Review: “No Strings Attached” Starring Natalie Portman, Ashton Kutcher

Posted: January 21, 2011 at 9:45 am   /   Local, Tom O'Keefe Movie Reviews

Posted: December 21, 2010 at 11:49 am   /   Film, Local

I usually become numb to these types of lists pretty quick.  I would venture to guess around 5 out of 10 films on everybody’s list is the same.  I’m not saying it’s bad, it just gets monotonous.  Well I haven’t read too many lists yet this year, and I think Roger Ebert is well respected […]
