Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated! It's been a crazy summer, but I am back. I have been slack in staying on top of your motion picture enjoyment and I apologize if you've suffered through a terrible movie or wasted your money due to my negligence. So...enough of that. Before you rent another movie, check out these quick reviews!
Joe
This went straight to DVD for a reason. With Tye Sheridan in a supporting role and a trailer that looked compelling, I had high hopes for this film. There are some intense moments in the film, but it is so slow and meandering in its pacing, it fails to really grab hold. What a shame! Strong potential, but sad to say it falls flat.
Non-Stop
Looking for a action-packed movie to enjoy on a Friday night? This could be your ticket! Typical Liam Neeson thriller. Don't expect an Academy Award winner, but it's quite entertaining.
Enemy
Don't waste your time or your money. You can read several reviews from "educated" critics about how this film is a thoughtful metaphor of living under communism and crap like that. Bottom line for real people...this movie is dumb. I hate that I wasted 90 minutes of my life.
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Force yourself to sit through the first 20 minutes and then enjoy! Seriously...the first 20 minutes are pretty bad, but it gets much better. Good message from a good movie.
Bad Words
Though it has its moments, this was a bust at the box office and probably for good reason It simply doesn't pack the comedy punch that many of Bateman's recent exploits have. Don't get me wrong. Jason Bateman is his typical self and I found myself laughing out loud several times. This just isn't as funny as Horrible Bosses or Identity Thief, If you're in the mood for something different from Bateman, check out Disconnect. It's really good!
