Going the Distance

Best romantic-comedy since 27 Dresses

True Grit

Excellent. Satisfying. A classic western written smartly, acted sharply and shot surely.

Tangled

A LOT of fun. Beautiful, funny, sweet, clever and exciting.

Tiny Furniture

This film is provocative and groundbreaking.
The director, writer and lead actor disappears into her fresh introspective: one of modern women, family, post-education, identity and where we want to be.
Exquisite cinematography, satisfying dialogue, surprising acting and a brand new genre. See it on the big screen if you can.

Meet Joe Black

I can't describe it exactly.

Brad Pitt calls it a symphony.

I agree.

And...

I love it.

From Paris with Love

Want some action? This one's fun!

Bad Boys (1983)

Early, extraordinary, young, raw, real, good Sean Penn.

Fair Game

It's a biopic. I'm not a big biopic fan. True stories don't pack enough of a dramatic punch.
Naomi Watts' work is maturing nicely.
It is Sean Penn that is worth the price of admission to this pic. His work is excellent.

Songcatcher

I don't remember a movie that reminded me of more.

It's fun to hear where old ballads participated in blues music. (And I love that it's portrayed by David Patrick Kelly -- "Warriors ...??!!"

Songcatcher is a great music/cinema connoisseur's movie.

Looking forward,

The Killer Inside Me

A look at the descencion of man. This film is so hypnotic.

Casey Afflec is incredible.
Great supporting cast.
Kate Hudson and Jessica Alba are good and gutsy.
Long live Bill Pullman!

Afflec lures us into forgetting all but his character.
The whole film comes together so tightly we don't realize we're in it until it's over.
Then we're left with having been taken for a pretty dark and provocative ride.

It is a difficult but excellent film.
