This is yet another film that received quite a bit of praise. Whenever this happens I feel bad for the film because it now has a lot more to live up to, but I never let expectation cloud my judgment. In this case I was delighted while watching this film, despite it being mostly formulaic.…
Another year, and another season of this show ends. Orange Is The New Black was never among my favorite Netflix shows. The first season came close, but I was not enamored with the second season. I still liked it, but something about it did not quite resonate with me. Now with the third season, this…
It has been a while since Pixar has made a film that I truly loved. Ever since Toy Story 3, I feel as though the company went a little downhill. They reached rock bottom with Cars 2, and both Brave and Monster’s University (while good) were not among their best films. However, I am so…
I honestly cannot believe how this show is still on the air (technically now on the web). It is definitely one of my favorite comedies, and it is impressive how fresh it has remained after 6 seasons. Even though season 4 was not up to the standards associated with this show, it was not bad…
Before I begin viewing and reviewing films that are being considered for an Oscar, I want to get my review of The Interview out of the way. First of all, I like Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg. The two of them helm this film, and unfortunately they cannot create as film that is as good…
I am a big fan of 21 Jump Street. I distinctly remember seeing it in theaters and having a great time. It was one of my best movie theater experiences. I was not too thrilled when they announced a sequel, but the trailers had me convinced that they would do a good job. After seeing…
I actually thought Ted was a pretty good movie. It was consistently funny, and even had some heart. I like movies set during the Wild West, so I was fairly excited for his newest movie. I am sad to say that the film is quite the disappointment. It is too long, it is not funny…
I love Community. It is one of my favorite shows on television, and definitely one of the funniest. I think it’s a shame that every year there is a struggle for it’s renewal. Prior to Season 4, the creator (Dan Harmon) left the show. I thought Season 4 was alright, but it was not as…
