Melancholia is a movie that I thought I would recommend on artistic merits alone. The newest Lars von Trier film that made waves at Sundance with an acting award for Kirsten Dunst’s portrayal of a manically depressed woman in the midst of planetary collision, was also one of the most critically acclaimed movies of 2011.

New Movie Review: The Lorax

March 18, 2012 | No Comments

The Lorax is exactly the movie you’d expect it to be. A fantasy fairy tale about fluffy pink trees, starring some of the cutest characters to hit the big screen.

DVD Review: Real Steel

February 18, 2012 | No Comments

Real Steel is Rocky for the pre-teen Power Rangers crowd. It’s Warrior with CGI, human powered robots, grappling one another in the ring. It’s cheesy, overly emotional, and downright ridiculous. Most importantly, it’s proof that Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine money has completely ran out. Real Steel is an impressive feat in computer generated animation. Outside of [...]
