Movie and DVD reviews
‘Haywire’ is a pretty good showcase for MMA fighter Gina Carano, who may not be the best actress out there, but could certainly punch you in the face.
‘In the Land of Blood and Honey’ is the writing and directing debut of Angelina Jolie about a bizarre love story set against the Bosnian War.
‘Joyful Noise’ may be simplistic in its storytelling, but the performances and the music more than make up for any of the script’s shortcomings.
I think it’s rather a good trick to be able to enter a film you don’t want to see and come out a fan of it at its conclusion. Such was the case with this Matt Damon vehicle.
The trailers might lead you to believe that ‘War Horse’ is the feel good movie of the holidays, but I walked out feeling anything but good.
‘The Artist’ may or may not be as great as some have said, but there’s no question it’s an amazing film of happiness and drama.
Director Cameron Crowe’s based-on-a-true-story movie ‘We Bought a Zoo’ is ridiculously sentimental and somehow not realistic at all.
