9.0 Animal Kingdom

…what I've been up to, more or less…

9.5 Heroes Incorporated

Wow! We had 5 hours of fun on Father’s Day with my gift of Heroes Incorporated! The game is fantastic – it’s got a solid foundation – chase down crime in city streets and roll the dice to beat it – bent by lots of juicy exceptions. There are superhero special...
9.0 Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

The Deathly Hallows was a big hit with us, and Wren and Savannah perfected their butterbeer recipe and shared with us all to celebrate! :-) ...
7.5 The Life of David Gale / 12 Angry Men

Old and new commentaries on capital punishment. Neither one has any final answers, of course, but at least they both attempt to provoke a few questions… ...
9.0 Run Lola Run

Great pacing backed up by a nice time-sliced plot. Exhilirating! “What’s in the bag?” ...
9.0 Battlestar Galactica

Just finished watching the Battlestar Galactica miniseries (read: pilot) and season 1. Good fun! I fell in love with episode 5 and did not like 10, other than that it was solid military-centered space sci-fi. I even broke out Descent yesterday in inspiration! Descent 3 still rocks to this day. ...

9.5 Modern Family

Arrested Development proved that the human brain enjoys tracking a dozen unique and hilarious characters simultaneously, and Modern Family continues that tradition in style. And they have a fun dad, a sexy mom, and troublemaking kids, just like us! ha! ...
9.0 Crimes and Misdemeanors

We seem to watch a Woody Allen movie every other week or so, and almost always love them – OK, we recently fell asleep on a late late night of watching “Life and Death” but fortunately woke up in time to nearly vomit with laughter at the ending scene (no spoilers allowed, sorry). ...

9.0 Animal Kingdom

Animal Kingdom

A gritty web of tension from start to finish, half this film is shot in slomo, with gorgeous camera work, and it crackles. How do you survive hopeless situations with your morality intact? Bits of Trainspotting and Guy Ritchie are the icing.
