I feel like it’s my duty to review Rails & Ties as soon as possible so that no one sees a poster or trailer and thinks to themselves “Oh, I bet that Clint Eastwood’s daughter can make a decent movie with Kevin Bacon and Marcia Gay Harden. Besides, she seemed so charming and talented in that [...]
I’ve been meaning to see Proof for a while because way back in the day I saw the play on Broadway (starring Jennifer Jason Leigh) and I remember liking it. Of course I could have been blinded by the glamour of seeing a play/celebrity on Broadway since I was like 17 at the time. Anyway.
Anthony Hopkins [...]
La Piscine: En francais. Nudité. Sexe. Meurtre. Alain Delon. Amusement pour la famille entière.
Joy House: In English. More Alain Delon. Jane Fonda is crazy and super horny. Some seriously funny parts.
Jane Fonda to Alain Delon: I like you cause you’re poor! I’m poor too!
So, it might be a tiny bit of a stretch to connect this LA Times article by my new favorite person Carina Chocano to my recent viewing of Shopgirl, since it’s not a comedy and does center around a woman, but the article really forced me to reconsider my feelings about the movie. I watched [...]
My favorite parts of The Matador were the intertitles. That’s not to say that it wasn’t a totally decent movie, but I just really liked the titles! They were just big block letters in bright colors over dim cityscapes that said MANILA or MEXICO CITY and I thought they were really hot. I like the [...]
In Walking Tall, The Rock kicks ass with a huge stick in order to rescue his hometown from corruption and crystal meth. And that fugly girl from Jericho shoots people while wearing just jeans and a bra. And Johnny Knoxville (I know, The Rock AND Johnny Knoxville in one movie…) I think I really missed [...]
Top Ten Things that pissed me off about the screening of this I went to at Grauman’s
10. It started late.
9. The Netflix Original Content chick who introduced it and seemed like she had never held a microphone. Ok, I should cut her slack because she was probably really nervous. It was annoying though.
8. The girl [...]
So, I love Johnny Knoxville and was completely excited to watch this movie called Daltry Calhoun on TV – starring JK himself alongside Elizabeth Banks (that funny slutty girl from The 40 Year Old Virgin, and the secretary in Spider Man) and Juliette “Licks Frontwoman” Lewis. I mean, if I had really had my wits about me, I [...]
Yay Cate Blanchett!
Yay pretty costumes! (textile porn?)
Yay Clive Owen!
Boo misogyny! (e.g., “I’m the queen of fucking England and I’m going to totally lose my shit if I don’t get laid! Pick me, Clive Owen! Choose me! Either fuck me or die in the Spanish Armada because even though I am totally awesome and hot and [...]
Here’s my suggestion if you want to see We Own the Night:
Pay for another movie but get there early and watch the first 90 seconds of this one. There’s a hot scene between Eva Mendes & Joaquin Phoenix. (Don’t worry, Eva Mendes doesn’t really talk during this part).
Then go see some other, better movie (Michael [...]
