Review: Guy Richie’s ‘King Arthur: Legend of the Sword’ Is a Boring Mess
Hopefully this franchise goes back to the nothingness from whence it came. I never thought I would say that I longed for the 2004 film King Arthur, starring Clive Owen and Keira Knightley. Yet that’s exactly how I felt as I tried to stay awake through the boring, unfunny, and just plain joyless King Arthur […]

Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Hanna
Joe Wright’s latest, Hanna, is an assassin picture on the surface but at its heart is a film of self discovery after being trapped in isolation your whole life.

The Decade’s Best – Munich (2005)
Steven Spielberg continued his successful run of historical period pieces with this spy/thriller of sorts following the Israeli reaction to 1972 Munich Olympic hostage massacre that not only captures the tension of assassination, but perfectly conveys the right vs. wrong of the Israel/Palestine conflict. The film opens amid a flashback that we will re-visit throughout […]
The Time Traveler’s Wife
This adaptation of Audrey Niffenegger’s novel of the same name is a tad confused narrative full of intriguing sci-fi ideas that slowly comes together by the end. Henry is a time traveler. Disappearing into time at random, unable to take his clothes or any object with him, running around naked can get him into sticky […]
