Inception

Inception...

Many who have seen Christopher Nolan’s latest mind-bending thriller Inception think they have it figured out. Poor manys. You are all wrong. Hush now….just because I know the secret and you don’t doesn’t mean that I’m smarter than you. It just means...
Shutter Island

Shutter Island...

  I really want to not like Leonardo Dicaprio but he makes it difficult when he is awesome in just about every one of his damn movies. Why does he have to be such good with the acting? I might ask YOU the same question. Shutter Island was the best movie I’ve seen so far in...
Crazy Heart

Whip It

Whip It...

Bliss (Ellen Page) is just a small town girl living in a lonely world (aka fictional town of Bodeen, Texas) where she is reluctantly following in her mom’s footsteps as a beauty pageant contestant.  Bliss finds her ticket to freedom after she and best friend Pash (Alia Shawkat)...
Funny People

Funny People...

The sad thing about Funny People is that, once again, Adam Sandler will probably get little appreciation for his acting chops.  His dramatic ability got him a Golden Globe nomination for Punch-Drunk Love, but Mr. Oscar turned a blind eye.  Then came his heart-breaking performance...
