Michael Jackson’s This Is It (2009)
  When I heard that they were making a movie of rehearsal footage from the This Is It, I thought that it was too soon. I am a Michael Jackson fans since “Thriller”. I know the dance moves off most of his videos. When Michael said that he would have his last hurrah in England, I was bummed out. He dies and all of this unnecessary attention descending upon him. I thought this was a cash grab. This film is a reminder of how Michael Jackson affected our lives. The movie starts with the back... Read Full Story

Pirate Radio (2009)
To all our listeners, this is what I have to say – God bless you all. And as for you bastards in charge, don’t dream it’s over. Years will come, years will go, and politicians will do fuck all to make the world a better place. But all over the world, young men and young women will always dream dreams and put those dreams into song. Nothing important dies tonight, just a few ugly guys on a crappy ship.

Precious (2009)
precious
My name is Clareece Precious Jones. I want to be on the cover of a magazine. I wish a had a light-skinned boyfriend with good hair. But first I want to be in one of those BET videos. – Clareece “Precious” Jones When I saw the trailer Precious for on Oprah, I teared up. That’s rare for me to cry looking at a trailer. The story of Clareece “Precious” Jones struck as a cord with me so deep that I had to catch the movie opening weekend. My expectations were high for the mov... Read Full Story
An Education (2009)
If people die the moment that they graduate, then surely it’s the things we do beforehand that count. – Jenny When I posted the trailer for An Education a couple of months ago, I eagerly anticipated this movie. I mentioned on my Oscar Watchers group when I posted the release dates of film that I was so excited that I could pee. This movie has a Metacritic score of 85. It’s a fantastical account of a girl that is not having an academic education, but an education of life. Newcome... Read Full Story
The Virgin Suicides (1999)
So much has been said about the girls over the years. But we have never found an answer. It didn’t matter in the end how old they had been, or that they were girls… but only that we had loved them… and that they hadn’t heard us calling… still do not hear us calling them from out of those rooms… where they went to be alone for all time… and where we will never find the pieces to put them back together. – Narrator Sofia Coppola’s feature film de...

Crank (2006)
Does it look like I got cunt written on my head? Who do you think you are fucking with? – Chev Chelios The high intensity action movie Crank was never my kind of movie. I am the big action anti-hero movie kind of guy. Directors Neveldine/Taylor has a reputation of having a buffed anti-hero kicking ass and taking names with jump cuts, thumping music and saturated lens. It feels like combination between Danny Boyle, Tony Scott and Renny Harlin. That may not end up as a good thing. Chev... Read Full Story
Vampyr (1932)
I probably wouldn’t ever see Carl Dreyer’s Vampyr if it wasn’t for The 1001 Movies You Must See that I recently joined. This sucker was hard to find, but I managed to find the Criterion Edition of this classic vampire tale. I made the same mistake again by watching a semi-silent movie at night. I dozed. Allan Gray (Julian West) religiously studies of the occult, devil worshiping and vampires lore. He becomes so obsessed that he could not distinguish between real and the supernatural. One nig...
