DOCUMEN:TUESDAY – “Dear Zachary”
NOTE: No trailer today because it offers mild spoilers I would strongly suggest avoiding. First and foremost, if you are depressed or hate crying, run like hell from this film. If you enjoy a good cry and you obsess over sociology, look no further. ”Dear Zachary” is an intensely unique story from the perspective of [...]
Let’s Jump Right In It’s Monday – “Killing Bono”
So happy to finally stray away from the normal magnet film, but once again we’re stuck on the topic of Misfits. Honestly, I’m not sure who reads any of this to begin with so I don’t know why I’m so apologetic. But if you read this blog at all, you should be ecstatic to hear more Misfits [...]
Just another Time Traveling Manic Monday – “Timecrimes”
“Timecrimes” is a movie I liked that I’m having a hard time describing. It’s not a typical drama because the protagonists and antagonists are less traditional, sometimes they are one and the same, and in other cases your enemy is just time. But not like the way Justin Timberlake had to face time in “in [...]
Skins Series 6 on Netflix
I still can’t find it in myself to hate this show. It may be that I have a couple friends who share in the drama with me, but for the life of me, the 13-year-old version of myself that loved “Degrassi” cannot put down Skins; especially with the Netflix Instant Queue release of the most [...]
Now it’s on Netflix – “Goon”
Couldn’t be happier to know that this treasure of a film moved to Netflix instant. Before you get your panties in a twist, let’s establish a couple of things. Yes I am aware this is Sean William Scott. Yes I am also aware that this film is Canadian. And three… it’s a MAGNET production, which [...]
London Boulevard- Chatter Approved
How is it that I stumble upon movies from people I like, directors/writers I like without following the proper paper trail? It would have been so easy for me to type Writer/Director William Monahan’s name into the interwebs, and more specifically the IMDB search bar, to find “London Boulevard.” I could have been enjoying this [...]
New Waterford Girl
I don’t want to say a lot about this movie (but will probably end up writing 3 paragraphs), except that I did like it, and that “Liane Balaban’s” character, ‘Mooney’ Channels a little bit of Natalie Portman in and, in fact, seems to be very Portman-esque overall. is essentially a ‘coming-of-age’ movie that happens in [...]
Must Be Good It’s Monday – “Spork”
I honestly dont’ even know how to review this movie. I’m not sure that there’s anything else like it. In fact… there is nothing else like this film. This is the definition of Independent film done right. What feels like a dark comedy manages to play by the rules of traditional blockbuster hits with a [...]
Fantastic Foreign Friday – “Battle Royale”
Oh man… this movie is so cool. It’s on Netflix Watch Instantly… It’s like “The Hunger Games” but way more intense. It’s not too insane that normal people can’t watch it. To put it plainly, my wife who doesn’t care much for anything I like, especially what she calls “the subtitle genre”. stopped what she [...]
DOCUMEN:TUESDAY – “Resurrect Dead”
Yes! So pumped. It’s not often that I get to share a great documentary on this blog. More often then not I come across “food”, “education”, or “environment”. At a certain point you can only drive the point so far. Everything is broken and everyone is to blame. And if I see one more poster [...]
