Blu-Tuesday: 1/8 A Trio of Great Films

Moon, The Hurt Locker, and The Brothers Bloom are all out today to purchase and I can recommend all of them with ease. Moon is in my top ten of 09, where on that list I will still keep secret till my 09 review come Oscar time, and features one of, if not the best […]

Gomorrah

This Italian mob movie isn’t as flashy or romanticized as many American gangster pictures are, but the films gritty and real life feel give the picture an extra weight and tension that you never know what is going to happen. Opening with a set of hits that sets off a civil war among gangs, we […]

The Messenger

Oren Moverman’s The Messenger is a great honest look into the side of war we rarely see, the deceased family dealing with receiving the news of the passing, and the results are a film filled with sadness, anger, and humor surrounding this delicate and vulnerable situation.

Nick Twisp is your average teenage boy, without a girl, enthralled with […]

A Single Man

A Single Man is a career defining performance from Colin Firth and one of the strongest, most confident, and beautiful directorial debuts I can recall from Tom Ford. The film’s theme touch on everything from loss, death, love, friendship, and purpose in life and never feels forced, always natural and honest discussions on the subjects.  […]

Nine

Nine is Rob Marshall’s return to musicals and the result is a bit unexpected but full of quality performances and entertaining musical numbers that entertain nearly from start to finish. The film picks up ten days prior to the start date of Guido Contini’s latest and ninth film and the stars, the costumes, the sets […]
