Star Trek, it’s not just for geeks anymore. Well, actually, that’s a little difficult for me to say since I am a geek. But, Oh My Gosh!
What I Liked: Pretty much everything! I was initially drawn to this movie by the cast and they did not disappoint. Read more

Put in some slow motion, a lot of light flares, and a circular dolly track shot and Michael Bay thinks you’ve got a movie. Add some performance footage of a rock band and I admit it would make a good music video. Maybe Bay should stick to that. Read more

Expectations have a lot to do with how much I (and most people) enjoy a movie. If your expectations are too high, it’s hard for a movie to live up to them. On the other hand, if your expectations are low, the movie may benefit from that. Such was the case with Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. Read more

Or, How I Became Wolverine. Or, What the X-Men Did Before Charles Xavier. Or, … You get the point. I suppose if I were a 25-year-old male who had grown up reading about the spandex clad Wolverine this movie would have thrilled me.

Finally! Back in a theater after being thwarted by my schedule, my budget, & the lack of movies I actually want to see being released. State of Play wasn’t really high on my must list but it has a great cast so The Flick Chicks gave it a look-see. Read more

In honor of April 15th, I’m posting this review of Stranger than Fiction. I’ve not viewed it recently but I own it & it’s one of my favorites. If you’ve already completed your mad dash to the post office, swing by the video store & pick up a copy. Or come by my apartment & borrow mine. I’ll be watching Lost. Sshhh. No talking. Read more

I have loved the television version of The Scarlet Pimpernel since high school. It came out 27 years ago. And I am officially old.
What I Liked: This is romance at its best. Intrigue, adventure, agonizing obstacles. There are moments in the story when you want to yell at the screen, “Turn around!” or “Tell him!” Sigh. Read more

Having seen Good Night and Good Luck on my RDJ list, I decided to add some George Clooney movies to my queue. And this Oscar nominated thriller was next.
What I Liked: Quite a lot. This is an intelligent, smooth thriller. The story quietly moves along letting the tension rumble beneath the surface. Read more
