Here I will store all my Film reviews.
I wish I saw this film before I made my top 10 of 2014. This film would have definitely topped my list. This film just completely took my breath away, unlike any other film has been able to do all year. This is a film that tackles a relatively simple premise, but adds many layers…
Wow, what an experience. When I first saw the trailer for this film, I thought it looked fairly good. There was certainly a bit of weirdness in the trailer, but when I heard the film was edited to look like it was shot in one take, I was instantly hooked. I love long takes, and…
Well, it is finally over. I remember seeing the first teaser for the very first time, and feeling overwhelmed. I loved the original Lord of the Rings Trilogy, and while The Hobbit Trilogy is not nearly as good, it does have some great moments. I see reviews on this final installment somewhat mixed, and I…
This film was one of my most anticipated for the year. I love Christopher Nolan, and while I do no think he is a perfect director, he never fails to create an enjoyable piece of cinema. I decided to watch only the first trailer, and nothing more. I did not want to know too much…
If I chose one word to describe my experience after this film, it would be: disturbed. This film reaffirms that Jake Gyllenhaal is one of Hollywoods’ best working actors today. Not only that, but this is director Dan Gilroy’s first film. I find that extremely impressive, and cannot help but wonder where he will go…
There is one word that can perfectly describe this film: Fun. This is the most fun I have had in the theater in a long time. This film may not be a fantastic piece of cinema, but it is a fantastic action flick. I honestly had very low expectations going into this film, but it…
I would say that this is one of the better war films since Saving Private Ryan. In some ways, I like this film more than Saving Private Ryan just because it offers a different perspective on war. This is a film that had a very sound plot, but a somewhat disappointing third act. War, War…
David Fincher is one of the best working directors in Hollywood right now. I cannot think of a movie of his that I did not like. He continually creates great films that offer a nice blend of entertainment and compelling cinema. Gone Girl is no exception, while I do not think it is my favorite…
This is possibly my last film review for the summer, and it is ending on a really low note. I grew up with the Ninja Turtles, and even watch the new show on Nickelodeon. I think the animated shows are mostly great, and I even enjoyed the films (although I have not seen the third…
I first heard about this film in March. The concept of filming someone for 12 years was fantastic, and the trailer led me to believe that this would be an unbelievable film. Unfortunately for a few weeks the film was only released in limited theaters. There has been a lot of hype building up from…
