Film Review: ‘Murder on the Orient Express’ Starring Kenneth Branagh, Penélope Cruz, Willem Dafoe

Posted: November 10, 2017 at 8:24 am   /   Movie Reviews

“I see the world as it should be.” And with that, a simple explanation for how Hercule (pronounced Air-kyool) Poirot is able to deduce mysteries so easily. He’s weathered by age, old enough to not be fooled through naivete, yet idealistic that he remains optimistic, perhaps even yearning for a world without the crimes he’s […]

Review: ‘The Great Wall’ Starring Matt Damon, Pedro Pascal, Willem Dafoe

Posted: February 16, 2017 at 7:00 pm   /   Movie Reviews

Avoid this wall if at all possible. Matt Damon’s latest film, The Great Wall, may have the look and feel of a Hollywood blockbuster. It cost a reported $150 million to make, but take it from me, the actor’s latest is a dud. It’s a shame the film is not exciting or interesting, as it […]

Posted: March 20, 2014 at 9:36 pm   /   Film, Local

Ain’t it grand? Wes Anderson has a toy box. And in this toy box, Anderson has a camera – some might find it frustrating, while others find it magical – that frames almost every scene perfectly symmetrically. Sometimes this camera, from a fixed spot, will rotate left or right 90°, even 180° (and once in […]

Daybreakers

Posted: January 9, 2010 at 4:27 pm   /   Local, Movie Reviews

With the current glut of vampire movies it is easy to miss a film like Daybreakers. It doesn’t romanticize the creatures that until recently were considered monsters, but it does give them a bit of humanity. It surely isn’t a film that is aimed at the Twilight crowd, and with an January release it doesn’t […]

Antichrist

Posted: October 23, 2009 at 2:54 pm   /   Local, Movie Reviews

Lars Von Trier’s latest film is among the most disturbing things I have seen put to film. It is hard to describe the things that occur in the film without piquing someone’s interest. No matter how beautifully filmed and acted it is, I can’t imagine anyone wanting to watch this film. If you could sit […]
