I have a feeling that because of some of the subject matter, this one flew way under the radar. So unfortunate, because it was hilarious. The press and social media and everybody and their mother, it seemed, made such a big deal over Bridesmaids and yet a movie like this hardly makes a peep. The […]

Review: Save the Date
Is it just me, or did no one hear about this movie? Since I’m not in a major release metropolis (San Francisco, New York, Chicago, LA, etc.), I miss a good number of indie movies because they don’t come to theaters here in Denver, or, they’re only there for a week or they only play […]
Review: The Five-Year Engagement
This was such a sweet movie. We all know I love Jason Segel, but I’m a big Emily Blunt fan too, so this was kind of a no-brainer. The premise seems a little ridiculous, and the movie does get lost at times during the five year setting. Tom (Segel) proposes to Violet (Blunt) right at […]

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 […]
