True Grit – Coen brother style

I absolutely love the Coen brothers, so I get excited about every movie they do, but how can you not be excited about True Grit? Allegedly, this is a much closer adaptation of the Charles Portis novel, then that of the 1969 John Wayne movie. The question you now have to ask: Is Jeff Bridges [...]

Relish the journey

That’s you, drops of water. And you’re on top of the mountain. A success. But one day you start sliding down the mountain and you think, “Wait a minute. I’m a mountain top water drop. I don’t belong down in this valley, in this river, in this low dark ocean with all these drops of [...]

Dinner with Schmucks, Machete, and The Town

Dinner with Schmucks

I saw this movie months ago, but just wasn’t sure what to say about it. It was just so, so. I would be curious to see the original French film this was based on, I am guessing it would be a different humor all together. I had high expectations and it did not [...]

Maybe we will finally have the answer if [...]

Dancing at the Movies

My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done

When I hear that David Lynch and Werner Herzog have teamed up on a film I get excited. In fact it doesn’t matter what the film is about, it could be a documentary about worms and I would want to see it. However, of course its more compelling than that – the plot apparently goes [...]

The Expendables and The Other Guys

The Expendables

As always, expectations are the biggest factor in how much you enjoy movie. I went in to Expendables with low expectations and found myself enjoying the movie right away. It is a a very violent and bloody film, but even thought the action was well-delivered, it was the non-action dialogue scenes that were surprisingly [...]
