It's Kind of a Funny Story

I came into this movie with some mixed feelings. Some people I know loved it while others hated it and this film really fell off the radar after being the theaters for a little while in 2010. For me, It's Kind of a Funny Story is not perfect but it does what it needs and I found it to be a a sweet and accurate story.Based on a novel, the film follows a stressed teen named Craig (Keir Gilchrist) who checks...

Life of Pi

Life of Pi is an Ang Lee film. I remember when Lee made one of the early Hulk films which while flawed is a film I liked as a kid, and still do. Ang Lee is now a famous director and unfortunately I have missed most his films because I was too young to see them. His new film, Life of Pi is a bit unlike the Hulk movie in that there is really nothing not to like here. It is a film that...

Not only...

Presidential movies

I am not a real big political guy and a frankly I find politics to be more annoying than anything. As time goes by though, I do find more political stuff that I can relate to and I have started to lean towards one party over the last year. As always though, I am more interested in the movie side of politics and as Election Day approaches, here are my top...
