Movie Review: ‘August: Osage County’ Starring Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Ewan McGregor

Posted: January 10, 2014 at 2:21 pm   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

Based on the 2008 Pulitzer Prize-winning play, August: Osage County attempts to translate the dark comedy from the stage to the big screen. Packed with an A-list cast, you certainly can’t make the argument that they didn’t get enough star power. Tracy Letts, the award-winning author of the play was even responsible for the screenplay. […]

Movie Review: ‘Mirror Mirror’ Starring Lily Collins, Julia Roberts

Posted: March 30, 2012 at 8:33 am   /   Featured, Local, Tom O'Keefe Movie Reviews

What to make of Mirror Mirror? The first of two Snow White films this year (the downside of public domain properties), it takes what appears to be a decidedly lighter approach than its doppelgänger Snow White and the Huntsman. (That one stars Twilight’s Kristen Stewart, so I predict it will involve sulking.) For now, we […]

Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Eat Pray Love

Posted: August 13, 2010 at 1:51 am   /   Another Take From Zac, Local

Eat Pray Love is a dull and poorly executed picture that meanders, is no where near as good as it thinks it is, and fails to engage or fill us with emotion almost every step of the way. Liz Gilbert isn’t happy in life and when she decides she can’t take it any more she […]

Eat Pray Love

Posted: August 13, 2010 at 1:46 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

While falling asleep when reading is usually considered acceptable with a book, it isn’t exactly the affect you want your movie to have on the audience. Unfortunately, this is that type of movie. Liz Gilbert (Julia Roberts) […]
