Another Take By Zac: TV Review: The Walking Dead: 1.5: Wildfire & 1.6: TS-19
I know, I know! “It’s been over a week since the finale and three weeks since your last review; what the hell!” Well I will just blame Thanksgiving, deal? Any who, the first season has ended for the Walking Dead and while I enjoyed it I hope that the second season allows them to flesh […]
Another Take By Zac: Film Review: The Tourist
The Tourist takes its two super stars, Depp and Jolie, and uses them effectively to craft a somewhat odd amalgamation of genres that all feel a bit lite, yet still work. Jolie plays Elise, a Brit roaming Paris who is under surveillance constantly by the British governments with the hope that her wanted beau will […]
Another Take By Zac: TV Review: The Walking Dead 1.4: Vatos
Vatos, The Walking Dead’s fourth episode, sees the return of zombie action and a large chunk of the cast won’t be back for week 5. The Atlanta plot line didn’t really move that much forward this week other than the discovery of a new batch of survivors in a nursing home being protected by a […]
Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Tangled

Having said that, there is still room for improvement in Tangled but as it stands it is still a very entertaining and attractive […]
Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Love and Other Drugs
Love and Other Drugs is the latest from Ed Zwick and features a couple of great lead performances in a story that does a lot of things well but has a hard time finding a narrative through line. Zwick is a history buff and likes to blend fiction with facts and this is another example […]
Another Take By Zac: Film Review: 127 Hours
127 Hours is an intense and inventive telling of Aron Ralston’s harrowing true story that Danny Boyle makes the most out of a rather limited film experience. Aron Ralston’s story is an unbelievable tale from the early 2000’s in which this adventurous mountain biker, hiker, outdoor kid is out on a hike when his arm […]
Another Take By Zac: TV Review: The Walking Dead 1.3 Tell It To The Frogs
The third entry into the series is the least zombie filled episode yet, and while that was a tad disappointing, focusing on the humans was almost just as engaging and compelling as the rest of the series. Thankfully we find out, and maybe this was expressed last week and I just missed it, that the […]
