I have been in love with Catherine Zeta-Jones since before I (or anyone else) knew who she was! I first saw her in The Phantom when I was about 8 and she was so beautiful, bad girl or not, that I liked her instantly. Then she really got popular with The Mask of Zorro, and […]

Review: Take Me Home Tonight
This one looks completely stupid in the previews, but this was probably one of my favorites that I’ve seen lately! I am a secret Topher Grace admirer, and I think Anna Faris and I would be best friends if we knew each other because we both have a tendency toward profanity and being somewhat unladylike. […]
Review: I Love You Phillip Morris
I’m always up for Ewan McGregor, but this was kind of a strange film. Jim Carrey leveled out of his wild antics is one thing, but him and Ewan McGregor playing gay men who fall in love while in prison? And it’s based on a true story? I was pleasantly surprised. Their relationship is actually […]
Review: The Amateurs
I was a little wary when I first read what this movie was supposed to be about, but who can say no to the Dude? Jeff Bridges is a loser who’s spent his life trying and failing at a dozen different enterprises. He finally hits on a million dollar idea–he’ll make a porno. Partnering up […]
Review: The Last Word
I was surprised by this film when Netflix recommended it. Partly because I’d never heard of it, and partly because the premise is so unusual. I think Netflix has a hard time suggesting things for me because my tastes and interests are so diverse, but this one is one of the ones I really enjoyed […]
Review: Serious Moonlight
I was even more disappointed with this movie than I thought I’d be. On the plus side, it has awesome actors, good outlook for a director, and a great writer, but it just was terrible. Not funny, too predictable, and completely unbelievable. Meg Ryan and Timothy Hutton (reunited after all these years since French Kiss!) […]
Review: Heartbreaker (L’arnacoeur)
This is a foreign film, French, with a few people that probably seem familiar, but unless you’re a big fan of French foreign film, probably aren’t actually people you know. I saw the preview for this on a DVD a while back, though I don’t remember which now, and it immediatley intrigued me. It looked […]
Review: The Conspirator
I’ve had the chance to catch up with my Netflix queue lately, so I’ll be posting reviews of a bunch of movies, recent, and not that recent, that I’ve seen for the first time. These posts will be in addition to the spring line-up of television recaps. Hope you get something out of them 🙂 […]
Tarantino Unchained: Review
The big show. The one we’ve been waiting for. Quentin Tarantino makes a Western. Fuck. Yes. I finally saw this with my niece yesterday and was blown away. I’ve been a Tarantino fan since I saw Pulp Fiction almost ten years ago (I was six when it came out, so give me a break). In […]
Family First: A Review of Conviction
Since I’m too burned out from not sleeping well for the past 3 days, I’ll catch up with Revenge and 666 Park Avenue tomorrow. For now, enjoy a movie review: Conviction I remember the previews when this one came out. I am a huge Sam Rockwell fan, so I was ready to see it on […]
