…what I've been up to, more or less…

9.0 Crash

This movie is a cartoon caricature of racism, and for the first 15 minutes I didn’t get it. Example after example of unresolved racist behavior had me squirming in my seat thinking “arty movie designed to make you uncomfortable”. But c’mon, this won an Academy Award, it...
9.5 Death Cab For Cutie: Soul Meets Body

Andrea fell in love with Franz Ferdinand after seeing them on SNL – the fact that they’re Scottish didn’t hurt their chances any – and she got me hooked. We went to see them last night. They rock the house, capital L-O-U-D. Totally contagious energy. The drummer and bass...
8.5 The Banger Sisters

You could have probably heard me groan when I first heard the premise for this movie – about two women in midlife, one who never “grew up” and one who did a 180, rejecting her wild past. But they pulled it off with style (and lots of great lines from Goldie, she rocked :> ). And...
9.0 Rocknrolla OST

I dropped this movie on my iPhone, and it was definitely worth a revisit. The soundtrack alone is great...
9.5 RockNRolla

1080p lookin’ good. Guy Ritchie has never failed me (sorry Madonna). Not sure where he finds his motley crew of supporting actors but I bet his house parties rival his best scenes. Our favorite part is that he focuses on the wit and leaves most of the gratuitousness for other...
9.0 Down With Love

Yeah, it’s a romantic comedy, but it has teeth. Lots of ‘em. And lots of kitchy nods to the great 50′s classics like The Seven Year Itch. Sleeper of the...
8.5 David Sedaris – When You Are Engulfed In Flames

A Kurt Vonnegut for the short-attention-span generation. He always writes about the most dysfunctional details of the members of his family, I would hate to be one of them – but sometimes I feel like maybe I am. :P And he started off skewering me with horror stories of my most extreme...
9.0 Pirates of the Carribean

Ahoy! You there! Go see this, ya scurvey-riddled scum, ya! It was an awesome good time – Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom both ripped it up, big...
