Ghost in the Shell: Visually, The Most Amazing Movie of The Year [Review]
Another Live Action remake of an animated classic. I don’t remember the original anime very well - I haven’t seen it since the late 90’s and anime wasn’t quite as popular as it is now. (That’s right - I liked it before it was cool. I was a movie hipster; how times...

When was the last time you went to the movies and left the theater feeling sick, sad, and shocked? Raw left a mark on me that I don't think is going to go away anytime soon. It is one of the most original, bizarre, and beautiful coming of age movies in recent memory....
Life: There are Scenes That Rival The First Time We Saw The Chest Burster [Review]
I wasn’t quite sure about Life. It was either this or Power Rangers. I’d seen the trailer for both, couldn’t decide, and since I heard Life was better, I went to that. Especially when I saw Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds were both in there. But alas no...
Life: A Familiar, Yet Thrilling Space Movie With A Great Cast [Review]

Power Rangers: Just Enough Nostalgia to Go Go See this Movie [Review]

Beauty and the Beast: Staggeringly Beautiful, They Kept The Best & Fixed The Rest [Review]

The original Beauty and the Beast, the 1991 animated version, is one of the five best animated movies of all-time; it was so good that it became the first ever animated movie to be nominated for Best Picture by the Academy Awards. With movie studios going through...
