted

First off, Amy Adams is magnificent, cute, brilliant, and adorable, any positive adjective for performing could be filled in here.
